Like anywhere, there is always going to be some difference - I'm sure we share some different opinions. That said the DI as an organization is a thinly disguised veil of science plastered over creationism.

That's interesting that you know him, at least probably better than most. That "debate" with Professor Dave was not at all a good look for Dr. Tour. I can accept someone being passionate about their subject, but his behaviour was way over the top.

"MR. FARINA! MR. FARINA!" Dr. Tour seems a bit deranged at times. Anyway, the question posed to him is about evolution, not abiogenesis, so it's essentially a dodge.

This may ;ead to confusion in the terms of intelligent design (ID) and theistic evolution (TE). I am fairly confident that those that hold to a TE position do not align themselves with the ID position. The ID position is generally associated with people from the Discovery Institute, like Dr's Berlinski, Behe, and Tour, among others. However, this organization is simply a creationist organization in disguise.

I thought it was 13. Guys a really weird dude. Being a South African raised in apartheid explains a lot of his ideas.

Your are a complete joke to ask for that, but I'll do it for the benefit of others here I actually respect. https://nationalpost.com/news/world/israel-middle-east/we-will-own-it-trump-wants-u-s-to-redevelop-gaza-after-palestinians-resettled-elsewhere

Yeah, I don't care for Elon throwing Nazi salutes.

I'll say again, show me repentance, fruit, whatever. He is literally going on about ethnic cleansing now. This is not a moral man.

Unbelievable.

How do you know this with such surety?

I have just heard that the Canadian tariffs have been delayed another 30 days. Apparently the border security agreement was already in place back with Biden. It just seems like intended chaos for the sake of chaos. Probably to cover for Elon gaining access to everyone's personal information.

The flow of immigrants from Canada is miniscule to that of the southern border. Not that it doesn't happen, but it's not the same scale. Also, the drug trade, particularly fentanyl, was also cited as concern. Reports put a total of 19kg seized at the Can-US border last year versus >9000 kg at the US-Mex border.

Not once did I judge him to not be a Christian. The one author said that he has demonstrated an openness and has had conversations with certain known pastors, some of which are highly political or adhere to heretical beliefs. We can observe people's faith by their fruit: love joy peace patience kindness goodness faithfulness gentleness self-control These words just do not embody the actions and words of President Trump. Remember he is highly transactional, so a good deed or loyalty to him is rewarded. Break that loyalty and you are out. This is not controversial, it is his pattern. I pray that he may grow in Christian love and understanding.

And the trade war begins. Counter tariffs from Canada are up now. Mostly symbolic as they are only targetting products from red states. We are not big enough economically to win a trade war, but hopefully can make some things uncomfortable. If the US did anything, it unified Canadians against the administration. Hockey fans were booing the US national anthem yesterday.

Yes, we will agree to disagree. Franklin Graham? Uggh.
