The AI slop is a travesty.

According to his wiki page he was never incarcerated for his views. "Robinson served four prison terms between 2005 and 2019. In 2013 he illegally entered the United States using a friend's passport. In 2018 he violated a court order by publishing a Facebook Live video of defendants entering court. Prior to sentencing, he appeared on the American far-right website InfoWars to appeal for political asylum in the US. In 2021 he was subjected to a five-year stalking prevention order for harassing the journalist Lizzie Dearden and her partner. In 2021 he was found to have libelled a 15-year-old refugee at a school in Huddersfield and was ordered to pay £100,000 plus legal costs. After breaching an injunction about repeating the libel, Robinson was sentenced to 18 months in prison for contempt of court in October 2024; the sentence length was later reduced after he said he would comply with the injunction in future. "

No worries. A natural problem of this medium.

I did, as well as the sub-forum title. I was also joking.

Fake news - there is no dark side of the moon.

Except if parents consent, right? Like was stated in the previous sentence. Teachers may be the only ones kids can trust to discuss things like this. I agree with parental consent in the instance of elementary aged kids. Less so with older high school kids.

I know and have known many people of various faiths or even without. I have met non-Christians with more integrity and humility than many that profess Jesus. But, yes, there are people that are quite hostile. I've met a few as well and well, they have their own stories and reasons, rational or not. The word "many" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. Making a claim of physical, emotional or spiritual appearance to one's level of sinfulness is not a reliable metric. Well, certain young earth creationists would say that the current physiography of the earth is a result of the Flood, which was a consequence of sin. What would a "new" earth look like?

There is very good evidence of the universe expanding. In fact, the rate of expansion appears to be increasing. And, yes, science will never prove anything, as proofs are best left to math and philosophy. Science arrives at conclusions based on the best evidence. If new evidence is uncovered, theories will be adjusted to accommodate, ot possibly require a new theoretical framework.

There are of course certain assumptions at play, mainly that the universe acts the same now as it always has. Looking at the stars and galaxies, for example, is looking back in time. The physics in play in those observations are consistent with the physics we can observe today. K-Ar radiometric dating accurately dated the Vesuvius eruption, which we do have written records of. That is demonstrates a reliability in the underlying understanding of radioactive decay. You have made the point that God could create the universe instantaneously if he chose, but the question is then, why does the universe (and earth) look old? The latter seems a simpler, less complex choice.

We don't age date uranium itself, but measure the ratio of parent to daughter elements that in a sample.

A bit of a quiblle on this. Both of these are human constructs. God created the universe. He left up the discovery and description of it to us.

This goes both ways of course. My accountant grew up in Bulgaria and they thoroughly believed the US/NATO was out to make war against them at some point (and not without some warrant as NATO routinely sent jets toward their borders from Turkey to test response times).

Whoever wrote that article needs an editor in the worst way.

There are Hebrew equivalents, but for translation purposes, Pleaides and Orion are more well known to the modern audiences. Orion is Kesil in Hebrew according a quick google search.

Yeah, don't disagree; scientists typically use very specific and precise language in order to be very clear about their subjects, especially within their academic circles. I could bury you in very geological specific terms, much as a physicist could bury me.

I'd still take it just on the agricultural resources.

We'd happily take the west coast. California along is the something like the world's 5th largest economy.

Pretty clear this is some misunderstanding. Regardless, much of the EM universe has been mapped to the extent that our receivers are currently capable.

I don't think this is possible based on the current tectonics.

For your consideration.

Europeans are flocking to Russia? How do you define "flocking" i.e. actual numbers? From where? Western Europeans? Former Warsaw Pact nations?

If this is the type of journalism you normally listen to, its no wonder we're in the place we find ourselves. ?? Putting the word artist in scare quotes is kind of odd. Sculpture is considered art. Art is highly subjective of course, and you have no obligation to like it.

My daughter happened to be visiting the Vatican on Sunday and saw him give his first service as pope. Unfortunately, not in English.

Great, Rebel News. Lots of quick cuts in the interview, so who knows what's exactly going on. Canada's population is <5% Muslim and I don't know the breakdown between Sunni, Shia and Ismaili. Even with a higher birth rate, it's going to be a while before they become a majority.

I get the analogy, although it took me a couple read-throughs as your definition of an x-ray is more in the common usage of a medical diagnostic tool. My first take was an x-ray is a photon with wavelength of a particular range in the electromagnetic spectrum. Carry on...
