Will do.

Predicting eclipses in ancient times had do to with pattern analysis and can be done with surprising accuracy but not "perfectly" as you suggest. Today, we know precisely when an eclipse will occur. With the correct data, we can predict it down to the second it will begin and end and can predict...

I typically do as well but sometimes not and even when I do, I reread the post again after I've posted it and I often find additional typos or think of better ways of saying something or will occasionally change my mind about wanting to say a particular thing and want to change or delete it...

I didn't ignore it, I said you were wrong! How is telling you that you're wrong on a specific point, ignoring the point? As I said, I've been deeply interested in these sorts of topic for my ENTIRE life, Dave. I wrote a paper in my Junior year of high school on quantum packets of time. Not a...

I've never gotten used to using the @ symbol when wanting to get someone's attention. It just never occurs to me to do it. I'll try harder. I did post something in the Ask Knight thread. I guess that's considered "old school" now. :) (as is the way I do smileys I guess!)

More permanent typos in my last post! Being able to edit posts would fix that!

Then make the agument Patrick. If the arguments he makes are so lame you ought to be able to refute them. Do it. You won't even try.

Great! Another permanent artifact in this thread because no one seems willing to allow editing on this thread. I'm going to give it one more week. If the problem hasn't been rectified, I'll start a new thread on the topic and just stop posting in this thread altogether.

I've made the arguments and you know it. And calling a lie a lie works when its true. You are wrong - period. I've been interested in science my entire life, astronomy and physics in particular. I'm not a professional scientists nor am I even an expert in any scientific field but I know enough...

The guy makes a lot of arguments. Don't respond to them all. Frankly, there shouldn't even be a response other than, "Oh! Okay. Fine then, the Earth isn't flat." I mean, the material he presents is more than merely arguments. He proves the point. I wasn't kidding about him pounding the idea that...

That's a crock. Why bother posting arguments that you don't believe are persuasive? Oh! That's an idiotic argument for my side of the debate but it's an argument nonetheless so lets post it anyway! Yeah right! Sounds great to me. I'll take just about anything that is direct, substantive and...

Pick one. It'll be the first one your responded to that I can think of.

So what? There you go making the same fallacious argument that I've already pointed out as being fallacious. I've pointed it out again - now its your turn to repeat the argument a third time at which time I'll be angry and you'll still be unresponsive and unconvinced. Abject, flat out stupidity...

I've posted these videos before but due to the avalanche of flat earth craziness that has been posted here lately, I'm posting them again. The guy in the videos is not nice to flat-earthers. In fact, he's down right insulting but he does actually make the arguments and he makes them extremely...

It's not just that you have the burden of proof for a globe set too high but that you have effectively no bar set at all set for the veracity of affirmative arguments for a flat Earth. Flat Earthers present the most asinine, juvenile and irrational arguments that I've ever seen presented in...

The implication is clear. There is no other reason for you to have brought it up. See what I mean? What other possible reason could there have been for bringing it up. There is plenty of evidence of movement. Go outside and watch the Sun rise tomorrow morning. It's proof that we are moving...

OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! Would somebody please take this thread out of the Hall of Fame already! Either that or just fix it where we can edit posts. PLEASE?!

When someone on one side or the other refuses to be persuaded NO MATTER WHAT, then it ceases to be a debate and becomes something else, something ugly, uncouth, unrighteousness and unchristian. Christianity ought not be about the pursuit of doctrine for doctrine's sake but about the pursuit of...

Someone needs to turn back on the ability to at least edit posts in this thread. The thread isn't in any danger of being permanently deleted. Take it back off of the Hall of Fame for the time being. Please!

Good for you. Who cares? Because not everything in life is about you. Because you have an effect on those around you. That's why it makes me so angry. It is literal stupidity done in God's name. There are tons of gullable people in the world and many of them will be convinced by the complete...
