Halleluja. Could you take G.V. with?

Links? Why? Get yourself an indexed Bible and you won't need to come here for references or information.

Pasting in that "ignore" button provided by OAS is sort of a pain. Glad there's gonna be a few less instances required.

Arch and GV, there is a big difference between being right and being self-righteous. OAS, Marduk, Min, Beagle, Sam, Starflower, et al, are RIGHT. You and GV on the other are just self-righteous. But even worse is that you both are also sanctimonious and condescending.

GV's preference torefer to us as "darwinian fundies" like it was some sort of social disease. All the while trying to prove that his mythology is true and all others are wrong.

You seem to think that the only reason for archaeology is to prove the bible true. If they find anything that does not do that you say it is because they are evolutionist with an agenda. Even worse is that you feel you must prove that all science is wrong.

Enough already. Go and leave us in pax.

Check the record Leona, and you will see who started the flame-throwing, so don't give me that.

And it's good to know that you and the others you mentioned are RIGHT, so go write your books of firm truth, just relax Leona, no need for a hissy fit.

I wouldn't get my hopes up too much Sam, he has said stuff like this before. Weird thing about fundies - they're not very truthful. :wink:

Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but in the "what are we missing" thread, Frank said this:
That's it arch you are done here.
So maybe the decision is out of Arch's hands now.

I find GV a bigger comedy act than Arch, but maybe there's a new day on the horizon?????

No great loss.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

I think Arch is "leaving" because he can't share the spotlight with GV.

Ironic, but I am not sure it is an improvement....

Barracuda - Arch has been here through worse than that. This is nothing.

Actually, I'd rather keep Arch and get rid of GV. Compared to GV, Arch is only a half-assed twit. Even if you don't agree with him, and who does, at least he really, truely believes all that crap and does try to stay the course. GV on the hand -- pompous, arrogant, condescending -- well just not worth the trouble to try to respond to him.

Check the record, Leona, you'll see that it was not I who started the hyper-sarcasm, you need a reality check.

I concur....and Arch isn't trying to hype a book.
