I'd like to see you substantiate some of the horse feathers you asserted here, highlighted for your benefit... BTW, YEC is incompatible with science, and the idea of a deistic creation is not incompatible but the bible does say that everything we see today was created as we see it, and that adam was created out of mud with no predecessors, science does indeed debunk that no matter how long it took to create the universe... 900 year old people is a bit much as well and no skill level will allow a boat big enough to contain all the species on earth, a local flood is a more reasonable example but it does contradict what the bible actually says...

Does anyone know of any images of what the night sky would like if there was an active quasar at the heart of the milky way?

Horse feathers, ever hear of The Inquisition?

Yes, in Islam Jesus is an important prophet...

I was a little surprised Pat Robertson came out and said Ken should stop embarrassing Christians, talking them out of being theists is a lost cause but asking them not to support dishonest conmen like Ken Ham is the right thing to do and the tactic I usually take on face book...

I think it's becoming apparent its everyone's problem, people like Ken Ham and his fundamentalist ilk are making amazing inroads into our culture by preying on people most basic fears and by lies and misdirection. I honestly think it's a big problem and will only get bigger as the government increasingly embraces these people. Ken Ham's Creation Museum was at least partially funded by the State of Kentucky... States are increasingly taking funding from public schools and allowing religious schools to straight up teach creationism as viable alternative. It's crazier than people think, especially here in the deep south, it's difficult to find people who don't think the Bible is literally true, I think many doesn't understand why this cannot be true or choose to ignore the disconnect but at the end of the day these people given a chance would merge our government with religion in heart beat,,,

I watched it last night, I thought Bill did a good job, his honesty was impeccable and he did a great job of explaining his stance and why it was a viable and why Ken's stance was not. Ken was his usual dishonest misleading self, I could do a better job of supporting creation than he could but he has boxed himself into an untenable position that cannot be supported honestly by evidence and only asserted as faith and belief. Sad that the theists who went to see it, I know several, were convinced Ken Ham is the salt of the earth and Bill Nye was satans slave... It just makes me cringe to think this guy made money off this... money he will use to promote his outlandish lies and misdirection to line his own pockets with money... I thought Bill missed a few chances to highlight Ken's dishonest stance, the idea that nothing in astronomy points to a universe older than 6000 years is astonishingly dishonest and easily shown to be questionable just by the expanse of the universe and fact that we can see it..

Would heavy atoms be common enough to form planets or moons?

I agree and the length of time spent not having sex is significant in how you react sexually to someone. Since both males and females can have sex forced on them the idea that a homosexual will not be aroused by the touch of the opposite flies in the face of human sexuality as much as saying a hetero sexual cannot be aroused by the touch of the same sex. Prisons would seem to deny this objection as much as anything else...

I agree, the soft warm fluffy feathers are nice... then the screaming starts...

I definitely would not do one of the zombie pranks around here...

yeah, i thought about that as well...

It's truly sad to see a person so ignorant of human sexuality much less their own sexuality. Evidently of all the gay men I know none are real gay men or of all the lesbians i know none are real gay women. You are either totally ignorant of human sexuality or a troll, my wife and I have been members of PFLAG for at least 15 years, yes the whole nine yards from meetings and attend a metropolitan community church where we are only one of two straight couples who go there. We have catered gay weddings, have gay friends and a gay son, you are misrepresenting gays for your own agenda, I have no idea what that may be but it's sad if you are really gay and sick if you are just trolling...

I know many gay men, not one of them has ever said they could not have sex with a woman, they prefer to have sex with men. You are just trolling at this point for ignoring my objections to your assertions.

Again, you are not being honest, you claim a homosexual cannot reproduce, you know that is wrong, being homosexual does not preclude you have heterosexual sex, unless you can demonstrate that it does then you have no case what so ever... in fact being heterosexual does not preclude you from having homosexual sex...

How can you say homosexuals cannot reproduce? Do you really think a homosexual woman cannot have sex with a man or a homosexual man cannot have sex with a woman? Surely you realize this is a totally false idea?

Kinda "cool" comic in astro-biology magazine... http://www.astrobio.net/index.php?option=com_comics&msg=&id=&task=&ser=3&pageNo=1

Why do I keep thinking about a football bat?

New bucket list item... I have to have one of these... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yq7wBYxGWqM

BTW overtone, I don't fear my neighbors, I fear psychopaths, sociopaths, the desperate, and the delusional, none of my neighbors seem to fit in any of those categories... Oh yeah, on another note the gun my friend found was found due to a cat dragging in a bunch of baby opossums and turning them loose in the house, the woman thought they were rats and tore her whole house part looking for them and in that effort turning up an old loaded gun behind the couch... Weird things do happen...

I am betting Enceladus will be the first object to have life confirmed as existing inside, it spews out geysers of water ice that have signs of biology and these ice crystals may be contributing to the rings of Saturn. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enceladus

If they are as fearful of the "other" as we are then i would say yes there would be racism...

The male penis was created? Come on all the rest that follows is nonsense due to that one phrase. I do suggest you read the other thread as indicated, it completely blows your initial thread out of the water and a side note lesbians are homosexuals and homosexual/heterosexual is not enough to keep people from having sex with who ever they want and then the concept of bi sexuality has to be considered...

yes but it was in response to a flawed question of my own, it's all techno babble of course, but the Voyager travels at 1000 c to 2000 c (more or less) maximum speed, the idea I guess is that a star ship that masses very little if anything is easier to push past light speed and then on to the incremental warp factors. Of course Star Trek apologists have commandeered the idea of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcubierre_drive as part of Star Trek cannon kind of a retrofit to a possible real world FTL drive. Of course everything from PC's to mobile phones is credited to Star Trek by us Trekkers...
