About Revelations
I assume that you are going to watch the video series. It's still ongoing and Xoroaster is still updating on previous videos, so we can wait. He's almost finished though.

Anyway, the series claims that the prophecies of Revelations, as well as Daniel and others, were actually events that happened in the past, shrouded with symbolism (The 7 headed beast represents the 7 kings of Rome or something). The writers of the Bible believed in some kind of cosmic time loop and believed history to repeat itself. Snark indeed.

In the begining, God created... me. And He said I was awesome. 23:47, 19 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Excuse me for having missed the rest of this conversation, but aren't the seven heads representative of the seven hills of Rome, and the whore of Babylon the Catholic Church? If not its still the interpretation I like most. M.B.E (talk) 18:22, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

is this stuff with jimjast (?) and Eira like a joke, and they are having fun? Or is it really serious? I should not be nosy, but i can never tell around here. :-)--En attendant Godot 15:15, 23 June 2011 (UTC)--En attendant Godot  15:15, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Creationists...
"Kilian James Garvey of the University of New England studied anti-evolutionists, and found not only that they were more highly religious and more likely to believe in God (no shocker) but also that they had a higher “need for closure,” and reacted more strongly on affective (or emotional) measures of fear and disgust." steriletalk 15:27, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

In general, higher rates of belief in and worship of a creator correlate with higher rates of homicide, juvenile and early adult mortality, STD infection rates, teen pregnancy, and abortion in the prosperous democracies (Figures 1-9). The most theistic prosperous democracy, the U.S., is exceptional, but not in the manner Franklin predicted. The United States is almost always the most dysfunctional of the developed democracies, sometimes spectacularly so, and almost always scores poorly. The view of the U.S. as a “shining city on the hill” to the rest of the world is falsified when it comes to basic measures of societal health. Youth suicide is an exception to the general trend because there is not a significant relationship between it and religious or secular factors. No democracy is known to have combined strong religiosity and popular denial of evolution with high rates of societal health. Higher rates of non-theism and acceptance of human evolution usually correlate with lower rates of dysfunction, and the least theistic nations are usually the least dysfunctional. None of the strongly secularized, pro-evolution democracies is experiencing high levels of measurable dysfunction. In some cases the highly religious U.S. is an outlier in terms of societal dysfunction from less theistic but otherwise socially comparable secular developed democracies. In other cases, the correlations are strongly graded, sometimes outstandingly so.

18:13, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

The present research examined the psychological motives underlying widespread support for intelligent design theory (IDT), a purportedly scientific theory that lacks any scientific evidence; and antagonism toward evolutionary theory (ET), a theory supported by a large body of scientific evidence. We tested whether these attitudes are influenced by IDT's provision of an explanation of life's origins that better addresses existential concerns than ET. In four studies, existential threat (induced via reminders of participants' own mortality) increased acceptance of IDT and/or rejection of ET, regardless of participants' religion, religiosity, educational background, or preexisting attitude toward evolution. Effects were reversed by teaching participants that naturalism can be a source of existential meaning (Study 4), and among natural-science students for whom ET may already provide existential meaning (Study 5). These reversals suggest that the effect of heightened mortality awareness on attitudes toward ET and IDT is due to a desire to find greater meaning and purpose in science when existential threats are activated.

botting

 * The problem with the nowiki thing is that you have to hunt down all the ='s in the text, which in the case of sbs can be quite long. It's simpler to just prefix it with 1= and 2=. -- Nx  / talk 19:16, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * You're right if you assume that people will even know that when, like me, they're probably just cribbing the {{sbs}} format from another page.

 * You're welcome. Well done. He's got a bunch of formidable commenters on his various tracts. I'll have a look at your back and forth and see if there's anything I would add. He's woefully ignorant of the science - you'll notice his initial statement is merely parroting something from CMI/AiG/ICR or the like, but when the commenters eviscerate him he starts making things up. And when they get tired he's left to tell bald-faced just-so stories to the other "exmainers" popping by to pump his page views and advertizing revenue.

 * Probably manually except to the extent they already correspond to an adjacent bit of text you're responding to - in that case it's just a matter of adding {{sbs to the beginning of the section, setting off the 2 parameters with |, and deleting the beginning of your collapse template. Hope that makes sense. [[file:Nuttysexpistols.png|60px|link=User:Nutty Roux|Nutty Roux]]{{sup|[[file:Nuttytalk.png|35px|link=User_talk:Nutty_Roux|never mind]]}} 23:26, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Sorry if it's come across as a bit casual so far.--Ironclad (talk) 23:31, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Have a look at What is a RationalWiki article?, the Newcomer's Guide, and What is RationalWiki? That oughta give you a good orientation. First person narrative is inappropriate because, while RationalWiki isn't an encyclopedia, it's also not a blog. People want RationalWiki content, not your personal reflection. There's always going to be a way of rephrasing something worth saying that cuts the first person stuff to convey just the idea itself.

 * Retract your invicility or face a block. I tried to avoid the apparently inevitable block by giving you multiple opportunities to substantiate or withdraw your accusation (and I found it a little depressing, too). The onus was on you to address the possibility of a good faith misunderstanding, and you failed to do that. I addressed your points by showing (again) that you failed to account for a good faith alternative. I see that you have inappropriately unblocked yourself to make your post, and you repeated the "dishonest" accusation while you are at it. I am changing the block to 1 week. 01:29, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
