PJR old: It's just fine to say that dark energy has been discovered, because dark energy provides evidence for God's existence. Breaking news: Dark energy isn't evidence for God's existence after all! PJR new: Dark energy hasn't been discovered at all; it's an evilutionist fudge-factor! |

CPalmer, who believes a book written by certain Iron Age tribesmen, sanitizes a remark by "Ms. Iron Age Tribesmen": Down the toilet is unsavory, and ASK is going down the toilet and unsavory. Coincidence? UPDATE: A bold attempt is made to dirty up the Wiki again. |

Ken tries to make a point: Bob, I have responded to several to many evolutionists on a Conservapedia talk-page. Accordingly, you contentions fall flat. |

Mr. Reasonable responds to someone calling Creationsts "petty" by demanding an apology and threatening a block. Nice to see where Bradley gets it from. UPDATE: Ask... ...and thou shalt receive. |

Wow, CPalmer just came out and said it: consistency is not necessarily something to aim for on a site with a Biblical worldview |

Inserting a quote from Hitler that says essentially the same thing as PJR and company have said about morality now constitutes "parody." UPDATE: Irrelevant parody, to boot. |

PJR: We at RationalWiki keep him on his toes. |

PJR: The best person to explain Jeffrey Dahmer's behavior is Jeffrey Dahmer himself. Unfortunately, it follows that the best person to explain any atheist's behavior is the atheist himself, not Christians who claim it stems from hatred of God. |

An idea of ASK's priorities: Number of non-minor edits to all mainspace pages in last day: 16. Number of edits discussing what font to use for quotes on talk pages in last two days: 20 and counting. |

Ken defends his credibility (and takes three edits to do it). |
|

You know Ken's around when there's more than 20 edits in an hour to the same page on aSK! |

It isn't a fallacy when I do it. |

PJR: Death wasn't part of God's PlanTM for humanity; instead, God intended us either to use condoms or to expand onto other planets. |

What is going on? Nothing. Or at best very little. |

Whatever you do, don't let Proxima Centauri see you cleaning up one of her pet |

Looks like Christians need warnings about evolutionist arguments that just might be strong enough to disturb their faith. [1] Don’t let the faithful see any suggestion that God set out to deceive us. [2] |

The fossil record doesn’t show changes over time, pathogens don’t evolve antibiotic resistance, microevolution doesn’t happen. Well Philip J. Rayment thinks he knows better than the scientists who study these subjects and removed the "false" information. [3] |

Man, back in Biblical days, being a slave was awesome! |

Aww, isn't that cute? He thinks he's making a point. |

Say, if Ken lets this one go on his talk page, does that mean he'll be intellectually honest and remove this bit of quote mining? And maybe pigs will fly. |

Bradley scolds a Member for exceeding her rights, even though there's no rule about it. Ad hoc rules are always popular. |

PJR asks a completely bizarre question. |

PJR: Every single thing I pluck out of the blue, like a television, can be considered a god; therefore atheists obviously have gods. |

Ken, being pwned on the subject of elementary genetics, responds by calling it all "bunk science." |

PJR: When God Almighty makes a law, we wretched sinners should have some thoughts of our own as to whether the rationale behind the law still applies. Bonus: Being apparently unfamiliar with the term canonical, he uses "non-apocryphal" instead. |

LowKey adds some background reading material illustrating CMI's, er, rather odd views about aliens and God's activities of ethnic cleansing. |

The God who personally murdered children in Egypt, killed almost everyone on earth at one point and told a man to murder his own child before saying "just kidding" has had his feelings hurt by you calling him a vindictive creep and needs me to protect him, delicate flower that He is. |

Dinsdale, through due diligence and scrupulous intellectual honesty, determines that Jesus didn't really support Biblical inerrancy. This should spark a re-evaluation of the concept by Philip and Bradley. Yup, aaaaany time now. |

Get a crazy religious newsletter to shill for your encyclopaedia, get crazy religious guys free. |

Hold on...is Philip saying that Mosaic Law only applied to the Israelites and doesn't apply today? I guess that means we can stop using Leviticus to prop up anti-homosexual bigotry. That's good news. |

Dahmer is not representative of atheism...he's just the logical result of atheism. See? Not representative at all except all atheists follow the same ideas to a lesser degree. |

Philip's little definition problem continues. So now the key terms that he has not or refuses to define include "information", "meaning" and now "absolute morality". |
