So I am wondering, where is Sailor Steve with that same nonsense he gave me? What does this statement mean? I have no idea.

First, he only posted two days after you did. Silly and useless, but it looks like he didn't plan on posting more, so I let it slide. He didn't come in after two weeks and try to revive an old argument.

I see he has quoted Solomon with no real reference to the question at hand.
Take note Sailor Steve.

I have no idea what he meant or why he said it. It was pointless, sure, but it was also obvious he wasn't trying to have the last word. Apparently he was making a joke about some people's inability to let go. On the other hand Iceman is a confessed Christian who used to post regularly, but these days seems to prefer hit-and-run posting.

To me quotes that have no bearing on the subject are just meaningless.

And rehashing the same points over and over isn't?

Here is the problem plain and simple:
If you believe in "creation" and think the earth is 3,000 years old, then science presents you with a big problem since it can show that the earth is hundreds of thousands if not billions of years old.

Already been said several times in the thread.

If you believe in "evolution" then you have to choose which theory within the theory you subscrribe to. Not everyone in the evolution boat believes in the same idea. It is as simple as that.
So you give me your answer and I will give you the reply of men/women who went to the same colleges and universities with the same degrees who will disagree with your belief.

And?

So in the end, nothing changes except the misquided thought patterns of people who see things one way, their way.

To paraphase Solomon, there's nothing new in this thread. Still you insist on trying to prove you are right. Why?

Since this can go no further, I declare it closed, unless Sailor Steve can find something else I alone have violated.

So after "declaring" the thread "dead and gone" you drop back in to continue the argument and then "declare" it closed again? Also, "you alone". If you bothered to look you would see I said much the same to SafeKeeper two weeks (but only one page) earlier.

I'd say Hottentot was right:
