religion and hybrids

It's because we are sick and tired of listening to you circle talk about nothing.

You covered nearly all your tropes in that last statement.

Hybrids: Check
Religion: Double Check
Mythology: Check

The only thing missing was mutt dogs.

You type an awful lot, yet say practically nothing. It's not a lack of willingness to listen on our part, it's that there is nothing of quality to listen to on yours. Bring something new to the table, and you might get less eye rolling and sarcasm.

The broken record stuck on repeat is old and tired, no one cares anymore. It's like the boy who cried wolf, over and over and over again, the villagers have had enough and we are putting in our ear plugs.
 
He forgot the hawks too........
It's hard to enter into serious debate with someone who doesn't answer direct questions, I find.
 
Autumn, THANK YOU. You hit the nail on the head.
I am so sick of the same continuous babble that don't even start reading it anymore, I just skip the thread entirely when I see it and go somewhere else. (some people just use the ignore function, then they don't have to see that annoying wall of text in the first place)
NO ONE CARES. That's what it comes down to.
It has nothing to do with "intelligent debate". LoL

Leviticus 19:19
"'Keep my decrees. "'Do not mate different kinds of animals. "'Do not plant your field with two kinds of seed. "'Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material. NIV

“You shall keep my statutes. You shall not let your cattle breed with a different kind. You shall not sow your field with two kinds of seed, nor shall you wear a garment of cloth made of two kinds of material. " ESV

"Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee." King James


"Observe my statutes. "You are not to let your cattle breed with a different species. "You are not to sow your fields with two different kinds of seeds. "You are not to wear clothing made from two different kinds of material." ISV

"You shall keep my statutes. You shall not let your cattle engender with a diverse kind: you shall not sow your field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woolen come on you." AMERICAN KING JAMES

So, please excuse me while I contemplate that while some here may believe that we should not mix kinds based on the above.... do they also hold true that garments should not be of mixed materials? I mean, I think you don't get to pick and choose.... or maybe you do?

Looks like you don't skip it at all. Rather, you post... see above.
 
Actually, if you've noticed, I have for the prior... oh ... 140 posts. I just saw what Autumn posted and wanted to validate what she said. ;)

I'm sorry, let me see if I can help you. With the hawks I think you are referring to... you have to apply the same logic you would to any belief in god. You can't prove any god one might chose to believe in doesn't exist. In the same manner you can't prove that hybrids of any type haven't occurred in nature at one time or another. So, regardless of means, likelihood, or discovery.... one simply has to realize this. Wolphins may be rare, but they have been known to occur.
 
Am I at least doing a good job of meeting the various memes that are being tossed my way? I am sincerely trying and if pictures will help I will by all means employ them. Seems that many here do like or relate to picture memes a little easier. Guess its like the old saying, a picture says a 1000 words?
 
I genuinely like to hear others points of view. I like to rehash and refine my thoughts on a subject and delve deeper into my own thought process on a matter. I like to understand why I think the way I do on a subject matter. That is me. I also like to truly understand where another person is coming from. I may disagree with their point of view or see it as illogical, but sometimes one can see or gain insight into ones own viewpoint best by engaging in conversation or dialogue with someone who has a diametrically opposed view. That is what I am attempting to do here on threads such as this where someone else has already thought it a valid point I might add.

Holy cow, you are really quit unaware of what my intent was aren't you?
You aren't getting what people are saying. Why don't you take some time from your continuous arguments and repetitive long posts and think about it?
I don't even have an argument to "refine" because frankly my dear, I don't give a damn. At least not nearly as much as you clearly do.
Every time I see your wall of text (on a cornsnake forum btw) what specifically goes through my mind, is: Why the hell do you care so much, what do you hope to derive out of this and hell if I'm going to take time out of my day to read that entire thing, might as well just skip it.

LOL, forget it though. I guess mostly I'm just curious as to why you attempt to spend your time on a cornsnake forum and argue at length about something so unimportant with such conviction with people who aren't really arguing with you much at all. You are a very dry personality and this situation is very amusing and interesting to me. I come here to talk specifically about cornsnake genetics, not debate about creationism via alien hybrids.

I'm pretty sure I'm done with this. I said my point. I can add no further value. :wavey:

If you don't care why do you feed the flame? Why not simply leave it alone?
 
Once again, I do apologize if hurt your feelings. I was trying to lighten up the thread with pictures. Like I said in the other thread. I can post pictures in any thread I want to as long as they within the rules of the site. I do it in a lot of threads.

As others had said, it isn't even fun anymore to talk to you about any subject because you talk circles, repeat the same argument and bible versus over and over again. So pictures are my way of entertaining myself and others. :)

Sorry but I do not see where Tara "flamed" you any where in this thread!

Did I miss something? Who said Tara flamed me? I think you may be referring to a figure of speech I used.... don't know how you got to flamed from that particular phrase though.

What I meant if we are on the same page is that by participating in a discussion your are feeding the flames of that discussion. If you do not wish to feed the flame of that discussion or add to it then don't. That is what I was trying to say. If no one was posting this would be a decidedly one way discussion and interest would probably quickly be lost and no where near this many posts would have been seen. Instead, we have many pictures, memes of dogs humping dogs, cats, etc.... There has been much emotion put into this thread.... but not much said or truly contemplated. Now, I would argue that I have thrown out some logical questions and thought provoking ones at that.... you are free to differ, add to, continue on as you are doing, etc..... etc.... but whatever you add to this thread is fueling this thread so long as you feed the flame of this thread it will likely continue.

Nanci the forum member says:

I'm not saying this to be mean, but Autumn has a point. The reason these threads all degenerate into BS is because hybrids have been discussed to death. The religion aspect was of mild interest because of its novelty, but that has passed.

When, a few posts back, I said your statement summed it up, I meant it. What is there to add that isn't repetition of what has already been said? It was an all-encompassing statement. You could have just let it stand. And so could everyone else.

But once you start repeating, right or wrong, people lose patience and start making "funny" comments and posts.

Nanci the mod says:

Okay, but just because you guys are all bored with the topics Carpe likes to discuss, that doesn't give you permission to start breaking site rules. And Carpe, egging people on repeatedly could be viewed as trolling, which is also against the rules. So can we just give it a rest, unless there is some new aspect of hybridization, religion, etc. that you would like to discuss?
