Pontiac/AquaBlue on Christmas

[beer good]

What's Gray Goo got to do with sheep or Christmas?

Well, sheep get a bit grey and muddy when they're out in the winter.

I know that you all accept the fact that, not in our lifespan, science...scientific theory is considered by the majority of scientist earth wide as factual evidence...will upstage (with the United States dragging its heels) religion, right?

You mean scientific evidence such as wool being used to keep warm in cold weather?

What are you going on about? Have you skipped (or doubled up on) your meds?

And people wear woolly clothes in Christmas to keep warm? I seeeeeeee. Makes perfect sense! Thank you.:flowers:

 

[sparkchaser]

Oh, right. Wool.

Where did that just come from? What's Gray Goo got to do with sheep or Christmas?


Don't diss on Nick Boing!

Let's just say that my feet are firmly rooted to the earth.

Anything outside our limits - senses/dimensions - can never be tagged as reality. An yes, I am (proudly) the Christmas scrooge. Science truth must prevail.

So what does Gray Goo have to do with sheep and Christmas?

I give you wool thing. Good answer. But the bigger picture still stands.

Christmas = commerce. Enough said.

That one is folly and the other one is reality.

So you're saying that the people who made Christmas part of the Christian religious calendar way back when were only doing so to make us buy more Christmas trees and singing Santas?

 

[sparkchaser]

That one is folly and the other one is reality.

Well, since Christmas and sheep are reality, gray goo must be folly. amirite?

You mean scientific evidence such as wool being used to keep warm in cold weather?

The point here is this: Science and not religion. Do I need to be so blunt. That's my point. There is no room for religion any longer.

Do you remember your Tree Hugger thread?

This is quickly destined to be the Tree Hugger thread of 2010.

Erase sheep. Christmas is the one. It's all about Christianity - religion.

I give you wool thing. Good answer. But the bigger picture still stands.

Which bigger picture? Nobody here is arguing that Yeshua ben Yousef was, with absolute certainty, born on the 25th of December in the year 0AD. But if you want to make an argument for a scientific viewpoint, use arguments that make sense. Don't just throw out unconnected baseless statements and abandon them the second someone points out a flaw.

Christmas = commerce. Enough said.

I thought you didn't want to call it Christmas?

 

[sparkchaser]

Erase sheep. Christmas is the one. It's all about Christianity - religion.

Christmas is real. My calendar says so.

 

[beer good]

Erase sheep.

Now that's just plain cruel. Why would you want to erase this little fella?

Do you remember your Tree Hugger thread?

This is quickly destined to be the Tree Hugger thread of 2010.

Oooo another Tree Hugger thread! Yes, please.

Also, resurrect the old one for those who weren't around to enjoy.

Do you remember your Tree Hugger thread?

This is quickly destined to be the Tree Hugger thread of 2010.

Yes...BUT...unlike the TREE HUGGER thread where I never stood my ground. I sufficient ammunition (scientific data) behind to survive the bouts. I will definitively be the scrooge, but...I will be stand true in the end.

What kind of scientific data?
