My work's IT department has obviously noticed my excessive visiting of VDip during work time and has banned the website. Add in some boozy lunch drinks and I'm NNRing a lot more than usual. Discuss.

Diplomacy's swear weird practice
A USA diplomat is on YouTube saying on the Telephone to another USA diplomat, "F --k the EU". (European Union. Do VDip game players shun others who indulge in rude speech, chatbox Global or 2-way. The German chancellor is angered by this f-word incident, while the perpetrator so far kept her job and dismissed the telephone intercept as great "tradecraft" (her word). Up the EU, anyone? Bruxelles à bas?

Certainly enjoyed listening to this debate and thought there were definitely interesting points brought up on both sides. Essentially what I felt it came down to was Ken Ham saying since there is some way to explain it, it must be a viable take on what happened. I thought the best thing the creationist viewpoint brought to the table was the the idea that we couldn't have observed things that long ago and our dating systems very well couldn't be accurate. Who is to say the rate of radioactive decay hasn't drastically changed over time?
At the same time though, it realistically is an accurate method of dating under the assumption that rates haven't changed and it provides more than enough compelling evidence that the creationist model is wrong. I think that, along with the idea of tree rings and ice layers pretty clearly shows the earth is older than 6000 years.

In the end though, it really does come down to what you believe in. If you believe in the Bible as an observational account, you very well could see creationism as a viable model. But if you see radio carbon dating along with other scientific methods based on assumptions as the truth, then creationism very clearly isn't a viable model.

I think a point that John ham was trying to make is the difference between observational science and historical science. From what I understand of what he was saying:

Observational science is based on what we can presently observe.

Historical science is what we "believe" to have occurred, based on our current observations and applying assumptions that cannot be known.


I think it is a worthy point to note that the Historical science requires faith. That is, it requires believing something that cannot be known to be true.


From this perspective, I think neither adequately defended their position. Bill Nye never adequately disputed this distinction. In fact, he simply ignored it. John Ham didn't adequately address some of the "observational" points that Bill brought up.

Large World Game ...with Nukes!
I designed a large somewhat current world power game that is very unbalanced and very crazy towards the games end (nukes start to fly all over the place). Somehow it works out in the end (if you survive that is) by way of a political aspect of the game (a voting procedure that can't be ignored).

Trying to wind down
Folks, I'm trying hard not to join any more games for the time being. I started Radiation treatment last week and don't have as much time as I would have hoped to invest in the games I'm playing.

I'm sorry for any inconvenience this will cause but will be returning in February or March depending on how I feel after being zapped with enough radiation to make me glow in the dark for centuries.
