Why do creationists refuse to define their terms?
Question by : Why do creationists refuse to define their terms?
Recently I was discussing ring species with a group of creationists. Their response fell into two categories:
1) Ring species are a result of a loss of genetic “information”.
2) Ring species are still the same “kind”.
But to date, I have yet to hear any creationist actually satisfactorily define either of those terms. What exactly is a “kind”? What exactly is “information”?
For the former, I’ve heard enough creationists talking to come up with the definition that they seem to use, whether they say it or not. The way it is used by creationists, a “kind” is any group of animals collectively referred to by a particular common group name. For example, salamanders are one kind, jellyfish are another, dogs are another, monkeys are another.
The problem with this is it makes no sense whatsoever when one has even the slightest background in biology. Those categories are arbitrary and have nothing to do with the actual similarity of the creatures, nor of their evolutionary history, nor is there any link to known taxonomy.
So, creationists, I have to ask you: Is the reason you refuse to define “kind” and “information” because any definition you could choose would either be nonsensical or would instantly prove you wrong?
And is my definition of “kind” resulting from discussions with creationists an accurate representation of what you mean, regardless if it makes no sense with respect to known biology?

Answer by The_Doc_Man
You are correct. I have never been able to pin down a creationist on a definition. They don’t want to do that because the moment they do, they lose.

Solider jailed over these rap lyrics…do you think he deserved it?
Question by : Solider jailed over these rap lyrics…do you think he deserved it?
If I do drugs, I’ll get kicked out
But if my time is out I can’t get out
So the good die young I heard it out your mouth
So [expletive] the Army
And everything you’re all about
Like Obama says “Somebody be held responsible”
But some of ya’ll gonna be held in the hospitals whenever possible
To pursue my own journeys in life, through my own main obstacles
Since I can’t pinpoint the culpable
They want me ’cause misery loves company
I’m gonna round them all up
Eventually, easily, walk right up peacefully
And surprise them all
Yes, yes ya’ll up against the wall
Turn around, I gotta a [expletive] magazine with thirty rounds
On a three round burst, ready to fire down
Still against the wall I grab my M-4
Spray and watch all the bodies hit the floor
I bet you never stop loss nobody no more

Q&A: what is a definition of a minute order in federal cases marked “Rule to Show cause Hearing”?
Question by jebbie4u2005: what is a definition of a minute order in federal cases marked “Rule to Show cause Hearing”?
what is a minute order and who provides a minute order to the federal courts and what is the reasons for “A Rule to Show Cause hearing”.
Best answer:
Answer by Sage
In federal court, a “minute order” is simply an order entered by a federal judge or magistrate. It is called a “minute order” because it is entered in the “minutes” of the court. A minute order is typically prepared by the judge or magistrate presiding over the case (sometimes by the law clerk for the judge or magistrate but entered in the name of the judge). Ordinarily, a minute order is a ruling on a request for court action (a motion or order to show cause) submitted by one of the parties to the case. The reference to a “rule to show cause hearing” is a bit confusing. Perhaps you mean an order to show cause (sometimes called an “OSC”) hearing. An order to show cause hearing is a hearing on a particular issue brought to the attention of the court by one of the parties. This is simply a method of bringing an issue to the court’s attention, and asking the court to rule on it.

Airline Cabin Announcements?
Question by bilbo b: Airline Cabin Announcements?
All too rarely, airline attendants make an effort to make the in flight “safety lecture” and announcements a bit more entertaining. Here are some real examples that have been heard or reported:
1. On a Southwest flight 245 (SW has no assigned seating, you just sit where you want) passengers were apparently having a hard time choosing, when a flight attendant announced, “People, people we’re not picking out furniture here, find a seat and get in it!”
2. On a Continental Flight with a very “senior” flight attendant crew, the pilot said, “Ladies and gentlemen, we’ve reached cruising altitude and will be turning down the cabin lights. This is for your comfort and to enhance the appearance of your flight attendants.”
3. On landing, the stewardess said, “Please be sure to take all of your belongings. If you’re going to leave anything, please make sure it’s something we’d like to have.
4. “There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4 ways out of this airplane”
5. “Thank you for flying Delta Business Express. We hope you enjoyed giving us the business as much as we enjoyed taking you for a ride.”
6. As the plane landed and was coming to a stop at Ronald Reagan, a lone voice came over the loudspeaker: “Whoa, big fella. WHOA!”
7. After a particularly rough landing during thunderstorms in Memphis, a flight attendant on a Northwest flight a announced, “Please take care when opening the overhead compartments because, after a landing like that, sure as hell everything has shifted.”
8. From a Southwest Airlines employee: “Welcome aboard Southwest Flight 245 to Tampa . To operate your seat belt, insert the metal tab into the buckle, and pull tight. It works just like every other seat belt; and, if you don’t know how to operate one, you probably shouldn’t be out in public unsupervised.”
9. “In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, masks will descend from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it over your face. If you have a small child traveling with you, secure your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are traveling with more than one small child, pick your favorite.”
10. “As you exit the plane, make sure to gather all of your belongings. Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the flight attendants. Please do not leave children or spouses.”
12. And from the pilot during his welcome message: “Delta Airlines is pleased to have some of the best flight attendants in the industry. Unfortunately, none of them are on this flight!”
Best answer:
Answer by Bob W
Here’s one I experienced first hand. Upon a particularly rough landing on the runway, the flight attendant got on the PA and said, “Folks, that wasn’t the pilot’s fault. And it wasn’t the plane’s fault. It was the asphalt.”
