I'm pretty sure we could dig up some of your old posts and find some stuff that you've said, just as bad or worse than what others have said about Ham.

It's been a long time since any Ham bashing has gone on here.
The biggest difference Rick is that if a poster is maligned by another on the forum, the poster is at least here to defend themselves. Ham is not. Being candid, frank or even rude is not the same as attacking someone in the way that was described.

All I say is let's see if Ham puts his foot in his mouth. Gosh, at least give him a chance. I'm fairly certain that nutjob, wacko, puppy torturer, Bill Nye will. :wave:

Maybe you or Jac could get Ken Ham to come to this forum to defend himself? You all seem pretty close. :mrgreen:
But judging by his website which allows no discussion about the topics at hand, I'm pretty sure Mr. Ham would rather preach than discuss.

And jlay, you are absolutely 100% correct in what you said above. We should allow Ken Ham the chance to put his foot in his mouth. :lol:

As I'm not really familiar with Bill Nye, I guess I'll take you at your word, that he's a nutjob, wacko, puppy torturer. If that's true, it oughta make for an interesting debate.

Methinks Ken Ham is actually Jac or Jlay. :troll:

If that's true, they both do a great job of disguising the Aussie accent in their posts!

Uh no, not Ham. I've got my own concerns, but nothing that hard core OECs share.

FWIW, I think both sides are in error in how they approach the text of Genesis.
