Debunk this BS website, can you?

Twilight Hue

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
What is this thread about exactly? That the claims on the website are untrue?

You realize you're on the internet right. The overwhelming majority of it would not be considered credible in any right.
I think a lot of it (op link) is basically an opinion piece. Entertaing read as I'm sure a number of folks would agree, but not too substantial by way of establishment. A bit like something one would hear on George Noory.

Hey!
I was on YA and saw someone posted a link to this BS site. I skimmed through it and the material provided there is extremely filled with hatred against my religion. It's disgusting.

It is not academia, and amounts to word salad and biased rhetoric.


Academia and science refutes poor translations and assumptions quite well without worthless websites making the same mistakes they claim Christians do.


Worthless website.

"Vowels are speech sounds produced without interruption to the passage of air through the vocal tract."

I could quote from a number of other introductory linguistics texts or find literature in linguistics which doesn't assume this basic familiarity with the definition of vowels, but I hope this won't be necessary.
an aleph has no speech sound. It is not a vowel.

Yeah, I didn't care for the tone at all and I'm an atheist. No problem if you wish to present information, but the ad hominem stuff is distasteful to me. I can point you to christian websites that spew hatred toward atheists in a like manner. But you should just ignore that kind of garbage. You have better things to do with your life. "Sticks and stones...."

Indeed, just like how not all white vans are actually driven by people offering chloroform-scented candy to children.

You're right, there's Nietzsche driving a white van, and also everyone driving a white van who isn't offering chloroform-scented candy to children.

This strikes me as an intelligent answer to a ridiculously obvious statement.

I could kiss you, lol.

I thought I was a visitor. Lol I only imagine a thing I could do If only I had the ownership, to put it down. Because I'm handicapped in hacking. Haha

It would be a great way to promote the site, getting people to talk about it here.

We've given far more attention to it than it deserves.

I don't understand why would you say that? I don't want to be rude but your claims are irrationally biased to me but amusing though and I don't care about it now.

The linked site in the OP is owned by.....

The Joy Of Satan site:

Woah I didn't see that. Can't believe such sites exists. BS!

Yeah alright. I was just furious for sometime. I don't want to give any input in reply to what you said, because it probably will create troubles. By the way, thanks for your advice. :) Peace!

Welcome to life, my friend :)

Just ignore them. I know how it feels, trust me, I'm Muslim. Let haters hate and sink in their own... um... fill in the blank with anything disgusting :D

Internet's not all bad. Just gotta get real good at ignoring most of it.

I am always quite saddened by how poorly equipped people are at sorting through credible sources on the internet. But, to be fair, not everyone was writing papers in schools when computers were about.

You are so right......checking sources before quote-mining something on the internet is critical. Also not always easy to do correctly. I do try my best.....and still sometimes fail. I can follow something through a number of pages and think I am at the source, and then find later I stopped a page or two too soon.

I would never assume that you were being rude. But I assure you that if I were biased, any bias that I have would certainly be justified and perfectly rational.

It only takes a casual glance at the site that you provided to recognize it is utter crap, especially considering that you can find a rich selection of intellectually stimulating and insightful material online. There's no excuse for you wasting your time and ours with this garbage.
