:::SamHB, ever since you wanted to debate me about a quote I cited from a leading statistics website, I have never been able to take you seriously. I was like "what is there to debate?".  Your evolutionist pride was obviously injured by the [[evolution]] article which thoroughly debunks evolutionism and you desperately wanted revenge. It is so sad.

::::*I don't recall wanting to debate you on any such topic.  Have I forgotten something?  Please refresh my memory on this stated desire.  The only topics I recall ever offering to debate you on were mathematics (specifically the "generalized linear model" or some such) and physical fitness (it was going to be a contest, not a debate, but the details were never worked out.)

:Secondly, it is undeniable that your home state is not a [[free state]] and that you live in an [[unfree state]]. You are living in denial. I cite: "...41 percent of Massachusetts residents say they would leave the state if they could, according to a new Gallup poll.  The poll, which was conducted between June and December 2013, found that Massachusetts ranked eighth, in terms of residents who’d like to leave."[http://www.wbur.org/2014/04/30/gallup-massachusetts-residents-want-to-leave]  People want to flee a sinking unfree ship, not a freedom loving flagship. When are you going to stop living in denial? [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 15:37, 10 January 2015 (EST)

::*That same poll gives the same number (41%) to your home state of New York.
 +
::*Wanting to leave a state is not the same as that state being treasonous.

SamHB, your "argument" that Massachusetts is not constitution breaking is "that's my home state and I won't stand for it being called constitution breaking." A typical liberal argument from outrage. In short, "I'm offended", which is no argument at all. Meanwhile, people continue to vote with their feet and pour out of your unfree and constitution breaking state.

::I wasn't arguing the issue of whether Massachusetts is or is not "constitution breaking"—that notion is too preposterous to discuss.  I was saying that ''I am offended'' by that accusation.  I believe it is a perfectly logical position to take that I am offended because I say I am offended.  No objective evaluation is required, or even possible.
 +
::While I don't have hard and irrefutable data, I doubt that significant numbers of the people that move out of Massachusetts, or any other state, do so because they believe that state is treasonous.  Certainly no one of my acquaintance has expressed such a view.  Essentially all of my acquaintances think Massachusetts is a nice place.  And, by the way, we are proud of the fact that the American Revolution started in our state.

Second, the mysterious User: Conservative editors have differing birth places and you don't know where those birth places are and if these editors have subsequently moved to free regions. Furthermore, the editors of the User: Conservative account are merely Christian sojourners passing through this earth on their way to the ultimate freedom loving kingdom!

::The poll about percentages of people desiring to move out of their state was keyed to '''the states in which they currently reside''', not the states of their birth.  I do not know, or care, where you were born.  And, by the way, I was not born in Massachusetts.  Though I was born in a "blue" state, one that has a fairly high score on the "percentage of people who want to leave" survey.
    
Third, the User: Conservative accounted repeatedly pointed out that the [http://creation.com/15-questions 15 questions] for evolutionists continue to stump evolutionists which no doubt perturbed you. There must be some reason why you would propose such a silly debate,

::Huh????  Evolutionists?  What????  Are you confusing me with someone else?  The only series of questions that I know about (other than those on an exam, of course) are the questions asked at a Passover Seder.  And (a) I believe the number is 4, and (b) I'm not Jewish.  In any case, whatever questions you might be referring to could not possibly have perturbed me, because I haven't read them.
    
Fourth, after you behaved badly and indicated that you have left, there is certainly no reason to restore your former user page. Create a significant amount of original new content if you want those pages restored. In short, apologize to TheAmericanRedoubt and show fruits of your repentance.

::Well, thank you for restoring the pages, however much you may not have wanted to.  As far as new content, I created an enormous amount of content back when I believed that this site was aimed at high-school-level home-schoolers, as you well know.  All I do now is maintain the pro-relativity material, along with AugustO.  Please allow us to continue to do that.  I might go back to creating technical content at some time in the future, but this is clearly not the time.  That said, I have worked out a really nice, simple intuitive explanation of Lenz's law, better than what's on Wikipedia or Wikiversity.
 +
::One final note:  Your writing skill has improved significantly over the last year or so.  Your use of "second", "third", and "fourth", above, is an example of that.  You hardly ever begin a sentence with "Plus" these days.  It was actually a sort of endearing trait.
