Good.
But you didn't answer my questio...Pepe,<br /><br />Good.<br /><br />But you didn't answer my question.<br /><br />You wrote:<br /><br />"As far as we know now, the accepted theory for the formation of continents seems to be continental drift/seafloor spreading resulting from plate tectonics. But since science is tentative, that may change with new knowledge".<br /><br />That isn't an answer to the question "How do YOU think the continents formed":<br /><br />What you've written is a garbled version of what you think scientists currently believe the way continents formed appears to be based on a mixture of Wegener's 1915 theory of continental drift and part of the '60s theory of tectonic plates, and doesn't go anywhere near to explaining continents.<br /><br />And even then, you don't seem to accept your inaccurate version of what scientists do say.<br /><br />Good riddance.bachfiendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14752055891882312204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3555199390227912207.post-13950326748634877382012-02-08T18:27:26.472-05:002012-02-08T18:27:26.472-05:00I have answered your question and I won't chec...I have answered your question and I won't check this thread again.<br /><br />Foddle doddle to you!Pépéhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00896283600100217146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3555199390227912207.post-91697795150979363602012-02-08T15:15:23.306-05:002012-02-08T15:15:23.306-05:00Pepe,

I don't see why your asking your own questions, good though they are, should get you out of answering my original question.

A proper name, referring to Michael's god, the god of the new testament, and the god in Michael's joke is also presumably Michael's god, ie God. <br /><br />Similarly, Allah is a proper name, the god of Muslims.<br /><br />Your explanation of the continents is just silly. It reminds me of the apocryphal puddle of water which reckoned that the hole in the road it was lying in was intelligently designed because it had precisely the right size and shape.<br /><br />Pepe,<br /><br />Until you answer my question, I won't answer yours.
