Worst Poster Criteria; 1. Seems to make no effort to take anyone elses points, or the very raw concept of logic, into account while posting or constructing ideas in his/her head. 2. Makes others feel as though they are dealing with an internet prankster and/or has ideas and makes points that no one can believe are intended to be serious, they must however be attempting to be serious in reality. 3. Forces others to start observing them as they would an animal and rather than address them as they would a normal poster openly comment on how bizarre their behaviour is to eachother within the thread of worst posters exploits. In other words worst poster unintentionally forces a debate to devolve into a discussion on how terrible they are at being a human being. Note; It is very important that this wasn't worst posters intention, instead they must continue seriously and honestly addressing the topic at hand, but his/her views must be so obscure, ridiculous and/or illogical that the rest of the thread stops and just talks about the strange creature that is worst poster 4. As implied above, must be ignorant to an extreme degree * bonus points if other posters can not believe a person could possibly be this ignorant and assume the poster is a joke being played on them * double bonus points if on top of this the poster is arrogant and cocky with a know it all presence * super double bonus jackpot if poster uses own ignorance of subject matter as argument against subject matter.

Care explain to me your humor/wisdom?, I don't think you have earned with me the previledge of joking/pouring wisdom around without making a point.
Flores: I don't care if I've "earned" anything from Flores. Its only this losing battle I have with Christians, Evangelicals, Baptists, Methodists, Catholics, Muslims...in short all the little lambs in this world clinging to God that keep thinking their faith comes from heaven and not the fact that the neighbors are watching and doing the same things.
gendanken: you know nothing. Your western-euro centric biassed catholisism based definition of religion equates to nothing Your rationalisiation and conceptualisation of what muslims or anyone else believes or does not believe equates to nothing. Your understanding of religion does not fit with islam, your understanding of faith is as clumsy and primitive as your insults. What you define as religion equates to nothing. what you define as faith equates to nothing. what you perceive about any of these matters is nothing. newsflash: Islam isnt a religion, and certainly not by your cack handed definition.
Oultandish: And how clumsy and primitive of me to sniff out the lamb in you to think so. These are experimental questions you can't figure out from your armchair, little boy, and so long as you sit there thinking you know what I believe, how I believe it and why.........then you're the big fat nothing that knows nothing. But it certainly is by your actions in here. You're like the little patriot that jumped to put his body in front of his flag becuase behold! there's someone with a gun about to shoot the stripes of its 'body'. Gasp. Ha-ha.
what it is , is beyond any pigeonhole you could ever place it in. Religion, secularism, faith, theocracy, all bullshit semantic. Bullshit nonsensical terminology that has been defined by catholics/prots/pagans within their western euro centric biassed view of the world and beyond. pathetic. even the muslims have fallen for the trap of defining their beliefs by the terminology of the wasps.
Do you steal for a living or as a habit? Consider earning your ways sometimes. One word of advice, although you haven't earned it. Let everyone sleep on the side that pleases them. Sleep comes from within my dear, not by making everyone quite the hell up to allow you to concentrate on how you can go to sleep.
Kmguru is my fav for as long as i can remember. There are some more though apart from Stryd and James and Goofy that you shuld have cared to take a look at and mention; Chris was very good poster.He has posted quality threads for a long long time now.Although i think you might not know him well as you joined Sci forums late( As far as i know,i might be wrong).its your Academy anyways. Also you should customize these awards.For example,best posters overall. Best posters Pseudo science. Best threads. etc. bye!
I was educated by an infamous and apparently, now absent (and sorely missed IMO) poster - Allah's Mathematics, or Ghassan Kanafani. Islam is a deen. Basically, it's a religion on steroids.. inclusive of every aspect of the life of the member.
