Re: Bill O'Reilly OWNS Atheist: "You can't explain the tides!"

This is what religion does... I'm sure you also believe the Earth is only 10,000 year old... lmao, no wonder other countries are surpassing us in everything...

What are you nuts? The Earth is around 6,000 years old.

Easy... Like I said, it can be explained...

During the course of your day, the oceans are constantly moving. Every minute they are flowing, making the water rise and sink. This change in the level of the water is called the Tide. The tide moves verticly, or up and down, but if you did not have something to measure this against, you might not know it. On a beach though, one might actually see the tide creeping it's way up to your towel where you are laying. Often on beaches people move themsleves back, did you ever wonder why? Because the tide is rising. The tide rises and falls at a pretty steady rate. In some places there might be a tidal range of about three feet in around eight to twleve hours, but in places like the Bay of Fundy the range for the tides is as great as forty feet in about six hours! A Roman scholar, Seneca, realized that the basic motion of the tides had to do with the moon. When there were unusually high tides, he observed that the moon, earth and sun were all in line. We call the phase of the moon when this occurs, the new moon, or the full moon. During the new moon, you could look up in the sky for hours, but you would never see the moon. It is in between the earth and the sun, allowing no light to reflect off of it, so that we can't see it. A full moon is when the whole moon is lit up, a large bright circle in the sky, now the earth is in the center of the sun and the moon, and the moon is fully reflecting the suns rays back to us, we can see it perfectly. We refer to the rising tide as a flood, and the falling tide as an ebb. The word flood comes from a word used on a thirteenth century englishman's tide table, he uses the word flod. His tide table also proves that the tide follows the moon. In 1687, Issaic Newton dicovered what we refer to as Newton's Law of Gravitation. He said that everything was being pulled by the gravity of another object, and everything exerts it's own gravitational pull. In this way, the two largest heavenly bodies that are near to us, are the sun and the moon, therefore they are exerting gravitational pull, not only on the earth, but the tides. Because the ocean is a liquid, it is able to flow, the moon pulls the ocean, and the tides follow the moon. One might think that the Sun would rule the oceans, it's so large! Not so, though, distance also plays a part in gravity. The distance from the earth to the sun is 93,000,000 miles, the distance from the earth to the moon is only 239,000 miles. The moon is much closer to us, and so the Moon Control's the Tides. But exctly how does the moon control the tides? There are many parts the moon plays in controlling the tides, there are also parts played by other important forces, these are called the tide producing forces. High tide is basiclly when the moon is most over head. If we were to have a world with no land interfereing with the flow of tides, directly under the moon, the water would bulge towards it's pull. There is one high tide. At the excat oopposite of the earth there is another high tide there. Why, you say, would the water also bulge outward away from the pull of the moon? The reason for this is what we call centrifugal force. Centrifugal force tends to propel things outward. Centirfugal force, the motion of the earth's spin on it's axis, and the pull from the moon, overpowers the earth's gravity, and the water bulges out. There are normally two high tides during the day. So we said, the sun is a junior partner in the flow of the ocean, it's power is less than half the moon's, and all it basiclly does is increase or decrease the moon's power over the oceans. Everyday the tide rises fifty five minutes later than the day before. This has to do with the moon's revolution around the earth.

Re: Bill O'Reilly OWNS Atheist: "You can't explain the tides!"

Oh God, I laugh at you guys... The tides are moved by the gravitational force between the Earth, Sun and Moon... Look it up... Educate yourselves...

So here is a questions for you guys...

if "God" causes the tides then how can we so accurately predict tide tables months and years ahead of time? Oh that's right because we know the rotational schedule of the Earth, Moon, and Sun and how their gravitatio*nal pull affects each other. And why then can't we then predict everything "God" causes.

This was not journalism*, it was theater, and not even a good show on O'Reilly's part. It only showed 'OReilly is an unintelleg*ent, radically religious man with his own TV program.

I don't know where you guys went to school, but we learn this in 5th grade how the tides are moved...

So why do tides happen twice a day? Explain that one smartass. Yeah, we all know that the "scientists" say it's the pull of the moon, we've just asked why and how and found out they have no real answers.

Did you bother to watch the video?


Oh, and as far as American Atheists, tell me did O'Hara run off with the money or was she murdered? Either way it really shows "atheist morals".

Praise the Lord! It is good to see that O'Reilly is as full of Godly Wit as ever.

As it is written in Job 38:

I often recommend the last four chapters of Job to the atheists who come here, I doubt any of them bother to read it though.

As it is written in Job 38:

1Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,

2Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?

3Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.

4Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.

5Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?

6Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;

7When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

8Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?

Mr. O'Reilley made MINCEMEAT out of the insolent little God™mocker!

I will never understand why guests like this who DO NOT BELIEVE push themselves onto Mr. O'Reilley's show. It's just the same as marching into a Christian's home and attacking our beliefs.

They are a guest, and guests should remain respectful.

Re: Bill O'Reilly OWNS Atheist: "You can't explain the tides!"

Bill O'Reilly could have pointed out many other things as well, such as the fact that the Sun levitates in the sky. No man can levitate the Sun in the sky, so obviously God is doing it! Or how about the fact that we don't fall up! How do you explain that, Mr. Atheist? Also, have you ever seen the size of a spider's web? That obvious wouldn't fit inside the spider's butt! Where does it come from? It comes from God, that's where!

Even though Bill is going to Hell because he is a ring licking papist, he OWNED this atheist by showing that the moon doesn't make the tides move, GOD DOES:
