Obviously you deem the site worthless for the purpose of furnishing an answer to the question @JudgeRightly asked you. If you had an answer, you'd answer. The fact that you don't answer shows you have no answer to give, and the fact that you have no answer to give shows you did not get an answer to the question @JudgeRightly asked you from the site to which you're linking. The fact that you did not get an answer to @JudgeRightly's question from the site to which you're linking shows that (if you've even visited the site to which you're linking) you do not deem anything provided by the site to be an answer to @JudgeRightly's question.

So you can explain how plates of rock that are 10-60 miles thick can "subduct"?

@Avajs: <NO ANSWER>

@Avajs' not answering that question is an admission that he doesn't think the site to which he has linked can explain how plates of rock 10-60 miles thick can "subduct".

If so, please provide, at a minimum, even a conceptual model for how it would happen?

@Avajs: <NO ANSWER>

@Avajs's silence toward @JudgeRightly's request is @Avajs' admission that even he, himself, doesn't believe that the site to which he has linked furnishes anything like what @JudgeRightly has requested him to provide.

Does it provide you with an answer to the question @JudgeRightly asked you? Yes or No?

So far, your failure to answer the question asked you by @JudgeRightly -- your loud silence toward it -- is the equivalent of you providing a NO in answer the question, "Does it provide you with an answer to the question @JudgeRightly asked you? Yes or No?"

In other words, whatever "information" you think "the USGS site provides", you do not think "the USGS site provides" an answer to the question you have been asked by @JudgeRightly.

The USGS site provides information. Yep, I dont know is part of science. You admit you dont know but have no desire to really find out because it may (will) interfere with your religion. Simple really.

I'm 18 minutes into this video with Nick Freitas who's interviewing Tom Bilyeu, and finding it incredibly relevant to this post of yours.

The site you linked to did not answer the question I asked you to answer.

Which you still have not answered, arguably because you cannot, because it's not physically possible for plates to subduct.



You're on a discussion forum, refusing to discuss.... And telling me to "man up"?

Me asking you IS investigating.



But not the information I asked you, specifically, for.



But you'll never utter the words yourself when pressed. You'll always deflect to someone else, to try and save face.

It's extremely telling that you still refuse to even attempt to answer my question.



It has nothing to do with religion.

I know that it is physically impossible for plates of rock that are tens of miles thick to suddenly dive under each other.

That's a matter of physics.

But if fairy-tale physics is your religion, like with plate subduction, then it explains why you're so averse to answering a simple question about your beliefs, because it actually will interfere with your religion.

And all you can do is project your aversion onto others, like you're doing here.

I'm confident in my beliefs, and have no problems answering, and am even eager to answer, questions about what I believe.

I've found, however, even as a general rule of thumb, that those who are not confident in their beliefs, tend to avoid questions that undermine their beliefs, because answering them would expose how fragile their beliefs truly are, as they're not based in reality, but upon a poorly built worldview.
