just in case you didnt know

Apparently, Sedna may not be a Planet, and they're considering down-grading Pluto too. These changes are bad, because I am writing a document on Space for my school. And I keep having to add/delete stuff. Pain...

*barely contains himself*

RickRoss is right though.
Jeez you can shout and preach about how you think the bible is right and real and everything but normal people can't do the same about how it's a load of bull?

Tsk tsk tsk

I've already said that sometimes FF can go a bit over the top, but he's doing, as nearly every other christian does, what he is supposed to and trying to tell people the word of the LORD and to try and bring them to him.

Now you don't have to listen to what he says, and telling him that you're not interested or kindly asking him to cease telling you of his beliefs is perfectly acceptable. BUT that wasn't really how you phrased it was it...?

There's a time when someone expressing their opinion can turn from a simple argument into plain, annoying preaching; not backing up his facts at any time, just getting on peoples nerves.

I have nothing against religions, but Forest Fan is taking his beliefs beyond an opinion.

Sorry if I offended anyone.

We cant see all of our solar system.

But we can see distant galaxies

I wonder why

Actually, I don't know whether you read it but it stresses that what they found IS NOT A PLANET.

"Not a planet"

"One thing astronomers want to stress is that 2004 DW is not a major planet. Although it is probably slightly larger than half the size of Pluto, there are other objects of a similar size out there which do not, by the current definition, qualify as a planet.

But that is not to say that a new planet could not be found. Experts say there could be a Pluto-sized object lurking in the darkness awaiting discovery."

Good to get that cleared up.

Hang on, that isn't the right news, is it? I heard it on the radio this morning, so March 3rd is a bit old, and I also heard that it was called "Sedna" (not sure on spelling) after the Inuit goddess of the ocean.

I already have a time share there.
