Colibri, you closed [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=518857) with the comment that Most of your post is not a complaint about moderation, but an attempt to open a debate in the wrong forum.I was just wondering what debate you were able to discern, because to me, it was all gibberish. It is hard enough to understand simple declarative assertions. But what rwjefferson calls poetry isn’t poetry at all — it’s just free association. gravity bends both space and time. please forgive. It is the mass, and not the gravity, that bends. Gravity IS the bend. please forgive. the universe was created by the multiverse, but the multiverse has not been proven. existence is uncertain. please forgive. there might be no universe. we ourselves warp space-time. it is our mass. we are neither good nor evil. That sort of thing is a debate? Really? ---

No, it’s not. So what? I said it was “an attempt to open a debate,” not a debate. ---
