Your goal as a moderator on this site is to ensure the best user experience. In our best interest, we can agree that we desire freedom of speech and the freedom to discuss whatever topics we deem necessary to the Great Awakening.
When us anons here are discontent with your moderation policies, it is of your best interest, and the best interest of the board, to reconsider your practices. Whether you disagree with the nature of the content, the source of the content, or the relevancy to Q or the Great Awakening (to a reasonable degree,) you should not be so quick to remove topics of discussion.
Thank you.
I'm also going to sticky a comment about moderating. Here goes:
Moderators have two jobs that cannot both co-exist and that are counter-opposed to one another. Yes, absolutely, we are responsible for the long-term health of the discussion on this board. We WANT hardcore participation, we turn ourselves inside out for it. But GAW will be proper fucked if we allow unwanted species to multiply freely—and here I mean the low-effort, low-info tards. Whatever you're hunting or trying to attract, you put 'bait' that attracts your target. To us, this is high-quality content. That's what we like to read, and that is the exact audience that Q chose in the first place. You were chosen for a reason.
Therefore, here on GAW, above all else, the mod focus is to target and encourage only the highest of high-effort, high-info posters who post real, provable, and research-backed comments and posts.
BUT mods ALSO have the unenviable task of weeding out the dreck, the driftwood, the casuals that through their effort levels demonstrate that they don't belong on GAW, they belong in Telegram groups, posting about how "rIDiCuLoUs" the lunar landers look and how Elon Musk can't break the firmanment.
Now, and I cannot stress this enough, but... screw every single one of these faggots.
It's an unpopular tactic even among our most dedicated users, but, the herd must be thinned, and mods also understand that they have to remove the dead weight and the lazy, here on GAW, as well.
Several challenges went out today, for instance, from the DEW thread, and the results in modmail have been predictable.
I'll say it again, for anyone in the back: GAW is an elite research board, not a digital daycare for low-effort, low-info fuckwits. If you happen to wander on the field, you have two choices—move the ball forward, help our narrative win, -OR- be prepared to be handed a Bud Light and moved to the nosebleeds where you belong.
I leave you with this: SOCIETY IS DEFINED BY WHAT IT DOES NOT PERMIT.
We are weaponized autists. We do not forgive. We do not forget. You cannot out-work or out-lift us. We will win ever single time because we are more devoted, dedicated, and well-informed than our enemies. Expect us.
If this is an elite research board, then I want the dogmatic Christian rhetoric banned as well.
I don't want to read "it says so in the bible so it's the truth" on this board anymore. I don't want to read "you made one mistake, you will go to hell forever" anymore.
I think we can all agree that this type of rhetoric does not belong on this board.
Scripture is cited frequently on the Q boards. Q themselves, as posting was done by more than one person, described what is going on as a war between God and Satan. By Q, the Bible is treated as the immutable word of God, therefore it is fully within what is permissible on the board as defined by the very purpose of this board.
Secondly, to say that the Bible is false and has nothing to do with how the world should run is due to the effort of the Cabal. For example, the Rothschilds funded the expedition of Darwin.
The founders of modern science and mathematics did so, and were able to come to such groundbreaking discoveries because they operated on the fundamental belief that the universe was created by God who made consistent laws that govern how the universe functions. These constants allowed them to accurately predict things decades and centuries before science caught up to the math based solely on the on the assumed fact that things must be such a way because God made order in the universe.
One of the greatest examples of this is the science of oceanography. The sole reason the field of science exists is because one man was intrigued by two verses in the Bible that mentioned currents within the ocean. He was intrigued and dedicated his life to investigating these two verses. He joined the navy, used the resources he gained, and found the currents within the ocean. One of these verses is in Job, one of the oldest books in the entire Bible.
Many other such things are hidden in the Bible like verses about the "fountains of the deep" being opened during the great flood. Recent studies have found deep ocean fresh water springs. Through the discovery of ringwoodite, a rock that stores water, it has been discovered that our entire hydrological cycle may be wrong because water may be forced up out of fountains of the deep, both on land and in the ocean, and that the Earth has much larger reserves of fresh water than previously thought.
I could go on, but if you really want to dig into the staggering amount of places where the Bible shares things regarding how the universe functions thousands of years before established science could ever touch on it, I suggest you listen to this study series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdykALJ1hkY&list=PLRj8AJuzeJRwl4i9Wxk-ocUai1DqCWkb0
Um... what are these verses? Let me guess, Psalm 8:8 and Ecclesiastes 1:6? Those are pretty tenuous mentions, frog, and hardly amount to the scientific treatise you are implying
I wouldn't call it tenuous when Matthew Maury, the founder of oceanography credited the Bible as his direct inspiration for launching his study of the ocean. It is, or at least was, on a plaque outside a building that he did research in or taught in, can't recall perfectly.

Yes, I am aware of the source but consider the censorship war we're in. You often won't find much information in the middle ground when one side tries to bury it to protect their satanic view and the other are those researching what is said in the Bible and defending it's validity. It is a war or spiritual powers and principalities, as Q says.
How did you reach the following conclusion:
"By Q, the Bible is treated as the immutable word of God"
Don't attach Q to dogmatic nonsense. The bible itself is full of contradictions to begin with and the rest of this discussion will just be a waste of time.
Read through what I said again and consider the parts I mentioned about science. There are so many more things that the authors writing at the time would never have been able to tell unless directed by the Holy Spirit to write them. For example, God asks if Job can loose the bonds of the Pleiades or the belt of Orion. Both of those are, and are the only two known examples in existence that I'm aware of, constellations that are gravitationally linked. How is it that the one who recorded the book could have known that? The same goes for the foundains of the deep.
Going into other science, the Law of Entropy doesn't exclude biological processes just because it's convenient for the theory of evolution. In the process that would be required for the random formation of cells from nothing, water is a byproduct as demonstrated in laboratory experiments. Interestingly enough, the product, at that stage, is water soluable and would be immediately be undone without a protective cellular membrane that could only develop in an entirely different process.
Going further, if the big bang did occur, the distribution of mass within the solar system wouldn't be possible with the planets made of lighter gasses being further out than the core solid worlds like Earth. Beyond that, theories can't account for the force of rotation within creation and how one of the gas giants spins in the opposite direction from everything else. The current theory of how the moon formed is equally ridiculous and has changed at least five times over the years, each without any true evidence beyond hypothetical. Speaking of which, the lunar dust layer on the moon forms at a constant and measurable rate. If the moon were in fact millions of years old, the lander would have been buried in it when it landed.
Also, if the world and universe were billions or millions of years old, our sun would be in a later stage of life. As such, it exhibits the traits of a young star with much more fuel left unburned.
Another fun fact is that soft tissue is routinely discovered in the fossilized remains of dinosaurs. If they were millions of years old, that wouldn't be the case. They would only be that way if they were a matter of thousands of years old, consistent with the description of them being described as coexisting with man in the Bible as well as in ancient accounts from places like Egypt that describe flying lizards that lived in marshes that existed at the time (yes, backed up by geological evidence when the climate of the region was different). Though, as dinosaur is a relatively new term, I should point to the original word used to describe such creatures. Dragons.
All this and more points to one fact. That the Law of Entropy was not violated either by biological processes OR stellar forces. More advanced things cannot, and never have, come from less complex things. For things to become more complex or ordered both energy and instruction must be inserted into the equation from an outside source.
For example, when dogs were bred, it was discovered that genetic data was lost whenever a new breed is achieved. A short-legged dog isn't short-legged because new genetics were introduced. It's because the genes for long legs are broken and can no longer be expressed.
What appear as contradictions are, in many cases, simply two or more sets of data for which a common connection and/or purpose has not been found or discovered, whether the Bible or any other field.
For example, one might posit that the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are contradictory, until one comes to realize that they serve a mutual common purpose of maintaining the systems of the body, together.
"The Bible is full of contradictions" premises a particular perspective on the bible, one that sees X and Y as contradictions. But it needs to be acknowledged that it is the perspective (aka the 'understanding') that makes or defines these 'contradictions'.
IMO, the theologies developed around the Bible have many contradictions, but that's a limitation of the theologies (aka the perspective/understanding) not the scripture itself.
That said, "truth" is (obviously) transcendent. The Bible is a text that expresses the 'truth', and I think it has to be recognized that the expression is not prefect in the sense that it covers all the bases. The scripture itself directly speaks to this fact itself in numerous places. Paul himself recognize the limitations of what he understood, and wrote about.
Answers to your "contradictions". If you are truly interested in research and truth have a look.

Q literally told us to 'read the Bible' and 'it will be Biblical'. it's part of the syllabus. that being said, yes there's a lot of fluff, but that just helps to discern that poster's slant, which is always beneficial.
