The process of child birth creates children, it does not invent them. Iron is created by a natural occurring process inside stars, but stars did not invent iron.To claim that one means the same as the other is ridiculous, and I'm sure that deep down you are aware of as much, JG?.
When the spin wears thin ... start with the name calling. Lol.
Quote from: VinBucFan on February 28, 2013, 01:46:25 PMWhen the spin wears thin ... start with the name calling. Lol. Fair enough. I'll refrain from calling you names. I'll ask again, and nicely this time. Did you and your wife create your children, or did you invent them? Since there is no distinct difference between the two terms, are you suggesting that it is an accurate statement that you and your wife invented your children?

Fixed it for ya. My only requested compensation is the promise that you and the misses won't invent anymore children. The world certainly doesn't need anymore little Vince's running around. One is one too many.
Does the sun invent UV rays, or does it create them?
DBuc - your thread is doomed now. CBW is on full Black Hole mode. Man CBW, either you have the most boring life on the planet, you just like to type, or you have the worlds largest and most fragile ego. Any rational person would have never even had this conversation because they just would've said "yeah, I meant government creates a lot of things people need to create markets". Something like that - done. Instead, pages on spin
Is Thomas Edison referred to as an inventor, or as a creator? Does the sun invent UV rays, or does it create them?
