The first, baffle gab, is defined as "pretentious, incomprehensible, or overly technical language. " It's used to come off as knowledgeable but the user of these terms may only have a superficial familiarity or rudimentary understanding of the terms and principals.
The latter is similar in that it also involves large volumes of bullshit covered in a thin coat of fact.
Gish Gallop: "Named for the debate tactic created by creationist shill Duane Gish, a Gish Gallop involves spewing so much bullshit in such a short span on that your opponent can't address let alone counter all of it. To make matters worse a Gish Gallop will often have one or more 'talking points' that has a tiny core of truth to it, making the person rebutting it spend even more time debunking it in order to explain that, yes, it's not totally false but the Galloper is distorting / misusing / misstating the actual situation."

Posts: 37I hope right now while 1000+ Americans die per day, we Germans don't want anybody from those super spreader countries in our country.
Our numbers are good and I hope it stays this way until the vaccination begins!

On #5, the answer is gravity. And the part about accelerated inflation applies to empty space, and as I said "it is just A theory". That theory says the empty space between galaxies is getting stretched. It is a very difficult concept to understand. But you are just throwing whatever questions come to your mind, instead of understanding what the inflation theory even is implying.
Have a nice day. Cheers.

2. Because the English mentality of tacklings work less and less at higher levels. And thus English football players get brainwashed early into a type of play that is not too efficient at the very top. I assume it would be better for British youngsters to have other focus in their heads while playing. But, it is objectively looking better now for them than in a very long time.

But yes, real football is played in USA while they do play authentic soccer in Europe and a more aesthetic game down in Brazil (used to).
Peace.

1. How do you explain the Mars surface with the tectinic drift theory without any expansion of the planet?
As we do see a rift opening, but there are no signs of any plates moving underneath another plate.
Or are Earth a one of a kind? Just like the old idea where we believed the earth was the center of the solar system?
2. How do you explain the size of the dinosaurs unless earths gravity was far weaker in the past? Or perhaps even that the 100 million year old bones themselves also have expanded since they died?
Some of whom would have dangerous neck injuries just from turning 90 degrees.
3. If the continents that formed Pangaea have moved apart since then (as in the Atlantic ocean, Indian ocean etc), how can the pacific ocean still be almost half a hemisphere?
Remember the Pangaea continent alone was just over half a hemisphere by itself too. We see that in earth samples showing where the poles and equator was.
4. All the seafloor is very newly formed on the earth. American geological satellites have confirmed this. And hardly any ocean floor is more than 50 million years old. Except for parts of the Mediterranean. And there are no subduction zones as mountains grow where the expansion is on land instead of on the seafloor. In fact, all the most recent seafloor are on mountain ridges underneath the oceans. But the land crust is making it harder for the lava to break through, so we get a bulge or a spike upwards instead.
5. Why would only the universe expand at an accelerated pace, and not everything within it? Are you saying there are no universal laws of physics? Or does you physics only work where you allow it to?
6. The amount of books written on religion and how the earth was the center of the universe was in the thousands before Gallileo Gallilei got hanged for questioning the beliefs of thousands of scholars.
