Grand Theft Auto V: The Manual

by glenster in

as this is the biggest grand theft auto game to date, we literally couldnt fit everything into an old fashioned style printed booklet anymore so instead we have taken the tradition of the classic gta game manual into the digital era properly and have created for you a massive over-100-page free digital app for smartphones, tablets as well as desktops called grand theft auto v: the manual.

the official manual app has everything from essential and practical game con- trols, features and credits info to a tour through the activities and local shops and brands in the game and best yet, a special digital version of the game map to zoom in and explore with an interactive legend to browse neighbor- hoods and points of interest all over the entire world of los santos and blaine county.. http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/51371/the-free-gtav-ifruit-and-game-manual-companion-apps.html.

(disclaimer--i'm not familiar with these non-pc let's players):.

Too conservative

In November 2009, Cameron and others distributed free copies of an altered version of Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species on college campuses in the United States. The book consisted of Darwin's text with chapters of the book removed, and with an added introduction by Ray Comfort reiterating common creationist assertions about Darwin and evolution. The book was criticized by scientists and Darwin biographers who criticized the omission of key chapters of the book, and who stated that its introduction contains misinformation about Darwin, and long-refuted creationist arguments about the science of evolution, such as the linking of Nazi racial theories to Darwinist ideas. Comfort later said that the four chapters were chosen at random to be omitted in order to make the book small enough to be affordable as a giveaway, with the absent chapters available for download, but that the missing chapters were included in the second edition, which had a smaller text size that made printing the entire book as a giveaway affordable. The second edition still lacks Darwin's preface and glossary of terms. The National Center for Science Education arranged a campaign to distribute an analysis of the Comfort introduction and a banana bookmark at colleges across the U.S.

In March 2012, Cameron stated on Piers Morgan Tonight that "homosexuality is unnatural, detrimental and ultimately destructive to foundations of civiliza- tion". Cameron's comments received criticism from GLAAD, and provoked a backlash from gay rights activists and members of the entertainment industry, including Roseanne Barr, Kristin Chenoweth, Craig Ferguson, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Debra Messing, Martha Plimpton, as well as Growing Pains co-stars Tracey Gold and Alan Thicke. Piers Morgan stated that Cameron was brave for expressing his opinion, "however antiquated his beliefs may be". Rosie O'Donnell invited him to discuss his comments on same-sex marriage on The Rosie Show, but he declined and sugges- ted a private dinner to discuss this topic personally.

Did Jesus really exist?

by slimboyfat in

i had been wondering over the past few years whether there really was a historical jesus at all, until a few months ago when i read bart ehrman's latest book "did jesus exist?

" initially i was persuaded by his argument that the nt contains multiple sources that testify to jesus' existence.

but more recently i have been reading the christ myth position of richard carrier and his responses to ehrman.

I didn't compare Jesus to Muhammad, who was a politicized leader of belief.
Some of the popular portrayal of Jesus, which seems to have arisen early on, is
a matter of faith. I'm concerned to denounce what goes over the line into harm
by believers and non-believers.

Who Discovered America? Silly title!

by fulltimestudent in

surely the answer is that the americas were discovered by the first humans to get there - almost certainly east asians.

but the popular answer is almost always columbus.. this view has been under challenge, by some popular writers who argue that other groups made it before columbus.

a strong arguement can surely be made for northern (viking?
