It's frustrating when you know that this problem is caused by banks, not because there is a lack of resource.

Surviving the Economic Depression
by metatron infirst, let's clear something up: for many people, it's no longer a question of recession - the depression is here and may last for many years!.
this could be true if you live in many parts of europe, or africa or ...... michigan!
let the 'experts' quibble over definitions, to me jobless rates of 15 to 20 % with little hope of change signals a depression where you live.. some suggestions:.

JWs and Multi-level marketing
by belbab insomeone, who was a jw a long time ago, sent me a message promoting an expensive cure-all drink called noni from tahiti.
i thought i would do a research on it and found out it is an expensive multi-level marketing scheme.. i found an interesting quote at the following site: (it is evident in the text that the witnesses are jehovh's witnesses).

I tasted the Noni juice, it tasted weird but I liked it, kind of lumpy and purple. Never purchase the stuff to expensive. My dad lost thousands of dollars with all kinds of multi level marketing scams. I know a lot of Jaydubs who also get scammed by these things. I think it as to do with their habit of believing extraordinary claims

Something not important but just wanted to ask...
by Anti-Christ ini was just thinking of something, i know this might sounds stupid but why is quebec not considered "latin-american" or "latino", isn't french a latin based language like spanish, italian and so on?

France is considered part of 'latin europe' but you're right. Its people not usually generalized as latinos for some reason.
Yea, it's considered 'Latin Europe' and Quebec is not 'Latin American' goes to show that all these labels are just stupid. We all originated from the land mass we call Africa. We are all living beings that's the important thing to me.

If your idea of a good breakfast is ...
by compound complex in'if your idea of a good breakfast is moose meat pie and spaghetti, then rice chex is not for you.'.
i remember reading those almost exact words on the back of a rice chex box when i was a kid.. i can eat moose meat pie and spaghetti any hour of the day.
why, only ten minutes ago i polished off a heaping, steaming bowl of mostaccioli, lolling luxuriantly in extra virgin olive oil and grated parmesan cheese, a side of bacon-flavored, blanched mustard greens and, finally ... two slices of kalamata ciabatta bread.

Oatmeal with wild berries and honey. Vanilla almond milkshake with chia seeds, bananas, strawberries and kiwis. A cup of tea and a boiled egg. That's what I have for breakfast most of the time

French is a Romantic/Germanic mix language. English is too.(yes I know english is way more bastarded than french)
Yea I guess that could be why , like I said just some random stupid things I think of sometimes. I like questioning a lot of things like why do we cut grass or why do most people shaves, you know the kind of question.

Darwin in Context
by hamilcarr inwhy non-atheists needn't be afraid about the upcoming darwin anniversaries.. the fear is that the anniversary will be hijacked by the new atheism as the perfect battleground for another round of jousting over the absurdity of belief (a position that darwin pointedly never took up).
many of the prominent voices in the new atheism are lined up to reassert that it is simply impossible to believe in god and accept darwin's theory of evolution; richard dawkins and the us philosopher daniel dennett are among those due to appear in darwin200 events.
it's a position that infuriates many scientists, not to mention philosophers and theologians.. "a defence of evolution doesn't have to get entangled in atheism," says mark pallen, professor of microbial genomics at birmingham and author of the rough guide to evolution.

Lets start with the simpler example: "an intelligent designer is necessary for the origin of life from non-life" Is there anything in this statement that requires the designer to also need a designer?
If not why not?
I believe that the statement "an intelligent designer is necessary for the origin of life from non-life" is only a statement, it does not prove that an intelligent designer has no origin. If an intelligence is necessary for the origin of life from non-life then what about the origin of the intelligence? Is this not a logical question?

I'll try to add some clarification on some common misunderstandings.
The creationist/ ID design argument is not that: "any type of complexity or intelligence in existence needed a designer". Which would of course logically require any complex or intelligent creator to themself have needed a creator.
But instead the argument is (for example): "The origin of complexity [complex systems composed of specified componet parts] from non-complexity requires, or is best explained as the result of intelligent design." Or "an intelligent designer is necessary for the origin of life from non-life" etc. There is no logical requirement in these arguments for the designer to themself also have an origin, (or even be composed of componet parts), hense no need according to the same argument for the designer to also have had a designer.
(The argument is then also supported by design theorists with specific scientific and observational evidence.)
??? I sincerely do not see the logic in this argument, maybe I did not understand, please clarify as I explain what I understand.
The creator is not composed of complex parts, so no need for a creator of the creator because he/she/it is not complex??? If complexity is best explain by the existence of an intelligent designer why would this designer not be complex just because you say so? I really don't get it.

Who is claiming this is evolution?
Don't know but it seemed like you are referring to our complexity as an spontaneous event, it seems like it but I am probably mistaken
Perhaps you mean: The problem is who created the creator? If life is so complex to need a creator as the creationists reason, then how more complex the creator must be, and hense how much more they themself would need a creator according to the same reasoning.
Is this your claim?
You see why I might understand this? If you are referring to they as being the creationists who are complex life forms. Did I understand correctly or not, your question is not clear to me. Because the problem of complexity of humankind is answered by natural selection but the question of the complexity of god has not been answered by creationism.
