Something to Think About
by Mr. Falcon inhow will it seem years from now when all that we cherish and believe will become as dusty exhibits in a museum?
we are constantly finding ourselves in different states of being, between breakfast and dinner.
perhaps, even that final snack before we are carried off in a realm of terrifying heights or ages undreamed of.

Do People Believe We Are Condemned B/c of Adam and Eve?
by Band on the Run ini find the notion that we inheirited sin through adam and eve to be a quaint, silly notion.
if you believe in the power of god, why would god create such a flawed creation?
few people believe the stories in genesis.

Religionists always compare God to a Father.
Going from that thought:
Suppose a couple find out through blood tests that they each carry the gene for a terrible genetic disease that there will be an almost 100% chance that it will be transmitted to any children they have.
How would the average person view that couple who, knowing that, would then CHOOSE to have children anyways?
Just a thought.

How Science has advanced since the Victorian Era...
by ziddina inbuttonhooks, steam-run horseless carriages, corsets, steamships, gaslight streetlights, wax candles..... these things were considered the 'latest' in "modern conveniences" during the victorian era.. the victorian era also ushered in some exciting new scientific discoveries and inventions - uranium, x-rays, electric telegraphs, bicycles, and a good part of the industrial revolution.. of course, nowadays we wouldn't dream of using buttonhooks to 'button up' our shoes, nor would we even consider having a steam-powered "horseless carriage" in our garage.. we wouldn't allow a dentist to work on us using 19th-century tools or techniques, nor would we trust a psychologist who insisted on using "phrenology" to determine why we have mood swings or depressions....

What are those fish that are supposed to give a great pedicure?
Ironically, they are called Doctor Fish.
But I think they are a type of carp.

Yes, Victorian Era medical care sucked.
So we shouldn't trust any doctors today.
Am I right?

Just for fun.

Good news, Brizzzy!
I heard that the dinosaurs can be resurrected, since their bones have been fossilized and not cremated.
