  The problem that creationists have is that they think that evolution MUST be like their own religion - a holy book that dictates, priesthood, and that evolutionists are organized and connected. Or, even that evolutionists are a religion. Not all of them, of course, but they tend toward this kind of thinking. My impression is that evolutionists are none of the above.

  Anyhow, creationists then use the above overlay on evolutionists to argue w and discredit them. That is the strawman method of arguement.

  Richard Dawkins FUNNY mistake

  by Christ Alone in

  2. entertainment

  this happened almost a year ago, but i thought it was funny.

  here's the article: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/religion/9082059/for-once-richard-dawkins-is-lost-for-words.html.

  during this particular radio broadcast, dawkins claimed that most christians did not know what the first book of the new testament is.

  Not even Dawkins bases his daily life on the Darwin book. No one goes to war, kills, shuns, or descriminates in the name of Darwin. People don't head off to tax exempt temples every Sunday morning or Saturday night to read about, sing about and bow down before Darwin. I personally have never had anyone come to my door to tell me how foolish I am not to believe in Darwin and get straight away to one of the aforementioned temples.

  Oh and quite frankly, he did a pretty damn good job of remembering the title. Particularly since the original hasn't been in use for over a hundred years.

  On the Origin of Species, published on 24 November 1859, is a work of scientific literature by Charles Darwin which is considered to be the foundation of evolutionary biology. Its full title was On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life. For the sixth edition of 1872, the short title was changed to The Origin of Species.

  my spouse is not abusive, mean, a bad person, an adulterer or any of those other labels.

  If a person is truly fair and understanding why could you not work out the marriage troubles period ?

  Does fair and understanding mean well matched? Why would you want to go through life with someone who is not your equal? Very empty life indeed. I have a relative who has done this. I think it has made him a very unhappy person.

  as soon as the dope has his back turned, the bank accounts will be closed and the locks changed on the doors- and a restraining order will be served on him-

  Uhhh who wants to be married to a dope, and if a restraining order is needed on him, he deserves what he gets. Loser.

  What nonsense Moshe. Again.

  Do some research, Republicans get far more "free stuff" than anyone who ever supported Obama.

  In the meantime, I would recommend not buying into the rhetoric of the Republicans... they don't know Blacks very well... or Hispanics... or women... or... students....or immigrants... *ahem*

  Or Americans
