  I conclude evolution is guided

  your qualifications are way above mine so i'd love to hear more about the specifics of what you have researched and how that supports the existence of a deity.

  k99, i am not really convinced that you're interested in my conclusions.

  in nature amino acids formed to then form dna.

  Even if it could be demonstrated that an intelligent being hypothetically started life and somehow proactively steered the process by which life evolved in its earliest stages... why would that entity merit anything else other than our curiosity? I fail to see why such entity would merit our devotion, worship or service.

  In 1853 George Crum invented the potato chip. Since those days, potato chips have evolved in variety, size, flavor and production and marketing scales. Does that make Mr. Crum the Potato Chip God thence after?

  as the title says--i'm out of here for good.. the site is full of atheists, communists, 7th day adventists, creationists, believers, deceivers, receivers, football supporters,.

  dodgy types, cantleave---and assorted wankers.. so no place for me--because i'm none of the above so dont fit in.

  so--this is goodbye forever my friends--its been almost average knowing you.

  the organization never ceases to amaze.you've got to see this video for yourself so i won't say much about it.

  i wonder if this practice has been endorsed and sanctioned by the governing body and if we will see more of it in the future.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbuxbx1ktci.

  The story of a secret Apostate Anointed

  2. experiences

  the remarkable sister pettifog.

  this morning i arrived on my bicycle at the local starbucks early, before the intensity of the texas sun boiled to full blaze rendering me a soggy, wrung out mess.. i took up my perch on the outdoor patio in the shade, eager to work on my book of short stories.

  this will be my 3rd book and i’ve been enjoying the process daily.. .

  This is far more reaching than just a game, you see. There are 1,5 million portuguese emigrants living in France, hard-working, perfectly integrated, and historically have taken all the menial jobs in construction, cleaning, porters ... the french, and the parisians in particular, treat the portuguese with disdain, calling them "les petit portugais" (the small portuguese), and never really aknowledge them as more than cheap labor for 50 years. Over this tournament the french sports press called the portuguese team "filthy", among other endearing terms. So, winning this final at their home, at their lucky charm stadium, on their turnament, against their team, before an audience of 80% french supporters ... is a huge thing, and commands respect. Not to mention that, as far as official games go, Portugal had never won a game against France before, and the only win in a friendly match was in 1975. So... Huge!

  It's rather shocking that, in order to receive an indemnity of 270.000, the legal fees amount to 1.000.000 !! Ridiculous.

  The article has confusing dates.

  The abuse happened in 2000? Or over a period of 5 years in the 80's and 90's?

  Poorly researched article, in my opinion.

  edited: Ok, reading again I think I understood: The victim first reported the abuse to her mother in 2000 when she learned that the perpetrator was to be released from prision from a previous conviction of child molestation. Nevertheless, the article is written in a confusing way.

  Come on WALES....

  by The Rebel in

  if you are romantic, and believe in the underdog, then tonight is an occasion when an extraordinary sporting achievement can become reality.

  i am not saying it's as great an achievement as man landing on the moon, but i hope this thread continues after tonight and concludes with wales beating germany in the final on sunday.

  now that really would be an achievement more remarkable than man landing on the moon,,.. anyone else watching the game tonight?.
