this is a nice list of evolutionary scientists and their quotes regarding the impossibility of naturalism or materialism being able to account for life as it is observed :.
evolutionists against darwinism.
most, while sympathetic and respectful of their more committed colleagues, are disparaged as morons for not carrying the materialism banner as a religion, as a matter of faith.
I'm sure Perry is a great guy away from this forum. But to indicate he is great because he doesn't insult us ignores all of the hateful OPs where he expresses his hate for gays, lesbians, transgenders, etc. and hides behind Jesus' skirt in defense of his hate.
I find that abhorrent and much worse than calling someone a delusional narcissist.
take five minutes to learn something new today.... here is a very brief introduction to epigenetics with an interesting practical example.. ....
Cofty,
Epigenetics and Why Women are …….. STRIPEY???
WTF? Stripey??? I was reading this and hoping for an answer to all of the questions I have about why the XXers are SO many things. But Stripey??
within the past couple of days, women in nyc are going around topless in public.
i read in a news article, that in new york city, there are no laws against women going topless in public.the article says that family people are getting offended and they want to stop topless women in public.
in europe women show their breasts on on tv, the beach, and breast feeding in public.
SSC,
"Doesn't this planet have far more serious issues to contemplate than a pair of bouncing boobs?"
So we're back to talking about the Governing Body again, huh?

In 2002, partly in response to the events of 9/11, Russia implemented anti-extremist laws – laws which are written so vaguely that they can be broadly interpreted. In 2013, non-profit organizations that receive foreign donations and engage in "political activity" were required to register as foreign agents, which is a strongly pejorative Cold War term.
In 2014 Russia made the anti-extremist law more strict, and as a follow-up to the Foreign Agents Bill, on May 23, 2015, Putin passed the Undesirable Organizations Bill into law citing "National Security". The bill bans non-governmental organizations that it deems undesirable as a "threat to the constitutional order and defense capability, or the security of the Russian state."
Vlad considers himself the protector of all things Russian, and he appears intent on keeping anything that doesn’t support that cultural view either suppressed, out of the country or removed from it. The Dubs fit into this category, along with a lot of others.
The ironic thing is that the Dubs are a threat to internal security based on its destruction of families, blood issue and discouraging education to name a few. Maybe we should send Vlad an email like we did Angus Stewart.

recently a lady i knew in china who contracted a rare virus, a sickness from which few chinamen ever survive.. .
in china the woman was shifted from hospital to hospital with no one being able to treat the disease.
eventually she was taken in by a hospital in shanghi.
Stuff I should have included in my previous post about the ineffectiveness of prayer in helping the sick. The study was carried out by Benson-Henry Institute for Mind Body Health in Boston - an Institute specializing in alternative treatments such as meditation, tai-chi, etc. in helping the sick.
Most of the money for the study came from the John Templeton Foundation, which supports research into spirituality. Authors of the study/research/report include Dr. Benson and Dean Marek, a chaplain at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.
If there was ever a group hoping that the power of prayer would be scientifically proven, this was IT.

Medical Study Questions the Power of Prayer Published: March 31, 2006
Prayers offered by strangers had no effect on the recovery of people who were undergoing heart surgery, a large and long-awaited study has found. And patients who knew they were being prayed for had a higher rate of post-operative complications like abnormal heart rhythms, perhaps because of the expectations the prayers created, the researchers suggested.
It is the most scientifically rigorous investigation of whether prayer can heal illness. The study, begun in 1996 or thereabout, involved more than 1,800 patients.
the vedas are the core sacred texts for the people of the east.
generally the vedas are to the east as the hebrew scriptures are to the west.
supporters of the bible, boast of it's scientific accuracy,prophetic accuracy & general infallibility.

Yes, and then they go on to become the least educated, among the most likely to be unemployed and on government assistance, and have families with the lowest income in their country.
so i was fooled by the witnesses.
what can i learn from that?
not to accept things at face value but to seek out opinion and different view points.. hence my question " do you believe man landed on the moon?.

Can I kneel? Please?
