Re: LDS Texas Children
i'm not mormon. not even close but i hope everyone who values their freedom to worship will take a look around in their own lives and how their own beliefs have been scrutinized and tested. how far off do you all think we are from facing the same fate. this nation is moving from “a land under God” to one that puts believer’s out on the ...

Simplest Method -- ReGrow New Body
What an interesting and informative news item, military medical research and development. Of course, it would be best for militaries around the world to ''stand down'' and avoid warfare and destruction of humanity in the first instance, but of course that would be too much to ask of our brilliant minds, spectacular research endeavors, and world ...

There's an amazing amount of hate here...
There are some really bad feelings and a good amount of nastiness going around on this topic. When I was in high school, my biology teacher very clearly stated that the topic of evolution may be contrary to what our religions had taught us, and that we weren't there to argue the WHYs of natural history, and that some of the how's weren't ...

Dog Meat
I'd only eat dog if I knew what breed it was. For instance, I enjoy angus beef but not holstein. I'd probably enjoy a cocker loin but a doberman breast would be too tough. Collie bacon would suit fine, if smoked in brown sugar, whilte basset feet would only be good when boiled with beans and greens. Know what I mean?

Re: Ah, the perils of cherry-picking
I like cherry picking it's fun in response to catnapping: Hurrah! and another link scroll down it is the Harper's article on tasmanian devils and cancer with cancer now evolving to jump over and infect another host. http://www.brijit.com/source/18/Harper's I'm also looking for that lawsuit in (georgia?) one of the southern states that ...

UV, evolution and survival
From an evolutionary perspective:We produce a tan (increased melanin) because our vulnerability to UV damage creates an evolutionary disadvantage. This evolutionary disadvantage is so pronounced that in regions with elevated UV exposure (tropical regions), just being able to tan was inadequate, thus, we are born with a built-in tan (dark-skinned ...

Single parent evolution
Evolution leads to strange relationships. If survival of babies conceived by abortion families is lower than those on the big family squalor side of the debate, then the genes of the latter will design the pool of heredity. In primitive societies where bonding with a mighty male made all the difference to the actual life or death survival of her ...

Mike's Buyers Guide to God - Part III
Hard Copy Whatever it is you want in a God, you probably want it in writing. In the form of stone tablets, sheets or scrolls of papyrus, illuminated vellum manuscripts, gold plates or cheap paperbacks, most religions can provide you with their histories and beliefs, their do's and don'ts. If this were a buyers guide to cars or ...

Mike's Buyers Guide to God - Part II
Unless you follow St. Augustine of Hippo or John Calvin, who, by the way, never even made Saint, let alone Patron Saint of Brewers as Augustine did, you have something called free will and, yes, that's an enormous burden as well as an empowering freedom. And, for God's sake, if you're firmly in that predestination camp, pass this on at ...

Mike's Buyers Guide to God - Part I
Find the religion that's right for you by answering these two questions: What do I want from God? and What does God want from me? Whether you're a first time shopper or just no longer satisfied with your current spiritual affiliation, you need help. If you were looking for a new house or car your local bookstore's shelves would be ...
