    Question on Intelligent Design

    Mystics and snake oil salesmen have killed millions. Modern medicine like penicillin? Modern medicine and science is taking on a more holistic approach as scientists do peer review on how the human body works, "atoms and molecules, a chemical factory" and the brain. They have switched, from...

    Do animals grieve?

    While not on grieving, which is, of course, a given and pretty bad for someone to say we are better than animals because of their depth of grief or reactions to pain and death. We are animals, mammals, homo sapiens and I don't believe superior. Do other animals believe in superstitions? But...

    I am sure he does, but he is explaining a certain phenomenon that is an illusion created in the brain by the buildings against the horizon.

    Question on Intelligent Design

    First, you asked me "Answer my question: Are the Sun and moon within or outside of your consciousness?" I said Both! Then you asked me "If they are outside your consciousness, where does your consciousness end and Sun and moon begin?" The sun and the moon formed about 5 billion years ago...

    Origin of Our Species Pushed Back 100,000 Years!

    "KENNETH R. MILLER: Not a single observation, not a single experimental result, has ever emerged in 150 years that contradicts the general outlines of the theory of evolution. Any theory that can stand up to 150 years of contentious testing is a pretty darn good theory, and that's what evolution...

    I understand. I have to admit he sometimes makes me think a few things out, but otherwise, I kind of feel bad for him. But he seems to love to spew things out. ;)

    Question on Intelligent Design

    What was energy of universe at big bang?

    Our Universe Part 10: Photon Epoch "The universe is about ten seconds old. It contains hadrons (protons and neutrons) as well as leptons, but it is still too energetic for atomic nuclei (protons and neutrons) to bind. The annihilation of hadron and lepton particle/antiparticle pairs contributed...

    Question on Intelligent Design

    Wow! I certainly don't need to think too hard on the above. But you should be thinking more on coherent thought and prose. If you have "Higher thought" try following it with coherent communication. "Before personal consciousness is formed, that is to say, before ones' Identity is formed...

    "When you die, what you call 'my' consciousness does not die, as you may think. The TV signal does not die when the TV set goes ka-putt. What dies is only your identity, as this came into being during this life, but was not in place at the time you arrived in this world. What was in place at...
