    What does the fossil record say?

    Of course Ardi’ is an ape. So are Homo sapiens. :confused: The discussion revolves around whether Ardipithecus ramidus redefines how chimp-like our LCA was. That’s it in a nutshell. Its relevance has been overinflated and hyped; Ardi’ is a testament to the newness of...

    What do Atheists mean about ‘No Evidence for God’

    I have some homework this weekend:

    Do you get smart when you die?

    I'm guessing that you're referring to Tipler's book The Physics of Immortality. It's such a bat**** insane book that I can't even called it sci-fi or pseudoscience but the odd musings of a mathematician and his unfalsifiable Omega Point theory. I will concede that it was a fun read though. :)

    What do Atheists mean about ‘No Evidence for God’

    I think RF is more interesting now that some posters have adopted the Mad Libs method of posting.

    What does the fossil record say?

    I'm guessing newhope101 is referring to Yoel Rak's Gorilla-like anatomy on Australopithecus afarensis mandibles' paper which asserts Australopithecus afarensis is too derived to be our ancestor due to the shape of the coronoid process, condyle and mandibular notch, etc. Rak claims there's more...

    New 'on-line museum' challenges evolution

    I just read the last couple of pages of this thread so I’m confused. Did somebody disagree with this? Or maybe they misinterpreted you? Cladistics establish general relationships, not that this specific fossil is directly ancestral to another specific fossil. What can be done from the fossil...

    Westboro to protest Elizabeth Edwards funeral...

    But none of those are specifically related to hatred of gays so the Westboro Church isn't interested. :no: The only pattern I see with their demonstrations is their anti-gay bigotry and picketing at celebrity funerals whether there's any connection to gays and lesbians or not. I just read on...

    Further explanation regarding new arsenic life-form from Nottingham University (Chemistry)

    As PW mentioned, the current paper A Bacterium That Can Grow by Using Arsenic Instead of Phosphorous, has been hyped by the media, and I argue it has been distorted by bad science reporting and some blame resides with NASA's hyperbolic reveal (remember ALH84001?). Disregarding the sillier...

    abiogenesis

    So you're saying Tolkien didn't write those Horatio Potter books about sparkly vampires? Huh. Huh? Wait a second. I thought you said J.R.R. Rowling wrote that series about a vampire kid that goes to a wizard community college? I had a library card once but the librarians kicked me out because...

    Zionist Sharks Attack Innocent Tourists?

    It's from the film Mega Shark Versus Giant Octopus. It's a terrible yet entertaining film. :D
