    OMG OMG OMG Dirk Gently!!!!

    That can't be, because H.P. Lovecraft already filled that role. Is Adams the guy who wrote all those books about Hobbits and dragons and crap?

    NASA Finds New Form Of Life

    I waited to see if the fuss would die down and the actual paper's contents were read. That Gizmodo article in the OP is awful; the science blogs that are reporting back on the finding are rather underwhelmed. It may just be more bad science reporting and brings to mind the hysteria over Venters'...

    Why are White People the ones who get called racists?

    Fair enough. I used puerile towards the OP in the "silly" and "trivial" sense, but I understand your point. As much of a point I can take from a kilt wearin', shack dwellin', Scottish immigrant, drunken groundskeeper that is... :p

    Good book for a 5 year old interested in architecture and science.

    I'm not sure about good architecture books for kids but I like Shermer's Teach Your Child Science (sorry, the Amazon.uk didn't have a pic so I used the N. American Amazon) as an introduction to arranging tests. The book should be good for a 5 year old but it's geared more towards helping the...

    Life ants and the self

    That's how it works with Queen Elizabeth and the Irish.

    Life ants and the self

    I'd suggest reading anything by E.O. Wilson, particularly his excellent Superorganism which examines how ant colonies composed of individuals, acting on a hardwired altruism, are a stepping stone between the organism and a species. I actually just wanted to post here so I could use the word...

    Greetings from New Zealand

    Hi SmallFishNZ. Do you know Peter Jackson or any Hobbits? I'd like to meet a Hobbit some day.

    Why are White People the ones who get called racists?

    I disagree particularly when I already addressed the OP's false assumptions in my post #50 and didn't give my opinion of its puerile nature until much later. I sincerely think the OP was puerile, the question itself isn't but the way it was presented was silly and trivialized a complicated...

    Why are White People the ones who get called racists?

    I found the entire OP puerile; equating things like the NAACP and the lack of caucasian clubs at schools is trivializing the history of racism in the U.S. imo. I don't think my post(s) were knee jerk. I hope not. :shrug: I did respond to the OP with a logical rebuttal devoid of character...

    171 days left until Jesus' second coming

    It's a deal! I will, I'll sign everything over. Well, everything except my Windrunners.... Too soon? :cool:

    Why are White People the ones who get called racists?

    I'm just giving him the benefit of the doubt since this thread is the only one where he has demonstrated anything I'd associate with a white nationalist attitude. His viking imagery could very well have more to do with a 17 yeard olds interest in Swedish death metal than white nationalism. Of...

    Why are White People the ones who get called racists?

    Heh... subtle. I may or may not be naive for assuming his whole shtick has more to do with a 17 year old being into bands like Meshuggah and Omium Gatherum than white nationalism.

    So there I am minding my own business reading a bit about snake evolution when suddenly

    So, to sum up this thread, Monta denies special creation and basically believes we came from monkeys?

    Why are White People the ones who get called racists?

    Anyone can join the NAACP. Given the U.S.'s history of White domination I don't think a White version of the NAACP is necessary- the history of "separate but equal" has always tilted the beneficial to White Americans. Then the Italian, Irish, Polish and French clubs must be terrified...

    So there I am minding my own business reading a bit about snake evolution when suddenly

    Natural selection. A more pressing question is whether it's Mullerian mimicry or Batesian mimicry? I'm not gonna eat one to find out...:eek:

    Tower of Babel

    I realize the passages you mentioned are scripture- Nimrod is mentioned in Gen. 10:8-9 where it's established Nimrod's kingdom housed the cities Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calnah in the land of Shinar. But while it does describe his founding the city of Babel the extrabiblical legend that he's...

    Good point. I, Mr. Rod.

    What qualifies as "Religion"?

    Regarding the OP, I'm pretty sure it can't be a religion unless there's at least a little bit of snake handling and a spiritual leader with a weird beard or a hat or maybe a bow tie on.
