    The Watchmaker Revisited

    To me the watch maker idea of religious thinkers is what I call a "Top Down approach", intelligent design. The grand designer makes a cozy little world and puts his windup toys on it, scatters some stars about, grabs some popcorn, and sits back and watches with humor as the little toys beat the...

    How we know that there was no Flood of Noah.

    I am sure the legend of noah probably had its roots in localised flooding after the last ice age where several flood breaches occurred, eg the english channel, Gibraltar Straits and the flooding of the Black sea basin were all fairly recent events overlapping the time humans appeared and moved...

    ''Perpetual'' free energy cell

    If you wobble the quartz sheet it will generate a small electric potential and heat so there is loss. Oscillations in the MHz range would be required to generate modest power The process you describe is an oscillation driven by the volume kinetics of water locked in a cube driven by heat energy...

    Remember you are looking at these numbers as decimal base 10 What if the unit was another base X? Base pi? Could Pi become rational? Cheers

    Can explicit atheists ever really understand atheism?

    Am I religious, agnostic or atheist? If GOD = Nature - the universe, where the physical laws of mathematics, physics, chemistry, mass and energy equivalence, in a space-time continuum are determinant. Then I am a believer. It is purely semantic whether I could use the word god or nature...

    How well defined must our idea of a god or a gods be before we can claim to believe (or disbelieve)

    God is a gap filler, anything unexplainable or unknown is god. It is not so much that god exists, but as a default position of logic that if we can't explain it, it must be of some unknown higher power ( a very shakey axiom) so the more you don't know about the universe the more valid god...

    2008 proved that the USA is definitely a "Greed is Good" apostle Cheers

    Why are blatant inaccuracies accepted in politics?

    Yes I remember those days, Netscape beta 0.8, but I noticed just like here open discussion/arguement saw truth come through. and while these things are true, it is a little dishonest to presume that these represent the total internet content of the web at the time. Newspapers existed with real...

    It's the Guns.

    I thought this was the 21st century not the 16th century. Times change mate! Cheers

    Why are blatant inaccuracies accepted in politics?

    Because once the world, not so long ago, was based on truth confirmed by intelligent internet searches. Now the world is based on perceptions, true or false, compounded by confusion, as internet now disseminates more false information than the truth these days. Cavet Emptor Cheers

    Donald Trump For Nobel Peace Prize 2018!

    If Trump got a Nobel Prize it would severely diminish the nobility and standing of this eminent award in my opinion.

    Video games, abortion, and separation of church & state to blame for school shootings?

    Is the USA the only country in the world that should issue Bullet proof vests as part of all school uniforms? This would surely reduce the number of deaths per school shooting that currently appear to occur on average every 2 months. However it does not address the elephant in the room. If you...

    Are Gun-Owners Delusional, Dishonest, Indifferent or Just Ignorant of the Evidence?

    Americans are unique in the western world they still have the death penalty and are a wash with lethal weapons. No simple answer, as paranoid rednecks expect the conspiracies of secret government agendas to be true and must defend themselves like John Wayne and Davy Crocket, answering all...

    Does our Democratic Republic really work? (USA)

    Make voting compulsory. If the last US Election had compulsory voting, I don't think Trump would be in the white house now. Cheers

    Evidence of the Great Flood has been found; or not?

    These are not the result of "the Great Flood" although I am sure there are many wet periods over the eons. All the examples are instead the effect of droplets of rain and puffs of air over BILLIONS of Years. Have you of any of the people you quote, actually gone to the areas mentioned with a...

    Las Vegas Shooting

    I agree banning anything does not work, it just creates a worse, more dangerous black market with no controls. Any approach to sensible gun control is inhibited in America, as it is saturated with firearms already, making it almost impossible to control - the genie is out of the bottle. This...

    A Universe from Nothing?

    The earth spins, the other planets and moons spin, the sun spins, stars spin, galaxies spin, the universe spins. Canadian and russian calculations have estimated the current rotational rate of the universe. It is tiny, measured in only metres per second. Hubble demonstrated the universe is...
