    A little sanity, at long last!

    That was a movie about a a drug-fueled car chase through the Nevada desert. About bennies, the other gateway drug. So yeah, in a way it was drugs that got her all nekkid on a bike. :D

    What do we know about GMOs?

    A GMO, or Genetically Modified Organism, is an organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. That is not even close to selective breeding. Selective breeding is like two people with two different sets of genes, say, Barbie and Ken, being paired up by a...

    A little sanity, at long last!

    It'll seem that way if you don't understand evolution. God and evolution aren't necessarily mutually exclusive. One of the biggest misconceptions about evolution is that it's purpose is to disprove the existence of God. But religion and God aren't the same thing, either. Science has caused...

    That's an illusory corollary of cause. It doesn't mean pot is the gateway drug, as whatever drug they used first, regardless of what it is, would be the "gateway" drug. The reason it's a gateway drug for some is because they're predisposed to that sort of thing, and whether it's pot or something...

    Just another one of many who hasn't studied and doesn't understand evolution. If he did, he wouldn't use the work "doctrine" to describe it. Doctrine is dogma, a creed or body of teachings of a religious, political, or philosophical group presented for acceptance or belief. Evolution works...

    The American National Religion

    Nevertheless, the vested interest in the study isn't all that clear, at least not to me. I can see several vested interests beyond just the one you listed, and the one you listed as being one of the minor ones, at that. The more weighted and critical vested interest would be, it seems to me, to...

    Your cousin, Otter. :D OK, the reality is, despite the allegation of me trying to convince someone of something they are not going to believe in, that's not something I'm going to be able to do. It's impossible. But what is also a reality is, we can't have that many idiots out there in science...

    I'm not trying to do anything. I'm simply accepting the evidence for what it is, rather than discarding the evidence in favor of a belief.

    The falsehoods, and ignorance on that page are laughable. "The types of bird beaks, the colors of moths, leg sizes, etc. are variation. Each type and length of beak a finch can have is already in the gene pool and adaptive mechanisms of finches." The DNA of finches show that each type of...

    A little sanity, at long last!

    $60/eighth (about 2.5 grams) is about the going street rate. Or $20 a gram, or $200 an ounce 28 grams). Which is why people buy an ounce for $200 and then sell it to their friends to $20 a gram. :D And the first official buyer of legal pot? An Iraqi war veteran. I'm assuming the pot-laden...

    The American National Religion

    Not sure that that's really all that clear. The DOD certainly has a vested interest in the study, but I don't see any clarity in the study to support such a conclusion of a particular vested interest in a particular outcome. The purpose of the analysis wasn't to reach some predetermined outcome...

    Extreme Cowardice

    And once again, my point is, you believe "they" to be the same people in both cases. "They" are not. RLENT's "Final observations" paragraph above is spot on.

    It's not even an argument. It's a question. Intellectual curiosity. It's who we are. To be human is to be curious, to explore, and inquisitive. The most fundamental questions of humanity are, and have been since we were first able to ask them: Were did we come from? Are we alone? Religion...
