It actually does not have to involve sex, since you can choose not to do that... but otherwise that is the best definition of it I've yet to hear.
I just recently got into doing that kind of thing, since I finally have someone that I trust to that level... it's interesting how much closer doing that brings people. |

Random fact: The majority of the founding fathers of the United States were Diests, not Christians. They are simular, but not really the same... borderline Atheists really.
Now, seeing as I don't follow the Christian religion in any way I can give this as my honest insight. I find it offensive to have the Ten Commandments there. Why? Because it does promote Christianity over other religions. "Oh they should have the right"... so should I then. However, if a courthouse was to put a pentacle on their lawn or in the courthouse at all people would have a meltdown and demand that it be removed. In many areas the same would happen with a Star of David or any other symbol or doctrine. If the 7 gifts of Druidry were posted or the 13 goals of a Wiccan, people would demand them to be removed. Don't even try to say that it isn't true, because you know damn well that it is! |

She walked up to him and put the dagger to his throat, slicing it open with ease* "Let's hope it's permanent this time... but if it's not, then at least he's not going anywhere." |

They still say the Pledge Torque. I will start a separate thread on that just to keep this one on topic.
Kaijin, I don't know why you think it is, but evolution is not a religion, it is a scientific theory. To say that means that you think it is otherwise, and that is rediculous. |

We didn't evolve downward, just differently. There is a current evidence that the Chimpanzee is not our closest relative, but that it is the Bonobo, a rare and near extinct primate that seems to be closer in appearance at least to australopithecines (the prehuman that chimps, bonobos, and humans are believed to evolved from). I found a very interesting article on the subject actually.
Also, explain why the salt content of the ocean contradicts evolution. Oh, and I assume when you mention the magnetic field you are talking about Earth's magnetic field, right? There have been many arguments about that, like this one that show that the Creation Science theory is wrong. (Last edited by Elara on 03-03-05 07:07 PM) |

Children, don't make me turn this board around! *said in mom-voice*
I kinda get what you mean Kaijin, but the way you said it made it seem otherwise. And why would all controversies have to suddenly be avoided just because the Ten Commandments was taken down from the couthouses? Each should be delt with separetly. I personally like George Carlin's version of the Ten Commandments, since he breaks them down to two: whole monologue herel. |

One of the biggest debates you hear about lately is weither or not "Under God" should remain on our currency and in the Pledge of Alligence. What are your thoughts on the matter?
Here is a few facts to think about before I give my opinion: The words were not added to either thing until 1954, before that they were not in the Pledge or on our money. If you've lived in a hole and don't know, during the 50s we were in the beginning of the Cold War with the vastly Atheist Soviet Union. The words were added to make it seem as we had "God's favor in a battle with a Godless nation". That was the purpose of the words. I feel we don't need them, we didn't have them at the beginning and I prefer it without. I never said the Pledge in high school for that reason. |

Well, I must say that all the pics posted are very hot. That last one though... I mean, she looks hot and all, but the breasts are just too big, it looks crappy and fake. | |||

I have only one of their CDs sadly, but it's Century Child so I'm happy. Cryus has Once, so yeah. Century Child has Phantom of the Opera and Once has I Wish I Had An Angel. Gods the songs on those albums just kick ass. I love the female singers' voice, and the male singer is just...well... he kicks ass. | |||

Actually most of the Founding Fathers of this country were Deists, which are like borderline Atheists, and they based our Constitution and the vision of this nation off of the philosophy of John Locke. | |||

You do have your gruff moments Kaijin, don't deny it.
But yeah, anywho... Pockets, you want your chaos? Just remember what I am planning for my wedding... whenever that is, heh heh. Oh the chaos! |

ABC News Online
An independent team of international scientists has backed Australian scientists' claim that the bones of "the hobbit" found on an Indonesian island is a new species of human being. In one of the biggest scientific discoveries ever, the bones were uncovered on the island of Flores by a team of Australians. But since they announced the find through a research article in Nature magazine in October last year, controversy has raged about the true nature of the remains. The Australian scientists' critics say the bones are only those of a diseased human and not a new relative. The team's scientific reputation has been hanging on the independent team's finding. Cat scans Dr Dean Falk from Florida State University, who led the independent team, used cat-scans to generate a three-dimensional image of the hobbit's brain. She has compared it to the brains of a female human, homo erectus and chimpanzee. "When I began researching the brain evolution, I was very sceptical, and I came around to realising that they had to struggle with it - that what the brain tells me is they got it right," she said. The international team's findings, published in the journal Science, are a relief to Australian team member Dr Richard Roberts, from the University of Wollongong. Dr Roberts dated the original find. He says today's published evidence proves the hobbit is not a deformed human or someone suffering from a brain disorder known as microcephaly. "I think it's a sensational find, and that there are two major conclusions - the first of which is that the brain of the hobbit is completely unlike that of a microcephalic person... a deformed person that some people have been claiming that's all the hobbit was," he said. "It's also completely unlike that of a pygmy, a modern pygmy. "But it does have features that are incredibly interesting, because they've got a very well developed frontal lobe." Microcephaly dispute However, critics of the independent team's investigation claim Dr Falk did not did not use a skull with the correct example of the brain disorder known as microcephaly. It is a claim Dr Falk rejects. "This was not a paper which was doing the be-all and end-all of secondary microcephaly, which is a very nebulous catch-all term," she said. "The burden of proof on those people who say 'it's a microcephalic' is go out there, do a scientific study, and now we offer you some new information with which to form a testable hypothesis." Dr Roberts also issues the same challenge to his critics. "It's really time to put up or shut up in that regard," he said. "Now with their backs to the wall I think it's time for them to put everything they think down on paper, and we can decide whether it actually stands up scientifically or not." Origins Dr Roberts is still open to the possibility his team may be wrong. One last challenge for the scientists is to prove the hobbit's origins as conclusively as possible by using DNA. "What was the ancient DNA like of this type of extinct human?" Dr Roberts said. "If it turns out to be modern human DNA, that would be an absolutely staggering finding, because you have to say well how can that be so, how can we have modern DNA look completely unlike us with a brain completely unlike ours. "That would be a serious fly in the ointment, so we do want to DNA analysis of our own on the skeletal material. That will be the final nail in the coffin for the microcephaly argument."
