I have the DVD series of Firefly, BattleStar Galactica, and Babylon 5 on my shelf.....when I can I go for marathon sessions of each. watched all of the Firefly episodes the day before seeing Serenity. I was very pleased...and I hope they left it open enough for something more to come out of it, whet...

Okay, I clicked on the link.....and in the listing there it shows MODERN HUMAN. Nothing different than you or me. What does it show us about evolution? not much. Dates are an iffy subject. Modern science tells us that we came into existence within the last 80,000 years or so (which I might add is bu...

Don't pour your hatred for God/Religion out on me, my dear. I went to public school....was taught this stuff. I also went to church..but perhaps the difference is, I never felt like I was being FORCED to believe anything in church. My parents strongly encouraged me to come to my faith of my own acco...

I think that if the will_kill of before shows up again then you may indeed want to change your handle. But, since there doesn't seem to be any other objection to it. Keep it until there is a person that has an issue, discuss it with them if there's a deep personal reason...then you can deal with it ...

The facts [/b] are EVOLUTION IS STILL A THEORY.......Bettina...even those of us in college or beyond agree. It isn't proven, not yet anyways. So please don't insult my intellect by telling me that it's fact. Simply put, it's what you've been taught all your life in a public school system. Therefore ...

We just happen to be here, and we happen to have the history that we have. Evolution theory, chemistry and biology is all I need to understand the rough principles of life and how it came to be. If that is your philosophy and how you choose to view life then you are limiting yourself to a view that...

My point being, Tricord...that because Science is Neutral on the subject of origins...IT HAS TO REMAIN NEUTRAL. Neither system should be presented as fact. There are way too many problems with both views to make a valid scientific analysis regarding which is right. We simply don't have enough SCIENT...

The creationists that I know, aren't trying necessarily to force their theory into schools, but take the evolutionary theory OUT of schools and not put theirs in it's place. Like I said in my post earlier. Take it all out of the public school system, leave the basics without the subjective theories ...

Rush, there's one problem with what you said: the fact that species have evolved, and do evolve, has been proven by scientific research, experimentation, and observation I am not saying that there isn't evidence of MICRO-evolution all around. Adaptation within a species is indeed prevalent. But I a...

We have long since disproven many previous scientific theories by the leaps and bounds that science in and of itself has made over these last hundred years, in an exponential manner. Many of those processes have been refined, changed, altered completely to produce different results that have shaken ...

Although I agree with some of his points, Ferno. I also have to think that he put himself in that particular predicament by showing up with a fake hand grenade. On closer inspection it was revealed to be drilled out and made ineffective. However, just his act of holding something in his hands like t...

If Mount Vernon, WA is too close to the general metro area....Sedro Wooley (which is east of MV) might do the trick.
