I don't feel that I am. But the universe could care less about me. Do you know there will come a time when someone has the last ever thought about you...

Evolution isn't random. But Gregory himself is a chance occurrence. An accident of nature. As we Ll are. Think of everything that had to happen exactl...

Understand it as to our origins. It's good to know where we came from. It explains so much. And the galactic amount of evidence for that process means...

Don't listen to people who would term it a banal tautology. They are exhibiting a lack of knowledge of the process. You'll learn nothing from them. An...

Well, you have your choice. You can accept the universe as it is, and our insignificant position within it. Or you can claim that it was all made for ...

I try to keep the tone as I would if I were talking to someone iin a bar. The discussion might get a little robust but I try not to say anything in a ...

It would be the term itself in t'other forum. An immediate ban for it.

No doubt he can be. I'm sure some fundamentalists would think so.

The odds that everything had to happen exactly as it did to end up with you sitting there reading this are so astronomically small as to be effectivel...

Maybe you have a Great Dane. It has puppies. You pick the smallest and breed from that one. Then you pick the smallest from that litter and breed agai...

If the mutation was beneficial (they more than likely are not) then the individual will have a slightly better chance at surviving and passing on the ...

I didn't know I had a burden of proof. Especially as I have nothing to prove. I'm equally sure I don't have to justify any position I hold. If you mak...
