With around 3½ billion guys in the world, I doubt you're the only one who is sensible. Having sex with women is "disgusting crap"? The trait evolved because it increases fitness. There's always variation though, so there will always be people with no interest in sex, and people consumed...

Being a good person requires alot more. I'm sure there are alot of serial killers throughout the ages who haven't abused alcohol or drugs. Doesn't mean that they are good people. Substance dependence can reveal some emotional and/or biochemical vulnerabilities, but it has nothing to do with...

From an creationist standpoint, the sloth is... well.... slow, too. Whether you accept evolution or creationism, a creature being able to survive in its environment is expected, isn't it? Anyway, it seems kinda strange to see a creationist argue "this is so poorly designed, it has to be by...

Made up answers are always easy. Studying the world to try to find out what really happened, is very hard and clear answers sometimes can't be found. If evolutionists had the same propensity to make up answers, as creationists do, we would just do that, instead of admitting that some questions...

If that's all you got out of those verses, I'm sure you must find whoever wrote them to be tediously verbose. Additionally, pointing out that men and animals die, is like pointing out that the sky is blue. You really think that your holy book would dedicate more than 100 words to pointing out...

Joseph, here's a subforum on depression-> http://www.christianforums.com/f393/ I'm sure you can get some support and help there. Peter :)

Peter :)

Curiously, I've always considered the RNA World as an early stage in evolution; not an abiogenesis hypothesis. It's certainly explained elegantly and perfectly scored by Ludwig. Indeed, shame he stopped uploading videos a couple of years ago. Potholer is my favourite science geek on youtube...

:) First, it needs to be said that I don't judge the entirety of a person as arrogant just because I consider aspects of their belief system arrogant. A person can be very humble in some ways, and arrogant in others. Humans are complex after all. There are lots of Christians who are wonderful...

Hello Metal Minister, nice to "meet" you. :) I don't normally write posts as long as this one, but you sound like a decent chap, so I decided to invest some extra time and effort. I don't feel that any particular explanation is true. None of us truly knows, and I find it arrogant to have a...

It's curious how some Christians on one hand rave about objective morality, but when it comes to the morality concerning things like child murder, genocide and slavery, they quickly turn to moral relativism and an apparent inability to take a strong stance. The cognitive dissonance couldn't be...

It shouldn't be. It's part of our nature, except for people who are sexually defective. Peter :)

Metal music is aggressive, so I can understand why certain Christian groups have associated it with Satan. In my younger days I used to listen to this type of music, but even though it is aggressive, it never made me feel aggressive or behave in an aggressive way. On the contrary, I found it...

What law says that? Does it specifically say that you cannot defend yourself in the event of a home invasion? Or does it say that killing the guy cannot be justified in every situation? What exactly is the law? Peter :)

I can sympathize with your feelings about the event, except I find it abhorrent that you would be willing to lie to the police about such a thing. I think most of us fantasize about putting people like that in their place with a well placed uppercut or a karate kick. But it's generally a very...

Archeopteryx didn't evolve feathers, it inherited them. Likely feathers initially evolved for thermal insulation, but has since been co-opted for display, gliding and flight. Peter :)

If the dinosaur is Dino Tank, you won't stand a chance. UltraSeven vs Dino-Tank - YouTube Peter :cool:

Wow, that's cold. I don't get how people can behave like that. I think it should be taken as a sign for you to move on. If she's such a horrible person, she doesn't deserve your guilt and regrets. She deserves to be forgotten. Peter :)

Why is the Moon made of Jell-O? Peter :P

They have been evolving all these years as well, and they are hugely successful; human success is not even comparable. Fun fact: There are 10 times more bacterial cells in and on the human body than there are human cells. We're basically their vehicles. Why assume intent? Bunny wabbits...
