    Crevo café (2)

    Yesterday I found a quote, I'm 95% sure it was in the crevo forum. Unfortunately, I can't find it again. It started off with something like: A reply to creationists question (or something). The quote itself was about how a scientist finds his wokr wonderful, and some other stuff. I've even...

    Make me an evolutionist

    But, we can observe a very large number of stars ones at the beginnig through end of their lifetimes, make and test predictions, run simulations (with more prediction making and testing). For example, the CMB was predicted to be present if the big bang theory was indeed true. The CMB was then...

    I don't believe in chickens.

    Chickens don't exist because nothing exists, everything is just an artificial construct of a computer program that we are part of.

    Do you need a miracle?

    How do you define miracle? One of my favorite columns from my favorite magazine: Skeptic I'd write something myself, but I'm tired and have done enough thinking for one day.

    Bonnie and Charley Take Aim at Florida

    If we haven't evacuated, I'm definately taking as many pictures as possible. They have mandatory evacuations for the coastal area, zones a&b (we live in d), and the predicted track is now directly over our house. We're deciding whether or not to evacuate when the 5 am (edt) advisory comes out.

    What is your Favorite Type of Natural Disaster ??

    I voted hurricane... so powerful. Plus, Hurricane Charley is about 24 hours away from hitting my area. Which will be interesting... looks like we'll be within 25 - 50 miles of the eye, and it is forcasted to have 110 mph maximum sustained winds. Plus I live <5 miles from coast.

    Evolution's Wrong Biblically!

    It all depends on your intereptation. If you study what the people who wrote the bible would have known, then you can guess with pretty good certainty what they meant when they wrote it. (I.E., they thought the earth was flat, therefore thats what they wrote in the bible)

    You seem to conclude that if something is possible, it has to happen. It is possible that you could have died in a car accident. But have you? Some species evolve into others. Some species die off. Some differentiate into 5 different species, and all but one die, or none go extinct at all.
