    Don't Ask, Don't Tell - WHY?

    Isn't this an entirely inexcusible policy? At a time where the republicans not only treated the issue of torture as if it is a genuine ethical debate but also that it apparently won that debate for a time, is it really okay to continue a policy that hurts us more than helps us? Can we really...

    Post-Flood Marsupial Migration Explained

    yes science uses biological indicators of relatedness and detailed comparison of skeletons to evaluate evolutionary relationships. What is wrong with that? skeletal features exclusive to a group is compelling evidence of relatedness especially since the biological realities of descent have long...

    Design process

    To say that God did it is a non answer because if you believe in God and something exists then you think God made it. It's a restatement of the observation that it exists. The question cannot be IF God did it, but HOW God did it. Could evolution be the method that God used to design? Was it...
