Yes but, their houses are better, food better and their cars better too. Not just their bank accounts and their salaries. Interesting perspectives, though. Glad to hear them. .

And yet you keep posting to a thread you say, "doesn't matter to me one way or the other?" .

If one measures himself against a relative wealth scale, perhaps. But, the question is given your wealth doesn't change at all, you still eat the same quantity and quality of food, your house is the same size, your car the same - in both starboard and port worlds, "which do you prefer?" If...

Wow, I've never seen such misunderstanding of the standard of living. First, your wealth doesn't change one bit, so whether material things mean something to you or not, you stay the same. It's not the question. The question is, "which world do you want to live in?" If your neighbor's...

Two worlds - pick one: Port World: You wake up tomorrow to find everyone in the world is ten-times poorer, but you remain the same. They have one-tenth the money in their bank accounts, large portions of their homes collapsed and their cars mysteriously stop running, but yours are all...

The Higg's Bosun runs Higg's yacht. The Higg's Boson, on the other hand... Neutrons have negligible gravity and gravity has nothing to do with why electrons and protons stay or don't stay together. Electrons and protons naturally attract, both by gravity and by the electromagnetic force, so...

You are not alone GeorgiaGuy. Christians who tacitly support evil, active or passive, aren't really following the old or the new testament. Jesus tirelessly pursued evil. His entire ministry focussed on it. Jesus fought evil at every turn. Is there a single passage where Jesus says "woe...

The bible doesn't only speak to how we should live our lives as individuals, it also delineates what makes a good nation. We choose our leaders. Are they leading us as a nation toward biblical righteousness? Are those politicians granting its citizens the maximum free will possible, as God...

Aren't we voting ourselves into a police state? Not just with Obama, but with all the big-government regimes? When was the last time the needle moved toward freedom? Maybe Reagan? Twenty-four years straight of bigger and more powerful government. Government power exercised against its...

Awesome Christian12. Keep up the good work. You have support, even though mis-readers of the "throw no stones" story balk. You throw no stone, rather admonish against sin - just as Jesus taught. "Righteousness exalts a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people." Prov 14:34 .

Surprised this thread hasn't taken off. Illegal's make well above the minimum wage and they don't pay paycheck taxes. Why do you pay taxes, when they don't? Since they break immigration laws, they get a free pass to break tax-laws too? People think of them picking fruit at $2 per hour...

Wow, lying and false accusing, while improperly using the name of God in the same sentence. You really are a desperate liberal, aren't you? I said the author has responsibility for his title, whether your fanciful story of shirked responsibility is true or not. I never ascribed motive to...

A simple google search turns up dozens of scientists claiming to disprove God. This is the first listing: "God: The Failed Hypothesis: How Science Shows That God Does Not Exist" Victor Stegner There are many more. It's simply not credible to deny science has its atheists and perhaps a...

Upon losing the point, you try to change the subject - typical liberal. You stated publishers and journalists were responsible for the title and failed to provide evidence. A physicist coined the term in the title of his own book that the author was responsible. A physicist wrote the book and...

Nobody held a gun to his head. The author approved the title and for all we know, he thought of it too. You haven't provided evidence (and not some fairy tale made up now that the author might have regrets) for you story either. The author is responsible, so why try to weasel out of it...

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. Your story may or may not be true, it absolutely doesn't matter. The author has ultimate discretion and control of the title. If the physicist didn't like the title, he didn't have to publish it. The author is responsible for the title and the author...

I already posted the reference (Nobel physicist Leon Lederman) who coined the phrase (see post 23 in this thread), so please pay attention. We already fully discussed it. ebia claims a journalist held the physicist at (metaphoric) gunpoint and forced him to rename the book, but the physicist's...

You have google. Why not use it? There's nothing wrong with studying creation. Nothing wrong with asking questions. Nothing wrong with forwarding hypothesis or using working theories. Taking on the mantle of knowledge of the beginning, likening oneself to God or using such theories about...

The arrogance to believe they could build a tower tall enough to sneak into heaven without going through the process God setup? The arrogance to believe they could know what happened in the beginning without God? The arrogance to dismiss Christians for believing in a "magical, mystical god...

No. As boastful as many scientists are, they aren't recreating anything. Rutherford demonstrated that the atom was made of protons, neutrons and electrons, but what are those made of? Off we went to break the subatomic particles into smaller pieces (using accelerators like CERN). Those ever...
