Slime molds acclimate to chemical after repeated exposure then lose that acclimation after not being exposed to it. How did you jump the shark all the way into awareness? The study is interesting but it doesn't begin to approach the questions you want to ask.

Except for that whole part of the story where John goes all "but but you should be baptizing me!" and such. Your characterization of the story is not accurate and seems quite twisted to try and make it fit into an argument that is itself pretty flimsy as there is no reason for a mythological...

Neogaia777, do yourself a favor and watch some 'What the Bleep do we know anyway?' debunk videos or read some of the debunk articles written about it. Its sad to see you taking this stuff as being true when you were simply being lied to from beginning to end.

None of the Gospels in the Bible were written by anyone that saw Jesus alive, assuming he lived of course. I don't have much of a stance on that because I don't believe whether or not there was a real person that the myths were based is actually important.

Not a new thing, not a small thing and not an anomaly. Its a trend that has existed for at least 6 years now but it gets very little press because it doesn't fit into the narrative. Single, childless women earn 8% more than men in nearly every single large city in America. In some cities.. oh...

Why do people go and make their text huge? All it does is send off red flags that whatever it is they've written isn't worth reading. All you've done GXG is repeat and repeat and repeat, making your text bigger or changing its color doesn't make it any more persuasive or make it any more accurate.

So did you actually read any of the articles or the paper itself before you made that post?

You're assuming a causal relationship and as SciAmerican pointed out there is no reason to believe there is such a relationship presently. The study also does not draw the kind of conclusions in its discussion as you are. You are wanting the study to tell us that the issue is Atheism vs Religion...

I think Scientific American has the most important sentence in the whole concept "More importantly, the causal relationship between brain findings and religion is difficult to clearly establish." We've got no reason to believe presently that your Atheism or Religious belief is the cause rather...

We kicked Pluto out because it wasn't fair to Ceres to let Pluto in the first place. Poor Ceres already got kicked out a century before Pluto was discovered.

The Wikipedia on Einstein's Religious views is presently in a pretty bad state despite its outward appearances. As you've quoted from the "Atheism" section of it I may as well point out how its gone bad. It starts with "Einstein stated in his final letter: 'I am not an atheist.' " Citing the...

You seem to be lost, this is the Science section, not the "post crazy weird theology" section.

Well, if you can grow a decent beard then you've got an easy way to do it.

I'd hazard to say that the people that were there 8 years after Alexander for the siege of Antigonus in the 'New Tyre' as you would want to call it, were the same people that lived there before Alexander. Since they were the same people I would say that yes, Phoenicians rebuilt Tyre, and that...

Well that got dealt with really quick and went into its own circular round about of mutual inability to convince the other side that they're wrong. So now we're onto the *next* circular roundabout that always happens in these threads. We're working on our bonus points for retreading a tired old...

What city did Antigonus lay siege to in 315BCE? You know, that city.. called Tyre... that Antigonus put under siege 8 years after Tyre was 'wiped off the face of the Earth never to ever ever ever be rebuilt' by Alexander? Oh and uh the King of Tyre? He was uh, left in charge of... um.. Tyre. By...

Its amazing how useful it is to fall back on prophecies being 'poetic', ie, vague, and readable in whatever way you want it to be. A poetic prophecy is a worthless prophecy. The other sort of amusing thing to the whole Tyre prophecy is that Tyre never *stopped* existing. Alexander didn't level...

Ah I get it, you just like playing games, making things up and not answering questions. Have a blessed day mate. And no mate, who said anything about you? How about the Guy this happened to, the Newspaper, the Documentary crew and the publisher that cashed the book deal for this event.

Come on now AV, you know me by now. Its quite a serious claim you are making. Got it, so no evidence of your serious claim, that started out vague, then became as specific and extraordinary as you needed it to be when you needed it to be. Of course it is. Do I? That's interesting.. how...

So lets see the local news paper article with dates, photos, doctors testimonials etc... that such an event would actually bring about. Yes, I'm saying you're either lying or exaggerating to such a tremendous degree the difference is negligible.
