    Yes, You Are

    I don't know about anyone else, but I get so sick and tired of people prefacing their statements with "I'm not a feminist, but..." as if feminist or feminism were dirty words - it happens all the time on these forums, and elsewhere.

    Bibliography for evolution?

    Hey, guys, I'm looking for some good books to read on evolution, primarily on human evolution, and since there seem to be a good number of people here who know what they're talking about, I thought I might ask for advice on what's good and what's not. I've had college biology and physics, and I...

    Hello...

    I've been lurking around on this board for awhile now, and I think I've posted once or twice, but I've finally decided to officially introduce myself, in the hopes of maybe finding a few souls who are in a similar place in their spiritual lives right now. I've been reading and posting at...

    anyone know anything about wrist/hand injuries?

    Hey, guys, I was out biking yesterday when I skidded and fell, landing on my right hand. At first I thought it was just a sprain, but the swelling's been getting worse and worse and I'm experiencing some shooting pains in my thumb and lower hand. My parents think I'm overreacting and being a bit...
