I believe humans adapt. But I don't believe we were monkeys at one time. Adam was created in gods image and god isn't a monkey "god" is an imaginary entity. you may believe in a god, thats fine...but like carl everett said about dinosaurs.... "i aint never seen one". it works both ways Yes, it does. Some of us have faith in a god, some of us have faith that there is no god. None of us can "prove" it one way or another. Hence, at least some faith is required to believe anything. |

we evolved from primates that were the first to venture down from the trees to the ground. they began walking upright to adapt to their new environment, as their current stance and gate was no longer required going from tree to tree. over time, they grew larger...taller, and developed a greater intelligence, many believe, thru the eating of fish (which was an easy and bountiful food source for newly developing carnivores)...which has essential oils that promote brain growth...its why they call tuna "brain food". do this over thousands of years...tada..evolution. Can't buy any of that without proof. Just like you can't buy that God created without proof. We choose to interpret the "evidence" in very different ways. |

We all know this. That is just organisms adapting to their environment. But we do not know that Man evolved from an ape like being. Or that some ancient dinosaur evolved into the animals we on the earth today. I think that's ridiculous. So you think the idea of evolution is ridiculous, but the idea that the world was created in seven days by God, sounds logical? |

On my grandfather's deathbed, he told my cousin that she wasn't his granddaughter because he could never have such a fat pig(he was accurate, she's gross) as a granddaughter. So the rantings of a crazy old dying man can't be taken seriously. LOL, it is at least questionable whether Darwin made a "deathbed confession" or not. Some believe it, some do not. Just like this creation vs. evolution thing. |

Actually, many Israelis are upset because it took Him 6 days to do it. I refuse to engage in a debate. I will discuss this with you guys if you want to do it without malice but I'm not arguing about it. I have argued about it so much I am sick of arguing about it. Either you believe it or you don't. That's it in a nutshell. |

How much money does he have left? hah! you'll need to bankroll this project, he MIGHT be able to bring in donuts and bagels once a month for the office if he budgets himself well. If he aint got no money I aint got no money either so he'll have to borrow and I wont sign any loans. So I guess he's on his own. LOL |

I think the issue here is that the bible is taken by some people as law, but in reality, its closer to the greek & roman & norse, etc...mythologies. All of this shit happened, and there is no advanced science. There has to be some way to explain it. But no one still thinks greek myths and Zeus and Hera and Ares and Hades, etc...really exist, but the stories in the bible are still taken as law by some people. |

I am not going to call anyone stupid because of what they choose to believe. We have freedom of choice and I believe every man should have the right to choose what he believes. Any society that removes that right to choose is anathema to me.

Also. Amy doubts I had about God went away when I held my babies for the first time. How can sperm fertilize an egg and become a beautiful baby without a spiritual touch

I'm not arguing about this. What seems plausible to some is foolishness to others and vice versa. and its what separates intellectuals from allegorical tale worshipers. intellectuals can piece together scientific data and form a plausible opinion based on preceeding facts, or universally accepted theory based on fact. "the good book" folks, cant. its in the book or it isnt. if its not in the book, it isnt real. think about that for a second. there is an element of faith to science, tho...einstein said the 2 cant be totally separated from one another. |

Any society that removes that right to choose is anathema to me. yup people can believe whatever they want. what the rest of the world thinks of those people really shouldnt matter to them. have your faith, keep it sacred...but keep your hands off my abortion clinics. i need those! |

Removing the clinics would not stop abortions. So I have no desire to do that. The right to choose is important and sacred. It is nearly impossible to totally remove that right. |

No, not much, I'm afraid. I've got a lot more faith in Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady. Matt is ineffective without superb protection. Rodgers and Brady can "get around" that problem while Matt can't. Otherwise I have no problem with Ryan. |
