the know it all gene

What would happen IF science and the media could live for one day absolutely in accord with their stated belief system and philosophy of life ? ? “mates are selected for genetic worth” ? ? ?

If for one day science and the media said that in fact since evolution is a fact it is really true that THERE IS NO REASON WHY MATES ARE SELECTED – IN POINT OF FACT THEY ARE NOT! What, you try to teach us evolution for years and years … “it all happened by chance” and now you wish us to believe that there really was / is a REASON for us to look for a mate ? ? ? Oh, we ARE getting better and better all the time ! !

What IS better ? ? ?
WHY oh WHY do we spend ALL this time and money looking for the most unintelligent design scientist we can find to figure out Why it all happened …………..

IF what you have been teaching me all these years IS true then for crying out loud THERE IS NO REASON ! NO intelligent design – no reason ! ! !

Time to pop a plug into the black hole that is slurping down all that brain drain and fourth dimentional and $$$ what ever that is ……. Why do these scientists and media people and universe proferers insist on getting paid for what they do? ? ?

genetic worth

“ the fact that one can be genetically predisposed to baldness suggests that losing one's hair has (or had) some evolutionary advantage. Since mates are selected for genetic worth, a physical trait that boasts of some genetic edge is more likely to spread throughout a species.

A shiny pate may indicate a man's advanced stage of physical and social maturity. This could encourage increased status in a social group as well as less aggressive behavior from other males, as the bald man is visibly past the threatening stage of high sexual activity, and perhaps more likely to be a nurturer to younger groups as well.

This could be a selling point to women looking to mate. "

Definition

“ Defining the word theory is tricky. Scientists use it one way, the average Joe another.
In casual parlance, a theory is basically an idea or thought. It probably has no carefully collected data to back it up, let alone any rigorous hypothesis testing or experiments. In the world of science, however, a theory is a broad explanation of a phenomenon or phenomena that is testable, falsifiable and has multiple lines of evidence.
the process of asking and answering questions by experimentation. The method exists to ensure that science is as accurate as possible in explaining the world and that arguments rely on observable evidence. The main components of the scientific method are that experiments should be repeatable, so other scientists can verify or nullify the results; data should be collected by observation and experimentation; and experiments should be documented and shared.

a theory is never proven and can always be revised. Experiments testing a theory either corroborate it or falsify it.

In general, a law is said to be without exception,

said Grünbaum. Yes, evolution is a theory, but a theory supported by an enormous body of evidence.

There is no way to test the theory of evolution ! There is NO evidence to support it ! There is NO way to repeat any “experiment” that would either verify or falsify the theory ! NO one has EVER done ANY experiment in the area of the theory of evolution.

Think ! !

There are NO lines of evidence that evolution took or is taking place. Only in the imagination of the people who are advocating it.

If there is a scientist INTELLIGENT enough to set up an experiment to either verify or falsify evolution, that has already defeated the usefulness of it. IF a rational INTELLIGENT scientist sets up an experiment to either verify or falsify some point of the process of evolution it becomes INTELLIGENT DESIGN !!!!!!!!!! Kind of like if you try to see a sub atomic particle you change it simply by the act of seeing it. Evolution would have to exclude the possibility that an experiment could be set up. Could a cow evolve into a whale? Could a scientist conceive a set of experiments to see if that could happen with genetic manipulation? Maybe. BUT that would Neither prove or disprove that it could happen BY CHANCE !

The missing link

“Astronomers have been able to capture and record the first moments when a massive star blows itself apart.
Astronomers say that supernovas are part of the story of how we came to be, because these tremendous explosions created many of the heavy elements from which planets are made.”

So while one “scientist” tells the world in loud strident rancorous tones that religious nuts can not try to tell the world how we came to be and that science does not attempt to be philosophical; here we have a loud declaration that in fact we owe our existence to … anything but God.

Have you Ever tried to figure out how light from a source 20 billion light years away reaches the earth? That’s 20 times a billion times 186,000 (miles light travels in one second) times 3600 (seconds in an hour) times 8760 (hours in a year). Count up the zeros – 16 ! – 10,000,000,000,000,000 - do the rest of the math yourself. 2x186x36x876 ……. Miles. Traveling at the speed of light it would only take you 20,000,000,000 years to get there.

“US researchers studied primates climbing and walking on treadmills.
They say there was no difference in energy consumption for small primates, giving clues to how their ancestors entered the trees 65 million years ago.
Dr Jandy Hanna of Duke University, Durham, North Carolina, said the data suggested that the earliest primates were able to exploit a new environment without added cost if they remained small.”

Funny isn’t it? Evolution is a fact. Why do we spend so much time and money using ‘intelligent’ reasons for it, ‘The earliest primates were able to exploit …..’ ? (it looks like the only exploiters are those who use this connotation laden language to justify their otherwise useless expenditure of their God given brains and time and effort and our $$$) If it WAS evolution it just happened – there was NO reason – SO lets save all that time and money and send all those super university brains down to Sierra Leon to solve the poverty problem there. Why do we HAVE to suffer ALLLLL this Endlessssss rhetoric going on and on and on and on about something that just happened? If those super brains reallllllly believe evolution why don’t they shut up about it – why does it neeeeed defending – and get on with building what we have got now? Why do all the SF writers go on and on about terraforming the universe when we have all that super brain power here and a very large percent of the earth itself that needs terra forming and a whole lot of people who could use the extra real estate ? ? ?


Funny isn’t it. Belief in God is ‘childish’ but the daily news paper horror scope is untouched (and untouchable) …………

Bizarre

“Scientists have pinned down the fastest-known evolving animal — a ‘living dinosaur’ called a tuatara. The tuatara, Sphendon punctatus, resembles a lizard and is found only in New Zealand. It is the only surviving member of a reptilian order Sphehodontia that lived alongside early dinosaurs and separated from other reptiles 200 million years ago in the Upper Triassic period.
To make the estimate of evolutionary speed, researchers recovered DNA sequences from the bones of ancient tuatara. The team found that although tuatara have remained largely unchanged physically over very long periods of evolution, they are evolving — at a DNA level — faster than any other animal yet examined.
[“ancient” tuatara???]
[“largely unchanged over very long periods of evolution”?? If they were unchanged it wasn’t evolution was it?]
The tuatara rate is significantly faster than for other animals that have been studied, including the lion, ox, horse and the now-extinct cave bear.
We want to go on and measure the rate of molecular evolution for humans. There are human mummies in the Andes and some very good samples in Siberia where we have some collaborators, so we are hopeful we will be able to measure the rate of human evolution in these animals too.”
[???]

Humans are arguably the most bizarre creatures in the animal kingdom. The proof is in the many gross, unnecessary, contradictory and simply inexplicable things we do. And of course we're different in our capacity to ponder all these oddities and sometimes figure a few out.

[“bizarre”??]
[What is the oldest DNA that is recoverable? “DNA IS a most notoriously unstable molecule” ! ! So how can this bizarre animal decide that there IS evolution going on by looking at “changes” over a few thousand years ? ? ? What a superb piece of writing “Scientists have pinned down the fastest-known evolving animal …” IF you don’t have a leg to stand on but you still want to prove that evolution is a fact ! Once again if this bizarre animal faced capital punishment on this kind of proof how evolutionized would he act ? ?]

au naturale

our meaty diet is laden with greenhouse gases, and trying to reduce them throws up some unpalatable choices.
It has prompted the Vegetarian Society to take out adverts in the paper declaring that our carnivorous tastes are a "silent but deadly" assault on our climate.
Cows and sheep are ruminants which means their digestion produces much methane, a gas with about 20 times the global warming power per puff than carbon dioxide.
Housing animals gives humans control. The diet can be precisely manipulated to maximise growth and minimise polluting gases.
Animals do not waste food energy on running about and keeping warm. Their manure can be collected and burned as a fuel, avoiding damaging evaporation and seepage into rivers.
In the future, it is hoped that sealed barns would have exhaust vents where the harmful gases could be captured before they entered the atmosphere.
"Organic poultry meat has about 45% more global warming potential than indoor-reared poultry meat.

How come au naturale (nude beach) is only good for people ?

I guess I shouldn't be to loud or soon cities will be housed in sealed mega buildings.

Wiki says NY city is 322 sq miles / 8.2 million people. Soooo if we built one building say 100 sq miles - 10 miles by 10 miles ? ? ? Go high enough we could cut it down to 8 by 8 miles ? ? ?

We could do that !

Scientific principles

The Templeton Prizes has been awarded by The Duke. Michael Heller, a Polish priest this year. Billy Graham, Charles Colson and Alexander Solzhenitsyn among others have received it. Mother Teresa was first in 1973. The prize is bigger than the Nobel Prize.

"Templeton and his Foundation work on the premise that scientific principles of evolution and the idea of God as Creator are compatible."

The Bible does not leave rooooom for evolution.

The evolutionary theory is not based on scientific principles. There is no way to disprove it. There are a number of scientific experiments going on in the world right now that started many years ago. The scientists that started them have long since passed away BUT we know what the conditions were at the beginning of the experiment ! We know where it started, the originators left detailed written records and we can follow the facts since then. NO one was there when evolution started. We have NO idea what ever, EXCEPT in someone's imagination, what the first generation after the big bang was like.

The Bible says that someone was there when the world and all that is in and around it was created. And it gives a written record from the first generation that was part of it, of what happened. We know how it started !

What's in a name

“Campaigners on the Greek island of Lesbos are to go to court in an attempt to stop a gay rights organisation from using the term "lesbian".
The islanders say that if they are successful they may then start to fight the word lesbian internationally.
The issue boils down to who has the right to call themselves Lesbians.
Is it gay women, or the 100,000 people living on Greece's third biggest island - plus another 250,000 expatriates who originate from Lesbos?
An early court date has now been set for judges to decide whether to grant an injunction against the Homosexual and Lesbian Community of Greece and to order it to change its name.
A spokeswoman for the group has described the case as a groundless violation of freedom of expression, and has pledged to fight it.”

‘Groundless violation of freedom of expression’ indeed !

May be we can reclaim the word gay?
What of the girl named Gay? What of her freedom?
