i have no problem with people that believe in a deity of one kind or another. i get a problem when they say things like "evolution is only a theory" as if there is an equal amount of doubt concerning evolution when compared to the existence of god.
Err....as far as I've gathered from this thread, there's only 2 actual scientists here. Myself and Gumble. Anyone else?
We both also work very closely with evolution, though I'm more on the medical side of things with immunology, microbiology and molecular biology.

what exactly makes you a scientist?
you have some degree? a degree is basically just proof you know *something* about some related topics to the degree...

lol @ the "scientists" of this thread, so quick to bash the hell out of people who talk of a higher being. its like scientists are more defensive about religion, than religious people are about science.
I got no problems with people believe in a god, flying spaghetti monter, teacup orbiting the sun, whatever they want. What I do have a problem is is when they try to force it onto other people. But its not the scientists insisting stickers are put on bibles saying that the contents are theory and not fact, or scientists placing demands on what is taught during religious education. Only religious zealots are playing it that way.

Yes, a degree makes you a scientist. I'm not saying people's points aren't valid, I'd just like to know how many actual proper scientists are here as people are making it seem like everyone is a proper scientist here.

I second that. Couldn't agree more.
By the way Flying Spagetti Monster is the one true GOD. Evidence is out there by the declining pirate numbers!

Then they weren't aliens, they were a just a different species of an earth inhabitant that just forgot to draw the shit on the wall
By the way Scotty this thread is fucking LOL
Getting back to drawings. A 'human' way to explain shit is through drawings or some kind of scribed text. Maybe one form communication between whatever civilizations that may have resided back then was to leave perfect fuck off giant triangles in the sand!
Who seriously fucking knows/cares but hey let's all continue to argue because fuck what else can a human being do these days? We could write a billion pages of educated research titled 'who gives a shit' or we could make porcelain statues of imaginative iconic images, all drop to our knees and yell fucken 'wooosa'
Some shit may not be out there for 'us' to understand or explain but for completely different reasons that only defies 'human' logic. Its 'our' nature to 'want' to find out, have something explained or just believe in our own fucking bullshit. Human beings are such a confused bunch of retarded khunts who, in the end, just love hate each other and 'prove' each other wrong all the time. We're ALL just human beings nothing more, nothing less. Whether it's science or religion it's all just a human argument and means completely FUCK ALL in the general scheme of why the earth is here. Who cares why, it just fucken is and the 'why' is put there by us because we neeeeeeeeeeed to know stuff ... WE'VE GOT NOTHING BETTER TO DO FFS!
We seriously really don't have a purpose on this earth apart from being born 'doing some personal fucken whatever meaningful shit' and dying. What else is there? WHAT ELSE IS THERE?????
play choonz and smile khuntz
Mad ..
