Just because a significant percentage of a given population exhibits a certain attribute, it doesn't make it natural.

Thank you for illustrating my point.

Okay, I've just got to ask, but why in the nine hells would anyone steal a ****** love doll? I mean, it's a used love doll for ****** out loud, what are they going to do with it? On second though, maybe I don't want to know.

Ah, cybersex. Which reminds me: There are several of those floating around the Internet, but that one is my favorite.

This kind of tactic has been around for thousands of years. I mean, just look at those bastards in the cave over in that hill over there. Worshiping their stupid rock. Why can't they just see that our branch is the only true god? Obviously our way of drawing stuff on the walls is much better...

As long as we're pointing out spelling, it's Occam (or Ockham). I was going to mention the Talibans, but someone beat me to it. I never stop being amazed at the sheer determination of the Bush administration. I thought they had hit rock bottom by now, but I'll be damned if those little buggers...

Actually, we did do that. It just turned out that the bible wasn't talking about that heaven. Go figure.

You know, the interesting part is that all the other planets have Roman names, while Uranus is Greek (Caelus is the Roman equivalent). One can only wonder if it was intentional.

Science encourages questioning. That is not a problem. The problem I have with creationism is that it's claimed to be an alternative. Evolution has flaws and creationism has even managed to point out a few (though quite a lot seems to be based on lack of understanding rather than lack of...

It's probably better you don't ask. Much like evolution is not compatible with creationism, neither is evidence or logical reasoning.

So, what's it about? A $25 million flashing sign saying "God did it"?

Given his plan, that'd be the more efficient way to achieve the same result.

Can't say I see any plausible scenario where I'd decide to do anything. If they seem incompetent enough for me to actually do anything, the police will probably get them anyway. Incompetent or not, they are still armed I'm not nearly stupid enough to do anything as heroic as risking my own and...

Now do it with a beam of light. That's far more interesting.

It's pretty stupid, but I really don't care enough to complain about it. I'll just use my readily available option not to watch it. Perhaps if enough people do it, producers will just stop making up things like that eventually. If not, well, they are just giving people what they want.

You're a little confused? What exactly is the question?

I find the main reason why Mac is more stable is because there are no programs to run on it. None that I'm interested in anyway. Switch to a Unix-based system if you really can't stand Windows, but I can't say I have any problems with it. Once all the idiotic help functions are turned off, it's...

It's an expression.

...unlike previous birth control pills?

Ah. Well, if people want to do something they might regret, I suppose that's up to them.

Oh. I've been aware of it, if not fact then at least the possibility, for a while now.

Is this news?

Uh, are you sure they are actually holes and that this particular condom wasn't just a bad one? Some condoms are not smooth but have ridges or other small irregularities, presumably to provide some additional stimulation. Seems fairly suicidal to produce (and use) condoms with holes in them though.

Well, to be fair, there are only so many ways to let people know that they are visitng a hardcore porn site. You'll have to use more exotic phrases eventually if you want to stand out.

Yeah, those ingrates just don't know how to properly appreciate all our kind offers. I mean, it's not like we've ever done anything bad to them. Sheesh.

$3000, no doubt. If I'm that desperate for sex, I can get a more for less with that money anyway. No offense to the lady in question.

To be honest, that was a lot of words used to say considerably less and I'm still not sure what that was supposed to be. There's nothing wrong with porn? Not inherently maybe, but that goes for pretty much anything. Sex is a private thing to many and they may not want to share everything. Hell...

Someone's been spending a bit too much time in New Reno.

If we're talking about the models/whatever; given that the people in question have chosen to both read the comments and put themselves in a situation where such comments are bound to be made, I'm not sure I'm overly concerned. It comes with the territory, and although it may be harsh, it's part...

It has been brought to management's attention that some individuals throughout the company have been using foul language during the course of normal conversation with other employees. Due to complaints received from some employees who are more easily offended, this type of language will no...

Re: Over, Under or even Sideways Down: Your preference in mounting a roll of toilet p Over the top? Over the TOP?! Oh dear God, what is the world comming to.

So, could everyone who is surprised Mr. Phelps is doing something like this raise a hand? Hell, could everyone who didn't know he was the guy this thread was going to be about just from the thread title raise their hands? Short answer; no. Incidentally, that's also the long answer. Their site...

Incidentally the only intelligent contribution Descartes made to philosophy.

After having catched up on her blog, the only apparent thing I can think of that she really needs to do is forgive herself. Ultimately, that's the only one who can, and the only one that truly matters. Guilt (or sin) is a waste. If you're human, you'll make mistakes. The trick is to understand...

Well. It's a good thing I didn't have dinner yet.

"Those who dance are thought mad by those who hear not the music." It's a matter of perspective. One could argue what is sane or not until the cows come home, but in the end, it's more or less decided by a majority vote.

I'm not sure the prospect of a bunch of nervous, inexperienced people practically indistinguishable from the shooter running around with drawn weapons is a good one. Friendly fire strikes me as a distinct possibility. Your best bet is probably to run.

And to no one's great surprise, where there is suffering and death, there's Jack Thompson ready and willing to exploit it as much as he can to peddle his idiocy and further his own career. Way to go, Jack, you da man!

A temporary thing I assume, but the link quite literally produces an error (server too busy). I hope the irony is not lost.

It's a bit linear, true, but it has the best damn plot I've ever seen in a game. Hell, forget games, include movies and books (and with a million words estimated, comparing it to a book is not that far-fetched), and the attention to details is simply amazing if you take the time to look for...

Can't believe you mentioned Mafia and Deus Ex 2, but not Planescape: *******.

Isn't Blu-Ray copy protection cracked yet? Oh well, it'll happen soon enough.

Personally, my proverbial money is on Blu-Ray, but since I don't need either format at the moment and even if I did it wouldn't be worth the cost, my actual money is staying right where it is for now.

Not enough to gain for the increased cost yet as far as I'm concerned. DVDs are quite sufficient for most applications except maybe storing raw data, and both HD-DVD and Blu-Ray are still too expensive to be used for that.

As far as I know, it's a cultural group, not a racial group, the members being people of Spanish descent and/or culture.

Dolly has ****** the expiration date as far as I'm concerned. But hey, if the whole Dracula look is your thing, knock yourself out.

Back to evolution again? Okay, I've got a question for you. If life is so complex that someone must've designed it, why is it that this creator could not have created a complex autonomous system that dynamically (re)designs life as appropriate to the situation instead? Evolution does not deny...

As demonstrated in this thread, debating God is a popular activity. I'm just pointing out that when it comes to God, things are probably not going to make sense from our perspective, compared to the perspective of an omnipotent entity. Raw logic in particular, since it can be shown that such an...

God could, yes. It falls under the omnipotent and/or omniscient label. The omnipotent label also introduce contradiction however, such as the famous rock-so-large-he-couldn't-lift-it argument. That in itself is not proof that God doesn't exist, but it does show that if there is such as thing as...
