    god belief

    Well, "good" and "evil" could possibly be explained by the way they define each other. One is meaningless without the other, so it follows that both must exist and it's up to us to do the best we can. The omniscient thing is harder though, and I've got nothing there. A couple of years ago, I...

    Scientists plan interspecies cloning

    Science is a "figment of the imagination". But it has undeniably produced results and improved our lives, something that we can only speculate that religion has. The key difference is that belief is subjective, science is objective. Another key difference is that while God stands and falls on...

    Scientists plan interspecies cloning

    Seriously. Evil? Dr. Moreau? Did anyone even read the article or just jump to conclusions at the misleading use of "interspecies cloning"? The issue has nothing to do with using eggs from another species, it has to do with using human DNA in those eggs. No one is going to mix human and ******...

    Scientists plan interspecies cloning

    As long as no ****** DNA remains in the egg, I don't see any big problems with it. It's not going to create hybrids or anything, it's more like wearing clothes made from ****** skin. Whether cloning in general is ethical is another question, but I can't say this particular method would be the...

    Where did all my rep power go to?

    Yes, it was a black day for us all. Many, unable to cope with the loss of years of hard work and investement, chose instead to throw themselves from, uh, well, their parents basements rather than facing their plummeting popularity.

    god belief

    Didn't think you were, only the first line of my post was specifically directed at you. The rest was just a brief explanation of the concept. Although it should be noted that scientists also use theory in the informal manner, so you'll have to mind the context to avoid confusion. It's when...

    god belief

    In science, a theory is as good as it gets. It's rather rare that it does, at that. A theory requires sufficient proof to be called such. For example, I can make a claim such as "if I drop a stone, it will fall to the ground", which would roughly speaking be a hypothesis. In order for it to be...

    god belief

    Well, it's not fact, but I'd like to point out that a "theory" as defined under the scientific method has rather rigorous demands placed on it, and is quite different from how the word is used informally. What people generally call a theory is rather what the scientific method would call a...

    god belief

    Ah yes, intelligent design. Basically, the world is so complex that a being even more complex must've developed it. Circular logic with no evidence, no results and no answers. I'm not even going to get started on evolution, but I can't image you've read much about it.

    Spelling test...

    That there exists a case in which it does work does not imply that all cases work. As I said, the article written to counter it was in itself proof that it didn't.

    Spelling test...

    Not to rain on the parade or anything, but the original article is not quite correct. There was another article written using the same pattern that essentially explained why it was wrong. I don't remember what the reason was (give me a break, it was a few years ago since I read it), but I do...

    It can also be caused by pressure on the bladder. Either way, as long as she doesn't actually need to go (like if she went before you got started), you can tell her to relax, it's fine.

    Anti **** Device

    Old news. It can be ****** (it's gonna happen), quite possibly it can simply be removed by the ******, and while it could certainly prevent some women from being ***** (beyond initial insertion), I'm not sure doing something like that to someone who has the mental and physical capability to ****...

    Image size and quality

    JPEG uses lossy compression that you can play around with if I remember correctly. There should be some option somewhere when you save or elsewhere, but I haven't used Adobe in ages. The quality will go down of course, but if it's not already compressed, you'll probably not notice as long as you...

    Not all wars are fought for freedom. Indeed, the vast majority are probably not. It has been a popular lie for the sake of morale for hundreds of years, but mostly, it's geopolitical interests. You may believe you fight for a good cause, but others may not. You have no right to demand gratitude...

    300

    I try to stay away from movies "based on a true story", simply because while the story the film is based on may be true, whatever story the film is trying to tell is about as far from the truth as it could possibly be. I don't know if that is the case with 300, but chances are it is. That, and...

    The valves in the vascular system are designed to work against gravity, i.e. when you stand upright. Yes, ***** will pool in your upper body when upside down, but it also means that overall circulation, and therefore oxygen distribution, will decrease. Being horizontal is another matter...

    I wouldn't recommend it. Even a few seconds of oxygen deprivation can cause irreversible brain damage or death (due to the brain not having any reserves). Some are more sensitive to oxygen deprivation than others, so it may not be safe even if you do it by the book. I imagine it's easy...

    Gay Rights?

    I thought I had made it fairly clear by now; they are entitled to the same things as a non-homosexual person. That being said, I also believe that a person doesn't automatically have certain rights, more specifically, those that would allow the person to harm someone else. If a person is an...

    Gay Rights?

    I don't generally describe people as defective just because they have an attribute I might consider defective. It wouldn't be a very useful term if it could be applied to everyone, which is more or less the case. I think I mentioned it before, everyone has some type of defect, some are just more...

    Gay Rights?

    *Shrugs* Call it whatever you want then. Different, mutation, feature, attribute, improvement, doesn't matter to me. I call it defective because that's what I'd say about something that doesn't work like it normally does for no apparent reason. Provide me with a valid reason for its existance...

    Gay Rights?

    And to me, it just sounds like wishful thinking, that we're somehow special. Humans being the ultimate creation, the sun revolving around Earth and so on, so forth. I can show you a brain, I can show you how it responds to stimulation, what it has in common with more primitive brains, and to...

    Gay Rights?

    It is called macroevolution and is not always benefitial to the individual. People who come to that conclusion are generally the people who would be against it whether it was a traceable defect or not. I do (or would if I was asked, it's not a hot topic to discuss or think about really). I...

    Gay Rights?

    Any reason for why an individual would not want to or be able to have ******** is counter productive in the biological sense. It's genetic suicide. As being left handed, possibly. Being black (or being white to be specific) is the result of evolution adapting us to hot or cold climates. Being...

It can be pronounces ksaru or ex(s)aru, although simply saru/zaru is possible...

    Gay Rights?

    It is counter productive to the individual, not the species. A higher degree of homosexuality (or other way of reducing birth rates) would actually be one of the best things that could happen to our species at the moment. We're far too many, the planet is essentially overloaded. Do us all a...

The file system, if it even counts towards the storage provided, is extremely small...

    What's in a Terabyte?

    I'm not sure what a "whatchamacallit" is or how to cook it, but the difference is caused by manufacturers defining a terabyte as 10^12 bytes (which technically is correct), whereas a computer, due to its bit architecture, defines a terabyte as 2^40 bytes. Each "step" is actually in terms of...

    Wikipedia is a good place to start, but you shouldn't use it as your source. Generally, you can look something up and follow the links to credible sources that are (hopefully) provided. Some articles leave out a bit of details, some are a bit too simplified (then again, some are much harder than...
