Alien Life on One of Jupiters moon?
by DS211 inis there life on jupiters moon?the week by john aziz 8 hours ago .
the hunt for alien life just made a pretty big breakthrough.. unfortunately or perhaps fortunately we're not anticipating flying saucers on the white house lawn anytime soon.
instead, scientists discovered a (relatively) easily-accessible source of hydrogen and water which together make water, one of the most basic ingredients for life on one of jupiter's moons.. there is already lots and lots of evidence for the existence of both liquid and frozen water in other parts of our solar system.

Why Evolution Is True--something that scares me

"but natural selection was also the part of evolutionary theory con- sidered most revolutionary in darwins time, and it is still unsettling to many.
selection is both revolutionary and disturbing for the same reason: it explains apparent design in nature by a purely materialistic process that doesnt require creation or guidance by supernatural forces.

in the last two decades, however, the book1984 by george orwell has drawn a much greater reading audience.
orwell portrays a society brainwashed by political ideologies to the point where they are intolerant of any other mindset.
