i have come to the conclusion that science cannot prove or disprove the existence of god.
however the scientific evidence available is compelling enough for me to believe that a creator is responsible for life on earth.. i have read much about powner and understand the work he is doing.
i am interested in your views as to his credibility.
come on people - this is really simple
believers believe because they want to - and then torture selected facts to appear rational
a-believers haven't seen evidence to support any god or god-type concept
One of my beliefs (without evidence) is that its a futile discussion.
i was outraged at this and had to post it.. http://jehovahswitnessreport.com/blog/jw-refuses-to-provide-wedding-stationery-to-gay-couple.
i think she is a hypocrite and i bet she sells her invites to fornicators, or does she ask them if they are having sex before marrige, before she takes their money?.
i was never like this when i was a jw, it's even more disturbing that she is going to ask her elders what to do.
sleep with any consenting adult you want mr hhomo :-)
BTW - your username has a stutter...not discriminating, just saying..
"marvin", who i understand is a pseudonym, has an excellent blog whose most recent post was last september.
his most recent contribution to wikipedia, where he made very valuable contributions, was march 2013.. i have emailed him wondering if he's ok, but haven't had a response.
anyone know if he's ok or what the deal is?.
I felt he didn't really understand how to make forums like this work for him.
the best game of the whole football year is almost always the champions league final.. it's on tv live right now and this year both finalists are from madrid.. real madrid v athletico madrid.. the talent on show for the next 90 minutes is stunning.. diego costa has been subbed already - hamstring.. if you can't get the game in your country you can follow the updates here....
the problem i have with European CL football is the financial fair play aspect - its highly improbable for a non-Big 5 based team to win the CL - here they are for the last 30 years - 5 smaller country teams have managed it.

damn wish I'd seen this thread last night..
great game - I had 20 quid on Atletico/RM at 28/1 (half time fulltime bet) - was looking ok until about 75 minutes and it became clear RM were going to need a huge result to get the 2 goals I needed for my illgotten gain.
great game for the neutral
La Liga best defense against La Liga best attack
sets us all up well for the World Cup
the collapse of large parts of the ice sheet in west antarctica appears to have begun and is almost certainly unstoppable, with global warming accelerating the pace of the disintegration, two groups of scientists reported monday.. the finding, which had been feared by some scientists for decades, means that a rise in global sea level of at least 10 feet may now be inevitable.
the rise may continue to be relatively slow for at least the next century or so, the scientists said, but sometime after that it will probably speed up so sharply as to become a crisis.. this is really happening, said thomas p. wagner, who runs nasas programs on polar ice and helped oversee some of the research.
theres nothing to stop it now.
if anyone is interested in why shanagirl and 78% of other Americans get it so badly wrong you can find most of the answer here

well done to the 22% - I have met quite a few of you in person and its not all bad! (stuckinamovement recently :-)

@shanagirl
if you had a decent point you could make it in a sentence or two of your own. People tend not to read all that pasted stuff.
Meanwhile awaiting on an answer to my question pls?

I have no more credentials than any of you who are so sure Global warming is human caused
"Don't underestimate the other guy" is always good advice.
I simply do not agree with your "Chicken Little the sky is falling" and humans are to blame opinions.
Can you separately define 'fact' and 'opinion' please?

@shanagirl - may I ask what your credentials in climate science are?
