alan,
thanks for the info!
indeed a predicament...if the conditions would not be the way the are we could not be here and ask the question of why they are the way they are.
could be solved by assuming that a very large or infinite number of universes exist each having other laws. of which some allow for the formation of highly complex structures such as humans.

thichi,
just read the rest of your posts....if you want to establish the involvement of a creator in the development of lets say bacterial flagella you have to come up with a way of PROVING that such a designer was actually at work - respectively yo uhave to PROVE that the object at hand cannot evolve by itself.
just because something looks complicated does not mean it requires a designer!
talesin,
LOL i don't intend to catch flies!....and i find the jokes funny.
but i also find the lamento about gas prices in the US a little funny considering that the gas prices in the US are half that of europe and some people brag about driving cars that burn twice as much as necessary (that is as long as the gas is almost for free).

thichi,
It is easy to make an argument for God??s existence from a cosmological standpoint. As the years have gone by, a growing amount of scientific data has accumulated which negates atheistic assumptions about how matter and the cosmos came into existence and how it has arrived at its present condition. I have been impressed with an increasing awareness on the part of many scientists and theologians that science and religion are symbiotic disciplines.
this statement intrigues me...what cosmological discoveries are you referring to?
just wonder how the people with the SUVs think about this
utterly disgusting.
those responsible should be lined against a wall and shot.
publicly.. i think that would win more hearts and minds than bombing cities and using gunships on civilian areas.. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4855930/.
richie,
if your point is to show that all US politicians are full of shit i congratulate you!
how sorry i was to hear from dansk-he is going through a very difficult time.. i would like all prayers, thoughts, please keep this in mind ____ for me!!!!.
the sad news he has cancer.it is lymphoma!!!
they are waiting on the results of the biopsy before determining treatment..... he didnt want me to say anything at first- as he feels you all have your own problems & he didnt want to upset anyone-because he says "they are dear friends".
i am very sad to hear this
Dansk is a great guy!
Wish him the very best and a quick recovery!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

outoftheorg,
your response makes me sad. you rather vote for a nightmare like bush or kerry rather than nader because they look better??? is it really of crucial importance how the persoon looks? would you have voted for einstein or dismissed him based on his looks?
