Oh, Rev7, you certainly can get proteins from vegetables and cheeses. For those who don't already know, a protein (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein) is a long chain of amino acids, and there are 20 amino acids. Our bodies can make 11 of these ami...  [Read More]

~snip~ History was one of my undergrad majors, and I knew exactly what I was looking for with that--I knew which sources existed, I just needed to find them on the web for the citation. The more technical/medical studies take longer to search for an...  [Read More]

We're giving thanks to Squanto? :lol: I don't buy revisionist history. :) Yes, we should be grateful for the help he (and Samoset) provided the Pilgrims, but that's not why we have the holiday. Try a primary historical source instead of wiki, like...  [Read More]

Link (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071001/ap_on_re_us/presidential_records) Good. Presidents should be accountable to their citizens and you can't have accountability without transparency. Not just that, though that is likely one of, if not the, mos...  [Read More]

Whoever approved the architect's plans initially was kinda dumb, but I think it's a huge waste of our tax dollars to go nuts on a remodel. It's a building, for heaven's sake, not a statement on our love or lack thereof for Nazis....  [Read More]

Another way of looking at it is to see the way theists are and the way atheists are and choose one side or the other because of the way their stance is portrayed. Faith, or lack thereof, is an extremely personal decision--I don't think people should...  [Read More]

Perhaps. One motive to turn to religion however might be to spite the unethical atheist. Why would we want to waste time and energy on spite when we could be busy doing things like missions/helping run the homeless shelter in our church/helping at-r...  [Read More]
