Qui Gonn: I think there's a difference in trust in a philosophical, doctrinal, or theological position of how you think things really are, and trust in God as a personality. I try to approach my faith in the second sense in looking for personal appli...  [Read More]

jonathan7: Well if they could travel this far, either they're a lot smarter than us, a lot more long lived, or a lot more patient. It seems stupid that they'd be mucking about with some of the things atributed to them. All of those reasons would po...  [Read More]

jonathan: I think you're right about a lot of them. Also, there have been thousands of Ph.Ds in the sciences who worked the way up to being the heads of their departments, then confessed to have made a number of crop circles in the 70s and 80s....  [Read More]

Silent: Since those universes would have to arise from what is physically possible, I don't think that's a feasible way to derive a utopia. Selecting randomly for a universe where all the evil people spontaneously died, yet the good people had no b...  [Read More]

Achilles: As institutions, I'd agree that scientific institutions are better equipped to deal with these questions by far. I'd say a lot of that has to do with their intended role in society, as opposed to their intended role they have in an individu...  [Read More]

Achilles: We have seen so much evidence of one that it has spawned several subdisciplines of how to apply the discoveries. The record of evidence in regard to the other is so sparse that it requires multiple disciplines to even check to rule out th...  [Read More]

Jae: So are you advocating using a functional definition of life for the sake of these discussions? I note you are not pointing to the cellular part of traditional biological definitions as a major part of your definition of life. The trouble comes...  [Read More]

Achilles: Oops. Sorry about posting the wrong thought in the wrong thread. It's worthwhile to seek answers to the questions of evolution, evolution of human life, etc. We expand our understanding of both the universe, and our place in it, as well as...  [Read More]

Achilles: Don't dismiss me without addressing my point please. My best case scenario was to illustrate just how many technological advances we'd have so that actual abiogenesis, (rather than the potential being there) would even be a testable hypoth...  [Read More]

Arcesious: Evolution is nothing more than species (and populations of species) changing through time. Dictionary.com gives a lot of more specific definitions, and annoys me in that they as often as not confused evolution of stars and cosmic events (u...  [Read More]

Arcesious: Achilles has answered you right. No person who actually knows evolutionary theory would claim that humans come from any still living group of apes, or that the apes came from a still living group of monkeys. Just that there is an ancestor...  [Read More]

Arcesious: a very basic example of microevolution can be found if you look up Biston betularia. It's the first example you run across in any basic college biology course. It's not a crossbreed. It's something that naturally happened to a moth species...  [Read More]
