By golly, I think we have outselves here a bona fide, true-blue Christian Reconstructionist here. Its getting scary.

Worry not about the ethernet cables. Worry about the 120 volt power cords. I had a cat chomp on one of those. Fortunately I was home. A scary scene but no permanent damage to the cat.

Again, just as an exercise, what would be so terrible about a government guided by Scripture and the will of God, just as most of the founding fathers envisioned? Not all would agree. Is this a sinner, to be condemned?
Lo! the poor Indian, whose untutord mind
Sees God in clouds, or hears him in the wind;
His soul proud Science never taught to stray
Far as the solar walk, or milky way;
Yet simple Nature to his hope has givn,
Behind the cloud-topt hill, an humbler heavn;
Some safer world in depth of woods embracd,
Some happier island in the watry waste,
Where slaves once more their native land behold,
No fields torment, no Christians thirst for gold!
To Be, contents his natural desire,
He asks no Angles wing, no Seraphs fire;
But thinks, admitted to that equal sky,
His faithful dog shall bear him company.
Alexander Pope, An Essay On Man.

Wasn't just a few weeks back that there was a thread about the oldest chimp remains? Seem as if it was about 300,000 years. Anybody else remember this?

Are you making the ridiculous assumption that all evolution is directed to the end result of humans? Because that would be really silly. I'm amazed at how many Creationists think that all other animals are like they are because they just haven't "got to the human stage yet". It doesn't work like that. More sun revolving around the earth mentality.
To: Coyoteman
All are sinners in need of salvation -- injun, cowboy, beggarman, bakerman, thief. The bible does not squarely address the question of individual special revelation, whether or not Christ could or would show himself to someone who has never met a mortal missionary.

That's actually an Oriental concept. Animals are ranked along a scale of least to greatest (with humans being the latter). One's actions in life determine which life form one ends up as.
It is interesting seeing the cross-pollenization of religions taking place.

Not a witch church. Nah, they've all been torched.
To: Junior
Everyone has multitudes of personalities within them, parents, siblings, role models and composites of those. In most of us, the decisions we make are made based on the interaction of multiple synaptic paths through those personalities. We normally ignore those 'arguments' at the conscious level, much as we ignore the huge amounts of information that actually reaches our senses. Of all the sounds we hear, sights we see, odors we smell, thoughts we think, only a small fraction makes it to our consciousness.
You just notice more of the thoughts than do the rest of us.

Cats aren't passed off as chicken. They're passed off as rabbit. I have personal experience in this regard.

What"? Is there a picture of a chicken hatching from a dino egg? Hey, that'll answer which came first won't it?

I'll ask the Grand Master. But sometimes he doesn't answer. You need to turn the eight ball over, and then turn it back upright.

I, too, have good taste in cats. I go to the local Chinese restauranr regularly and order chicken. You know, they say rattlesnake tastes just like chicken too. Too greasy and bony for my taste, even with a good saute in white wine and olive oil.
