"Crap!"
I must have stated the truth ... I notice your articulate reply ... it's so typical of your kind ... .

I'd like to know how they stabilized the scope and the subject so that the two either don't move or move in unison. At this scale, somebody slamming a door in the next state would cause it to wobble noticably. Give it a lot of intertial mass and separate it from everything around it with very low pass shock absorbers.
Lots of existing scientific instrumentation works this way.
Of course, its typically expensive as heck, since you need to build a special floor just for the instrument.

Guess you will never realize that it's people that do bad things not Science. Par for the course.

The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics scientifically supports that observation. "I like to ask this of everyone who posts this.
Very good idea.
"Show us your work. I'd like to see the calculations that demonstrate your conclusion.
How much activation energy needs to be overcome to jump start a creationist?

Errors occur in the transcription of one out of every 10^4 to 10^5 base pair. AHhh....
Then why don't we see MUCH more variety in existing critters today???
Seems to me that if this error rate is true, MANY neutral (Neither aiding nor detracting from 'advantage in reproduction') things would be hanging around most every critter alive!
Why, out of a million individuals (10^6)there should be 10 to 100 of them with STUFF that does nothing at the present time.

The theory of evolution (the origin of species), like the Big Bang theory, is based solely on the premise that life is an immaculate conception... Obviously, you understand neither the theory of evolution, nor the Big Bang theory. Your statement is wholly untrue.

And (by way of anecdote) don't forget that the BTK monster was a well-respected Lutheran congregant... And if someone posts that Hitler was an Evolutionist: Watch OUT!

That's precisely what I am talking about and VERY CLEAR in my reply. I further qualify that with godless people.
Feeling a tad dense today? Or just prickly as usual?
Never mind, I really don't want to hear about your endless problems.

Sounds like a lot of fun. It's good you ended up on the living side of things.
Just to keep the quantum wave joke alive, I have to ask: How quickly did the wave (H2O) decay? ;)

I am a scientist and a Christian, I have no problem at all reconciling my beliefs and faith. I also have no belief whatsoever in ID, I think this is another of man's attempts to put limits and understanding on an omnipotent being he could never hope to comprehend
OK.......
Most Christians 'believe' Evolution because they do NOT know what their Bible says. If, as they say, they 'believe' the words of Jesus and then of the New Testament writers, they have to decide what the following verses mean:
Romans 5:12-21
12. Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned--
13. for before the law was given, sin was in the world. But sin is not taken into account when there is no law.
14. Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who was a pattern of the one to come.
15. But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God's grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many!
16. Again, the gift of God is not like the result of the one man's sin: The judgment followed one sin and brought condemnation, but the gift followed many trespasses and brought justification.
17. For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ.
18. Consequently, just as the result of one trespass was condemnation for all men, so also the result of one act of righteousness was justification that brings life for all men.
19. For just as through the disobedience of the one man, the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.
20. The law was added so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more,
21. so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
If there were no one man, that means SIN did NOT enter the World thru him.
If Adam was NOT the one man, that means SPIRITUAL DEATH did not come thru him.
If SIN did NOT enter the World thru the one man, that means Jesus does not save from SIN.
Are we to believe that the one man is symbolic? Does that mean Jesus is symbolic as well?
The Theory of Evolution states that there WAS no one man, but a wide population that managed to inherit that last mutated gene that makes MEN different from APES.
1 Timothy 2:13
For Adam was formed first, then Eve. Was Paul WRONG about this???

Actually, your adherence to Bronze Age fairy tales, and treating the Genesis myth as scientific fact discredits you and makes you look absurd. Hold this thought........

Why should I be astonished?
All knowledge depends on scale.
I am impressed.

And, according to the Islamofascists, one day Allah will send you to hell. They got enough worries of their own: wondering whether their good deeds will outweigh the bad on Allah's scales......

My resultant stupidity lead me to believe IDists couldn't claim polymerase actions as being designed therefore assumed they would be forced to admit their religious basis. Why is this a BAD thing??
Must IDer's be atheists now?

come again? Please elaborate? Is this a close system / open system faux-pas usually made by non-scientists?Don't Haeckel the poor lamb, he has probably been using PatrickHenry's troll toolkit, he managed several of the standard creato-trolling points in one post, and it's not as if he's a newby.
