I too have a small piece of trinitite.

What?! Is this going to turn into one of those "I was at Woodstock" jamborees? ;^)

the nightmares produced by the Darwinists in Communism and Fascism.

You said the magic words. You deserve the magic links:

Whenever that kind of mindless, idiotic lie is posted, I respond with some of the same kind of thinking, but in reverse. Look what creationism will do:
IS GOD A COMMUNIST? chapter & verse quotes from the holy bible.
SODOMY AND THE CLERGY. Supernaturalists exposed as pederasts, perverts, boy molesters, rapists, and murderers.
SWAGGART, A FALLEN CREATIONIST Remember this creationist?

And here's the truth about communism and evolution:
Trofim Denisovich Lysenko This guy, not Darwin, Was Stalin's biologist.

This 21st century theory seems to be heading in the same direction as Buffon's 18th century one.

I have a small chip of the One True Cross. Cool thing is, I didn't have to buy it. I found it in my back yard.

[RadioAstronomer]

Got mine along time ago. I have quite an eclectic pile of flotsam from various places. I have a liquid hydrogen needle valve from a NERVA rocket engine, a mono-atomic layer quantum well imaging wafer, a nickel/iron meteorite, a piece of one of the Martian meteorites, etc. LOL!!

[RadioAstronomer]

ROTFLMAO!

[PatrickHenry]

I have a small chip of the One True Cross.

I have Colombus' slide rule, Ben Franklin's walkie-talkie, and the legendary Shroud of New Jersey.

[VadeRetro]

. . . the legendary Shroud of New Jersey.

What's on it? Industrial waste?

You don't happen to live at a remote area right next to a major interstate highway in a multipurpose home do you?

Odd how history repeats itself.

Leibniz combined the Scala Naturae with his plenum (continuous) view of nature, and called the result the Law of Continuity. He believed that it was not possible to put organisms into discrete categories, stating "Natura non facit saltus" (Nature does nothing in leaps).

Yeah, well, do you have a first edition copy of "Andy Hardy and His Electric Grandmother" autographed by "medved"?

Well not quite. :) The mutipurpose home fits though! LOL!!!

[RadioAstronomer]

Colombus' slide rule

LOL!! (I do have a slide rule collection :)) My fav is my K&E Log Log Duplex Decitrig.

Hey! What a find! I bet you might get 10 (or even 15) cents at an auction!

[Scully]

Yes, it is still "hot".

I wasn't at Woodstock (too young), but I have been to the Grand Canyon LOL!

[Heartlander]

Sorry, had to step out for a while. Friday night is family night here.
Anyway -

Science isn't just another cult. It's the opposite of a cult. It's based on observation and reason.

I never said science was a cult and I do in fact embrace science. I actually have no problem with evolution, (although I see many faults) my problem is evolution without Intelligent Design. Christianity and many religions can coexist with the evolution theory but atheism cannot. Whether atheism is a religion or not is debatable – IMHO it is… And even beyond that, as any religion, it has an agenda.

Intelligent Design is applied to science in many different areas but is not applied to biology. When we look at the big picture here from an atheist standpoint:

Cosmology: The Big Bang = it just happened
Biology: Life = it beat the odds and just happened as a result of nature
Philosophy: Intelligence = it came to us as a result of nature

Sir, if you or anyone wants to believe this, it is there right. I, sir, have the right to believe otherwise. This great country was founded on God and I will fight to keep it so (just as an atheist will fight to remove Him) Give me liberty or give me death. What say you PatrickHenry? (or is Patrick Henry now a member of the ACLU – funny how they never fight to help keep guns)

I ask you this sir, did the ‘concept’ of liberty come from nature? Did our intelligence come from nature?

[Heartlander]

Where did our intelligence come from?

[longshadow]

.... but I have been to the Grand Canyon LOL!

I trust you weren't "shocked" or "electrified" by what you saw there.....

[AndrewC]

I wasn't at Woodstock (too young), but I have been to the Grand Canyon LOL!

I have not been at either place. Strange thing is I was born in Arizona. I have flown over the chasm though.
