I've had that kind of job before. Both times I worked in factories, once my hours were like 4PM-midnight, and another, it was 4AM-noon. It wasn't very fun, but it paid pretty well. In this economy especially, he shouldn't give up a sure thing unless he has another job lined up.
That means he's not dead. He left the mask behind either out of shrewdness (to appear dead) or because he had no time to take it.
Yea, I guess that just about describes it. And "cynical"... :D
I look at the glass, and refuse to even contemplate the question, because if someone else is asking the question, then they obviously control the glass, and I have no authority over whether they fill it (make things better) or empty it (make things worse), and I have no blame for it's present state. If someone can make sense out of that, could you please translate it for me? I have no idea what I mean :D
To me, most (if not all) cartoons on TV today are absolute crap. No offense to anyone else, but nothing good has come out in cartoons for a very long time. Unfortunately, my Anthropology education has pretty much ruined all older cartoons as well, because I can now pick out every single stereotype and misconception. So yea, to me, Spongebob and all other cartoons pretty much suck.
Poor maintenance? I can't imagine that in a place as rich as Disneyworld that they wouldn't check those things regularly, but you never know - it could happen.
That's not my goal at all. My goal is to have people believe and accept the evidence for things like a 13 billion year old universe, a 4.5 billion year old Earth, and a 6 million year old human family tree. If you want to believe that God had a hand in all that, go right ahead.
hmmm, was that what this topic was about...? Whaddya know? Well, we're still kinda on the topic of evidence against him...
:D:D:D:D Quite true, we do not know everything about evolution. However, we know a lot more about it (and the big bang) than we do about God.
I can see a good side to most of the world's infrastructure and population being destroyed: we would get to rebuild everything in a more efficient way, finally able to make the switch to new technologies that, right now, would cost billions to implement, and we might be able to keep one government (at least, for a while). But this idea is a load of crap. Nothing is going to happen. I will bet my life on it.
I'm an Anthro major. I can swear to you, on everything I hold dear, that the classes I mentioned have all the information you'll ever need and more on this topic. Now, as I've said, if you want to believe that God started the whole shebang, and even if you want to believe that he interferes to this day, that's jsut fine, but don't neglect the physical evidence for evolution and the dawn of the universe that has even convinced the Pope.
Read the rest of the thread! All links to the proof have been provided! Or how about this - once you get into college, you will get all the proof you will ever need. Take an intro to Anthropology course, an Astronomy course, and a few basic science courses, and you'll have all the proof you'll ever need and more.
Yea, and we might not actually breath air, but a previously unknown substance that is undetectable! And even better - it's not gravity which holds us down, but something even more inexplicable! /sarcasm We have an reason that explains everything. Why assume it's something we haven't found yet? Ever hear of Occam's Razor? If we have an explanation, why go looking for another? ^QFT No star in the universe could be big enough to spread radiation across the entire universe without collapsing into a black hole large enough to swallow the entire universe. And no supernova has ever been big enough to spread radiation top another star, let alone across the universe. Trust me. I have taken multiple college-level astronomy courses. I can't say I understand the math completely, but I do know the fundamentals.
There is physical evidence of the Big Bang. It's called the background radiation in the universe. There is too much to be explained simply by star life and death. It's the remnant of the Big Bang. That is the only logical explanation.
Time and space are intrinsically linked. Hence the term "space-time". Because light can only move so fast, as we look, say, 200 light-years away, we see the light emitted from that object as it was 200 years ago, because it took the light that long to travel to us. We aren't even seeing the sun as it is right now. it takes about 8 minutes for the sun's light to reach us. The light a 200-light-year distant star emits right now will reach us 200 years from now. Our telescopes can see approximately 12 billion light years, meaning that the light we see is 12 billion years old. This is elementary-level astronomy. This means, simply, that because we can see 12 billion light years, the universe is at least 12 billion years old. How else would the light be able to reach us? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_the_universe ^This is a little verbose, but it's the simplest explanation I could find.
The few crystal skulls in existence (less than 13) have all been proven with microscopic analysis to have been made with modern tools, in modern times. I.e., they're all fakes. I.e., this is a load of bull. Also, Maya temples are rarely booby-trapped, or the priests wouldn't have been able to use them for sacrifices and such when they were still in use.
So, the fact that our telescopes can "see" back in time about 12 billion+ years means nothing to you? The fact that we can "see" the radiation left by a big explosion means nothing to you? If you want to believe that He started the Big Bang, fine, but IMO, it's nonsense to say it didn't happen.
That is true for most world religions, but pagan religions (wiccan, druids (the originals), the Native American religions, shamanism, etc) are much more tolerant as a whole. Basically, they'll say "we'll stick to believing in our gods/spirits/ancestors, which are perfectly real, while you stick to yours, which may also be perfectly real, and we'll all be happy."
First off, people can say or be whoever they want on social networking sites, so that's not really proof. Second, of course the news lies! That's pretty much what they do - stretch the truth until it begs for mercy in order to get good ratings. You're just now figuring this out? :D
That's a very old custom in a large number of cultures. In some Native American cultures, someone who showed signs of being homosexual was put to a test, and if they showed the right signs of femininity, they lived their life as a "two-spirit". They, however, weren't persecuted. Two-spirits were said to have great power, in fact. Similar customs abound in ancient cultures around the world. When Christianity heard about it, I guess they associated "gay" with "pagan" with "devil-worship", and we're still cleaning up the mess.
