And what the hell is with the tighty-whities? That's not streaking, it's called being a pussy.

Who doesn't like to look at pictures of pussies and cocks?

I thought the point of religion was to find truth. Belief in God isn't necessary for people to be good to each other and comfort one another. In fact, I would argue that someone who is motivated to do good by the reward of going to heaven or fear of going to hell follows a moral code that is...

Until streaming technology gives me the ability to watch true 1080p Blu-ray quality video with DTS/TrueHD quality audio I'll keep watching movies on BD. Even DirecTV's HD compression algorithm (which is considered one of the best) still doesn't come close to matching the quality of a good...

The Lindbergh Baby would be 81 today and still be younger than JoPa.

This is the classic Teleological Argument or Argument from Design. We've probably covered this topic enough in the Creationism/Evolution discussions so I won't bore you with my further ramblings. Besides, many scientists and philosophers have done a much better job covering the arguments against...

Yes, they both may be "guesses" but they don't carry the same plausibility. My hypothesis that the universe has always existed is consistent with what we've observed over the last 14 billion years - that something can't come from nothing so the universe didn't appear from nowhere but has always...

Just to clarify, the Scientific Method deals with the natural universe and thereby doesn't have the ability to make claims about the supernatural. And the responsibility for providing evidence of a claim (the existence of God) lies with the one making the assertion (the theist). Science isn't...

My argument is that why must one assume that the stuff of the universe hasn't always been in existence? Nothing we've observed over the last 14 billion years has indicated that something comes from nothing (at least on the large scale) so why would we assume that everything that came from the...

It's the lack of evidence, not supporting facts that I use to argue my case since I can't prove a negative. Science currently doesn't have a likely explanation for the creation of the universe. However, for the last 14 billion years, from the first moment of the Big Bang until now, nothing has...

In your original post you essentially asked why do atheists deny the existence of God. I answered that it is due to a lack of evidence. Then you stated that it was futile to try and provide objective evidence for the proof of God. So why should anyone believe in something without evidence? I...

Not all atheists are smug, although I'm sure I've appeared that way before. :) I used "God of the Gaps" because that's the common terminology for that concept. I don't see the difference (and Thor, Zeus and Atman were gods, not monsters). If you had lived in Scandinavia a thousand years ago or...

Atheists don't believe in a god simply because there is no evidence of one (and I think you would be hard-pressed to find an atheist who was 100% certain that god does not exist, 100% certainty only exists in matters of faith). No different than Christians who don't believe in Thor, Zeus and...

I was in Sonoma County a few years ago and if I recall correctly Dry Creek Valley is known for Zin's (IMO there is only one kind of Zin - Red), Alexander Valley is known for Cab Sauv, and Russian River Valley for Chards. But after visiting a couple of dozen wineries over a few days, things are a...

Dark is a color, not a flavor. A Schwarzbier (black lager) is lighter tasting than a double IPA. Guinness (4.2%) has less alcohol than a Belgian Tripel (~9%).

No different than Pope John Paul II or Benedict XVI or any other religious leader who poisons the minds of their followers with lies about the promise of life after death. In what other business can you get wealthy off of selling people an intangible product (and even get a tax exempt status...

Is this really supported by your company? I don't see Nestle sitting back and allowing its products to be photo shopped with images of Hitler and JFK's assassination, even if you do "fuz out" their labels. As Gator wrote, this has lawsuit written all over it.

1) Symbolic. Every society and culture on the planet has its own creation myth and Genesis is no more valid than any of the other ones. 1.2) Complete lack of evidence, inconsistencies within Genesis, order of events does not match real order. 2) Earth: approx. 4.5 billion years old/Life on...
