did you know that many text books still to this day hold up piltdown man as proof of evolution?

one of the major reasons there is a backlash against evolution is there many discredited facts still being taught.. even if you are pro evolution this should be a problem

Conflicts of interest

Interesting to see how certain moderators will lock threads, delete posts, edit posts by others or threaten posters for criticizing them and pointing out time and time again that they're uninformed about subjects.

This has happened over and over again, and it's kind of tiresome when a moderator ...

I don't seem to be the one posting Guardian articles and wondering why they aren't in the mainstream news, or are validated.

Then again, I don't get my news from state sponsored TV, comrade, and I don't live in a vacuum.

The only 'state-sponsored' sources in the Guardian article are named ...

Yeah, God forbid that sending adequate troops to do the job properly is anything but pure Democratic propaganda. Or pointing out the Bush people had no plan what to do in Iraq once they kicked Saddam out -- pure radical leftie agitprop. How dare Cleland point out Bush's 'Mission Accomplished' speech ...

Re: Canadians, I have a question

Any of you know about work Visas for the US, that kind of stuff? I will send you a PM, let me know, thanks.

Easiest to get is a Class TN (Free Trade) visa. All you need is $50, proof of citizenship, and a letter with a job offer.

You need to have some sort of professional qualification ...

There are questions, but certainly not huge unhappiness. This war was extraordinarily well run, and the problems stem from the area of the world and the fight we are currently engaged with against an organization that unfortunately is getting a lot of funding from places like Syria, Saudi, and ...

The theory of relativity, which I'm certain you completely understand, and will explain to our boys and girls here why it is not used in engineering, answered a lot of questions but did not nullify Newtons findings.

far to many people think science is fact and dont realize its all theory

Evolution *is* a fact. It's been observed. So is gravity a *fact*. It's been observed too.

A *theory* is an attempt to explain these facts, and link them. So yes, there's a theory of evolution, a theory of gravity, a ...

However, stating parts of evolution are wholly speculative should not be an issue, and isn't to anyone without an agenda, as well as discussions about things we do not understand.

The problem with this scenario is that the people pushing for 'balanced treatment' or 'teachnig all the facts' are ...
