I just looked it over again. One of the misspellings must have been mine Razz, however you misspelled enabling. Uhhh... really though, I only brought it up to pick on maporshe because he had picked on me about my english skills since I put "your welcome" instead of "you're welcome". LOL The thing is... I think I do that ALL the time. I started wondering if I do and have been fighting the temptation to go back and check a few posts just to see! Razz

Heph, thanks so much for the favoritism. I clicked your avatar and WOW, what an image. Is that REALLY you? If so, marry me (if you don't mind my committing bigamy). :wink:
I feel for Cyracuz.

JLN is correct, Cyracuz. The U.S. A2Kers always get an image when clicking on Hephzibah's avatar. Do you live in Europe, Cyracuz?

i would too like to know where you had got your information from. i found it very interesting about how you said that woman and man were split. i am always looking at/for imformation on the subjects of the Bible.
You think genesis is silly, nonsence? you beleive in evolution? the truth is evolution and the Bibles creation story are equaled out to be just as silly as the other- therefor you eather choose faith in God who WAS always there or you beleive that the matter that has created our world today came from nothing.

You are obviously mildly retarded so I will sling no further insults at this completely mindless post.

You obviously know NOTHING about evolution which is why you think a statement such as this has any worth. You and hephzibah share this in common.

Yep... Sadly (or otherwise) I live in Europe, and am apparently not granted the privilege (or otherwise) of seing these pictures you speak of. Smile

Even if lauratoland is in fact retarded, does that automatically mean that she (assuming here) has nothing to contribute to this thread?

Those are not the only alternatives. More information and thought on the subject might reveal to you that these two that you find mutually exclusive are not so at all. Then again, it might not. It depends on what you emphasize and what you're looking for.

Perhaps to the uneducated.

Research 'false dichotomy'

One does not "believe in" Evolution in the same sense that one "believes in God." The empirical evidence from the various natural sciences are organized or integrated around certain continously affirmed principles, such as the observations of mutuals, enviornmental stress, natural selection, etc.. I see that much is gain in understanding of nature by means of the evolutionary organization or interpretation of such evidences. Faith has very little to do with it.

By the way, Dok, I don't know what you were referring to with "'research 'false dichotomy'". Are you referring to spurious conceptual distinctions that have no reference to actual empirical distinctions--or to the so-called "difference that make no difference"?

JL, I think Dok was just referring to the claim that not believing in one thing means that you have to believe THE other thing, implying no other options exist.

Actually, spelling doesn't seem to effect our cognition all that much,

Your question reveals that the answer to my misspelled question is 'yes'. But as long as the first and last letters of each word are in the right place we can usually understand it.

They don't believe in evolution because every fact they acknowledge further erodes the fairytale of their beliefs. Without it they're afloat in the universe and it terrifies their frightened little minds.
