    Shocked reaction

    I can't believe this statement. Have you ever looked into what happened in 1948 when the Americans (and UN - which in my opinion is basically just Americans with a bunch of little followers including my own country) decided to ruin the Palestinians lives...

    New York World Trade Centre

    Palestinians Dancing in the Streets I wouldn't get too excited about the Palestinians dancing in the streets as apparently September 11th is the anniversary of the death of somebody that they all disliked (I haven't found out who yet), and thanks to the wonderful media just forgot to mention...

    A theory on how to reduce car accidents.

    accident proofing cars I've kind of put a little thought into this myself, about how to reduce accidents while driving, and the idea I came up with was a radar system. Basically each car is equipped with a small radar unit and computer that can compute the speed/distance of cars around you, and...

    Interstellar Travel is Impossible

    meteorites If there is all this energy released when meteorites impact whatever craft it is we are flying, then perhaps an answer would be to find a way to harness that energy and use it for propulsion instead of obliterating it.

    The Perfect Woman...

    Women I would have to say the independance is definitely one of the more importantant traits. There is nothing worse than not being able to get away for a night with the guys once in a while. I think it is very important for each partner to have their own individual lives. It gives them...

    Am I wrong?

    politicians You guys are definitely on the right track. I feel pretty much the same way about the politics here in Canada. I think a lot of the problem of having a shitty Prime Minister is because we don't pay enough money. Anyone that would be good enough would rather run a bank or other firm...

    Riddles

    You may ask me any questions about this one as long as they are yes no questions. Basically just try to guess the events leading up to this: A doctor puts an add in a paper that reads "Left Arm Wanted, will pay cash". A bum sees the add and decides he needs the money enough. He goes to the...

    What came first, the Chicken or the egg?

    The egg came first as dinosaurs laid eggs and even before that fish/turtles laid eggs long before any chicken was walking the earth.

    Human Nature Question

    Oxygen, I would have to agree that I think everyone is born good. The evil comes later in life from fear, anger, and lack of understanding. But when you think about it, we are born with the capabilities to have these emotions, so therefore we are born with the evil and it gows in people as they...

    To be cremated or not?

    Recently my grandfather passed away, and he had decided that rather than spending huge amounts of money on a buriel, the remainder of his savings would be donated to a few key organizations that helped him through his battle. He was cremated then the ashes burried in a cute little box next to...

    why are you here?

    I think this is an excellent question and although I don't respond much on the board I frequently check in to read up on the new posts. My reasons are quite simple, I enjoy a good read. To stand back and look at the discussions that everybody has and read both sides of the argument is really...

    Is Christ a Capitalist?

    Pashley It sounds to me like you are taking the side that God is "communitarian". After all, when the people that are comfortable give to the poor, that can be paraphrased as "sharing the wealth".

    Janet Reno: Avon Sales Lady

    I have to agree that the degree of force was a little overwhelming, however I do think the act of removing the child and returning him to the father was necessary. The father after all does have custody, and in any case where a child is stolen or removed from the birth parent, he/she should be...

    US Prisons--a growth industry

    Yes prisons are relied upon for taking up social problems, but the answer is not to just say, "Hey lets pretend drugs aren't a problem any more". Using that pretext, why have any laws? That way you can reduce the prison numbers to zero. Education is the answer. Family is the answer. These two...

    The Moon

    Here is another better link that gives the perigee and apogee for any year you want. http://www.fourmilab.ch/earthview/pacalc.html As far as when the information is taken, I do not know for sure but speculate it doesn't follow the 27.5 day rule because I think the elliptical orbit rotates...

    The Moon

    Actually on February 7 of 97 the Perigee of the moon was at closest than any other month in 97 (http://www.hooked.net/~sidereal/moonapsi.html) and I also remember that in February of this year the Perigee was the closest point in 100 years or so (can't find a link), so I would guess the month of...

    Evolution vs. Creation

    You wonder what would happen if you discovered a dating method was not as accurate as you thought? I ask you the same question, what if the bible is not as acurate as you thought?

    propulsion

    I would have to agree with Boris on the fact that Solar Sails are not going to be the "wave of the future". First off it does take too long to pick up speed, but second, how about the return trip to Earth from Mars or other outer planets? Would you not first have to venture further away from the...
