Ignorance combined with arrogance. Just in case you can't read, I am talking about Win XP (see my first post). I don't use Win 7 so I don't know anything about it. Windows will delete the _address_ of certain information but not necessarily the information itself. Thus the disk will become...

Yup. The disk itself gets cluttered because Windows retains most information that is _apparently_ deleted. So it's always worth doing.

Interesting. I would love for a theist to read this thread. I've always loved the way many religious people try to say that science is all a conspiracy and that scientists have no idea what they're talking about..... then go on to attempt to use science to prove the existence of their chosen...

For what it's worth, I would think that the issue is more about the crashes than it is the O.S. And there's a lot you can do to sort those crashes out. I run a laptop and a desktop both with XP. The desktop is not connected to the net and the only stuff I do on it relates purely to audio. I'm...

Yup same old crap. Any predictions on how it will unfold? Mine: Intelligent people get YouTube-Famous by easily tearing apart his tired old crap. He gets all sulky about it and does something stupid to one of them.... let's say like ummmmm..... well, anyway.

Thanks for all the help in this thread. Especially Andiferous (the first point made re: definition of terms was much appreciated), borrofburi, squawk, hackenslash and nemesis. Very much appreciated and I've learnt a lot. Mostly that I have a hell of a lot more to learn! And Squawk, I read the...

Yes. Verbosity just encourages counter-verbosity. Thanks. Would it be safe to say that the default position is we don't know.... yet... ?

This should really go under "shameless self promotion" but anyhoo... If anyone would like audio to accompany a YouTube vid I'd me more than happy to create something. Custom and free of charge. I run a recording studio and have only two jobs at the moment so have plenty of free time. Just...

:D :D Love it! I will post the link to the paper. Also, what do you think of this for a reply to the Crick thing (keeping in mind that I am not well versed in any of the sciences... I'm trying to look at his logic): "Well, it must be an incredible read if what it says is that scientists...

Many many thanks. :) So much ammo I don't know what to do with it! Mostly because, as per usual I guess, the conversation has now moved on to even more interesting claims. It's hard to keep up! It should be said at this point that he still hasn't responded to my criticism of his definitions...

"It is often cynically said that there are no atheists in foxholes. I'm inclined to suspect (with some evidence, although it may be simplistic to draw conclusions from it) that there are very few atheists in prisons." The God Delusion pp 261 - 262. "Correlational evidence is never conclusive...

Yeah can you guys do that? That would be great :)

For the record, I believe he has said that he isn't religious. Seems to me like he just has a massive chip on his shoulder about science.

"I am not sure what you think I am saying, but it is clearly not what I am actually saying. My basic premises: Science has nothing to say about the existence of gods. Humans, whether they are scientists, philosophers or any other thing, operate within a paradigm. Science is not objective...

Now everyone seems to be jumping on the "evolution cant be falsified" bandwagon. Me: "You've misunderstood and I think you're confusing yourself a bit. You've just insisted again that you believe that evolution won't be falsified not that it can't be. Here is an example: "If we found a...
