Wicked... good to see a few of my country(wo)men on the "brighter" side as well 8-)
I study & reside in Dà¼sseldorf atm, but originally I'm a southerner - borderline Austria-Bavarian ;)
That one doesn't work, you should check it.
... well, another spin artist. Doesn't make me rage exactly, but it's a pity the critic deems it well-written. I like my religious books boring and hard to read, makes it more fun for the believers.
Second that part.
As much as I disagree with religious people, I do my best to make positive points for my views - or factually question theirs, instead of trashing them. That only causes animosity and counterattack - which is pretty useless IMO.
The exception is of course when you are forced...
What does it mean to die?
End of brain function :arrow: loss of consciousness :arrow: decay of physis :arrow: plant manure.
Everybody's just a thinking heap of carbon. Once the thinking stops, down the food chain we go. Simple as that.
That's how I see it. I don't measure much importance or...
Wow. I can literally feel the sparks of inspiration.
Seriously - can somebody speed him up a little, he puts me to sleep. :roll:
If that's supposed to cause applaus or enthusiasm... he should think again.
Hmm... with the right teacher... I mean, I was a total loser on anything concerning math and science in school, but I never had problems of understanding computers. And not just on the software level. With the importance computers have today, either way, I think awareness and understanding of...
Oh wow. I hope they get sued for all they're worth, that's just plain unacceptable.
But still - doesn't surprise me in the least.
Someone should teach the kids how to shield their computers or send bugs that can't be traced.
Something along those lines.
Oh those whackjobs sooo need measures...
Very cool. See, this didn't come out of nowhere. In Germany we have a community based on the Facebook-principle, which is called "StudiVZ" which is short for "student register". It caught some heat in the past because the developers were actively stealing codes and templates from FB, but that's...
... anyone? ;)
Joking. (with Rumsfeld, that is. Disclaimer just in case.)
I am aware that creationism and what goes with it has not taken so much of a hold around here, and many people I know, even in university, are completely oblivious to that movement.
And I'm pretty hard pressed to find...
I realize it's far from perfect. And some of the visuals give me eye cramps.
But it had a profound effect on me in the sense that it threw me off and puzzled me.
It made me want to find things out for myself, do research and - most of all - do some thinking.
So I link to it a lot, just to...
Ouph. Or however you spell that in English.
I have a ridiculously ugly last name which comes from my fathers side and basically says that my ancestors came from a place called "Wegscheid", which is an old expression for "junction". So I'd pretty much just live in a village between two roads...
