I would say it's main value would be to understand Darwin and Darwin's time, not so much to understand evolution itself. I think it's funny how a lot of creationists think Evolution lives and dies on what Darwin said, as if he's our Jesus. Darwin was great; he gave us one of the most important...

So one of my fairly good friends is a devout Catholic. I told her I was atheist this past summer. I didn't bring up the subject; she did. Ever since then she's been bringing up religion a lot when we talk. I told her I don't believe in that stuff, but she just keeps brining it up and tells me...

That's awesome! Good luck. Hope everything goes well.

That's interesting. My O-chem professor last year does the same thing. He uses a Pd catalyst and works with carbohydrates. UW? Yeah, I know getting a PhD is serious business. I really like biology and biological anthropology (and science in general really), but with all the hype I've heard I...

I'm currently working towards a BS in General Biology, a BA in Chemistry, and minoring in Anthropology. I didn't know what I wanted to do, but after listening to a few Chemistry seminars, I've decided Chemistry is definitely not where I want to end up. I think I want to be a Biological...

Foot in the door, MGK.

FUCK NO! I'll take my chances.

hmmm, I must have done something wrong. Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piuoGb-Nhfw&feature=related

This has been posted by several of my friends on facebook over the last year or so. I have to laugh a little each time though. Can't believe how easily convinced some people are.

I was a Christian until I started reading the Bible. I'm completely dumbfounded how anyone can read the Bible and still be a Christian and worship Yahweh. I really like to try and understand the thinking of others, but this is one of the few times I just can't.

"The idea of witchcraft is hardly new, but it has taken on new life recently partly because of a rapid growth in evangelical Christianity." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/10/18/african-children-denounce_n_324943.html

Too bad he didn't go on Jon Stewart's show instead. Colbert is funny, but he dominates his interviews too much. I know that's just part of the schtick, but with guys like Dawkins on there it'd be nice to listen to what the guest has to say.

Very very few men have dropped a door on me. Many many women have. Not to make it a sexist argument or anything, just that that has been my experience. The majority of people (both men and women) hold the door though.

My parents are pretty religious and made a point to teach me all the Bible stories at a young age. The Great Flood never made sense to me. I don't know as if I would say I didn't believe it, just that I was highly doubtful, even as a 6 year-old. Remembering back to all the questions I asked my...

Bill O'Reilly pretty much "wins" every debate on his show because he won't allow anything else. If he feels he's losing he will shout over his opponent, change the subject, or cut their mic (yes, I've seen that happen). The truth is he's an ignorant moron and couldn't win against an intelligent...

Eh, you guys can make your assumptions. I had far less trouble with women in jr. high and hs when I was Christian and when girls were less concerned with finding a long-term partner. I could hook up with girls at parties and/or bars if I wanted, but that isn't really my thing. I've had two...

Yeah, I'm sure that's the case since he told me he was Christian at a time when it was just him and me and his gf was out of town. :roll: He's been with the girl for over 3 years and wants to marry her eventually. I remember talking to him early in the relationship and he said the one thing...

I'm a decent looking guy, not hollywood model material but probably 7-8/10. I run a LOT and eat well. I'm in very good physical shape. I'm laid back and easy going. I love to make people laugh and seem to be relatively good at it. I work for my money and am dedicated to my studies. I'm friendly...

I shouldn't really care, but I live in a conservative area of the States and almost everyone I know is a bible beating Republican. The few atheists I do know aren't really the type of the people I care to hang out with (they're nice people and all, and I'm friends with them, but they're not...
