I'm a rigid supporter of the Theory of Evolution, but I'm also a Christian, who believes God did in fact create the Earth. (This seems contradictory, but personally I don't believe the concepts are antithetical: Creation says THAT God created Man, and evolution theorizes about HOW Man was created ... but that's not my question, so please don't bother criticizing it)

As a result, I often get in debates with other Christians about evolution, and they often tell me that since evolution is "just a theory," if should be presented as an equal and opposite theory to creation in schools.

I always tell them that "creation" is a completely theological concept not applicable to "science," while "evolution" is a scientific theory ... just like gravity ... and electricity.

But isn't the "just a theory" argument tautological? If evolution of man happened so long ago, we won't be able to "prove" it, even though we seem to be able to find an infinite amount of supporting evidence, right?

White shirt, gray buttons absent
dusty jeans, worn boots broken
swagger, entering barroom

shotgun rests, short arm's distance
fingers hitched, belt buckle yields
buckskin brown, mane black, waiting

fast horse, sung proudly aloud
battered medals, feathers fly
noble warrior, epic.

Life Without Cellphones
How was your life changed by having a cellphone?
A lot of people say that because there is texting, people don't seemly see each other or call. Some consider it as a blessing, the best tool to bridge one with friends and family.


How about you? What are your thoughts?

If so, why? If not, do you believe you could achieve this someday?

I think everyone is alive so they can experience life to the fullest and live a life that's desirable to that one person.

is making $60,000 per year enough to live a satisfying life?
how much money does one need to make to live a life in which he/she is NOT poor, can afford to travel, go out, etc... but at the same time NOT excessively rich, basically how much money do I need to make per year to live a life that isn't so poor and NOT so materialistic (rich)? basically i am looking for a salary range in which money will NOT concern me or affect anything i do.

i got the idea for this question off of a reputable radio station, which asked if u could change 5 minutes of history, what would you do etc.

So folks, if YOU had the oppertunity to go back to any moment in history - for 1 hour, to try and change the outcome of a tragic event, what would you change ?

I would go go back to ww2 and try to prevent the holocaust if i could.

If it is illegal for us to participate in dogfighting, cockfighting, or killing stray cats and dogs. Then why is it legal for us to use our rifle to kill deers and beers as a sport?

Canon Rebel Xti
Nikon D40X
Nikon D50
Nikon D70

I am thinking about buying one of them at ebay, and I would like to get some advice because these can be almost the same price.

I will be taking some digital photography class at college next semester, and I am a beginner for professional digital cameras.

I would like to learn more about cameras in the future, so I am thinking to get one which I can use for long time.

Is there any suggestion???

Thanks.

I know Dan Hill Sang it and that it was in the movie Superstar, but I remember singing it in chorus and I could have sworn it was from a musical too.
