Scientists tell us the moon's gravity is very weak compared to earth's gravity.So why would it cause tides in the seas yet the earth's gravity is stronger?It does not make sense because we are told people can literally float on the moon due to its weakness yet it slightly pulls our water thousands of miles away!

We all know from physics that the planets rotate around the sun on an elliptical orbit.But since the moon orbits the earth,which in turn orbits the sun,would its orbit look like a helical spring while observing from the sun?

I'm not talking about your morality. I don't want to see any bible quotes. What I'm asking is this, is there a legal basis for gay marriage to be banned? Does the act of gay marriage hamper the freedom of others in any way? If two people of the same sex marry does it limit the freedom of others?
Go on, try your best.

I am asking, just out of precaution. I had a near miss just an hour ago. What are the odds of getting hit? Should we all consider protective clothing?

Is there or has there been Life on Mars?

Though not spoken of openly, there is a host of photographic evidence (supplied by MERs Spirit and Opportunity) that suggests past Martian life. Of course, since no human is there to have a closer look, the images are open to interpretation but they do constitute a body of possibilities for speculation and study.

There are also pointers to present life on the Red Planet; namely the concentrations of Methane in the atmosphere. Because this substance does not remain for long (a few hundred years) before dispersing, the Methane being detected must be of recent origin. There are two main generators of this gas: Life and Volcanism.

For further research, I suggest the link below for some of the aforementioned photographic evidence.

He married his first cousin. had a batch of messed up kids. was a terrible father. He said birds evolved from tree's.
he said "the only other option is believing in god"(lame excuse)
he created the basis of Nazism (help natural selection by killing off the "less evolved" races, Aryan being the most evolved race.)Original title to his book “The Origin of Species by means of Natural Selection or, The Preservation of Favored Races in the Struggle for Life”.
he believed women were of inferior intelligence.
he only had evidence for micro-evolution(adaptation)
but no physical proof of species change.
It doesnt seem like a good idea to trust this guy, so why does anyone?

If you glanced to your left, surely your left eye would receive an image before your right eye. So, the image in your right would be for arguments sake 0.0000000000001 secs older than the image your left is receiving.
