Personally I don't. I believe the subject of evolution is just another way for humanity to play God and say that they are number one. Evolution is tricky, though, for non-religious people. A few reasons why I don't believe in evolution:

1.) I'm Christian and it does go against Christian beliefs
2.) If humans are related to Apes, where are the half- ape/half- human creatures (big foot doesn't count because, if big foot is real, there are not enough of it's breed to be considered a missing link)
3.) Scientists also say that birds evolved from reptiles... but if that's true- where are the birdlike reptilians that should be roaming the Earth?

To me, there are too many unknowns for Evolution to be considered anywhere close to fact, so why is it being taught in school? Well, that's my opinion, I want to hear yours. I love stirring up controversy.

I farted in the shower earlier and damn near passed out. There has to be a scientific reason for this especially odiferous flatulance.

From car alternater I'd like to convert DC to AC. The alternater produces 12-14 volt, 40-50 amps DC approximately. How many watts probably could I get the most? If I hook up directly between alternator and rectifier to get AC, how many watts,volt could I get without regulater? I have tried to find out but confused. Thank you.

If one baseball player is batting 1-4 and another is also batting 1-4. Thats .200. So how come the probability of one of them getting a hit is .250 (2/8).

The problem reads: a) Let An be the area of a polygon with n equal sides inscribed in a circle with radius r. By dividing the polygon into n congruent triangles with central angle 2pi/n, show that An = 1/2nr^2(sin 2pi/n). b) Show that lim as n approaches infinity = An = r^2 pi.

Thank you so much for your help. I have no idea how to work this problem. I am totally stumped!!!

Does it actually get darker before or after or at the official sunset time? Obviously it's a gradual thing, but lets say the time for today is 07:32pm...I'm assuming that at that time, the sun will be gone from the sky...but wont there be residual light left over for a while? Sorry, I've just never payed much attention to it! Thanks

The measure of the supplement of an angle is 60 less than three times the measure of the complement of the angle. Find the measure of the angle.
*** supplement= 180 degrees
***complement= 90 degrees
Also please explain the best you can...I have to show work!! Thanks!!!

i find this theory fascinating, but i have no reference point as far as whether or not it gets taken seriously, if you're not familiar with it, in the 70s, a botonist named Terrence Mckenna smoked some DMT in the amazonian rainforest, and a hallucinatory voice told him to investigate the I'ching. when he did, he found that if you apply a mandelbrot fractal equation to the iching hexagrams, a timewave that ends on dec 22 2012 (same day as mayan calendar ends) emerges.
