If evolution is true, and your thought process is a result of random electrical pulses in your brain, and your brain is a result of random chemicals being formed haphazardly, then how can you trust your own thoughts, reasoning and logic?

and has no meaning (i.e., pure chance implies chaos implies no meaning), then why do you (as a group) spend so much time and effort trying to convince other people of the merits of your position?

And a follow-up, why do you (as a group) seem to loathe Christians more than Native American Indians or Satanists?

East Indians come with practically nothing from India. So of course they are always going to look for the best deal and tend to be a bit on the thrifty side. East Indians are still one of the wealthiest minorities in the United States. So what's the problem?
SERIOUS ANSWERS ONLY PLEASE, please TRY to refrain from rude wisecracks.

It's very harmful to the self-esteem of millions of Americans. Why did Star Jones, Nicole Richie, Linsday Lohan, and Anna Nicole Smith have to lose weight to be considered attractive? I thought these ladies were better looking with a little meat on their bones.

If you go to a Latino or African country they admire the beauty of curvy women. For example I read a article about a Guyanese girl who noticed the diffrence between the Carribean and the West world. In Guyana, someone like Paris Hilton, Kate moss, or anyone woman built like a supermodel would be considered unattractive because of their body shape.

Please, contact me if you like it.

Thanks.

It's adjective-noun reversement.But I don't know the grammatical reason why Europeans reverse their words.In English we'll say "big dog",but in Spanish or French they reverse it saying the noun "dog" first ,then the adjective "big".I haven't been able to figure out why,even though I've read several language instruction guides,but they don't ever mention that grammatical aspect of European languages or explain how that law of their grammer is to be applied. If you can tell me this you will have cleared up a long standing mystery for me.Thanks in Advance!

Don't go "proof text" crazy on me here (quoting the Bible outlandishly). This is a philosophical question about theology. What is the nature of sin? What is it and does it spread like a disease? Is it an offense against God? Against mankind? Why does sin offend God? Does sin offend mankind? Is it beneficial to mankind to throw the terminology of "sin" out altogether?
