If you are "pushing the envelope" when it doesn't add up it will catch up to you sooner or later. It's better to do the smart thing and be alive then to do something stupid and be dead or worse. There are much worse things then being dead, like being paralyzed from the neck down.

That and it's not really much fun to see people die or seriously injured.

I went with the HC5 and now have about 70 jumps with it. Most of the jumps have been freefly with a few RW jumps. So far I have been very happy with the video quality. I just bought a Blu-ray disk player and have wrote some skydiving video to DVD's in AVCHD format at 8mbps bitrate. I can say that I am very happy with the way the look on my TV.

You must be joking. "common people"?! Where do you think govenments come from? Oppressive or not governments are made up of people common or other wise. Get rid of one ruler and the next may or may not be better. Get rid of one Gov and the next may or may not be better. We have the Gov our culture creates. We as a collective are responsible for the Gov in place.

I don't think that's altogether accurate. Anything that doesn't support the foregone conclusion goes in the "God works in mysterious ways" or "It's God's will" category and is subsequently claimed to evidence in support of the conclusion. Yeah I forgot about that. That just makes it even more questionable.

You are not very convincing and neither is the bible. I think you are delusional and so was your father. After 75 years of research you have no evidence to support your claims. You take a conclusion and then look for anything to support it and discard anything that doesn't. That is a piss poor way of researching and has no credibility.

Even Albert Einstein just proved the wisdom of Jesus and probably didnt even know it! Einstein..."I have repeatedly said that in my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one." Jesus..."I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven" This is an excellent example of starting with a conclusion and looking for supporting evidence. You just took what Einstein said and twisted it to support your conclusion. Very sad. Like Kallend said grasping at straws.

The only way I would side mount that camera is with a 2K Composites FF3 helmet. That will reduce the width as much as possible. Anything else will be too wide.

yeah I can't spell can I I do have spelling correct. Why would they name the band after soup? Oh well I never did listen to them.

I think you made all that up and are just using your imagination when reading your KJv bible. You don't have any proof or evidence to support any of what you say. Deitys are just a human construct used to explain what they don't understand. Your dates will come and go with out any of your predictions coming true.

Did you try the sesos tacos? or the lengua tacos? I prefer lengua. I guess that or menudo is probably the only food that I have had that might be considered strange.

If it were me I would do the jump. I think odds of not getting hurt are pretty good, but hey anything is possible.

I think this is your most senseless statement to date.

You're right. Every morning, I have to have someone pull me out of bed and wipe the drool off my chin. Sometimes, when I go to pour my coffee, it's nothing but cold water, because I forget to grind the coffee or turn on the heat. Using your mighty critical thinking skills, and the evolutionary theory, is there life in other solar systems? I don't want to hear, "I don't know." No waffling. What does your critical thinking tell you. It's either yes or no. If the answer is yes, then the possibility of something so superior to our physical and intellectual being is very possible. If you say no, then you are no different than the creationists that you despise. I don't know if there is life on other planets. It is possible that there is life on other planets. I think there is probably life on other planets. You can call that waffling if you want. Yes it is possible that there are life forms out there superior to humans just like it's possible that unicorns exist. We don't have any evidence of either. You are not helping your cause with stupid questions like this one.

Have scientists found the source of energy yet??

Neither do I, that's why it's important to ask questions and not just take things on faith.

If I told you you could jump out of an airplane and live, but never demonstrated it to you and you had never seen or heard of anyone ever doing so. Wouldn't you be skeptical? It would be tough to risk your life on just my word. Wouldn't you want more then that before jumping?

What other way is there? If you don't use logic and evidence then what do you use? Feelings are much more unreliable.

BillVon, Why would they lie about something like this???

Fair enough in that regard, but what about outside a court system? That's a pretty narrow perspective. You're view is only derived from a chosen political theory on how to be fair in society. I'm wondering about a larger scale... Outside the court system you can believe anything you want and call anything you want evidence. But if you want to convince someone that what you think is true then you need to be able to provide evidence and logic as to why you think the way you think that can be tested. If you can't then ____.

Statement UV light is harmful to humans Expose humans to prolonged UV light and measure the effects. God can not be tested to exist. Evidence at it's best could be said to flawed, since humans do not always do things consistently or perfectly. But if you have no evidence of something to test then you requre faith. Science does not rely on faith because science is always questiong everything. If you can provide evidence that is testable and can be recreated by others that a known and accepted scientific notion is false then it will be accepted. This is not true of religion.

If you go into court with a written document that has not been signed by any witnesses or is even the original document in the original language and claim it as an eye witness testimony the judge will not accept it. For a judge to accept an eye witness testimony the eye witness needs to be present for cross examination. Kind of hard to do when the "eye witness" is dead.

Just because they see a flower to be evidence of God doesn't mean it is evidence of God. When trying to convince others of the validity of your claim then yes it must be testable and provable.

They think there is a difference but there really isn't. Evidence is either there or it isn't, other wise faith is required.

Just some random thoughts here. It is apparent that every Christian that has argued the existence of God here on this forum is severely lacking in critical thinking skills. I really don't understand why they insist on claiming evidence that does not actually qualify as evidence. A good critical thinking tool is asking at least 5 questions about how you "know" something is true. If you can not answer those questions then you really don't know it to 100% true. Always question your source of information. This is what science is all about. Faith is not a part of science and never has been or ever will be.
