I would consider that I hybrid. The coolest hybrid I have ever seen was a 6 way base with 3 hangers. They then broke it apart into 3 sections, each section with one hanger and turned 3 points. (not sure of the number of points but it was definitely more the 2). I really wish I was on that dive, but I didn't make it out to the dropzone that day.

I currently have 1417 jumps and no reserve rides yet. I pack for my self and I think it's most just luck that I haven't had a RR yet. I don't worry about or really think about it much. Sometimes I pack very neatly and other times I am in a hurry and just rush through the pack job.

It would have to be valid to begin with before you can invaldate it!
-
[sarcasm]Oh well that is so much more credible now![/sarcasm] I don't buy any of that. What is that saying. Luck is where preperation meets opportunity? I can't remember who said that. People become millionaires because of what the do physically not by mentally controlling the world around them.

I am at work. Youtube is blocked.

Sounds like a joke to me. You sure it isn't a joke?
-
I don't know what that is.

That's nice, but it doesn't work for me. You can call what ever you want god, but I still don't see any evidence of an deity.

Something cannot come out of nothing. No science has ever been able to make something out of nothing, and by nothing I dont mean space of nothingness...I mean NOTHING. I think the initial spark of life was created, and evoltion has ben the natural progression of this existance. Hmm sounds kind of like the Transformers cartoon spark of life and everything. Something may possibly have created "life", but there is no evidence to support that idea. I don't pretend to know how life started, but we do have plenty of evidence of life evolving. Religion does claim to know how life started. I think that is just bull shit. They have nothing to support their beliefs. If they did then it wouldn't require faith. I have never come across any indication or evidence that any deity exists, therefore I can only conclude there are none. Could there be a god? Yes, just like someone else said earlier in this thread there could also be invisible trolls living under my bed. Both are equally likely from what I can tell.

Do you have any old wingsuits to go with them?

How did you come up with all that info on such short notice?
-
How did you get this "Spirtual understanding" before having read the bible? So that you were able to recognize the KJV as the ONE?? How do you know your "Spirtual understanding" is correct?
-
In your post you made statments. You never said how you arrived at those conclusions. That is my question. So what you are saying is that you had "Spirtual understanding" so you were able to recognize that the KJV is the correct bible and all the others are not? Is that right?
-
That's nice. But how do you know this to be true??
-
Why do you think the KJV is the correct version?? What about the manuscripts that it was translated from?
-
Yeah I would love to have one for coaching. It would great to be able to tell someone to quit arching or lean back because the are driving forward. Hand signals are not always noticed or interpreted correctly.

There is already a system being sold in Paragear. It's pretty expensive, otherwise I would have one.

Using a motorcycle helmet for skydiving?

What happened? -
The heliocentric model of the solar system was debated without evidence for over two thousand years before our mathematical modeling caught up to prove it. I agree time and lack of evidence can hinder acceptance of a theory. But, I will never agree that lack of evidence invalidates any theory. I wouldn't say that they debated the solar system model with out any evidence at all. They did have visual evidence that some believed suggested that the sun did not revolve around the earth. That is more then creationism has show for it. I don't think that a lack of evidence automatically invalidates any theory. What I do think is that creationism after thousands of years has no evidence, so if in all that time they can't come up with anything to support it then it must be wrong or at least be unreasonable to believe in. I didn't put all of that in the statements that you quoted, but I would think it would be easy to tell from reading all my posts.
-
From what you quoted I would add that with creationism you need to also consider the amount of time it has been around with out any evidence to support it. It's not just the absence of evidence that makes it useless. If no one has in thousands of years found any evidence to support it then it can be considered bullshit. While I did not say that in those qoutes it is well known and could be considered to be implied.
-
I don't remember actually saying that. I did say it is unreasonable to believe in a theory that has no evidence. That doesn't mean you can't search for evidence to support it. But after thousands of years with out any evidence it is really hard to say that creationism is worth anything at all.
-
The absence of evidence does not make the theory any more credible. In fact it makes it that much harder to believe, especially since there is a much more believable theory that does have evidence to support it. Creationism is just not believable and is totally unreasonable. Why do you want to put creationism on the same level as evolution?
-
Even with out evolution it is unreasonable to believe in creationism. Creationism does not stand up to reason. Try taking a critical thinking class.
-
I understand what you are trying to say, but with out any evidence it is unreasonable to believe in creationism. There is a lot of evidence to support evolution. So evolutions is a much more believable theory. Just because they weren't taken seriously doesn't mean there wasn't evidence to support them.
-
It would be stupid to dedicate your whole life to a theory that has no evidence. Deitys and creationism has been around for thousands of years and in that time not one shred of evidence has been found to support them. It is unreasonable to believe in any deity or creationism. If science had a similar theory that had been around for as long and also had no evidence, it would not be taken very seriously.
