    http://www.kent-hovind.com/ Yup, he's a quack.... I think I hear the same laughter as Sarah.... "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    Um.....Yeah.....Thanks. "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    Wow! You GO Girl!!!! "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    From the American Heritage dictionaries, a defination of faith: "Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence." For me, "logical proof" and "material evidence" are crucial to rational thought. Your mileage may vary. "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    No insults...Just observation. Giving credit to a "higher being" for the ability to think rationally and having to suspend rational thought in order to believe in the higher being seems ironic. Sorry if you feel insulted-it wasn't the intent. "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    Yet to believe you must have "faith" (the suspension of rational thought.) Hmmmmm..... "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    I seem to recall a story about a rich man, a camel, and the eye of a needle.... By coincidence, "Jesse Duplantis" Just flew into Springfield in his Dassault Mystère 50 (tri-jet). http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N770JD Tithe, people! Jet-A is getting expensive!!

    Sorry, Tony...I've only had 2 cups of coffee today. I'm not myself yet. "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    (Thanks for the correction, GFD!) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ( Not really, I don't really care anymore.) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Right......Of course you don't. That must be why you started this thread..... The girl in the pic you posted is pleasant to look at. Trying to draw any other conclusions about her would be a waste of time. One thing I find sexy is a woman who is comfortable in her own skin, and you can't tell that from a picture. ymmv, Steve "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon.

    Happy birthday Lindsey! (You should celebrate with a trip to Siloam Springs....I've heard rumors of a boogie next month.)

    Bodies Exhibit

    stevebabin replied to SBS's topic in The Bonfire

    I will be seeing this exhibit Tuesday in Atlanta. It looks fascinating... "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    I think Windcatcher will read this and convert.... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0812976568/103-0464926-4631055 "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    Agreed. My XAOS 21 has proven to be a much better choice. "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    I'm with Dave on this one. I am a fan of the paper ring on the goggles. I was filming a CRW jump once, hop&pop from 10k on an FX 93. I had severe line twists and one of my risers snagged the ringsight. It started spinning and I didn't get it cleared off the ringsight until 4k. It left me with a nice scar on my right index finger and no desire to jump with a ringsight ever again. I understand that there are breakaway plastic screws that many people use now that would make it a bit safer, but for me, the paper ring on the goggles works great. FWIW, Steve "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    Seems like a stupid question with an obvious answer.... Am I missing something here? "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    Never hitchiked myself but have picked up many hitchikers over the years. (I figured that I might need a ride someday) I reasoned that if someone was stupid enough to try harming the driver of the vehicle he was riding in, then he probably wasn't smart enough to wear a seatbelt and could be easily incapacitated with a large immovable object.

    Or Windcatchers quest for the "truth".... "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    I was thinking more along the lines of a popular religious figure that Windcatcher seems to have a fondness for... "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    So do you think your children will have imaginary friends? "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And I apologize if I sound too harsh, I did grow up with a father who got arrested for protesting abortion He had the courage to stand up for what he believed, even if that meant getting thrown in jail. Like him, I am not afraid to back down on my position about this, not matter the disagreements that will be thrown at me -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Can you elaborate on this for me? The last time I checked, it wasn't illegal to protest abortion. There are, of course limits as to how people protest, but no one was ever jailed under a charge of simply protesting abortion. What was he charged with? "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."

    Um....Because women are beautiful and men aren't? "Science, logic and reason will fly you to the moon. Religion will fly you into buildings." "Because figuring things out is always better than making shit up."
