WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The percentage of U.S. adults who believe that God created humans in their present form at some time within the last 10,000 years or so -- the strict creationist view -- has reached a new low. Thirty-eight percent of U.S. adults now accept creationism, while 57% believe in some form of evolution -- either God-guided or not -- saying man developed over millions of years from less advanced forms of life.http://www.gallup.com/poll/210956/belief-creationist-view-humans-new-low.aspx

Didn't you read it? Or are you an ignorant liar?The wiki talks about the %YEC in USA . This comes from Gallup: WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The percentage of U.S. adults who believe that God created humans in their present form at some time within the last 10,000 years or so -- the strict creationist view -- has reached a new low. Thirty-eight percent of U.S. adults now accept creationism, while 57% believe in some form of evolution -- either God-guided or not -- saying man developed over millions of years from less advanced forms of life.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young_Earth_creationism http://www.gallup.com/poll/210956/belief-creationist-view-humans-new-low.aspx 38% YEC's and USA has +/- 324mil people.

I don't hate religion. People don't chose what or who they are.

I found something interesting concerning this subject and posted it... Consciousness arises from knowledge/information which is stored via connected neural pathways.

Seriously? You have obviously very little knowledge concerning this subject and you don't bother to look things up....what's the point of this discussion? I was wrong, USA has at least 123.000.000 YEC's.

Where does the -1 curvature comes from? Does it have any experimental value? And are there quantum gravity models that concern 0 or +1 curvature?

interesting stuff. It is widely accepted that the synapse plays a role in the formation of memory. As neurotransmitters activate receptors across the synaptic cleft, the connection between the two neurons is strengthened when both neurons are active at the same time, as a result of the receptor's signaling mechanisms. The strength of two connected neural pathways is thought to result in the storage of information, resulting in memory. This process of synaptic strengthening is known as long-term potentiation.[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synapse#Role_in_memory

You never answer on statements that matter. I've noticed this behavior of you before...it's very annoying.

Religion teaches forgiveness but it alo teaches a lot of other stuff...then what's the point of religion? You're on the path that you deny 'facts', to fit your beliefs which are based on personal experience.

This is what I read."At the most basic level, memories are stored as microscopic chemical changes at the connection points between neurons in the brain."

Moslims are known for women mal treatment. There are many verses in the Quran about women mal treatment. But you deny this obvious causal relationship?

Young earth creationists have probably a very different idea concerning the significance of the OT. The USA has probably more then 140 000 000 YEC....

Yes and they also teach you to hit women, kill homosexuals and resent infidels.

The antisense technique is applicable on grown humans. I suppose they intravenous inject nucleotides that bind to mRNA to silence 'bad' genes or alleles. If via DNA analysis you know you will get a genetic disease then with the antisense technique, you can prevent a disease from manifesting. When you already have the genetic disease then you can slow down or block the progress with an antisense therapy. The CIRPSR method changes the DNA so I think it's ' future music' before this is applicable on fully grown humans. The method is atm in development to treat embryo's. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2123973-first-results-of-crispr-gene-editing-of-normal-embryos-released/

The OT is just as much part of the bible as is the NT. Interpretations have only a personal meaning, they have no scientific value. Many people must have told this before but you keep repeating it. Just like your idea that secularity doesn't provide the mental support that comes from religion.

The OT is part of the bible, no need to discuss this. The stories (Isaac, Esau, Moses...)from in the OT is the first thing I learned at school and this counts I suppose for most people that got a Christian education.. The way many Christians treat atheists and the prejudices comes from the NT.(Ephesians 4:18)

If Arya kills Littlefinger then she has his face. Can she use that to get close enough to Cersei to kill her?

The books say a lot of other things as well and personal experiences don't say anything of what's going on in the rest of the world. Many Moslims teach their children apostasy and being gay deserves the death penalty. Many Christians teach their children to resent homosexuality...the bible states homosexuality deserves the death penalty.(Leviticus 20:13)

Today I learned about the Wallace Line. The Wallace Line (or Wallace’s Line) is a boundary that separates the zoogeographical regions of Asia and Australasia. West of the line are found organisms related to Asiatic species; to the east, mostly organisms related to Australian species. The line is named after Alfred Russel Wallace, who noticed the apparent dividing line during his travels through the East Indies in the 19th century.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallace_Line

How do you know people that teach religion teach forgiveness?

The antisense technique is a way of blocking/silencing a particular gene which is known to be causative of a particular disease, by adding correct nucleotides which bind with mRNA to prevent mRNA from binding with a ribosome. There are many therapies being developed to treat certain diseases. There is a trial going on to test the AON(Antisense OligoNucleotide) technique on people with Huntington. It's a very promising therapy but it doesn't cure a disease, it prevents diseases from manifesting or it can slow or block the progress. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisense_therapy#Cancer CIRPSR is also a very promising technique but it has to develop/evolve a lot to be safe and effective.

'godsdienst' refers to theistic religions.

I don't mean that one neuron stores observable knowledge. You need many connected neurons.

Unfounded claims...except for the anecdote I can back everything up. For many people those things are common knowledge.
