This thread is rubbish. I demand pics of ghostly decapitated horsemen and so forth.

Firstly, we don't need you to tell us what this forum is for. While this may be a science web site, the Religion and Philosophy forum is - perhaps surprisingly - for discussions of and pertaining to religion and philosophy. By dictating your own opinions and labelling them as the definition of religion you are undermining your own case. Anyone who is given arbitrary control over the religion forum will try to stifle free discussion to their own ends - exactly as you are doing, in fact. If you think that the religion forum would be best moderated by experts in a religion, then by all means show us one expert of any religion on these boards, who has no agenda, evangelic bias, or insane streak.

"Unevolution"? Oh please.

Can you all please bear in mind that when we announce the 100,000th post it would be preferable if it is not something innane.

Post #47.

You think one Sunday paper columnist is representative of our nation?

I have already said what they are for.

Nothing in the works. We don't use it because we don't yet have any need.

Just out of curiosity, does that include atheists and agnostics?

Bit busy this week I'll get around to it.

I think you could probably say goodbye to a good deal of the crust if something the size of the moon hit us.

Antip's patient, apparently.

Firstly, I did not say there is no evidence for what ghosts are (note the part in parenthesis), and secondly, I was not posting my view. My point was that we don't take things we don't yet understand and randomly decide what the explanation is (rather than denying they exist at all - which is what herme3's post implies). "Ball of light? Ohhhh, how about disembodied soul? Works for me."

To be fair a serious scientist won't call ghosts fictional, they will simply point out that there is no evidence of what the (unexplained instances of the) phenoma actually are.

You may have heard them referred to as "valves". They can be in an on or off state, and were used in computers before the advent of transistors.

If this person is inhaling the spray and still not stopping, it could be a real problem. If antiperspirant can block pores, imagine what it will do for gaseous exchange in the lungs.

No, really. Please do not tell any of us.

User groups can be given certain sets of permissions. We don't use that feature (yet).

Turn off automatic subscription in your user cp?

The aim of cold fusion is to get fusion happening at or near room temperature - that does not mean "the colder the better".

I don't think I did show you any maths. Are you referring to Swansont?

I thought of another: antimatter.

Do you not think it's the case that those electromagnetic forces would have the same effect if the water and the dam were not being subjected to gravity?
