  1. Why didn't the ejecta leave a trail? I've watched it several times imatfaal, it looks to me like the main meteor is in the sky and does not pass in front of the wires, in those lighting conditions and with camera focusing on such a distant object I think that passing in front of the wire is a camera artifact. Also it must have been very high to appear to move that slowly. I think I would have stayed with the ejecta on camera instead of following the main body. I have some real doubts that a piece could be shot away from the main body by a pocket of gas, and it appears to accelerate and get smaller as though it is moving away from the camera.
  2. What appears to be a meteor ejects a piece of it's self at high speed in the opposite direction of the meteors trajectory. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1597338447166606
  3. My computer is acting up, it says it cannot find ATL71.DLL, I can't up date anything due to this problem, any safe and cheap fixes you guys know about?
  4. Since I didn't reply to this post i thought I would do so In this post you are using a strawman, the word sacrifice implies a conscious action, simply not being able to escape predators is not a sacrifice. Other social animals will attempt to take care of their members to the extent of their abilities, an injured wolf will be fed by it's pack mates as an example. I responded to this message: No nature doesn't act that way, not in social animals.Overtone did point this out. This is demonstrably not true unless you are using some holy book I am unaware of.
  5. If you had bothered to actually read your holy book you would see that your "logic" is flawed. Further more we are social animals, we support behaviors that allow our society to go one, taking stuff from people just because you are stronger is wrong in the context of the morals our society decrees...
  6. May I ask what you are doing with the salt water or is it an exercise in corrosion study...
  7. Sometimes the truth is the best humor... http://www.motherjones.com/environment/2014/12/worst-science-denial-2014
  8. Predestined? pre·des·tine prēˈdestin/ verb past tense: predestined; past participle: predestined (of God) destine (someone) for a particular fate or purpose. "Calvinists believed that every person was predestined by God to go to heaven or to hell" determine (an outcome or course of events) in advance by divine will or fate. "she was certain that fate was with her and everything was predestined" synonyms: preordained, ordained, predetermined, destined, fated "I find it hard to believe that our lives are predestined I'm not sure why you would think predestined has anything to do with organic molecules being present in space. minaras is this what you are asserting? ​Since chemistry is deterministic and not random and certain chemicals are more common than others and more reactive than others I think it can be said that certain chemical combinations are more likely to form than others. H2O for instance is the second most common molecule in the universe. This has nothing to with gods or anything supernaturally predestined.
  9. You are correct I misread the article... Still it doesn't change the fact that complex organic molecules are found in space, minaras's assertion that organics are only associated with life is demonstrably false... And the assertion that it is just random is false as well...
  10. All of them are found in space as well or are the result of non life chemical reactions in nature... DNA as well is found in meteorites...
  11. Yes but a clone would not be the same person, your memories is what makes you you.
  12. You appear to misunderstand me, if for instance someone was to raise my grandfather back from the dead all his memories intact exactly as he was that would be impressive, maybe not absolute proof but i think it would do it for me..
  13. In biblical times a baby was not considered alive until it was infused with the spirit, at that time spirit meant breath, so until the baby drew breath it was not considered alive.
  14. I am a poet and I do know it but you cannot assert something as true with out being able to show it and be honest. Proof of God? Raising someone who has been dead for a few decades would be reasonably convincing...
  15. If you can't show it, you don't know it...
  16. Well just maybe you met atheists and didn't know it, what clinched it for me was looking into the bible closer than what was taught in sunday school. Once you read all of it it becomes difficult to be honest and a believer at the same time...
  17. They are pretty but they don't live in freshwater...
  18. I think minaras owes me an answer, where do you draw the line under your definition of organic? Is grain alcohol organic? Are proteins organic, what about RNA?
  19. Has anyone seen this reboot of TOS Star Trek? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLjApD7qFmc
  20. These things may be true but are they legitimate reasons for harming other human beings?
