How would you identify an alien if you met one?

They do that quite a bit here as well...

Would you consider it possible that non intelligent organisms like social insects could attain technology? The idea that our radio and or TV broad casts are detectable at a distance related to how long we have been broad casting is unlikely. Interstellar gas and dust would absorb our signal leakage well before it reached the nearest star... Some how I doubt it...

That version of Happy was filmed where I live, all the people are locals...

SwansonT got me again!

I know you are trying to insult me by ignoring me but I will take your questions on. Why god exists is begging the question, why the singularity existed is not. Of course i am taking the Abrahamic version of god which has a non answer to why god exists, if you just want to talk generic god it is still begging the question from several directions. The singularity is not the end of questioning, there are many hypothesis that deal with where and why of what we call the singularity many paths that are being investigated but god always existed is not an answer it is a question. So tell me why which god you ascribe to and i can take it apart or not as the case may be but the mystery of god is a question, the mysteries of the natural are always open to investigation, Brobdingnagian or infinitesimal the mysteries of the natural world are open to question always, there is no "well we're here time to stop looking" in science but that is all religion really is... This might might make things a bit clearer Fred Champion... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O941fIJsS8c

Theology VS Technology ROFLMAO

Is this an effect that can be explained? The bottom of the slinky always hovers until the top reaches it... https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-caaugfzCvlg/U8602uHWxVI/AAAAAAAAFuM/pgAkBL9NzWM/w280-h314-no/dada.jpg

It only makes us more moral if we have the morals to cherry pick the parts we already know are moral.... Can you point out where we said anything not suitable for teenagers? Just remember god watches you all the time

My basic question is why we should consider any religious laws at all, they consist of misogyny, genocide, infanticide, rape, child rape, murder, the list goes on and on in fact there are 613 of them. You have yet to give any reason we should follow them which set we should follow and why you exclude billions of people who evidently can do anything they want. Why I ask are you so obsessed with the sexual morals of others? Sex education and safe sex addresses your issues very nicely. Your.. I hesitate to say your "understanding" of human sexuality is poor to none. I would suggest you stop worrying about others sexuliaty or sexual behavior and take a long hard look at your own antiquated attitudes... In our society, and that is all either of us can discuss with any real knowledge, there are problems, most of them caused by the very "books" you want to follow. The problems you seem to have are way above my pay grade... Science and religion will never be reconciled because they deal with two completely different realms, fantasy and reality...

So now you want to argue who has feathers and how many feathers they have? Glad you did... Sad you didn't look up sexuality... It all depends on where you get your laws from, you keep mentioning this "book" care to tell me which one is correct and why? This is in direct contradiction of what you said... You said: That quote thing is a bitch isn't it? Since there are billions of people not covered by the Abrahamic religion I suggest you check for your own feathers..

Possibly, I'll give you that but to me it is just as bad, the bible is the word of Emperor Constantine doesn't make it any better... I suggest you read your bible, those laws only applied to Jews who were enslaved by other Jews... Considering much of the bible is indeed bad for you and the people around you... Horse feathers, I've been married for 40 years, I would never go on to other women. There is no such thing as 100% safe breathing either No,in the real world a man takes care of his family. Why do you have this dystopian view of sexuality? You go from what the bible says to what the law says, if the law said men could marry little girls you would be ok with that? If they pay taxes do you not think they deserve the benefits of those tax dollars? So you are ok with men marrying little girls and owning females as slaves? If as you say the laws are based on the bible then yes... So god is irrelevant and how ever you want to live your life be it a serial killer or having a harem of little boys is ok? So you ignore the 4 or 5 billion people who do not follow the Bible, the Koran, or the Torah?

You are mistaken, the books that would be included in the New testament were approved by popular vote of church officials. I doubt whether any of them were under threat of death to do what Constantine wanted.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Council_of_Nicaea Any chance you could tell us which parts are attributable to god? So slavery is ok? So what ever you feel is good to you is what you should follow? Ok, so this applies to men as well as women? Fred This makes no sense to me, could be more specific? You don't think birth control is a game changer? Safe sex prohibits both pregnancy and STD's So a woman has far more responsibilities when it comes to sex? This is just sexist twaddle... So group marriage is ok? One woman several men or one man and several women? How about Male male marriage or woman woman marriage? Let's be clear on what you call marriage and why...

All I can think of is Noah the only guy who had a boat...

If you are just going to brush aside the bits you don't like, don't agree with, or think aren't true or possible with why bother with it at all? I'll bet my morals and your's as well are better than the morality of the bible. The bible is stuck in time, later bronze age, in one chapter it actually says gods army was defeated because the enemy had chariots of iron... so god is vulnerable to iron chariots? It's gets pretty silly arguing for a god that can't trump iron chariots. I would suggest you sit down and take a day to read exactly what you are referring to instead of taking bits and pieces of it out of context...

Here it is... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bx3PYFwnnA

Yes that is them, I was under the impression they had been taken off the market, I have an obsession with magnets and lasers, I'll try and repeat the experiment and let you guys know how it went. Thanks for the links, I have been wanting some of the putty stuff that eats magnets, have you seen that stuff?

I plan to try it again, I'll video it if possible, it puzzles me greatly. The magnets are powerful enough to affect each other on a smooth table 12" apart, they do not have a flat side but are amazingly difficult to pull apart or push together... They are ceramic not metal

The other night I was playing around with a couple of magnets I have, they are very powerful and were sold as toys for a short time but injuries to kids caused them to be pulled off the market. The magnets are oblong, thinker in the middle than the ends, about 2" long and maybe 3/4 of an inch think at the middle. The poles are centered in the middle instead of the ends. The idea of them being a toy was that you could throw them in the air and they would find each other and orbit each other for a fraction of a second. They make a rattling noise as they come together and orbit each other. I was eating boiled eggs, yes I like boiled eggs, and I put an egg that had yet to have it's shell removed and noticed the egg moved toward the magnet. I picked them up and found the magnet and the egg had an effect on each other, it was weak but but real. How or why would a magnet have any effect on a boiled chicken egg?

So no humans currently alive saw "it" so your totally unsupported gibberish is just as good as empirically tested repeatable scientific evidence? You do not have to personally witness something to find out if it is true. That is one of the saddest arguments from personal incredulity I have read in some time. Do yourself a favor and watch a few episodes of CSI to get an understanding of how evidence allows us to know what happened in the past as opposed to having faith in totally unsupported nonsense.. You are the one who made a positive assertion. I simply asked you to show me evidence you are correct...
