I'm giving a speech on the boy scouts intolerance of Atheist and Homosexuals, I'm trying to find websites to cite certain information. 1. Does anyone know a study or anything showing what Career has the most child molestion (I'm hoping it's church related but still does anyone know one?) 2. Does...

This is a logic question, not a scientific one hence I put it on this board. I found it interesting, and I'm sorting through it-- looking for some :) "wholesome" :) feedback. The argument is presented by Alvin Plantiga and can be found at length here...

I have trouble understanding something that I hope someone here can clear up. I have no problem in accepting that life arose from some chemical soup. It makes sense to me on a lot of levels. What I don’t have a clear picture of, is if science contends that ALL life is the byproduct of the...

Hello all This is a news for you. Best wishes.

Nightmares, you know I hate them. A couple of nights ago I had a real dozy: Something was forcing to look into open graves and seeing the decomposed corpses within. Of course, the skeletal remains would come out of the earth and start to pursue me. I woke up in a cold sweat, so terrified that I...

A horrible thing, the draft. Makes for a bad army. There really is no good reason for it. There is an attempt to get it started from time to time. I believe the thinking is that if politicians had their own kids drafted into the army, they would be less likely to run off to war. Experience...
