It's an opinion piece by Jack Duggan, not a Russian, but full of woo! Think he's from Jersey?

People are so used to being indoctrinated by government that they have actually been convinced to ignore their own eyes. Everyone who saw the videos of the World Trade Center Towers saw them fall exactly like other high-rise buildings that were dropped by sequential demolition charges, at the speed of gravity because there was no structural resistance below to impede their collapse into their basement footprints. Yet almost every viewer has been convinced by the lap-dog media that measly jet-fuel fires could melt the massive steel girders of both buildings, then make everything collapse. Just like a pilot's foot pedals could make a passenger jet burst into flames, then crash in Rockaway, NY. Apparently the federal government has learned that the public will buy any lie, no matter how absurd, if it's repeated often enough.

There were dozens and dozens of reports by rescue workers on the ground at the WTC complex that heard explosions over an hour after the planes crashed into the towers. They felt explosions under their feet that were so powerful that seismographs registered them at 2.1 and 2.3 on the Richter scale. Only explosions could have caused them.

The weekend before the 9/11 WTC demolition, all power was shut down to install "computer cables." No one was allowed inside and all security cameras and alarms had no power for 30 hours. Computer cables don't connect with building electricity, so the need to turn off and close both towers to do so is indicative of another motive, like planting charges without alarms and video surveillance. Marvin Bush, brother to President George and Jeb, was a principal in Securacom, which was in charge of security for the World Trade Center. Didn't hear that on the TV news, did you?

No offense, but has there ever been a day when the english pravda was not filled with complete lunacy?

That's what they do.
 
Researchers looking into the case of “Alionshenka the Alien” have arrived at a sensational conclusion: the mysterious creature did not catch his death of cold as previously thought. They believe the supposed alien was killed.

Read part first of the article about the Russian alien here

“He didn’t die from natural causes,” said Vadim Chernobrov, a coordinator with the public research center Kosmopoisk. “We found out that his skull had been fractured,” Chernobrov added.

The mysterious dwarf was found near the town of Kyshtym of the Chelyabinsk region. Stanislav Samoshkin is a morbid anatomist who performed autopsy on the body of the dwarf in a local hospital. He was the first to claim that the creature was a non-human being.

“The human skull consists of six bones. The skull of that creature was made up of four bones,” Samoshkin said.

Crazy? ever read the DSM? (I have a degree in Psychology).

EVERYONE is crazy. People who follow religions can be called psychotic (confusing reality with their fantasies).

As can people who blindly believe in Darwinian theories without reading his stuff (he was, in fact, a racist and a plagiarist. Part of my degree was on evolutionary theories. btw, "creationalism" is not an evolutionary theory, it is just nonsense.)

I good study in crazy beliefs - read William Bramley´s "Jesus goes to Hollywood" - he tries to "proove" 20 different, contradictory theories about the big J, and it is compelling reading.

What is with you people and the word "woo"? Do you not realise how babyish it sounds?

The word should only be used when discussing Hong Kong action movies.

That would be "wu" which is Chinese for "war".

1) Most white westerners were to some degree racist. Darwin himself was no more racist than any other academic of the time (arguably less). Please read this.

2) Like any other scientist, Darwin built upon and was inspired by, the work of others. Please read this.

3) None of this has any bearing on the quality or veracity of his work, nor of those who have built upon it since. Both points you assert are frequently trotted out by anti-evolutionists/creationists/ID believers in vain attempts to discredit Darwin and his theory, as I'm sure you must be aware.

PS Not sure I see the relevance of your evolutionary education here. Part of my degree was on computer graphics. I couldn't Photoshop breasts onto a picture of Pamela Anderson.
 
Doesn't "pravda" mean "truth" in Russian? Just more evidence that anything with "truth" in the title is likely a pack of lies.

Is it necessary to have knowledge of Newton’s main body of work (alchemy and bible sturdy) when deciding on the merits of gradational theory, or on the usefulness of calculus?

Scientific theories stand or fall on their own merits and the evidence for and against them- the personal opinions of the originator of the theory and indeed working practices used to arrive at eth theory are irrelevant once the evidence is in.


The evidence for evolution is in, and ad homanim attacks against Darwin do nothing to distract from that.

Whenever I hear or see the word "truth" come from a CF I immediately translate it to "Completely made up dogsh!t that isn't supported by evidence and may be something that said CF might possibly touch himself to at night."
