The Eye: Evolution versus Creationism

Posted by Hemos on from the this-should-be-a-pleasant-server-test dept.

Sox2 writes "SciScoop is running a story about researchers in Germany who claim to have solved the "mystery" surrounding the evolution of the mamalian eye. The work, published in Science, goes some way to answering the issues raised in the "intelligent design" debate that has become the mainstay of creationist thinking."

    Hey! They are looking for a Unix Administrator.

    Oh wait, this is Slashdot, where people only pretend to use Unix and spend their day playing games on their spam sending Windows machines.

    Just some food for thought.

    You're such a moron, thought needs food like my butt needs a cavity search. Oxygen dude, Oxygen! Thought needs oxygen not food. Go back to your little AOL chatroom n00b.

    I take particular offense to that. Since humans can also be food for some other animals on the planet I am going to sue you for a hate crime.

    Bush is a fundamentalist, and he still has a good chance of being elected, so perhaps you are in denial?

    Bush will not be elected BECAUSE he is a supposed fundamentalist. He will not be elected due to his support of human rights (if he was really worried, he would have gone after North Korea, or any number of other countries), or ability to balance the budget (speaks for itself), or his ability to involve everybody in a common cause(we as a nation are more divided than ever before), his ability to "protect" America from terrorist( he had a nearly free ability to go after Bin Ladin for more than 3 years and still has not got him), his moral standings (he allows a traitor in the whitehouse, the Haliburton deal is showing to be a farce from above, etc...) or his ability to stop possible attacks on America in the future (North Korea now has a missle that can hit the east coast, and thought to have nukes; Iran will shortly have nukes with missle that can hit europe).

    It will be because he is able to cause fear-mongering amongst normal Americans.

    But you are right, he may be elected. But so may Kerry, which is unusual to have a president knocked out of office.
