20 Million Year Old Spider Found
evil agent writes "BBC News is reporting that Paleontologist Dr. David Penny has found a spider, and two droplets of blood, perfectly perserved in amber. He was able to extract the blood and determine its age: 20 million years old. Since it is thought to be the first time that spider blood has been found perserved in amber, it is hoped that DNA could be extracted."
grow a cock you faggot fuck.
This joke was and old and unfunny the previous 10000 times it was posted when a science-related story came up. This "joke" is as lame as the "in soviet russia", "korea" and the other crap running around.
Mods, stop using your points to make fun of Bible-worshipping Christians here. It's tired, move on.
Sir,
You speak big words against God. You will give account for that after you die. In the mean time, during the time that you are alive here on earth, do read some evidence that unbelievers don't want to see, and 'scientific' (where's the missing link?) magazines will not print - too painful! Like most truth is.

I know that god put this spider in this amber just to fool us.
BS. The Lord God doesn't lie to believers. What really happened is that the Great Flood of 1656 (post creation) led to rapid preservation of things in an anaerobic environment.

No buddy,
... a wonderful thing.
... but research since has found people in the right part of Africa that acquired new unknown diseases in the right time period, with all the symptoms of AIDS. And there is a retro virus native to the monkeys in that area that are very closely related to the HIV virus.
The rumour is wrong.
AIDS was accidently created in africa in the 1950's by British scientists.
The scientists were helping the people of Africa by vaccinating them against polio.
BUT
The dumasses used the kidneys of local monkeys to grow the cultures of polio vaccine.
But the scientists didnt work under the same standards used in Europe and North America, so thousands of Africans were injected with a dirty mixture. Yes they were protected against polio, but they were exposed to viruses carried by the monkeys to which they had no immunity.
Yes, AIDS was 'discovered' in the 1980's
Of course the old British scientists deny it all, despite plenty of paperwork that still exists, and accounts from people who used to bring in the monkeys and work in the labs.

It's a testimony to the continuing influence of the US that people treat the 6000 year thing as a mainstream position.. it's a tiny minority outside the US (1% I'd guess.. seems to be near 100% of christians in the US.. didn't one state mandate teaching it as science? Scary stuff...).
The Flying Spagetti Monster has more credibility to it though (we *know* spagetti exists - what more proof do you need?)... IMO Christianity has a lot going for it, without the lunatic fringe screwing everything up.
