Edward Snowden Nominated For Nobel Peace Prize

An anonymous reader writes "A Swedish professor of sociology has nominated Snowden for the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize. Giving him the prize would also 'save the Nobel Peace Prize from the disrepute that incurred by the hasty and ill-conceived decision to award U.S. President Barack Obama' the prize, according to professor Stefan Svallfors. He notes ultimately that at great personal cost, 'Edward Snowden has helped to make the world a little bit better and safer.'"

    When proof of something is held before us, we do not stick our fingers in our ears and chant "I can't hear you" repeatedly because it might disagree with my personal belief system.

    Cool. Go to this site and check out all the scientific evidence. Come back when you have finished reading all the repeatable verifiable science that disproves evolution or gives evidence for a young earth. When you are finished, come back and have a civil discussion with us about the evidence that you so readily accept.

    Remember, you're not going to stick your fingers in your ears or reject it out-of-hand because it disagrees with your personal belief system.
