  1. Re:Creationism on Universe 250+ Times Bigger Than What Is Observable · · Score: 1

    Man was created in God's image, so if they can't comprehend something obviously God can't do it.

    Expanding universe beyond comprehension in size, stars and planets too numerous to count, nah, since those concepts make our heads hurt and make us feel insignificant he's only interested in our planet and everything else is just props for the stage.

    The "semi-automatic is a scare word and we want to keep it like that" nutter mods are out and about.

    Semi-automatic is soooo much more dangerous than those double action revolvers.

    FYI: semi-automatic: you pull the trigger, it fires once and can fire again when the trigger is pulled again until the ammo runs out.

    Double action: you pull the trigger, it cocks the hammer, rotates the cylinder, releases the hammer, and fires once and can fire again when the trigger is pulled until the ammo runs out.

    Effective difference: ammo capacity.

    A .22 semi-automatic is not more dangerous than a double action .454 revolver. Please stop using semi-automatic as a scare word.

    If the argument is a "for all" or "there exists no" case a single contradicting example is all you need to prove them wrong.

    One lane roads don't sound like a very good idea. Though after all the fatalities I suppose it would reduce wear and tear on the road.

    Mom intuition (momtuition?) has proven highly educated and trained doctors wrong tens of times (out of how many billion cases, hard to know, CNN doesn't seem to hype those stories) so obviously moms can never be wrong.

    If you pay for a 24/7/365.25 768k line, that's what you'll get. If you pay for an "up to" 768k line and then complain about not always getting 768k you should have ponied up for the dedicated line.
