Can't have it both ways? Robots.txt is quite versatile, iirc you could just disallow everything except the big searchengines.. Unless the other search engines start using the same names, but I suppose that could really be illegal.
This page is really usefull, searches on lots of sites for the cheapest place to buy a book. Gives lots of alternatives to amazon: http://www.snmputils.com/booksearch/
I admit, it could have been put in a more subtle way, but it's a normal biological phrase. What makes people so special? Not much to make a fuss about imho.
If there is a god, and he does think that, why doesn't he give us a signal of it? Because without some divine signal, we could just as well be scammed by a bunch of con-artists. If he really wants us to do this, why doesn't he do all the special effects stuff.
(And don't say I should read the bible, that it speaks of such miracles. Ever notice how they are all from so long ago that there is NO chance of finding out what really happend).
Yes, I'm perfectly willing to accept that I'm just a very big bacteria. You can't disprove there's a big invisible turkey hovering above your computer right now, but does that make you worship it? Why not?
Ehm, hate to burst your bubble, but I think that was some guy they called jesus.... (Not that I'm christian or anything else religious, but it doesn't hurt to get the 'facts' right). Unless you think jesus was god undercover?:-)

I've been thinking about it, and all I can honestly think of is keeping libraries containing very biased books with money conned from the peasants. Care to enlighten us with other examples?
-Sensing (must be a better word for it, can't think of it now) -growth -reacting -development -reproduction -absorbing nutrients -putting out the garbage (bad translation, but you know what I mean: ability to kick stuff it doesn't like in its body out of his body (digested food remains etc))
I can't think (/have never heard of) the other one.
(Just to keep things clear, I think life doesn't exist as anything other than a couple of chemicals, and there is no precise border when something is life).
I'm quite opposed to animal experiments, but let's face it: We kill animals in labs all the time. Does the fact that we created it mean that we suddenly can't kill it anymore?
I'd love to kick the crutches your reasoning is resting on, but first, could you define soul as you see it? What do you believe there is more to a human, except for a lot of chemicals?
God can't have created the universe. Isn't the universe defined as a class containing everything that exists? So god is a member of the class, thus he can't have created it, because to create something I assume you need to exist.
Why does god want our love? (Hmmm, ST:TOS flashback) I see no use for loving god, so if god really wants what is best for me, wouldn't he just want me to be happy, instead of wanting me to love him. (And for that matter, why would he want me to sit in a big building every sunday singing songs that are mostly very boring musically, and sermons that are not the most enjoyable thing either?).
Why? It's a statistical fact that the southern usa has a very high percentage of religious people, and thus logical that if their population increases, there would be more religious people, since religion allways always comes from the parent(s) being religious.
"In itself it's an interesting piece of scientific research. But it depends on your motivation. If you are trying to prove the non-existence of God that's one thing, but if you are just carrying out an experiment that is quite another.
What is this?????
What other reason is there for a religious group for dissallowing attempts to prove the religion is flawed? If the religion is in fact correct, there is no need to worry about people trying to prove otherwise. However, if the religion is indeed flawed, they're all better of knowing it. Unless the religious leaders have something to hide....

Not quite as simple as that... (Sorry for all you patenters:-) ). The signature is embedded in the image itself, through 'random' noise. Definately fun stuff, untill some big co's heard of it.

Ehm I think certainly the vanilla pgp is safe, and probably all the other pgps to... See the statement that is linked in the story.

Weehhoo, repost fiesta!
Here is a great site, you give it the ISBN# and it says where the book is cheapest. http://www.snmputils.com/booksearch/

Your right. However, this kind of discussion never hurts.

They just said that WE shouldn't. It said nothing about the bacteria having other gods... :-)

The ones I've learnt in biology are:
-Sensing (must be a better word for it, can't think of it now)
-growth
-reacting
-development
-reproduction
-absorbing nutrients
-putting out the garbage (bad translation, but you know what I mean: ability to kick stuff it doesn't like in its body out of his body (digested food remains etc))

If he wants us to be happy, why is there war?
Or isn't us being happy what he wants?
