sheesh, don't be silly, everybody knows the fairys don't ride the unicorns! The unicorns are just the traveling nuclear waste refuel ships while the fairies distribute through their own wing power.
The trick is convincing the fairies that the Uranium is actually fairy dust. It's smooth sailing after that.
No, eons ago we didn't exist, therefore no problem.
You do realize that humans were not as numerous nor did they occupy the same geographic locations in the past as they do now right?
I have to ask because this site is very US centric, and they don't seem to do well with geography and/or earth timelines. (which will probably get me modded down even though both camps complain about the other)
We live in a western capitalistic world dominated by the next few fiscal quarters. It's a breeding ground for sociopaths and the mentally deficient dupes who follow them.
You are falling into the same trap as the AC you are arguing against.
Terrorism was born in the US. None of the 'terrorist' groups have ever stated that their purpose is to terrorize. If you think about it, that's about the stupidest purpose anybody could ever have. Nobody is going to die for that, yet US Kool-aid is just soooooo sweet.
Terrorism is a pure fabrication of the US govt and media. They have terrorized you so they could take away your freedom and you would be glad to give it. What those countries actually want is just to have the US stop fucking with them. Most USians don't know it, but those 'terrorists', they're actually fighting for your freedom as well.
I thought the terrorists were the ones actually terrorisizing the US population, i.e., the US government and US media. With their colour alerts and propaganda they were the only ones actually spreading FUD.
I also thought they got exactly what they wanted, i.e., more control over the population, more surveillance, and less freedom of the population.
You seemed to be confusing terrorists with the freedom fighters trying to prevent evil capitalism from encroaching on their territories.
Part of the problem stems from the fact that no real religion nowadays actual says 'a wizard did it'. Unfortunately, that's what happens to debate when you have fanatics on both sides that are ignorant of what the others believe and why. It's much easier to just remain ignorant and setup and burn strawmen continuously.
Good on you for at least being logical and being agnostic. Atheists stink of belief and/or stupidity just as much as the proselytizers.
So you're saying there's a link between the behaviour of neck beard troglodytes that seek to shelter themselves in rock/cement, aka mom's basement, and genes for intelligence?
What's more important. Being able to calculate the necessary force and trajectory to sink a 3 pointer, or actually shooting a three pointer?
Kinesthetic intelligence is more important than the crippled 'intelligent' people would like to believe as they sit praying for the singularity to save them from the inability to use their body properly.
Yet 'belief' in science is rampant. Specifically cross-disciplinary. I've found most scientists, while skeptical and critical of most everything in their field, are usually quite accomodating for outlandish theories in other disciplines.
Then there's the whole cheerleading squad of science fanbois, belief is their every breath. Interestingly, the religious nutters seem to be displacing them on slashdot.
If you had just a bit more intelligence you'd know that they branched out from just measuring logic, oh, a few decades ago?
Of course, what happens in academia and what happens in local practice is like the time traveling abilities of western pop music in Asia.
I'm sure you must have been aware of when the Emo's, who had put down their little black books long enough to socialize, realized they had some insight into human emotional behaviour and so they cried their way into a whole bunch of books on Emotional Intelligence.
No. Seriously, take a course. Coursera offers them all the time as well as other online sources. Stats are used everywhere so it's best to get a handle on the basics. It'll also help you understand the difference between statistically significant and of practical significance. A slashdot post is not going to enlighten you.

FTFY
Which might help if I was asking you. I'm asking for a citation to the contrary, or can you not follow a thread?
Fallacy of genus. Learn it, love it.
Citation? The US's revisionist history is well know, but I'd like to see some proof contrary to everything that's out there.
I wonder when the US will realize that it can actually survive without constantly needing a 'mortal enemy'.

What's wrong with you? Are you a paranoid jew?
Heart? Really? I'm guessing you aren't a USian or you might have said Pamela Anderson, but heart?
I was a little disappointed not getting to see apk's insult bot in action here.

Meanwhile, others are porting software all the time.
We can even call your state evil for the things it did to the environment, whole eco-systems wiped out.
Face it, you pour energy into evil systems all the time.
I'm pretty sure Gaia is begging for a little less of that 'intelligence'.

The tests we use for IQ are reliable and that's why we use them. The whole validity thing is just something lay people discuss.

We all know how finicky grandmas can get.
We thought you had been shanghai'd with the rest of the thinkers!

The sad thing is, that the mods can't recognise the difference.
Here's a hint, just go check out how long homo sapien sapiens have been around for. It takes a while to build culture.
