Their are three reasons why I hated the Mac. A one button mouse, no command shell, and all the icons were stuck to the right part of the screen. They added a command shell, now all they have to do is push the icons to the left part of the screen and add a few buttons to the mouse. While I'm at it, I would like to use my favorite Windows Manager, IceWM. I could care less about eye candy.
I never said it was my argument. I agree with you on everything except your premise on time, time does not exist because of the fact this it is only capable of being an Independent Variable. If time existed, it could be used as an dependent variable, since its not(Einstein tried to prove it was with E=mc^2 and as you approach the speed of light, time slows down), it can't possibly exist as anything but a tool to calculate other things.
I'm mostly a self-taught programmer with a degree in Computer Science. If it wasn't for open source, it would probably using Goto statements and programming in BASIC. I learned how to program by reading books, looking at other peoples source code, and internal logic of my Brilliant mind. I don't think OSS is the New Jerusalem, more like a modern day Avalon, but its certainly changed the world of nerds.
Oh great gods of science, how do I pray to thee. Please accept this sacrifice of Nintendo and 1927 Radio so that I live without fear of your rath. Thank you gods of science, I shall now leave you in peace.
You have to believe that god exists in order to believe that the holy bible is correct which states that god exists(and Vice Versa).
St. Aquinas thidr way in his "Five Ways":
P1. We find in nature things that are possible to be and not to be.
P2. It is impossible for these always to exist for that which can not be at some time is not.
P3. If everything can not-be, then at one time there was nothing in existence
P4. Nothing comes from nothing
C. There must be a necessary being, "This all men speak of as God"
This basically your arguement on your whole definition of evolution. Unfortunately, this is also assuming that God is of first existence and an Atheist wouldn't even understand the argument because they would have to believe in God's existence to be able to believe in the word of God.

"The idea that Man and all his wonderful gifts, for art, literature and science is descended from
some kind of faeces-flinging monkey is an insult."
Like it or not, it's true.
"Not only to Christians, but also to Jews, Muslims, Bhuddists, Hindus, Scientologists and many other religions that do not subscribe to the orthodox view of science." Most of them use text books that have been copied, passed, translated, memorized, and mutated over several hundred generations. Up until the Gutenberg Bible, none of these had a chance of carrying on without mutation, "The evolution of the bible" Which one are you going to trust?
"The facts speak for themselves. These 'scientists' are no better (and in some cases worse than) the palm-readers at a fairground or the astronomers 'predicting the future' by the position of the planets." They call them preachers for a reason, they speak on Faith without facts.
So tell me again why a Jack rabbit looks like Peter Cottontail when they grew up in two completely different environments. Let me see. Evolution? Nah, God waved his magic hand and all of a sudden, two non-related species look almost exactly the same.
What kind of question is that? The first "flying" animals glided using excess skin over their arms, these were predominately small animals. Over several million years, their bones slowly hollowed(less weight), their arms got longer(so they could glide farther) and those with the right amount of excess skin could glide farther and get away from the enemy faster. Eventually, they turned to wings. Eventually, they could fly. Basic concepts of evolution, small changes for the better over a set a generations is its basis.
Their is not a single loop hole in Human Evolution. If one wanted to and had infinite amount of times on their hands, they could trace every single evolution step from modern man to the first Amino Acids that appeared on Earth Billions of years ago. What makes humans so special? Except our brains, we are no more advanced then a crocodile or an alligator. They all have the same purpose, survival of the fittest. The same questions can be answered any other organism on the planet as they can be answered about us. We're just another organism in the evolution chain.
Going against the giants Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft, did anybody really think that they have a real chance? I'm not a console gamer but I would've loved to see them excel. The same result would probably still occurred(considering that they don't get the funding) even if the economy didn't go belly up. Microsoft would've just lowered their prices of the X-Box when they release it, like John D. Rockefellar did with his gas station prices in a two gas station town, until the competitions gone(so he could jack up the prices to the profit maximizing point.) History would've just repeated itself again.
Their is nothing wrong with classic gaming. I still have my 486 in my attic somewhere and it could still play doom(not very well until I upgraded from 4 to 8 megs of ram). My point is, if you want to play classic games, buy a laptop and emulate the bastards. Why do we need a two inch screen on a machine to do the exact same thing we could do in the late 80's and play the exact same games you could play at the same time? Unless your kid who makes less then $50 a month, this really doesn't make sense.
Advanced game boy describes game boy as being advanced and thus, an adjective. It can also mean "to advance" which would make it a verb. All in all, "Advanced Game Boy" correlates to the meaning of game boy has made an advance again. This is true because of the evolution of game boy b&w to color and then to this state.
The problem with the original gameboy is that it had terrible sound, used sprites for graphics, and you could barely see the screen if you were looking at at an angle. Now we will be able to play "Doom" wen it comes. Gee, we can play an 8 year old game on a 2 inch screen. I'm going to rush out and get one.
Its not just video games.

If we give the government an inch, they'll take the yard. The current ratings are good enough because they aren't government regulated and for the parents use. When they become mandatory, then we've lost the war. By the way, your children are not that much more likely to become killers and rapists unless they have an average or lower IQ.
Hawaii=Mountains with Volcanoes
West Virginia=Mountains with no Volcanoes
Do the math.
Which one would you trust with a multi-million dollar telescope?
Your telling me that you're going to use non-random inputs in some non-random formula to make a random number. This number would not be random, it could be predicted if one would follow every single possible path that led to the exact events and timing that led into the production of that number. This is extremely hard to predict but in no sense random.
The lava lamp is predictable on the sub-atomic level so your theory would be shot down. I wrote a random number generator in one of my Electrical Engineering classes using static from AM radio wave signal. This is still predictable if one really wants to get down to it but lacks predictability when dealing with higher level maths.
Things are not random at the quantum level. We have been able to prove that. The problem with the quantum level is that they fall below our significant digits and thus, we have a tendency to round it off and treat it as random. If you go down infinitely far, it is 100% predictable. The problem is, who really wants to go down that far to predict the exact number a person is going to pick from 1-10.
He has the right to say and do whatever the hell he wants to say, even offensive, as long as he doesn't use government in order to do that. He did not violate the principles basic rights and thus he did not wrong the principle.
