Please explain how to tell the difference between these "different modes of knowing and arriving at knowledge" and just completely making shit up out of your ass and calling that knowledge too. What's good for the goose would be good for the gander, except we know the gander exists (humans) yet there is still no evidence that the goose exists outside of the minds of those who claim to worship it.
Wrong moron. Faith is believing in something without having ANY evidence thereof. If you think people "believe" in science despite not having perfect knowledge and evidence of everything everywhere in the universe, then you're just playing word games and defining "faith" and "evidence" in your own terms so as to be completely useless. Saying that people have "faith" in science doesn't make it so, despite you trying to bring science down to the level of religion and consider them just as equally valid. Name a few technological advancements that have been created in this world by prayer rather than scientific method.
Did you really mean the importance of porn traffic or the prevalence of porn traffic? Two different things; we already know porn is pretty damn important. Uh, I mean studies show that porn is pretty damn important. After all, it helps pioneer new technologies!
Along that same note (pun intended), if you have a synthesizer capable of producing a typical square wave, hold down a B1 and hold the note with the sustain pedal so your hands aren't on the keys, and then slowly start turning up the volume. Do this at a gig and you'll drive your sound guy nuts if you cut it off before he can check the keyboard channel every time.
As Richard Dawkins says, sometimes the truth doesn't always lie somewhere in the middle. Sometimes, it's possible that one person is simply just wrong.
It's no problem for you to sell your piano w/ ivory keys domestically (I work for a piano retailer, we sell/repair/rebuild ivory key pianos all the time), however it is illegal to import or export any piano with ivory keys.
Piano keys are wood (spruce) with ivory or plastic keytops, not solid ivory or plastic. Some manufacturers today use a synthetic ivory compound that simulates many of the properties of ivory (slightly porous to absorb sweat and oil from the fingers). An interesting tidbit is that one manufacturer came up with a synthetic ivory solution that was so close to ivory, it actually turned yellow with age like the real thing except it did it much faster than real ivory. Whoops.
Like someone below said, I also hate playing on ivory keys because I just don't like the feel of it. I guess I'm just used to the plastic of modern pianos and digitals.
We have this quaint little example called "humans" that show that intelligence is possible, unless you know some reason that the laws of physics prohibits this from happening in a computer beyond just "we personal can't imagine it".
Concepts of "right" and "wrong" are not knowledge, but shared decisions that we make and are ingrained into us through experience with the world around us. One society's "right" may be another's "wrong". Only religion posits "universal" morals.
First, define child and if it's based on age, give reasons for the age you pick specifically. Also, define sexual innocence and why it's so important. The problem is with American society and it's obsession and fear of anything sexual for no reason other than outdated Christian the-body-is-evil mentality. I don't understand how preventing someone from seeing something by removing the choice gives people.... more freedom of choice? o.O My head a-splode.
Don't wanna see it? Change the channel. Don't ever wanna see it? Block the channel or just stop watching TV if it's so damaging. Oh, and don't ever let your kid out of the house. Way too dangerous.
When you redefine faith in the way you do, you make the word meaningless and then it's impossible to have a discussion when your definition of faith is the opposite of what most people mean by it. We don't have "faith" that gravity won't just stop or that you're a good person, because past experience is evidence of those things. With evidence, you don't need faith. That's one of my biggest problems listening to religion discourse, they attempt to redefine words until they're meaningless, which of course they do because then they can make them mean whatever they want and further their own agenda.

Say again? I'm sure some samurai/ninja would like to have a word with you on what their katana/tachi were made out of.

Muslim isn't a race.
Woosh.
Let me know if you're interested in selling that blowtorch...
For even more fun...
Not everyone thinks it's so definite that we will all die some day...

Just FYI: here in Louisiana we have parishes, not counties. ;)
Or get rid of the supernatural BS and actually research something useful. Science, FTW.
That evil EA, charging people for letting them have fun? How dare they! I bet they'll even want to charge for the actual Spore game too! Travesty!
Har har....

Soundtrack is done. Bow chicka wow wow!
It sure would make something hard I bet.
Just an aside, why the hell did you put "pr*n"?
Corrected.
Unfortunately, there are probably better explanations. And I say this as someone who loved the first one. This trilogy could have been so much better.
