SO basically this kid gets screwed up the ass in jail, literally because he modded an XBOX wow. What an asshole, soon he will be robbing liquor stores and selling crack. DOWN WITH THESE CRIMINALS.
Yes that was sarcasm.
Okay. I agree with all of you, but can some of you look at this scripture: Isaiah 40:22 "There is One who is dwelling above the circle of the earth..." Can you tell me how a Jewish bible prophet, knew in roughly 700 B.C.E that the earth was Round? ANd the Hebrew word that appears in that scripture, means SPHERE. Can you explain that to me, oh yeah Evolution probably told him.
17 What chance is there that the correct amino acids would come together to form a protein molecule? It could be likened to having a big, thoroughly mixed pile containing equal numbers of red beans and white beans. There are also over 100 different varieties of beans. Now, if you plunged a scoop into this pile, what do you think you would get? To get the beans that represent the basic components of a protein, you would have to scoop up only red ones--no white ones at all! Also, your scoop must contain only 20 varieties of the red beans, and each one must be in a specific, preassigned place in the scoop. In the world of protein, a single mistake in any one of these requirements would cause the protein that is produced to fail to function properly. Would any amount of stirring and scooping in our hypothetical bean pile have given the right combination? No. Then how would it have been possible in the hypothetical organic soup?
18 The proteins needed for life have very complex molecules. What is the chance of even a simple protein molecule forming at random in an organic soup? Evolutionists acknowledge it to be only one in 10113 (1 followed by 113 zeros). But any event that has one chance in just 1050 is dismissed by mathematicians as never happening. An idea of the odds, or probability, involved is seen in the fact that the number 10113 is larger than the estimated total number of all the atoms in the universe!
19 Some proteins serve as structural materials and others as enzymes. The latter speed up needed chemical reactions in the cell. Without such help, the cell would die. Not just a few, but 2,000 proteins serving as enzymes are needed for the cell's activity. What are the chances of obtaining all of these at random? One chance in 1040,000! "An outrageously small probability," Hoyle asserts, "that could not be faced even if the whole universe consisted of organic soup." He adds: "If one is not prejudiced either by social beliefs or by a scientific training into the conviction that life originated [spontaneously] on the Earth, this simple calculation wipes the idea entirely out of court."13
20 However, the chances actually are far fewer than this "outrageously small" figure indicates. There must be a membrane enclosing the cell. But this membrane is extremely complex, made up of protein, sugar and fat molecules. As evolutionist Leslie Orgel writes: "Modern cell membranes include channels and pumps which specifically control the influx and efflux of nutrients, waste products, metal ions and so on. These specialised channels involve highly specific proteins, molecules that could not have been present at the very beginning of the evolution of life."14
The Remarkable Genetic Code
21 More difficult to obtain than these are nucleotides, the structural units of DNA, which bears the genetic code. Five histones are involved in DNA (histones are thought to be involved in governing the activity of genes). The chance of forming even the simplest of these histones is said to be one in 20100--another huge number "larger than the total of all the atoms in all the stars and galaxies visible in the largest astronomical telescopes."15
22 Yet greater difficulties for evolutionary theory involve the origin of the complete genetic code--a requirement for cell reproduction. The old puzzle of 'the chicken or the egg' rears its head relative to proteins and DNA. Hitching says: "Proteins depend on DNA for their formation. But DNA cannot form without pre-existing protein."16 This leaves the paradox Dickerson raises: "Which came first," the protein or the DNA? He asserts: "The answer must be, 'They developed in parallel.'"17 In effect, he is saying that 'the chicken' and 'the egg' must have evolved simultaneously, neither one coming from the other. Does this strike you as reasonable? A science writer sums it up: "The origin of the genetic code poses a massive chicken-and-egg problem that remains, at present, completely scrambled."18
Funding or not, this means many people's lives. This is sick. Really is sick. The love of money is the root of all sort of injurious things, and this is one of them. So because they are not going to make millions off of this job, let's not care?
Just so mad I can't think of a sound argument.
To tell you the truth, College sucks as much as High school, nothing ever changes. Their will always be immature people, and stuck up pricks, and jerks. It is as simple as that.

Star Trek in my eyes is a done deal. It's just too much, it's time for it to go to rest.
