Consciousness is awareness of existence; it is not an existent itself. Therefore existence must come before consciousness. If a tree falls in a forest with no one there to hear it, does it make a sound? Yes. What is tree before we call it a tree? A living organism that uses photosynthesis to convert sunlight into energy. What is fall, before we call it fall? Gravity winning a tugawar contest. What is so

Everything you mentioned is a level of torture. Not that I have problem with any of it but it’s still torture. Thing is none of these mild torture methods work, this has been proven. Subjects simple tolerate it for a while then fain a convincing “I can’t take it anymore”, then give false information. It’s a useless practice that helps their propaganda effort more than it yields any useful intel for us. The only forms of torture tha
You can go there in the winter and have a nice sunny 72 but with the colder surf temp it can get uncomfortable cold on the beach fast, (for a Floridian anyways). We still had a 85 surf temp and a strong sun but as soon as it got a little to warm you would get this cool blast of air in the upper 60’s lower 70’s. If I had complete control over the whether with a remote thermostat I couldn’t have done it better.
Long key state park. It's a nice campground, the only downside is where the campsites are on the island you can piratically through a rock from one side to the other, and overseas hwy runs right down the middle so there is some traffic noise. It's really not that noticeable and there's very little traffic at night.
My girlfriend and I set out Saturday mourning to spend the weekend at a campground in the middle keys. On the way down we stopped at the dolphin institute in Key Largo and played with them for a few hours. Amazing creature dolphins, they accept you into their world with complete trust and genuine interest. I use to live right down the canal from the institute and coul
Yes all this is nice but I desperately need one feature, and that feature would be an in game clock. Or better yet, an in game timer that shuts down the game at a predetermined time. It doesn’t even ask just shuts the fucking game down and refuses to start again for at least an hour. I need my rest please.
Instead of a watch list just list all the articles you reply to. List them in descending order with the number of replies and the date of the last reply listed next to the linked article.

I didn’t know. Come to think of I was in the checkout line at Walmart the other day and there was this guy wearing a hand painted wife beater t-shirt that said “ God Hates Faqs”. I don’t know if he meant fags or facts but anyways when he bent down to this woman infant and said “guchiguchigoo”, I noticed he was drooling. I thought it was just a paralyzed lip from years of tobacco abuse but now I wonder.
So what happened with the princess? Did she forgive you running out on her and making peace with those nasty Drengin? I actually met her once. It was at the galactic conference hosted by the Torians and she was not happy. She looks constipated when she’s angry but she cheered up when the vote turned back in her favor, then she graced us with her smile again. Have you seen the Torian women? Yikes! I couldn’t wait to get home.
There is a technology that may help. It is only a myth to the rest of the galaxy, but the Terrans, while on an archeological dig in the Hemorrhoid system discovered an artifact. This artifact is theorized to be a time device capable of short jumps back in time. It hasn’t been tested yet but if successful it should give you the time you need to better prepare for the unprovoked Drengin attack on your loves home world.
I did the same thing for a decade, alcohol was the reason I broke down every time. I had to give up drinking too; if I drink I’m going to smoke.
Pretty cute, I like how the picture seems to show three distinct personalities. From left to right; “wait I’ll handle this”, “just don’t let him take my banana”, “I don’t think he knows what he’s doing”.
Yea this is more human nature than bad parenting. If you through one toy between two toddlers, you’ll soon have one crying toddler, life teaches this very early on and even the best parent is not going to be able to unlearn this in their child. If you teach a child the concept of heaven and hell, it will be used in their struggle to come out on top in social situations no matter how much you tell them were all equal.
if this period of global warming is a natural one, and we somehow effect a climate change to stop or reverse it, then what happens when the earth goes through another period of global cooling (which some climatologist claim will happen in about 15 years)? Instead of having cold winters, we might have cold summers as well! </
I’ve never really understood the mindset of someone who when faced with the evidence that modern science presents us can still remain a young earth fundamentalist. I now understand, you simple don’t allow yourself to be faced with it. You ignore anything contrary to what you believe. I guess accepting everything on faith is what it takes. <TD class="m
That's atheistic science at work No that’s Atheist selectively using science to prove what they believe, sound familiar? There is no connection between science and atheism. Scientists come from all different faiths. All the links I provided you were a Christian perspective of science showing that they’r
Since the source of all knowledge is God, I agree the explosion of scientific knowledge will grow. As science develops and our knowledge of it, I think that will turn the tide on atheistic science and that will soon reach it's twilight. The future belongs to those who can reconcile God with science. Evidently from your statement,
After Scripture and faith comes reason which tells me the time frame is short, say 6,000-10,000 years, and not millions of years. A prerequisite for being a “young earther” is you have to believe that the natural laws and everything we can observe are simple an illusion. The only use they have for scien
If a brand new Hep C drug came out that they needed volunteers to try it out on, yes I would. I take you haven’t had any luck with the combo therapy. I had to do 60 weeks but it’s been 4 years still no sign of it in my blood. My immune system is still revved up. I haven’t had so much
When you think you already know everything that matters, you no longer question anything. Truth is if it weren’t for secularists this country would be worse off than the Middle East. We don’t have money buried everywhere. Their natural wealth is allowed them to stay in ignorance for over a thousand years and to not seek anything other than their religion. The only use they have for technology is to become better warriors. Over 44% of this cou
Yea I’m not buying it, at least not as far as your better half. I’ve seen her show genuine concern for her fellow humans here many times, and she’s also had a consistent pro-life stance. Why would someone who longs for the death of all humanity give a shit if another one wasn't brought into the world? If memory serves you’ve expressed a pro-life stance as well so no I’m not buying it with you either, I think you two are playing a li
There's a patch for Vista32 and you can turn the page file off in XP32 to see all 4gb. It's strictly a 32bit OS limitation its got nothing to do with the chipset as long as the cpu is 64bit that is.
I have the E6400 at the stock 2.13ghz with an 8800GTS 640mb and it’s plenty for the latest games, and you could use the extra money for a better video card. The newer cards are handling more of the processing in games now anyways. If you feel you need faster then I would go with the quad core, I wouldn’t buy a dual core any faster than the E6400 which will OC to 3.0ghz no problem if you beef up cooling. The most bang for buck I think is the 88
