Would you say that same rule applies to say, the culture of China’s one child policy of the past?

Is that an evolutionary selection pressure?  What trait would be selected for?  Having one child?  I’m sure that Chinese parents still are capable of having more than one child.

For certain, but it questions whether we can remove the source of life or a creator out of the picture. What blows life into inanimate star stuff?

Claiming it is a god that creates life is an argument from ignorance. Claiming to know that a particular god that you have a personal relationship with is beyond the bounds of reason.

So can we remove…[Read more]

Michael, there are better-produced videos “proving” that the Earth is flat. Medical science tells us that generally the taller people get the more fragile they are. You know, the same is true when it comes to giantism in dogs, Irish wolfhounds live about 8 or 10 years while a Yorkshire terrier can live to 16 or 18 years.

Anyway, I’m still not…[Read more]

Michael, Snopes rated your giant coverup conspiracy “Satire.” Why are you bringing it up as supporting your case?

I already said that the Smithsonian allegation was false but their actions give us no reason not to believe the story in    a previous post.

Michael, giants are very unhealthy people with a lot of difficulties in life. They don’t live very long and, The Bible to the contrary, wouldn’t make very good warriors. Educate yourself. Why don’t we grow to be 10 feet tall? How tall can a human grow?

There were well proportioned mighty giants in the past. Watch the first video…

I don’t mean “entangled” in its quantum context. Should I say “intertwined”, or something else

Yeah, “entangled” just confuses things.

I wouldn’t call the process a “natural” selection process; it would happen because humans have usurped the natural selection process that’s been natural law for billions of years.

There is only natural and supernatural. “Unnatural” is a human linguistic invention. Anything humans can do is ipso facto natural in the sense of happ…[Read more]

Surely it’s all about selection pressures.

OK, but I’m differentiating between natural and artificial selection processes. Human intelligence is largely selected for, yes, but so have been the “terrible angels of our nature”, even if they seem to be mostly in our past. I like that we’re generally more humanitarian these d…[Read more]

[I’ve merged the two topics having the same title and theme into one topic. That’s why some posts say that I’ve modified them, although I did not actually modify any individual posts. All posts are still sorted by time, just intermingled.]

Surely it’s all about selection pressures.  It all depends on what makes people differentially reproduce.  So if some people can’t fit into a culture, it means that they are less likely to be mated with and therefore less likely to pass on their genes.

Have you considered that the reason his ratings are so low is that PEOPLE ARE TIRED OF HIS BULLSHIT? including his name-calling and attacks?

People who already thought he was a dumb ass are tired of his bullshit and a few people who voted for him have swayed the other direction… But there are several people that will still vote for him b…[Read more]

By making things worse, he may just be hurting himself.

I told you – he’s going to lie steal and cheat now more than ever – unabashedly And unashamedly….And most likely get away with it.
