I love this show! I also like the NPR planet money podcast.

I'm a big fan of Girl Talk. It is the prefect music for ADD kids like me. You only get about 30 seconds of a song.

OMG, You and the other crazy's are the only ones that care about your "original subject". Like others have said you're not changing anyone's vote. You're just making your side look insane. The rest of us can see that the Ayers connection doesn't really matter. The Annenberg Challenge board weren't planting bombs they were trying to fix our country's messed up education system. It was a bipartisan organization: The best part of this is that no one on the right seems to care that Todd Palin apparently was and still maybe a secessionist. Now, I don't give two shits about that. I have better reasons to not vote for Palin (her thinking the earth is 6000 years old, among other things) But the fact that, her husband is a secessionist seems like something the "America, love it or leave it" crowd might want to take a look at.

Your whole argument relies on the claim that there are axioms in science that can't be proven. Your parallel lines example (that can't be proven) can be proven with a proof by construction and Kallend gave you a link that proves the 180 degrees rules. Where are these magical axioms that all of math and science are built on?

Show me an axiom and I will show you something that is testable, verifiable, and reproducible. God is not. What does secularism do to those that challenge it? What does communism do to those that challenge it? What does a police state do to those who challenge it? Exactly what Socrates said the cave dweller would do to those who challenged his belief of reality. Read Plato's Republic. I'm not going to defend commies or police states but just because they do bad things does not make it okay for the "righteous" Christians to do equally bad things. Also, When is that last time a bunch of scientists got together and burned someone at the stake? Yes, by guys like Thomas Aquinas. Even the religious zealot Isaac Newton. So because there were some Christian scientists, all scientific advancement is due to Christianity? Newton's scientific advancements were due to his embracing logic and reason not due to his embracing the bible. Axioms are dogma, too. Axioms are the building blocks of reason that cannot be proven any more that the existence of God can be proven. Get past your dogma and see it what it really is. A dogma. I simply choose to belive the scientific dogma, but I also get to the threshhold questions. Science and these phantom axioms == testable, verifiable and reproducible God != testable, verifiable and reproducible
-
It isn't assumed. You can verify Euclid with a proof by construction, if you like. Good science (especially math) is testable, verifiable and reproducible. God is not. You can't point to some small part of science and say "see they aren't 100% sure on this one point, therefore all of science is assumptions". Dark Matter an educated guess at how the universe works. It is not a dogma, if a better explanation comes along the theory will be changed. If you have a better explanation of why the universe is expanding I'm sure the physics community would love to here it.
-
Please show us these "records" and then we can talk more. Also just because science can't explain everything doesn't mean that god exists. Finally, It seems to me that god has this great ability to heal things that are hard to test and verify. Why hasn't god caused someones arm or leg to grow back? Further reading:http://whywontgodhealamputees.com/ This statement exhibits a fundamental misunderstanding of the goals of science and the scientific method. If some new evidence is found that proves the theory of evolution false, a new theory that uses the new evidence will be created.

You should check out proofs by construction.

Here is the full video of the incident: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyvrqcxNIFs The part at the end where the student asks officer dickface for his badge number and the asshat says something like get away or I'll tase you too is really disturbing.

Man I miss this show. I don't know if I have a favorite quote but I do love the hero of canton song. Here is the chorus: "The man they call Jayne He robbed from the rich and he gave to the poor Stood up to the Man and he gave him what for Our love for him now ain't hard to explain The Hero of Canton, the man they call Jayne"

Some people(Shell) are working on more environmentally friendly ways to extract and refine oil shale;I wouldn't completely write it off yet. If we find a way to use oil shale it will only prolong our demise but hey it might mean cheap jumps for the rest of our life time.
