I've wondered if we made a sort of pyramid wage scheme if that would work. Basically, something like you can only make ten percent more than the person directly below you. Then, guys at the top would be raising the salary of those on the bottom to keep their salaries. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using...

ITL, my mistake. I took your comment above my post to mean that no other presidential candidate had released records before becoming president. I'm on my tablet, and can't do my own homework in this area. I do agree that releasing his tax records would give him credibility and an appearance of...

ITL, as much as I dislike Smyth's aggressive posting style, he does have a point here. Why should the public expect a presidential candidate to release his tax records when it has never happened before? As near as I can tell, there's no precedent for it. Once, he's in office, then there's a...

Firstly, let me say that I am enjoying this conversation. It really feels more like a dialogue and less like an argument than some conversations I've had in the past. I truly enjoy listening to other people's opinions, as long as we can maintain an air of respect, which I feel we have so far...

I'm on my way to bed and on my tablet, but I'd like to continue this discussion later. For now, I'm still an undergrad. I medically retired from the army in late 2014, and began attending the university of Arkansas at little Rock. I'm a dual major in Physics and Math with a minor in secondary...

I am only going to respond to one part of your post, because that's all I have time for right now. I will preface my post by saying that I am a proponent of the "Apparent Age Theory". In my curiosity about the colonization of Mars, I was trying to formulate how many plants would be needed to...

You're mistaken. I was talking about the video in the post I quoted. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

I just watched that while video. That was a textbook case where they handled everything right. There's no case there. It was perfect. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

If she did try and sue, then President Obama could be sued for all the speeches he's plagiarized. Seriously, look it up. It's astounding how much he's stolen almost word for word from other people. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

I'm not sure where you got your numbers (although I found a near duplicate post on www.nakedscience.com forums). First thing I have to discuss is you keep saying phrases like "whole universe" when all these numbers come from the "observable" universe. Even the Wikipedia article that cites...

I didn't realize I had typed that. I meant to say anywhere in an infinite number of particles in the universe. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

And the resort to ad hominem. If you can't try to debate the facts, then please refrain from the debate. This was meant to be a discussion on the improbability versus the impossibility of evolution via the argument of mathematics. Yet, instead of coming to the table with a discussion, you open...

Again, you wish to point out something you believe is extra, rather than just say a blanket statement? It's not when the whole argument hangs in that balance. Essentially zero is not zero. And so now I'm dishonest by pointing out the flaw of an argument that makes our position weak? Again...

I want to amend something I said in my previous posts. Technically speaking, the odds would never arrive at 100%. Because (x-y)/x will always be less than 1, assuming that y is positive and smaller than x. (In our case of the marbles above, x=30 and y=29 (the odds of it not happening)). However...

Exactly. But, not just the known universe, anywhere in an infinite number of universes. And, any number multiplied by infinity is still going to equal infinity. I have to correct you here. Firstly, the number you are attempting to cite isn't atoms. It's particles. Secondly, it's not the...

Great way to start a discussion. But I'll ignore the rudeness and attempt to respond as if you didn't start out with an insult. Kindly show me what that is. Ok. Taken from: http://pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/ArticleLanding/2014/OB/c4ob01168f#!divAbstract Simply put, we haven't seen it happen in...

One thing that we need to keep in mind, is that the "victim" (I used quotes because we don't know yet if he was a victim, or if it was justified) is not on trial here. As sad as it is, what is done is done. The police officer will likely be on trial, and those on trial are to be presumed...

It's a sad state all around. Obviously, the video starts after he has been shot; so now we have a he said/she said situation. The girlfriend says that he was reaching for his information that the officer requested, while in the video the officer says, "I told him not to reach for it". Does...

You know, one thing the devil does well is manipulate people. He's also pretty good at allowing people in slavery to him feel free. Is this praising the devil? I don't think so. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk
