I assumed so but I still find this thread to be rather ridiculous.

and since whirley is just oh-so-interested in my views (which i already stated in a duplicate thread) here it is:

i think its possible that there is a higher form of intelligence which set the universe in motion, be it 'god' or whatever. but the idea that there is an invisible man who sits in the clouds and dictates every animal made is a joke.

ID seems to only thrive on exploiting the many mysteries, holes, and unanswered questions in evolution, and saying "god did that, probably...since you cant prove otherwise yet".

no study, no theory, just the endless pursuit for flaws in a theory and then the assumption that because of those flaws--only expected since the evidence is so scarce--then its all rubish and it must have been god.

So your kind of sitting on the fence 🙂 OK I didn't expect any Science from you.

not at all I am contributing to a thread in the same way I have since last night and have show you no aggression at all - Please don't discuss my shit or my prick again.

personally I believe evolution to be the most likely cause... I am willing to admit that some of it needs tweaking... The biggest factor for me is DNA... if good design was the cause of me being here then wouldn't me DNA be shorter and more individual compared to other animals?

Have you read the Blind Watchmaker or River out of Eden by Dawkins? You'd enjoy them if you haven't - Your College will have lots of copies of both and they kind of dealswith the lack of need for God once the ball has been set rolling. Excellent introduction to mod genetics.

give it a few years and I will pick it back up... I'm currently doing electronics and computing at university... I don't wana have too many random topics in ma head!

Good choices - River out of Eden is only one nights read though really - worth a go if your bored sometime.

Ive got a few books to get through before my reading list comes down! currently I got java, c# and embedded systems to go through!

Shame really Whob didn't get back to me with his beliefs in a nutshell... I was interested to hear them...

I have little computer expertise I have to admit - As your doing electronics you must be pretty into uncertainty - have you read the Quantum dot its an excellent popularist explanation of how the silicon chip works.

I know alot about how the basics of a chip works but my sector is more todo with programing 8051's and the like... The uni teaches 4 different courses... Embedded systems/Medical electronics/network systems/chip design.. I do embedded systems. The area your talking about falls under chip design and I don't really know alot about it... Though I have an understanding in it, I'm no expert...

OK - my brother is european database department manager for a large banking house. He coins it in, you can if you work hard and have the breaks make excellent money in computers.

thats what I'm hoping for! my area isn't that much harder then normal programming... But people think it is.. So they pull some right funny faces when you try to explain even the most basic design.. they think its too hard to learn so they don't try to listen...

I wish you the best of luck with that.

Okay moving on..PVS..do you want to actually attempt to refute any points..or are you just going to continue your role as forum "hack" throughout this thread?

I'm in my second year in college, thanks. And I think that my ACT, SAT and AP scores, on top of the fact that as of yet I've been able to test out of every single English course I've supposed to have taken, show that my English skills are fine, at the very least.

my sat score was horrible.
not that i studied...or refrained from getting wasted and not
getting much sleep the night before. of coarse, i didnt take it
seriously, and at this point im glad i didnt.

😂 I was actually disappointed in mine. Which caused several of my friends to want to kill me....but not the point. Had it not been the day after the last day of school, I probably would have done better....because who really wants to get up at 6:30 am to take a 3+ hour test the day after the last day of schoo?

In the UK we don't have SATS although we do have point score totals to go to University, I got a job and did my "A levels" like passing high school in the evening as my parents are not wealthy. Then worked my way through Uni and post grad courses.

In England in those days only richer people tended to go to Uni, its changed a bit now though.
