    Evolution timeline extended 1.5 billion years

    There is a difference though. One is saying “we have evidence that points to this theory being most likely the correct one but we can’t prove it with absolute certainty yet and are still gathering more evidence.” The other says “we don’t know with absolute certainty so it must be God” Which one requires a greater degree of faith? Why, just because you don’t know, must the best answer be a god that we have absolutely no evidence for at all?
  2. The problem is the US budget has been unsustainable since 1980. Even under the best circumstances any revenue increase from tax cuts is not even close to fixing the spending that is going out. And I’ll say it again, until someone has the balls to cut Medicare (SS), defense or most of the rest of the federal government, they are just trying to score political points, not fix the problem. Until spending is fixed it won’t mean a damn thing.
  3. That argument has proven to be false. Since the GOP started that idea in the 80’, our national debt has been rising, uncontrolled, ever since. You can’t continue to spend like both parties have done and expect to balance the books. It hasn’t happened yet and won’t happen unless large spending cuts are made. If you look at the break down of the overall budget, the only places you can make a cut large enough to impact this is Medicare and defense. Newt (or any politician for that matter) can talk all the tax cuts they want but the only way to do it and not destroy the value of the dollar is to make massive spending cuts somewhere. Until they can point out where they can cut a huge portion of the budget out or a massive increase in revenue (cutting taxes has proven not to make up the loss in revenue) this is all just hot air.
  4. How does the government make up the lost tax revenue from this? You would almost certainly have to make cuts in defense and Medicare no? I agree with all the cuts but who gets to pay the piper on this? The seniors? The military? Are you just going to crush the middle class more? It’s great to talk about cutting taxes but the other end of this equation is a political death sentence.

    James Davis hype train

    He was injured and never came back into the game. He was grabbing his shoulder after a hit and looked like he was in a lot of pain. I haven’t heard anything official from the Browns since.

    I Just Bought A New Computer Today

    It’s actually a limit of the 32 bit OS and how much memory it can address (also limited by how much physical memory the motherboard will recognize). Vista 64 bit as well as Windows 7 64 bit (actually XP 64 bit as well) can handle at least 16 gb of RAM if your hardware can support it. If you haven’t seen Windows 7 I would highly recommend you check it out. It’s what Vista should have been and for a beta it's pretty tight right now. Much more refined than Vista was at this point. Also 1000gb = 1 terabyte
  13. Ah that's right Thor is the one I was thinking of. So semifinals are Apollo vs Vishnu and FSM vs Greg Oden? Seems like a shoe in for FSM.
  14. FSM is defiantly a fan favorite. The only question mark surrounding him is how durable is that noodley appendage? I think FSM has earned a first round bye. That's mind-blowing right there but does Zeus get Vishnu's intellect and experience or just the form of Vishnu? If the later, I'm still gona give a slight advantage to Vishnu. Now what about Oden vs Apollo? Oden for sure has the knockout power with that whole huge hammer with the thunder and all.
  15. I think Vishnu with eight arms can still take a lion. Now if Zeus goes, let say octopus or Kraken, then it's pretty even. In retrospect, Zeus has the quick knockout and can neutralize Vishnu's ground advantage, this match might be closer than I thought.
