  Isnt it sad how right-wingers try to supress the truth to fit their own rediculous agenda? Evolution is happening and so is global warming, stop believing your own lies.

  The search of knowledge is an irrevocable hunger of mankind that should not diminish although this makes the dire thirst more the necessary, for teaching within the system of social understanding and development. And of course open disclosure of all applications of experimentations especially with events that could effect worldwide masses, ex..(Creation of antimatter).

  creationists are gonna have a hard time debunking this.. i think alot of heads in the red states are gonna explode real soon.

  and i just watched a national press club seminar the other day with anne coulture as she ragged on evolutionists and evolution itself as a lie and she offered her own proof to debunk the theory. it was priceless..

  she's gonna call this liberal pseudo science..

  cant wait...

  Our present population explosion is especially the result of improved sanitary conditions at childbirth and thereafter. In earlier centuries, many more children died before the age of three. The rate of world population growth has varied greatly throughout history as a result of such things as pestilences, famines, wars, and catastrophes (floods, volcanoes, earthquakes, and fires). But with all this in mind, estimates generally focus on 300 million as the population of the earth at the time of Christ. Based on small-sized families, from the time of the Flood (c. 2400 B.C.) to the time of Christ, the population by that time would have been about a quarter million people. If, in contrast, the human race had been on earth for one million years, as the evolutionists declare, even with a very low growth rate of 0.01 (1/100) percent annually, the resulting population by the time of Christ would be 2 x 1043 people (2 x 1043 is the numeral 2 followed by 43 zeros!). Hmm???

  SageParadox,

  I think that you are missing what is commonly referred to as the "spelling gene". : ) It is "conservative". By the way, 10 out of 10 people die...you had better know for sure what happens when you die because immediately after death, you will face a Just and Holy God. If you ever told a lie, used God's name in vain (blaspemy), stolen, or looked with lust, you will stand before Him guilty. Those are just 4 of the 10 commandments. The Bible says that all liars, thieves, adulterers, etc. will have their part in a lake of fire. There is a God. This world did not happen by accident. Listen to your conscience that God has given you. (Con "with" science "knowledge"). You have a chance to repent- turn from your sins, confess your guilt to God, and accept the payment for your sins, Jesus Christ. You will pass from death (being a captive to sin's penalty) into life (eternal life through Christ), and from darkness (spiritual) into light.

  weirdscience,

  I'm under the impression that you believe you know for sure what happens when you die. I would like to ask you what you think the consequences of your actions would be if you were wrong? If you consider God to be scientific truth, then what is wrong with studying the information avaiable. Science isn't choosing what is and isn't real, it is descriptive. So if you are correct, the information scientists discover will coincide with your religion. The evidence suggests there is no reason to believe a higher power created human life, so why is it such a suprise that so many people are starting to reject these ideas. It could be because we have such poor science education in the country, so the scientists are missing all the relevant information! Christians need to fund science to discover the truth! Since the consequences of being wrong are quite serious.

  Weirdscience,

  Your growth rate of 0.01 is believable, but even you must acknowledge that population dynamics are more complicated then simple growth rate calculations...

  Any percentage based growth rate is exponential in nature, and this may be true for a population starting out, but eventually environmental constraints (amount of food, space, scary animals etc) stop population growth. Migration and population of different areas may maintain this exponential growth for a while, but then keep in mind that the growth rate of 0.01 only applies to populations that are starting out, and not the entire population as a whole.

  Those populations which have "maxed out" their population limit for that area stop growing. Stop growing, that is, until they figure out food producing technologies like agriculture, which seems to have developed about 4000 bc.

  I don't think evolution and Christianity are incompatible, but it requires a more philosophical outlook than some people have.
