Well, I don't want to start an ordeal or sound condicending, so I won't go into the how's and why's and arguments (at least not in this thread), but the whole idea of evolution (as the current science world defines it) drives me absolutely nuts
I think evolution is a wonderful idea, and I think we should consider giving it a shot!Kind of like Ghandi's response when asked about his thought son Western Civilization. He said it was a good idea.Def

It makes no sense to me from any perspective; logical, scientific, or philosophic, and as such drives me nuts when it's presented as the case-closed truth.Edit: and it adds a special frustration when I am portrayed as an un-thinking, follow-the-leader moron for thinking it through myself. And trust me, my beliefs have gone through more than their share of questioning and doubt (from myself).
I'm a big beliver of alternative theory's too but then I'm a borderline anarchist anyway ;DI personnel belive that our developement was manipulated anyway (and no I do not consider myself a nutjob )

What ticks me off is that more people aren't just like me. If the whole world thought just like me and behaved just like me and had the same beliefs as me, then I would have a lot less problems.
There's quite a few things that annoy me.... crap drivers, no P's and Q's and telesales.Micky, if you get fed up with telesales theres always this video to show you how you could get your own back... never tried it myself but its soooo funny to watch
If I can climb onto my box, and rant, I regret the general loss of civility in today's society. I know every generation thinks the one that comes after is dreck, and the ones before it are golden, but it seems to me that the "me first" disease has taken over everywhere. If Civility keeps going as it is, you'll need an armored car to travel the roads, body armor to shop the stores and a thick hide and dulled senses to converse in open society. Just my opinion, but the poster did ask.Regards.
Don't tell me it was to be repaid over 100 years at 0% interest or would you get repaid in heaven for your act of generousityMe cynical never
