Is it just me, why did he ask him about the Michael Jackson case it's a completely different situation it wasn't assisted suicide I'm so tired of the mainstream news
He is brilliant. Reall knows what he's talking about, and has a such a simple answer for huge questions that I wouldn't even be able to begin explaining. RIP, you were truly great.
I love Kevorkian's attitude, honest and straight to the point. People may agree or not, but one thing is true; Kevorkian did what many doctors would not do.
Okay, I'll bite on this bandwagon. I admire. Dr. K. I have seen more than a few people die horrible deaths of person who knew they were dying, didn't want to live and persons confronted with health issues which if unabated would have scarred the family. Yet, our Government took away Dr. License, put him in prison. They are now using his technology as "humane forms of death for inmates on Death Row. Kudos to Dr. K. and his work. Death with Dignity, yeah, for Death Row Inmates-Hang them.
If people actually read about this man, you would know that over 60% of his patients were not even terminally ill or even complained about pain. Also the majority of his patients were women. One of the women had just finished playing a tennis game w/ her son, and went in to be killed. He didn't offer counseling before providing death. There is no such thing as "death w/ or w/ out dignity," no need to make it sound pretty, death is death, it is what it is.
Someone can make a career in lying and stealing from the public and get away with it. Meanwhile they're putting people in jail that haven't done anything wrong.
what the fuck is wrong with our legal system. god fucking damnit. we let that casey bitch get free, and oj get free. and we put this poor man in jail for helping people do what they believe they want to.
That's okay.I'm for states' rights regarding abortion.Not to mention I don't like the federal government forcing things on the states that the people don't want.
Put simply, I hope that all the people, who are against Dr. Kavorkian and his views on ending suffering in a humanly fashion, with dignity. I hope these people who put Dr. Kavorkian in jail, come to a point in their life, where they themselves are in so much pain, that they would be SCREAMING FOR DR. KAVORKIAN TO PUT THEM OUT OF THEIR MISERY. Then and only then, they will comprehend what Dr. Kavorkian was trying to accomplish.
@reachall Then and only then, they will comprehend what Dr. Kavorkian was trying to accomplish.i think the exact same thing!..... sadly your correct about that my friend. rip jack
I don't think its right for anyone to call assisted suicide in terminally ill patient a murder/kill left alone a crime. I honestly don't think that life is about prolonging suffering. Euthanasia, I think, was made to maximize happiness and allow autonomism.
I don't think he did anything wrong, the people ask him to do it , so he helped them. I think if someone is terminally ill you shouldn't tell them, so they think their fine. Just imagine, someone telling you, you have no more than 12 months to live. Every single second of the next 12 months will mentally kill you. I don't have a terminally illness, but just thinking about if i did, fuck i would just rather end it then and there."Dr. Death" did nothing wrong.
@imallpissedoff Yes it's called science a.k.a let's see what we have and contemplate on the answers, or get the most probable, logical answer from the experiments and observations. Not a "no answer" but "answer in progress" also called research.
My answer was a parody of Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Nordic, Greek, Egyptian paganism... a.k.a Let's parrot the things our grandfathers said, because as everybody knows, the older a thing is and the more people it has behind it the truer it is.
@imallpissedoff Evolution is a theory of ultimate success. Either you think that the scientific method of getting evidence and finding truth is wrong, or you think it's right. If science is the way to truth, the scientists will find it. And they have.
The creationists are idiots. They Believe in Christian fairy tales and expect to be taken seriously. First you look at evidence, then you find truth. Not the other way around. Ask Christian Biologist Francis Collins about Evolution.
@imallpissedoff You people don't have the mental capacity to understand science, and with that to understand evolution.
Evolution is change in time. Fossils prove it. Labs prove it. We find things exactly where Evol. says they would be.
No there are no atheists who say life couldn't arise by chance. Those are called creationists. And complexity doesn't mean "no abiogenesis"...that's a logical fallacy, which you keep making, because you are a scientific illiterate.
I know you must be correct about your religion being the truth because you spew so many insults.
Fossils don't support evolution.
Labs can't prove evolution.
You find many things in the strata that argue against evolution. Many fossils are out of place.
Sir Fredrick Hoyle, for one, has rejected evolution for, Panspermia. He did it because of the complexity and information discovered in the simplest living cells.
@imallpissedoff Fossils prove evolution. Saying it disproves it doesn't prove anything. Explain why things go from simpler to more complex. Explain why there are no bunnies in the pre-Cambrian. Explain why we find morphological similarities in fossils which are apparently ancestors, or related to their ancestor's, to today's animals.
You can't explain those things. Evolution does. Beside that we have experimental proof of speciation. We have examples of ring-species and outright evolution.
@imallpissedoff I really don't get you. You blame me for an argument from ignorance, where my whole argument is "research". Evolution has been proven beyond doubt with genetics, phylogenetics, morphologically through fossils, observed speciation, observed natural selection, microbiology... I mean look at chromosome #2 fusion!? Don't you think that's a good one?
Abiogenesis is an open question...So what? You don't want them to research it because it might burst your religious bubble? Too bad.
Human chromosome 2 is most likely an event in human history. It's no proof for evolution. And, just because humans have 23, and apes have 24 chomosomes, proves nothing. Cats and pigs both have 19 pairs of 38 chromosomes. The number of chromosomes proves nothing.
Ring species are a hoot. Populations of say, birds, are isolated until they no longer interbreed but when each does reproduce, they have...more birds.
You forgot ERV's. I don't blame you though, what with all the recent discoveries of how many of these "ERV's" have now been found to be functional, and more and more of the "junk DNA" is also being found to have functions that were never dreamed of and are still not understood.
No wonder you're all bitter and upset. I mean, you believe that you are nothing more than a more complex ape. You also know that if that were true, it means that you are basically worthless. Your wife, your children, your parents, everthing, is meaningless and worthless. Why live?
Love only makes you vulnerable. Music may be pleasurable to you but, you don't really know how or why that "evolved". Oh sure, you can speculate but, you don't really know.
@imallpissedoff Spare me the pseudo-psychoanalysis. If the realization that you are a hominid would shatter your delicate psyche, that doesn't mean the same applies to me. I am an ape, so what? Am I supposed to cry? Meh. Yes, the universe is meaningless. That's why it's so great. Why live? To show the worthless universe who's boss, obviously.
I grow tired of this exchange. You may have the last word to parade my idiocy. My presence here proves it.
In all honesty, we both are arguing from ignorance. I just have far more evidence from science for my belief and the failure of evolution is just one small part of it.
@imallpissedoff In all honesty, using your selective bias (thanks to faith) you've managed a half-assed attempt at gathering information and thought, out of which you've created a fake view of science and reality. It makes you feel like a genius who could rewrite science completely. Yes, that's how awesome you think you are. Alas, you are not a genius, and you won't rewrite science. You ignore facts of reality, and use arguments already debunked, some for decades, others are "not even wrong".
@razaa09 Tell that to the "witches" being burned alive somewhere in Africa today, Europe ~300 years ago or beheaded in Saudi Arabia today.
There is no "trouble" if you don't believe? Nice joke. The only trouble you can get in if you don't believe is by being killed by the believers; it is a long lasting tradition in all religions save a few (Jainism, etc.). Unless you're doing the Pascals wager a.k.a. the "aren't you afraid of my hell fantasy" proposition... which is obviously wrong.
@imallpissedoff 1. We have proven the existence of organic molecules arising naturally in the universe. So that's a start. We have also proven the emergence of basic biomolecules (lipids,peptides,nucleotides...). That's an extra point. A hypotheses points to RNA and ribosome like macromolecules to be the origins of "life", since they include both "genetic capabilities" (like DNA) and enzymatic capabilities (like proteins). It's an amazing mystery and an open question.
@imallpissedoff Ah I see. You are one of those "walking fallacies". Well let's get started. Your first response is one big argument from ignorance... "I can't explain it, therefore God". With that attitude you also present your anti-science, anti-logic approach, and therefore you are pro-unfounded bullshit person. Congrats.
Evolution is change over time. Something that's proven in laboratories every day. The "macro"-evolution has been proven implicitly, since we don't live for a million years.
@imallpissedoff What do you expect? Do you expect biologists to search for magic incantations which would "pop" life into existence? Do you want them to search for ancient UFO's?
We know what life is made of. We know how it works. Why do you want the scientists to contrive a hypothesis that can't be proven. Abiogenesis fits nicely into the whole image. Evolution shows how things go from simpler to more complex. Abiogenesis is here to look for how it might've formed. Why do you hate that so much?
We know what life is made of but only a small percentage of how it works.
Scientists actually have theory with that's not proven. It's called, evolution.
Evolution CLAIMS to show how things got more complex, and aboigenesis is pure speculation based on conjecture. I don't hate abiogenesis, I hate when evolutionists argue from ignorance because they want to believe that creation is impossibe.
@imallpissedoff 2. Strange. I was under the impression that the fossils prove evolution. And that the "idiotic scientist" biologists are the experts on the topic, who would've seized the opportunity to disprove evolution if the evidence arose, as the scientific method dictates, so maybe you should rethink your idea that fossils disprove it. Or you should start a website and research laboratory that uses logic and therefore science to disprove fossils as evolutionary proof. Good luck.
Even Stephen Gould admitted to the gaps in the fossil record. Evolutionists have since had to change their story and say that all life is a "transitional form". How conveinient. No evidence, just a declaration by the believers in evolution.
So, maybe you should rethink your dependence on the fossil record. It does not disprove evolution, neither does it prove it but, it does not support the Darwinian theory. Even Darwin admitted to these gaps.
@imallpissedoff You know nothing about evolution. If you did, you'd know that every animal is a transitional fossil. There are no "gaps in the fossil record" the way you want it to be. There are only fossils. And that's what there always was. The only ones who masturbate over the different fossils being found in different shapes and sizes are the creationists, who think that the gap is something magical, when it has always been expected.
Buy a textbook on basic biology. You know shit about it.
LOL. "Every animal is a transitional form". What did I just get done telling you about how evolutionists changed their tune in response to the truth about the fossil record? Hmm?
The fossil record is absolutely replete with gaps. Stephen Gould admitted it, why can't you?
Seems you're the one who knows shit about evolution.
@imallpissedoff I never said that there are no gaps. I said that gaps always existed. That's why it's a bullshit attempt at disproving evolution.
The fossil record shows how things evolved. Face it, there are no bunnies next to ancient prokaryotes or in the Cambrian era. There is a reason for that. It's called evolution. All animals are transitional because all animals represent a specie at a certain point in time. If you don't get that, I'm not surprised you're a creationist.
@imallpissedoff 3. Considering that the emergence of life, complex life, took millions of years ( maybereaching up to a billion) to form the DNA carrying animals we know today, I don't think you should be so hard on the scientific endeavour of not being able to shit out an answer as if it was a religion with no standards of logic and evidence.
We don't yet know how DNA first formed. But that's a + for science. To know what you don't know is the starting point of research. You think otherwise?
Another speculative move by evolutionists. Given enough time, anything could happen. Wow, that's science?
Evolutionists are begining to realize that the universe has not existed long enough for even a functional protein to arise by random chance, or electro-chemical forces. Some even admit this.
@imallpissedoff No scientists are not realizing that the universe has not existed long enough for even a functional protein to arise.
That's something creationist retards bring up when they don't have the basic cognitive dimension to understand such a statistic would be impossible to arrive to. Nobody has made any probabilistic calculations on this subject...well nobody who understands the universe in more terms than "Gawd dun it!".
If you're buying textbooks now. Buy a statistics one as well.
Yes, scientists are begining to admit that it would take more time than the universe has existed for the simplest functional protein to arise by chance and materialistic forces. At least, those who can still think for themselves, and are not as brainwashed as you about their silly religion of evolution.
And that's just for one simple protein. Living cells need alot of different proteins and other components, too.
But, I assume a genius like you already knows that.
@imallpissedoff Explain the probability please? Oh, You can't? Because there is none.
Have your "creationist scientists" added every possible permutation of chemical reactions into their equation? Wow. I'd call that blasphemy, since they're claiming themselves to be god.
Nobody has made such calculations. The ones that did are retarded. It's like calculating the probability of going to the moon in the year -1200 when nobody knew what the laws, or the moon were. Your calculations are a failure.
You want probabilities? There are many, and they make abiogenesis mathemetically impossible.
Here's one. A 150 amino acid protein (small) by randomly assembling from ONLY left hand amino acids, forming ONLY peptide bonds, and specifically sequenced. One chance in 10 to the 195th.
Many have made these calculations. Many atheists, and evolutionists.
These aren't my calculations, and math is no failure.
Nope, I'm not retarded, how about you? Evolution IS a belief system.
If you believe in evolution, you believe that random mutations acted upon by natural selection are responsible for all the plants, birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles, insects...all the millions of forms of life.
You don't even have an explanation for how the first self-replicating cells ( abiogenesis ) came about.
You've simply been brainwashed into a belief system and you're completely unaware of it.
1. The negative reviews of Denton's book are from evolutionists. Surprised? And, you could try availing yourself of the reality that evolution is dying.
2. Evolution is definately a religion. You have to take it on faith that life came about by materialistic forces and then increased in complexity through those undirected forces.
3.You started out by judging my opinion, and you've just admitted that what you said was scientific fact, namely, evolution, is just your opinion.
Anyone who brings to light the truth, that evolution is no more than a religion, itself, based on speculation, conjecture, and interpretation, and is not actually backed by scientific evidence, is called names.
You can have any opinion of the Bible you want; it doesn't make you correct.
The Bible is far more than metaphorical. People who claim that are only revealing their ignorance of the Bible.
If you're uninformed about what scientists believed about the nature and origin of the universe before, and after, the discoveries that led to the Big Bang theory, that's not my problem.
And, if you're also unaware that evolution is a theory in crisis, and why, then maybe you should educate yourself on these matters, and shut the fuck up before you make an even bigger idiot out of yourself.
@squishyfaceguy The man is a hero! What right would YOU have to prolong the suffering of others? I hope you never find yourself in situation where you wished for your own death or a loved one asked for it, but at least try and imagine - this is a personal choice, people should be able to die with dignity.
@andy7666 if a loved one asked for death i wouldnt kill him. id tell that person to suck it up and quit being a pussy. and suicide isnt dying with dignity. its just the opposite. thats a crappy way to die.
So, you'd rather see your loved one suffer, because ending their suffering wouldn't have 'dignity'; a made-up word, an abstract, bullshit idea in our heads. This is seriously how you'll rationalize why unnecessary suffering needs to exist.
This guy is right on. Everytime he is asked a question, he answers it swiftly. I think those that didn't care for him were waiting to see him stumble, but he didn't, not even when he went to prison. Way to keep composure. R.I.P. Jack.
The gospels are independent accounts of the life, teachings, and acts of Jesus. It's certainly not unusual for them to have minor differences but, they all teach the same basic message; the message that Jesus is the Christ that takes away the sin of the world, and that faith in Him is the only way to avoid eternal separation from God.
Doesn't seem like He's asking for too much, just faith.
Dr. Kevorkian was an amazing human being, his case just shows the ignorance of the government, that they are denying people assistance to end their lives when they are suffering. He is an amazing individual rights advocate and I think it's terrible the way people think of him as a villain.
The Supreme Court should have heard his case. Lawmakers should put the issue more boldly before the people, and then do the peoples' will. It is their job. We must progress as a society and a nation, and that process must not be made difficult. Least of all, by those we put in power to do just the opposite.
What I never understood was why everyone tries so damn hard to keep a person alive even they're suffering and wanting to end their life while animals are put down without a second thought if they have some kind of a disability or injury. I find human to be much more cruel than animals.
God better had the golden gates open for this man when he passed. This man is pure genuis, pure human. I love the part about his saying the doctors should conform to the patients wishes or basically they are shit doctors. I applaud this man for what he did. My cousin passed away from Brain cancer, I watched him die at home. It was horrible. I know if this type of thing was available, he wouldnt have suffered the way he did. The government can go fuck themselves. You should b able 2 die in peace!
@BlackScreenCorp My favorite part. A loving god creates such poor evidence for its existence through the Bible that most of the world isn't even convinced that's the correct religion, and even those of that religion can't agree on basic tenets of that religion across Christianity's many thousands of denominations. And despite putting such shoddy, idiotic evidence in for its existence, this loving and all-knowing being will eternally torture people who don't believe it exists.
@BigMikeMcBastard And you have proof that something can come out of nothing? God is the same as the big bang. You know that it is around but you cannot pin point as to how it happened. If the big bang can come out from nothing, then how can God not as well. How is it that even though there are different views of god in different beliefs even since the beginning of mankind, there has always been a similar image in all cultures who never knew eachothers existence?
@captainsunder009 Do a search on YouTube for "A Universe From Nothing", the one with Lawrence Krauss, and learn about how nothing isn't nothing.
Either way, so, what, if we don't know exactly how something works we fold our arms and say "god did it"? Talk about being intellectually lazy. We'd still be living in caves if people had that attitude.
Religions are similar because they plagiarize each other. Christianity plagiarized Judaism and other religions, Islam plagiarized Christianity, etc.
@BigMikeMcBastard That doesn't explain anything. People can only come up with theories but that doesn't mean they are necessarily right. Just because a person is intelligent doesn't always mean that they are right. I never said that it means that god did it but the point of my argument if you had read carefully is that if you mock the existence of god, then you must also question as to why you believe what you believe and then just believe in it rather than mock others. Cont.
@captainsunder009 You said "god" as if there's only one possible god, and I know which one you mean. I really don't. I can only assume you mean the Christian god, but even then, which denomination, I dunno. Even if you were able to demonstrate that there has to be a god (you can't) you still have all your work left to do to demonstrate that YOUR god is the right one. So which god am I mocking, and who says that's the right god? Maybe this is a false god. Maybe I'm doing good by the true god.
@BigMikeMcBastard I cannot say god/s nature, but what I can say is that it doesn't matter religiously as such, but that we think as human beings that everything is ours. We have to grow up and realise that with that mentality, this is why we will destroy ourselves and no i am not referring to some stupid apocalyptic bs, but mankinds utter stupidity in that we think we are superior.
@captainsunder009 Mankind will destroy itself over religion. Period. The end. Islamists will eventually become nuclear powers, Christians will refuse to fight global warming because they think god only said he'd flood the world once, and so on and so forth. Religion is the death knell of humanity, and we won't be safe from ourselves until we abandon it as a society in favour of actually being rational and intelligent people, rather than superstitious, dogmatic idiots.
@BigMikeMcBastard And how do you know global warming exists? Many scientists who are even atheists question global warming as there is not enough evidence to prove it and there actually isn't. The world has had massive changes in climate before and it is possible that we are shifting after millions of years all over again. So now you are mocking atheists and mocking scientists as well then. You make assumptions as if you are a child and based on your hippy comment on GW I see you must be.
@BigMikeMcBastard Religions don't genuinely copy eachother and there are reasons why people have universal concepts as humans which cannot be explained by science. You make it look like mankind only created religion to keep people in check and give us a reason to exist. But based on your logic, then science can be seen as a mere tool of mankind to make ourselves look smarter. Neither is correct but based on your logic, we should be negative and one sided about everything in life.
@captainsunder009 Religions obviously copy each other. Islam is founded on the basis of Arabs wanting their own revelation. The plagiarism is so obvious it's genuinely very funny.
Humanity made religion because we were smart before we figured out how to be scientific. People saw patterns and mysterious events and they needed answers. But the gods of the Aztecs aren't anything like the gods of the Ojibwe, who aren't anything like the god of Abraham, who isn't anything like the Greek gods.
@BigMikeMcBastard Are they not? You only look at the differences in regards to sacrifice, but if you look carefully, their concepts are actually quite similar. You look at cultural differences which shape how a religion can spread in a different way, but that doesn't mean the god/s are different but how different cultures perceive particular parts.
And they added those or more years to the life of people who are suffering and don't want to live anymore. That's what happens when religion gets mixed up with law, everyone gets punished for wanting to do the right thing. Hopefully more people like Jack will step up and complete what he started.
I watched my Mom take her last breath, she died from pancreatic cancer, I FULLY supported this man, I truely believe We as individuales should have the right to have help in ending our lives IF we are diagnosed with a terminal illness. Dying from cancer (which ive seen a loved 1 do) is NO WAY to die!
@imallpissedoff Because Dr. Kevorkian chose to die the natural way, doesn't make him a hypocrite IMO. The right for those who are terminally ill to choose which way to die doesn't make assisted suicide the right answer for everyone. I don't believe in abortion because the choice is being made to end a life not your own, this is different. Not every dying person should be "euthanized" but at least give that person who is suffering in pain that option if that's what they so desire.
@imallpissedoff Most people don't want to go out via self-inflicted gunshot wound or a potentially painful misuse of pills or something, and it isn't like Kevorkian was just one man in a crowded market.
I know it's off topic but, why is it that the courts worry about a heinous murderer feeling pain when he's being executed but, this machine, which works the same way, is said to cause no pain?
@imallpissedoff His patients did not want to live anymore so he granted them their wish. That's what it's about, and that's what Dr. Kavorkian promoted, the ability for PATIENTS to choose when they check out, and if they're physically unable to do it themselves (as Thomas Yourke who had severe ALS) he does it for them.
I can only imagine you'd change your tune if you ever have a family member in terminal illness or with a debilitating affliction. Kavorkian is a hero.
@merlechmoose Christians don't really give a shit about what Jesus said or did. It's not about being Christ-like, it's about being "Christian", which means voting Republican, hating women and minorities, supporting aggressive, imperialistic foreign policy, and otherwise trying to keep the US in that magical era that was the 1950's. Charity, humility, and forgiveness have no place in the modern American Christian's life.
@imallpissedoff Yeah, that's why the US has such an enormous foreign aid budget right? That's why it provides health care to everyone and doesn't fuck over poor people? That's why it's so adverse to killing through needless wars and supporting brutal dictators or the death penalty? That's why its social programs are so robust? That's why it's so generous toward immigrants seeking shelter?
There are Christians out there who are Christ-like, but they're the exception to the rule.
@imallpissedoff It's a fact that one of the world's most religious country's is also one of its most miserly, apathetic to human suffering, and eager to spill blood for its own interests. Whatever being Christian means to most Americans, it has nothing to do with anything Jesus said.
@imallpissedoff Canada was in WW2, Canada was in Korea, Canada is in Afghanistan and we've contributed a tiny bit to that retarded war in Iraq despite the public being totally opposed to any involvement there. So I'm not sure what you're on about.
Anyway, it's aside from the fact. One day, assisted, humane suicide will be an option even in the US. And one day, idiots who believe in magical sky wizards who are always watching you and punish you after death will keep the ideas to themselves.
Canada did gladly help in WWII and Korea. That was back before they became liberal pussies who can't figure out why they need to stop radical islam.
Don't fool yourself, belief in a Creator will always be around because thoughtful people know that the universe, it's finely tuned laws and forces, and life are not an uncaused accident.
You'd better hope that the believers in islam aren't victorious.
@imallpissedoff Didn't I just say we were in Afghanistan? I know people who've died and been badly wounded there so let's not pretend like we didn't go in guns blazing to shoot some brown people with you.
As for your creator nonsense, people are designed to seek patterns and religious parents indoctrinate their kids into believing all sorts of stupid shit. And kids can't help but believe it, because that's how we evolved, to learn from our elders. So sad. But one day intelligence will overcome.
As if Canada would initiate a war like America does, when there's no choice.
Sure, some normal Canadians gladly joined the fight but, most of you seem to think peace is easy. You just declare peace, regardless of the fact that someone wants to kill you.
I'll tell you what's nonsense, thinking that nothing became everything, from nothing.
There are more and more atheist scientists changing their minds because of the discoveries of how the universe and life, are constructed.
@imallpissedoff Nah, Canada doesn't waste money on having a huge military so it can go around blowing up people it doesn't like. And, what a shock, nobody has done a 9/11 or a 7/7 on us. I wonder why that might be.
There aren't more scientists becoming religious, there are less. As education level rises, the odds that someone will be religious falls quite a lot. Religion thrives on ignorance. When people actually learn a thing or two about the world, guys like Kevorkian are understandable.
Canada doesn't have to waste huge amounts of money on their defense because we provide most of it, and what a shock, islam has not focused on Canada because you're insignificant.
And yes, as we've discovered more about the finely tuned natural forces of gravity, electromagnetism, the strong and weak nuclear forces, the complexity of life and the functional information contained in DNA, more scientists are asking themselves, how it can all be a random accident?
Nobody says its all a random accident, "But the god did it" hypothesis is not scientific since it can't be measured or studied its a matter best left to philosophy. Science cannot disprove the notion that life & the universe came from an intelligent "creator" but it can disprove the numerous religions & holy-books claiming to be authored by said creator.
Well, if the universe and life aren't the product of an intelligent designer, then what other option is there but random chance?
Seems to me that the idea that this orderly universe, designed for life, and life itself, is NOT the product of an intelligent designer, is unscientific.
If you want to try and disprove the Bible, good luck. It's account of the universe's begining agrees with science, it's historically accurate, and it's the only book with fulfilled prophecy.
I am an ex-christian, I spent years as a believer and when I reached adulthood I took the time to question and more thoroughly examine the beliefs I was raised with, Their is no fulfilled prophecies otherwise find me a copy of Isaiah & Daniel that dates too the time period the "authors" claim to have written it from and not after the fact, Daniel was not written by Daniel the prophet (he is a fictional character) but by a Jewish author in the time of the Hellenistic kingdoms.

Okay, I'll bite on this bandwagon. I admire. Dr. K. I have seen more than a few people die horrible deaths of person who knew they were dying, didn't want to live and persons confronted with health issues which if unabated would have scarred the family. Yet, our Government took away Dr. License, put him in prison. They are now using his technology as "humane forms of death for inmates on Death Row. Kudos to Dr. K. and his work. Death with Dignity, yeah, for Death Row Inmates-Hang them.

If people actually read about this man, you would know that over 60% of his patients were not even terminally ill or even complained about pain. Also the majority of his patients were women. One of the women had just finished playing a tennis game w/ her son, and went in to be killed. He didn't offer counseling before providing death. There is no such thing as "death w/ or w/ out dignity," no need to make it sound pretty, death is death, it is what it is.

@imallpissedoff Evolution is a theory of ultimate success. Either you think that the scientific method of getting evidence and finding truth is wrong, or you think it's right. If science is the way to truth, the scientists will find it. And they have.

@imallpissedoff Fossils prove evolution. Saying it disproves it doesn't prove anything. Explain why things go from simpler to more complex. Explain why there are no bunnies in the pre-Cambrian. Explain why we find morphological similarities in fossils which are apparently ancestors, or related to their ancestor's, to today's animals.
You can't explain those things. Evolution does. Beside that we have experimental proof of speciation. We have examples of ring-species and outright evolution.

Abiogenesis is an open question...So what? You don't want them to research it because it might burst your religious bubble? Too bad.

Human chromosome 2 is most likely an event in human history. It's no proof for evolution. And, just because humans have 23, and apes have 24 chomosomes, proves nothing. Cats and pigs both have 19 pairs of 38 chromosomes. The number of chromosomes proves nothing.
Ring species are a hoot. Populations of say, birds, are isolated until they no longer interbreed but when each does reproduce, they have...more birds.

@imallpissedoff 1. We have proven the existence of organic molecules arising naturally in the universe. So that's a start. We have also proven the emergence of basic biomolecules (lipids,peptides,nucleotides...). That's an extra point. A hypotheses points to RNA and ribosome like macromolecules to be the origins of "life", since they include both "genetic capabilities" (like DNA) and enzymatic capabilities (like proteins). It's an amazing mystery and an open question.
badblueman 7 months ago

Life requires properly sequenced amino acids to produce functional proteins. We have discovered no such thing arising naturally in nature.

@imallpissedoff 2. Strange. I was under the impression that the fossils prove evolution. And that the "idiotic scientist" biologists are the experts on the topic, who would've seized the opportunity to disprove evolution if the evidence arose, as the scientific method dictates, so maybe you should rethink your idea that fossils disprove it. Or you should start a website and research laboratory that uses logic and therefore science to disprove fossils as evolutionary proof. Good luck.

@badblueman
Even Stephen Gould admitted to the gaps in the fossil record. Evolutionists have since had to change their story and say that all life is a "transitional form". How conveinient. No evidence, just a declaration by the believers in evolution.
So, maybe you should rethink your dependence on the fossil record. It does not disprove evolution, neither does it prove it but, it does not support the Darwinian theory. Even Darwin admitted to these gaps.
Good luck to you, too.
imallpissedoff 7 months ago
@imallpissedoff You know nothing about evolution. If you did, you'd know that every animal is a transitional fossil. There are no "gaps in the fossil record" the way you want it to be. There are only fossils. And that's what there always was. The only ones who masturbate over the different fossils being found in different shapes and sizes are the creationists, who think that the gap is something magical, when it has always been expected.

imallpissedoff 7 months ago
@imallpissedoff I never said that there are no gaps. I said that gaps always existed. That's why it's a bullshit attempt at disproving evolution.
The fossil record shows how things evolved. Face it, there are no bunnies next to ancient prokaryotes or in the Cambrian era. There is a reason for that. It's called evolution. All animals are transitional because all animals represent a specie at a certain point in time. If you don't get that, I'm not surprised you're a creationist.
badblueman 7 months ago
@badblueman
Yes, you said there are no gaps. Thanks for finally admitting that there are.
The fossil record turns Darwin's tree of life upside down. Even he knew the Cambrian period had fully formed phyla and classes of animals.
All animals are now called transitional because the gaps that you've admitted to never went away after 150yrs of digging for them.
imallpissedoff 7 months ago
@imallpissedoff 3. Considering that the emergence of life, complex life, took millions of years ( maybereaching up to a billion) to form the DNA carrying animals we know today, I don't think you should be so hard on the scientific endeavour of not being able to shit out an answer as if it was a religion with no standards of logic and evidence.
We don't yet know how DNA first formed. But that's a + for science. To know what you don't know is the starting point of research. You think otherwise?

@BigMikeMcBastard That doesn't explain anything. People can only come up with theories but that doesn't mean they are necessarily right. Just because a person is intelligent doesn't always mean that they are right. I never said that it means that god did it but the point of my argument if you had read carefully is that if you mock the existence of god, then you must also question as to why you believe what you believe and then just believe in it rather than mock others. Cont.

@captainsunder009 You said "god" as if there's only one possible god, and I know which one you mean. I really don't. I can only assume you mean the Christian god, but even then, which denomination, I dunno. Even if you were able to demonstrate that there has to be a god (you can't) you still have all your work left to do to demonstrate that YOUR god is the right one. So which god am I mocking, and who says that's the right god? Maybe this is a false god. Maybe I'm doing good by the true god.
BigMikeMcBastard 8 months ago
@BigMikeMcBastard I cannot say god/s nature, but what I can say is that it doesn't matter religiously as such, but that we think as human beings that everything is ours. We have to grow up and realise that with that mentality, this is why we will destroy ourselves and no i am not referring to some stupid apocalyptic bs, but mankinds utter stupidity in that we think we are superior.
captainsunder009 8 months ago
@captainsunder009 Mankind will destroy itself over religion. Period. The end. Islamists will eventually become nuclear powers, Christians will refuse to fight global warming because they think god only said he'd flood the world once, and so on and so forth. Religion is the death knell of humanity, and we won't be safe from ourselves until we abandon it as a society in favour of actually being rational and intelligent people, rather than superstitious, dogmatic idiots.
BigMikeMcBastard 8 months ago
@BigMikeMcBastard And how do you know global warming exists? Many scientists who are even atheists question global warming as there is not enough evidence to prove it and there actually isn't. The world has had massive changes in climate before and it is possible that we are shifting after millions of years all over again. So now you are mocking atheists and mocking scientists as well then. You make assumptions as if you are a child and based on your hippy comment on GW I see you must be.

@BigMikeMcBastard Religions don't genuinely copy eachother and there are reasons why people have universal concepts as humans which cannot be explained by science. You make it look like mankind only created religion to keep people in check and give us a reason to exist. But based on your logic, then science can be seen as a mere tool of mankind to make ourselves look smarter. Neither is correct but based on your logic, we should be negative and one sided about everything in life.
captainsunder009 8 months ago
@captainsunder009 Religions obviously copy each other. Islam is founded on the basis of Arabs wanting their own revelation. The plagiarism is so obvious it's genuinely very funny.
Humanity made religion because we were smart before we figured out how to be scientific. People saw patterns and mysterious events and they needed answers. But the gods of the Aztecs aren't anything like the gods of the Ojibwe, who aren't anything like the god of Abraham, who isn't anything like the Greek gods.
BigMikeMcBastard 8 months ago
@BigMikeMcBastard Are they not? You only look at the differences in regards to sacrifice, but if you look carefully, their concepts are actually quite similar. You look at cultural differences which shape how a religion can spread in a different way, but that doesn't mean the god/s are different but how different cultures perceive particular parts.

Whatever a person decides to do in their final days should be a private matter.
Life and death decisions like these should not be made public policy, or worse, law.
(Obama care, anyone?)
But, he died a hypocrite.
He spent his last days in the hospital trying to extend his...wait for it...
LIFE!
Why didn't he use his own machine on himself?
I wonder if any of the doctors or nurses asked him if he wanted them to go get him his own machine?
XD XD XD
imallpissedoff 8 months ago
@imallpissedoff Because Dr. Kevorkian chose to die the natural way, doesn't make him a hypocrite IMO. The right for those who are terminally ill to choose which way to die doesn't make assisted suicide the right answer for everyone. I don't believe in abortion because the choice is being made to end a life not your own, this is different. Not every dying person should be "euthanized" but at least give that person who is suffering in pain that option if that's what they so desire.

@imallpissedoff His patients did not want to live anymore so he granted them their wish. That's what it's about, and that's what Dr. Kavorkian promoted, the ability for PATIENTS to choose when they check out, and if they're physically unable to do it themselves (as Thomas Yourke who had severe ALS) he does it for them.
I can only imagine you'd change your tune if you ever have a family member in terminal illness or with a debilitating affliction. Kavorkian is a hero.

imallpissedoff 8 months ago
@merlechmoose Christians don't really give a shit about what Jesus said or did. It's not about being Christ-like, it's about being "Christian", which means voting Republican, hating women and minorities, supporting aggressive, imperialistic foreign policy, and otherwise trying to keep the US in that magical era that was the 1950's. Charity, humility, and forgiveness have no place in the modern American Christian's life.

That's why it's so generous toward immigrants seeking shelter?
There are Christians out there who are Christ-like, but they're the exception to the rule.

@imallpissedoff It's a fact that one of the world's most religious country's is also one of its most miserly, apathetic to human suffering, and eager to spill blood for its own interests. Whatever being Christian means to most Americans, it has nothing to do with anything Jesus said.

@imallpissedoff Canada was in WW2, Canada was in Korea, Canada is in Afghanistan and we've contributed a tiny bit to that retarded war in Iraq despite the public being totally opposed to any involvement there. So I'm not sure what you're on about.
Anyway, it's aside from the fact. One day, assisted, humane suicide will be an option even in the US. And one day, idiots who believe in magical sky wizards who are always watching you and punish you after death will keep the ideas to themselves.
BigMikeMcBastard 8 months ago
@BigMikeMcBastard
Canada did gladly help in WWII and Korea. That was back before they became liberal pussies who can't figure out why they need to stop radical islam.
Don't fool yourself, belief in a Creator will always be around because thoughtful people know that the universe, it's finely tuned laws and forces, and life are not an uncaused accident.
You'd better hope that the believers in islam aren't victorious.
imallpissedoff 8 months ago
@imallpissedoff Didn't I just say we were in Afghanistan? I know people who've died and been badly wounded there so let's not pretend like we didn't go in guns blazing to shoot some brown people with you.
As for your creator nonsense, people are designed to seek patterns and religious parents indoctrinate their kids into believing all sorts of stupid shit. And kids can't help but believe it, because that's how we evolved, to learn from our elders. So sad. But one day intelligence will overcome.
BigMikeMcBastard 8 months ago
@BigMikeMcBastard
As if Canada would initiate a war like America does, when there's no choice.
Sure, some normal Canadians gladly joined the fight but, most of you seem to think peace is easy. You just declare peace, regardless of the fact that someone wants to kill you.
I'll tell you what's nonsense, thinking that nothing became everything, from nothing.
There are more and more atheist scientists changing their minds because of the discoveries of how the universe and life, are constructed.
imallpissedoff 8 months ago
@imallpissedoff Nah, Canada doesn't waste money on having a huge military so it can go around blowing up people it doesn't like. And, what a shock, nobody has done a 9/11 or a 7/7 on us. I wonder why that might be.
There aren't more scientists becoming religious, there are less. As education level rises, the odds that someone will be religious falls quite a lot. Religion thrives on ignorance. When people actually learn a thing or two about the world, guys like Kevorkian are understandable.
BigMikeMcBastard 8 months ago
@BigMikeMcBastard
Canada doesn't have to waste huge amounts of money on their defense because we provide most of it, and what a shock, islam has not focused on Canada because you're insignificant.
And yes, as we've discovered more about the finely tuned natural forces of gravity, electromagnetism, the strong and weak nuclear forces, the complexity of life and the functional information contained in DNA, more scientists are asking themselves, how it can all be a random accident?
imallpissedoff 8 months ago
@imallpissedoff
Nobody says its all a random accident, "But the god did it" hypothesis is not scientific since it can't be measured or studied its a matter best left to philosophy. Science cannot disprove the notion that life & the universe came from an intelligent "creator" but it can disprove the numerous religions & holy-books claiming to be authored by said creator.

Well, if the universe and life aren't the product of an intelligent designer, then what other option is there but random chance?
Seems to me that the idea that this orderly universe, designed for life, and life itself, is NOT the product of an intelligent designer, is unscientific.
If you want to try and disprove the Bible, good luck. It's account of the universe's begining agrees with science, it's historically accurate, and it's the only book with fulfilled prophecy.

I am an ex-christian, I spent years as a believer and when I reached adulthood I took the time to question and more thoroughly examine the beliefs I was raised with, Their is no fulfilled prophecies otherwise find me a copy of Isaiah & Daniel that dates too the time period the "authors" claim to have written it from and not after the fact, Daniel was not written by Daniel the prophet (he is a fictional character) but by a Jewish author in the time of the Hellenistic kingdoms.
