Pareidolia: a psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus (often an image or sound) being perceived as significant. Common examples include seeing images of animals or faces in clouds, the man in the moon or the Moon rabbit, and hearing hidden messages on records played in rev...

Assuming 2.1 MJ of energy per stick of dynamite, this brake system dissipated the equivalent energy of detonating 59 sticks of dynamite.

And I thought I was the only one watching the commentary. Bravo.

@MAnnaconduit1

Other religions do get mocked. Christianity is the largest religion in the world and the number one religion in the U.S. The culture of the U.S. is shared by many around the world so you are more likely by sheer probability to encounter criticism of Christianity in popular cultur...

@TheRushingWind

It's so satisfying to read a comment from someone who seems to be rational and compassionate; but then resorts to name calling, generalizations of a whole nation and hyperbole.

1.) Morons - name calling

2.) No wonder the whole world hates you - hyperbole/generalization

Sorry ...

@maxavail

Go to iTunes and search "reasonable doubts podcast". There is a two part episode called "cross examining the gospels" or something like that. The hosts are professors and one is a biblical scholar who is an atheist. They talk about the differences and show that there are striking and ...

Knew it. History channel: Modern Marvels, I think the history of pork. I knew it would come in handy.

The metric system is still base 10. Where are you getting base 5 from? You can still fold a piece of paper in 1/2, 1/4, etc, that has nothing to do with units. What are you talking about? Do you have a space bar? Use it after periods and between words.

Gravity is related to the mass of an object, not its weight. Weight is the product of a mass in a gravitational field. The mass of the Moon is approximately 1/6 of Earth's. You would have a smaller weight on the Moon, but not a smaller mass. Your mass is constant. The packs they are wearing are a...

@gobroncoes

So you oppose birth control pills which thicken the uterine walls and may prevent a embryo from implanting?

Living cells+ human cells doesn't equal "life". Otherwise every cell on your body would be a baby.

The growth of cells doesn't mean that they are a life.

"If not, the bab...

@Denizen36

I assume that means you approve of the website I suggested. Glad to hear it!

@mysticresistence

If your beliefs agree with reality, such as murder is bad and kindness is good, then their truth value stands alone. If your teachings include supernatural claims, then they must be supported by evidence. If they are not, they are irrational beliefs. I think it is perfectly ac...

If you come upon a fallen tree in the woods, you may ask "what happened to this tree"? Your friend might say, "must have been a dragon". You say "I don't think it was a dragon". He responds "neither one of us knows for sure, so it could be a dragon". The obvious fact is that your friend has creat...

@CBALLEN

Predestination? Okay, then why would a god create some beings knowing they are not chosen? Could he not implement his plan without wasting lives and sending people to hell? Even if they are not "chosen", what good does eternity in hell do? What purpose could it serve? How do you know y...

@Valanor1

An omnipotent all powerful god could accomplish his goals and plans without mass genocide. If not, he is not all powerful. Why does god have the right to take life? Is anything god does moral? Is it might makes right? Is sounds like you have chosen your take on the Euthyphro dilemma. ...

@tchesnokovn

I think America creating an atomic bomb kind of created a safety net. The US would have won no matter what. It just would of been a question of what was left to claim. Without Russia, Germany may have had time to bring the war to the Eastern US, but I think we would have developed ...

@Apologist4Christ973

My argument is not that God is mean, therefore he does not exist. I am just mocking your God as depicted in your book. Present your argument for the existence of God. I don't care about good or evil for now, especially if you claim that it is irrelevant since whatever God d...

@geekballin216

You do know that there are also books that have science topics in them, right? Actually, there are many more real science books than there are story books like the Bible. There is far more evidence of humans evolving from lower species than there is of a God creating them. What ...

This just shows how these people have been programmed to think that this guy was some kind of deity. All their lives they've been told that he was a god.

9:14, Bill's look is the perfect response to that applause.

@Idazmi7

Atheism is not hatred of God. Atheism is a disbelief in God. You can't hate what you don't believe in. I can't hate the Easter bunny. I don't think we should turn this video into a religious debate, but I think your lack of understanding of what an atheist even is may be the reason we'...

The problem is that they made Star Trek into Star Wars. They really did remove the spirit of the genre while substituting explosions and faster camera movement. I am glad they did it though, because the franchise was about done. Now there is a second chance to revive it.

This guy's high school science project was an atom smasher he built in his parent's garage. No kidding.

@beerfairy

Ha ha, yes, I suppose they could. Manatees also live in rivers during the winter. There would be no rivers if the Earth was flooded completely. Yes, some species of animal would survive changes in salinity, but most would not. Far fewer than we see today. Several thousand years isn't...

"You can't tell me exactly why, therefore I'm making something up". Ridiculous. Person 1:Why did the sky flash like that? Person2: Hmmm....... don't know, we're working on that. Person1: Well until you can explain it, I'm saying it was Zeus. We all know that sounds stupid, but why is it that some...

@MistaMayotte

I think I may have conceded somewhere on these comments that the details of other children being born before Seth could have been omitted. I think it's still poorly written for something that is supposed to be "divinely inspired". All this basically depends on believing that human...

@UnexpectedWonder

Mammals at this time were small and subterranean. They survived underground and emerged. Sea life also survived. It took the plates millions of years to get were they are. The Earth is 4.54 billion years old. The age has changed, but if you plot the change, you see that it is ...
