After reading through the Bible several times, I am convinced of the following. Humans are the first creatures that God created on the earth which:
1) Capable of person-to-person, face-to-face communication with him.
Remember what God told Avraham (Abraham): “Walk in my presence (literally: walk before me) and be pure-hearted.” (CJB)
No other creature in the world were capable of doing so up until Adam.
2) Are capable of having a personal relationship with him.
3) Capable of organizing and managing their world and of working as he worked to create. To me, humans are at their best when they create.
4) Capable of farming and animal husbandry, which, interestingly enough, appeared at about the same time in man’s world.

Twins killed at COP park in Calgary by running down a locked sledding track and get front page news and numerous articles in the Calgary Herald.

What a screwed up set of values we have. http://calgaryherald.com/news/local-news/caldwell-twins-remembered-as-tricksters-with-immeasurable-achievements
The Talmudist points out that ‘rib’ (צלעה צלע
tsêlâ‛ tsal‛âh), in Genesis, is wrongly translated in the English. He doesn’t point out that the proper translation is ‘curve’.
Besides the obvious that women have more curves than men, DNA is also curved…
I’m sorry johnbrooks but I don’t see anything offensive about the article in the Herald. They were just two gifted kids out having a good time. Had they stolen a car or robbed a bank, OK, maybe I’d get excited! But they went for a sleigh ride and things went wrong!! They died!! Isn’t that enough punishment?? May God keep their souls!
Sorry neither evolutionists nor creationists are right. Humanity started when a drunk alien raped a monkey, ample evidence of it is available everyday everywhere.

You know, physicists as a group are a pretty religious lot. Maybe having an appreciation for the scale of the universe fosters the necessary humility. Half of Isaac Newton’s work was bible study. Georges Lemaitre, who first proposed the Big Bang theory, was a priest.
Not really. I think the story has community interest and will generate much sympathy. Kids often do dumb things — Do not usually pay with their lives. The story will have an impact on other kids re engaging in risky behaviour.
Wonder if Trudeau gave Mr Moon of the UN his two hand handshake in his butt licking bid to get Canada that seat at the UN? It’s so important to sit among the depots and dictators who make up the majority in that farcical place.

Might I also suggest this https://youtu.be/7WAhDOUn_BU by Chuck Missler. From a mathematical perspective on chance, this is an amazing explanation of some facts which those in the SDA community may find enlightening.

He penned over 44,000 pages of research in 50 years, into the Hebrew and Greek texts of the Bible. Startling and fascinating!!
Ban giving Justin a pat on the head (while Canadians swoon) is simply all for show. Essentially Justin is a UN puppet. He will be pushing their Agenda 2030. Canada can expect to see its wealth radically decrease. There will be no pipelines or other paths to prosperity because we are being set up for global communism. WE have already be designated the “first post-national country”.
I did not take Trudeau’s early remark about “admiring China” all that seriously, but I now realize my mistake. It’s all here: https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/post2015/transformingourworld (though they do a good job of attempting to obscure their methods.) This is the full-blown road map for redistributing the worlds wealth. Journalists seem disinterested, while this is moving forward at an alarming pace.
Justin is influenced by the globalists and he is colossally naive. He is in over his head. (I am assuming he himself has good intentions and the best interests of Canada at heart, but maybe that is wrong too.)

No, it does not mean that gravitons exist. It means that there is a “fabric” of spacetime which is malleable under certain extreme circumstances, and that the amplitude is on the order of 10^-21 meters.
More and more I am becoming convinced that space is not a continuum, but that volume is quantized at the Planck scale.
Quite right, nold. The measurement is a tiny change in distance for a tiny fraction of a second. Then there followed a lot of analysis to eliminate any possible confounding factors. If and when it’s observed again by a second array, that will constitute additional confirmation. But collisions of collapsars are extremely rare events.
