Q&A: Boy, don’t you think God focked up on our alleged design? Stupid design?

Question by Dennis E. Gillient: Boy, don’t you think God focked up on our alleged design? Stupid design?

So many vestigial organs, our spine is not well DESIGNED for upright walking, we have useless wisdom teeth, most of us have bad eyesight that only gets worse in age and we have a tail bone.
We’re only one of the species that God completely dropped the ball on. God DESIGNED the baleen whale with a pelvis and femur as if it was supposed to walk on the land sometime before. That’s ridiculous!

In short, WTF was God thinking?
Creationsim argument comes down to an insult. Wish they could think up, oh I don’t know, EVIDENCE! Too bad their limited brain doesn’t allow them to do so.

Question by edward mann: Do Jews think that God made a fundamental design fault with the foreskin?

Do they think that they know better than God on this issue?
Thanks for your replies. What we are actually talking about his is genital mutilation. I think people who allow this to be done to their children should be arrested for assault. How could any loving parent inflict pain on their child for no good reason? And there is no good reason!! How about you female posters, how would you feel if your parents forced it on you, and yes, it does happen!

Obviously. Honestly? It takes away sensitivity so there will be less enjoyment. It’s akin to the horrible clitorectomies that are performed on young women without anesthesia in many 3rd world countries. Torture.

When a man’s penis is hard, you would never know they weren’t circumcised. I personally believe that our creator wanted us to enjoy making love to each other and getting excited about it. There is much less excitement when the protective covering is gone. Rubbing inside underwear or pants without the foreskin to protect it, makes the sensitivity much less.

Did you know that some little boys take a few years to really get over the circumcision experience. If your little baby boy is grumpy as phuc for a few years after circumcision, it’s because the stupid doctors believe they don’t feel that pain. They are full of crap. They feel it very much so.

Our creator would not have designed all of our lovely men and boys with it had it not had a purpose. And for all you women, young or old? As long as they shower everyday, it’s not dirty either.

Planet Earth-Dangerous Design

The suppression of uncomfortable ideas may be common in religion or in politics, but it is not the path to knowledge, and there’s no place for it in the endeavor of science. Carl Sagan This present-day version of God of the gaps goes by a fresh name: intelligent design. The term suggests that some entity, endowed with a mental capacity far greater than the human mind can muster, created or enabled all the things in the physical world that we cannot explain through scientific methods. An interesting hypothesis. But why confine ourselves to things too wondrous or intricate for us to understand, whose existence and attributes we then credit to a superintelligence? Instead, why not tally all those things whose design is so clunky, goofy, impractical, or unworkable that they reflect the absence of intelligence? And what comedian designer configured the region between our legs-an entertainment complex built around a sewage system? Stupid design could fuel a movement unto itself. It may not be nature’s default, but it’s ubiquitous. Yet people seem to enjoy thinking that our bodies, our minds, and even our universe represent pinnacles of form and reason. Maybe it’s a good antidepressant to think so. But it’s not science-not now, not in the past, not ever. -Neil degrasse Tyson Religious fundamentalists may deny that evolution exists, but in the natural world it is religion that does not exist. -John Maisey of American Museum of Natural History Nature is telling us something and it …

Q&A: Is there a news black out for the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act, HR 4040?

Question by Arcanum Noctis: Is there a news black out for the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act, HR 4040?

The gist of HR 4040 is to protect America’s children by putting tracking chips into their toys to make recalling effective. The chips have the batch number etc..

In the passing of HR 4040, there were over 400 ayes with only about 20 nays or no votes.

Why did both main parties overwhelming support security over privacy?

Are parents being exploited through their children for acceptance of RFID chips?

Within a couple generations, will this result in a chip-like society through the conditioning of the children thinking RFID chips in everything is the norm?

How do you personally feel about HR 4040?
“SEC. 103. TRACKING LABELS FOR CHILDREN’S PRODUCTS.”

How do you think they are going to be able to do that? Either with a new second bar code on products or an electronic bar code aka RFID chip.

Considering manufacturers have been focusing on RFID chips, and not developing a new second bar code, they are going to use RFID chips for recall purposes because its “feasible”.

What people fail to understand is that the “tracking label” isn’t specific, which manufacturers will use what is “feasible”.

Each pixel, viewed by itself, means nothing. Stepping back, to gain a wider perspective, we can see a picture emerging.

Most people just concentrate on one or two pixels and deny that there is a larger picture.

Tips for avoiding engine failure

Tips for avoiding engine failure

Engine failure in cars can happen for a variety of different reasons. The most common reason why an engine would fail is due to lack of routine care. There are components that not only wear down and have to be replaced on a regular basis, fluid levels that have to be checked routinely. Vehicles that aren’t maintained properly can cause an engine to fail for a number of reasons.

One reason you should do a routine check is there are many filtering mechanisms on a vehicles engine. These regulate the purity of things like gasoline, air into the carburetor and engine oil. Without changing these regularly they will clog up, making your engine work harder than it has to maintain the same performance. You also have to regularly clean the radiator for both the engine and the transmission.

You have to check fluid levels often. There are many different engine components that require lubrication, coolants and fluids all to maintain a cars performance. More recently made vehicles also have added features like air conditioning units, electronic components, and other things that require even a greater more complex regime. Just checking and maintaining a car’s fluid levels either. Build up occurs over time, in the motor, gas tank, radiator, and any other place where deposits will collect. If these systems are not flushed out at least once a year, deposit will build up, making the engine run hotter, and wear out faster.

If a vehicle isn’t maintained properly, here just a few of the possible scenarios that can cause engine failure. Too high of a temperature in the motor causes the metal to expand, creating less and less ability for internal components to move. What happens simply is that if your engine gets hot enough for something to stick, like a piston, or a valve, your engine doesn’t just stop; the force will cause it to keep going. Something has to give, the side of the motor block, the head, and a number of different ways, depending on where the failure was.

Another way an engine can fail through heat is that when the metal expands, the integrity of the metal itself can be compromised, causing the head to crack or warp. The instant result of this is a sudden loss of engine pressure. Without engine pressure you could have your foot on the gas pedal and only go five miles and hour. You may get lucky on occasion, and only blow a head gasket, or an engine plug. Gaskets and plugs are designed to blow if there is too much heat and pressure, but that doesn’t mean that you have done irreparable damage Aluminum heads are especially prone to cracking and warping because they expand a lot faster than as iron cast one.

What can you do to prevent this from happening? While not all engine failure is caused by neglect, you have got to do regular checks, monthly routines, and periodic flushes. This means things like changing spark plugs, wires, and other electrical components on a regular basis. Change and replace filters and motor oil at least according to the minimum requirements by the manufacturer, or more often depending on usage. Flush out fuel systems, brake lines, coolant systems at least once a year. Check your vehicles motor often, maybe at the same time fluid levels are monitored, to see if there are any leaks in hoses, loose belts, or anything else that is out of place. Also make sure that these belts and hoses are still in good working condition, and replace if necessary. Always change out worn belts and hoses all at the same time. If one belt looks worn and needs to be replaced, chances are the other belts may be as well – don’t let looks deceive you.

There are many people out there that are unable to do this all themselves. Whether being hurt in an accident, or an older person, or even if someone that isn’t mechanically inclined, it still needs to get done. There are several different vehicle services available and many you could find locally. Some offer specialized services, like engine coolant, oil and lubrication specialists. These businesses will check and replace fluids, change filters, as well as many others. Usually they aren’t a repair shop so they don’t replace hoses belts and the like, but they do check these sometimes as well, and can tell you if something does need replacement.

There are other car specialists that do engine, coolant and heating system flushes, as well as transmissions. Generally, vehicle repair shops are equipped to handle engine and performance issues. They can replace spark plugs, belts, as well as a number of other things.
