Conspiracy.

I was not talking about evolution, per se. I was talking about consciousness, primarily. You seem like you just want to disagree but you didn't understand my point.

You can make a robot but it is not conscious. If you wait and the robot achieves consciousness spontaneously, evolutionary theories of the origins of consciousness gain plausibility. If, however, you wait but your robot does not achieve consciousness until you take specific actions—which you knew, beforehand, would…

Is it so hard to just say "I don't know?" That would have been much more useful and a lot more correct than these theories. Science does not know what consciousness is until it endows the property upon something which was previously non-living…proving Intelligent Design in the process. Good luck.

Thumbs up for the "bonus facts." Hopefully, this will become a new standard in writing—for the web, at least.

"Dead end?" Pun intended?

This is worthy of a grand "SO WHAT!!??"

Ha, ha. They know what transparency means. They were hoping that we didn't know.

"Explaining" is science's pathological precursor to destroying things.

Cable boxes seem to be getting worse rather than better. My first DVR was from Dish Network and it was awesome. That was years ago. You'd think the technology would have improved but, no. I had to downgrade to Comcast and their DVRs are the pits. They sometimes don't record your shows. Series recordings…

It is misleading to say the "beads came from space." The stones from which they have been fashioned may have fallen to earth as a meteorite but they weren't "beads" until someone made beads out of a stone that they found. Keep selling that "life on other planets" fantasy, though.

How about we all agree that, provided the means do not outweigh the ends, one must do whatever one has to do to expose (and, hopefully, correct) injustice? That would mean that while Snowden may have, technically, "stolen" documents he did it to expose a much greater crime. That being the case we should say…

If they're publicly admitting to area 51, it's because they're up to Area 57.

In what way did I "impose" my religion when I neither recommended it nor even stated what it is. "Narrow-mindedness?" In what way is "You atheists" fundamentally different from "Atheists?" You seem like you just want to disagree with me. These "newly founded ideas" to which you refer are nothing more than atheist…

The pyramids were built by the Nephilim—from the Bible. There is no way the Egyptians could have built it. They found the pyramids, abandoned, and proceeded to build a culture around them. Science—mainstream science—will not admit this because it does, effectively, disprove evolution. Furthermore, if the Nephilim…

So, Africa has no history?

Everything seems like a good idea until you build it and find out why it's a bad idea.

The solution is simple. Helicopters take everyone to the roof and they take the stairs down to whatever floor they want.

This is exactly why I never download or play "free to play" games or games with "in-app purchases." This is also why all of gaming is going to hell in a hand basket. I hope this turns out to be a fad, like $9.99/min party lines. Remember those? Yeah, that's my point.

So when those responsible for enforcing the law, break the law, don't they become unqualified for their jobs?
