It already is. Have you seen what it costs to rent a small apartment there? It's ridiculous. And that's just rent. Have you looked in to child care costs? It's nearly impossible for an average middle class person to make ends meet in that city. You are far better off moving to Texas.

Help my biology here...

"Penguins typically look pretty dumb as they waddle around on snow. But now a bunch of researchers has realised that, actually, they move an awful lot like cars in traffic"

Which is to say.... pretty dumb.

"For them, the possibility is not the question anymore. The question is when are we going to find it, not if."

Okay, we need to take a step back here. That statement ISN'T science. There is no justifiable academic reason to make that statement. Right now we have found only one planet with life. There is no evidence to…

Right, just like Sasquatch.

It's interesting how designs within cultures echo each other. The tail exhaust definitely brings to mind the Soyuz, where it didn't have to. I wonder if that was intentional.

60 billion planets in habitable zone.

It's interesting how this phone is such a "love it or hate it" product. Shows exactly how much of a game changer it really is.

They had to skimp somewhere. They also included pretty lack luster cameras. But 16 gigs really is quite a bit of storage, most people could probably live in that area. Remember, no iPhone has EVER had expandable storage.

It is a $200 phone. They had to cut corners somewhere. There are plenty of great camera phones out there. If you particularly need a stellar camera on your phone you should look elsewhere.

That bucket pours from both ends. There are countless atheists that bemoan the bigotry of Christians, but then actively work and support efforts to stifle personal expression of faith. For example, every year the ACLU sues a new bunch of small churches for putting up Christmas decorations in public places. Christmas…

Gawd, no.

Would be great... except people can screw up just about anything.

There are a number of theories, but density is certainly one of them. Notice how important cities are in world religions. Another is wide spread literacy. A religion wouldn't last two generations without being written down and having something to go back to settle disagreements.

Most other religions wouldn't really work that way. The Hellenistic Religions (plural) weren't really as doctrinal as people believe. They were really more like cooking a gumbo. Take a little of this and a little of that and if you want to throw some of that in, go ahead.

Lauging? Na, their doing finger calisthenics and warming up their key boards.

I thought the same basic thing, but the time line (~5000 years in 90 sconds) doesn't allow for that kind of detail.

You have a view of "Religion" that is too limited. You are right that Budhism isn't like one of the Abrahamic religions, but that's like saying Oranges aren't fruits because they aren't grown on bushes like rasberries.

1) non-religious is not necessarily atheism.

2) Atheism has nothing to do with this map

First of all, it's not really political correctness driving this chart, particularly with regard to the KJV. It's just wrong data.
