  1. That Bruce Lee scenario is such a lovely romantic theory in writing .....unfortunately its not realistic in the real world......as a schoolkid i never started fights but being quite a big lad i would get hassle from older stronger kids.......i wouldnt back down so more often that not got the shit kicked out of me every other day
  2. Looks like that wet see though sort
  3. Stood infront of a man your confident of killing means you probably shouldnt be stood infront of him regardless......if i was that confident that i actually thought id kill him then id know i was bullying....so yes walking away would still be true to yourself i guess. What i meant by being true to yourself is something we see all the time....people whos heart is not really in it they just dont want to back down or lose face.....they get backed into a corner they would never of found themself in had they said from the off " its not for me ".....both people lose out for different reasons but
  4. A lab experiment first perfromed in 1880 which subjected an isolated strain of E.coli to heat (a change in environment) in an effort to force an adaptation to a new environment has resulted in new strains to develop, one of which has the ability to grow on citric acid. The original strain did not have this ability. Along a similar line, bacteria has evolved antibiotic resistance. This is proof that population gene pools adapt to environmental changes. That is evolution. You can't just expect to throw a dog into the sea and watch it grow fins and gills, that's not evolution. I'll ch
  5. But the word " observe " is a word science uses to describe itself.....................yet nobody can see millions of years ago ????.....................people who believe in God and the bible are constantly having it rammed down their throats you cant see ( observe ) God so its blind faith.................well you cant see ( observe ) science either so is science blind faith also..................different faith different book.....still faith only though.......no ?

  7. Did they change kind ? or are they still lizards ?............if they didnt change kind then surely thats adaptation and not evolution ?
  8. true wilf I know a lot of people like that ,me included that when the temper does hit boiling point there no return . you haven't got to be big+tough to hit somebody on the back of the head with a iron bar , or pull a trigger its called holding a grudge and I do . I had real bad feeling for a bloke who lives by me, we had near set to in country lane. his mrs calmed it down just about . couldn't get the c**t out of my head for 14 months , all I wanted to kick his balls through his arse and rearrange his face .It was only my wife stopping me, because she said if you attack him the
  9. But evolution has been witnessed, speciation has been observed in nature and in laboratory experiments! It's an undeniable FACT that biological populations adapt their genetics to better suit their environment. That has been witnessed, that is evolution! The theory of common descent, that all life on Earth has evolved from a common ancestor has not been witnessed and yet it has MUCH supporting evidence. To say that the beliefe that god created us all in our current form has no less evidence than theory of common descent I find ridiculous in light of what science has discovered. I could ree

    Thankyou for explaining it RemyBolt..........another few reads and i,ll get it but from what i can get my head round so far makes for interesting reading certainly worth thinking about

    " The only element of Evolution that Christians should have a problem with is in application to humans " What do you mean with that line RemyBolt ? I can be a bit slow sometimes so for what i found a very good and interesting post it would be a shame not to understand all of it ....if you wouldnt mind like ?
  12. Oh sorry was it a term of endearment? For a minute I thought you were having a pop? If i actually knew what it was we was talking about id answer your questions............i dont..........so i wont
  13. Thats right i wasnt talking about you hence i chose the word " folk ".......i wasnt making a joke of science i respect it and what we can learn from it....i find the language it uses amusing in terms of how it shapes certain words to suit.....as an example of one that amuses me .....the word " observe "......which if im not wrong is used in the standard description of what science essentially is......" the practical activity encompassing the systematic study of the physical and natural world through OBSERVATION and experiment ".................yet there is no human being alive that can give us
  14. Nice little start for a youngster ....chuck a little bit of salt in for the Mollies .....hope it keeps his interest
  15. " Newcastle Crown Court heard they cut the dead victims stomach and planned to eat his liver,but did not do so ".....well why not ?..................too dry ? wrong texture ? no clean forks ?..............what put them off ? Or is it maybe the usual shock horror sensationalist headlines......................the nonce got what nonces get in prisons the world over whats new.
  16. Nice bit of news to start the day......... all the best of health luck and happiness Tomo
  17. Whether its right or wrong friendships for me are possibly the most important relationships we have in life as its the ones we choose to have with our own mind and our own understanding of people....we dont choose family so thats a different kind of loyalty but who we choose to share friendships with is down to us if over time we dont weed out the bad we cant suddenly turn round and start moaning when a friend is disloyal as we chose them !.....For me friendship is the purest relationship there is id trust friends before family any day of the week...........as Socks said fighting is fun the re
  18. So if we dont like options a,b and c..... we can call option d a fact because we like that more than the others........and thats not blind faith ....i love it ......if only life was actually like that ! I didn't say that, I was explaining why some people are miss lead in what they term facts. But you crack on trivialising mainstream science as "what people like", lol. Science isn't a mindless popularity contest. Like I said, ridicule all of science, evolution isn't unique in how it has become mainstream. I guess gravity is caused by the strong arm of invisible gnomes pulling? Equally credible
  19. Not too sure as i dont really go in for winding up men or women.....you ?

  21. jimmy tibbs was in his corner. " in his corner " ( cutman )......he,s not his trainer and never will be
  22. Rubbish compared to who ?........Sport is about levels we could say Stoke City are rubbish compare to Barcelona but compared to Preston North End they are fantastic so who you comparing England to ? Gnasher the comparison king I would make a comparison to you......only i dont pay a blind bit of notice to who you are or what you say
  23. On the general scale of things defending your pals in a physical way is just a tiny part of loyalty that as Wilf said usually subsides as you get older and move onto different things.......what often comes later on when theres a bit more than just skin to be lost is when the true test of loyalty shows itself..............just my opinion like.

    I bet your a bundle of fun to stand and have a pint with. " What did you think of the game last night Paulus ? " " Hold on a minute Gnasher let me consult the official match report "
  25. To me science seems to have a language all of its own that doesnt apply to anything else......when the reality of a scientific fact is something that " probably happened " it amuses me when you hear somebody call folk blinkered and brainwashed for believing in God....not to mention ignorant Personally i cant see why God and science cant co - exist....i dont see why its not feasible to believe God created everything to evolve into what it is today knowing that the best way to make life was to create something and then let it shape itself over billions of years.....To me the Bible dont need
