Uh. No? And I just said that you can't describe evolution mathematically, which is why it can't be proved. You can describe certain mechanisms that make up evolution, but not evolution.

Levonorgestrel 150µg and Ethinyloestradiol 30µg :)

I'm surprised there isn't a generic version of Yaz :/

Not really. "Prove" in a scientific context means describe mathematically. You can describe the progression of genes and the physical mechanisms of evolution mathematically, but you can't describe evolution as a whole mathematically. "Prove", in this context, is therefore a meaningless...

I'm on monofeme. ~$25 for four months. Why are your pills so expensive :/

Evolution is Not Just a Theory: home

Or you can just skip the sugar pills and have your period when you want, which is what I do (though this requires a monophasic pill). I haven't had a period/withdrawal bleed for almost a year.

There are some biologists who don't believe in evolution. Point? Also, check your definition of the word "theory" in this context. That is utterly incorrect, actually - in dogs and wolves, and in apes like chimpanzees, being a leader of the pack involves much more than being big and strong. It...

And you think social constructs aren't a product of evolved structures? Um. Incorrect. Evolutionary psychology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Sociobiology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

That is what I am assuming, because we are here. Perhaps there is another universe (I'm not against multi-verses; they're certainly plausible in a quantum sense) where the laws were different (though that in itself is a non-sensical proposition because if they were, the universe wouldn't exist...

Interesting article on why the Pill was created to emulate natural cycles (for religious reasons, not medical ones, if anyone's interested) and the possible health risks associated with emulating a "natural cycle" (12 periods a year, approx 400 a lifetime, being actually unatural)...

Yes, dear, it's called evolution. Most sophisticated animal societies (i.e. great apes, wolves, etc) have some form of evolved morality - these societies couldn't exist without them. Our morality is just even more sophisticated, defined and refined.

Um. You can't prove a negative.

Yep, sure does.

OOo! I must be thinking of the finished copies post-marking. :p

You're getting it hard-bound, right?

There are crackpots of all trades (like GPs who don't believe in vaccinations). Considering acupuncture itself is no better than a placebo, I would have nothing to do with a physio who had anything to do with versions of it. That, however, does not cast aspersions on physio

Eugenics and so-called "social-Darwinism" (the term was deliberately chosen to cast aspersions on Darwin's theory of evolution) are artificial selection, not natural selection. There is a difference.

Well there's those cases (at least 5 I believe) where cervical maniupulation didn't cause a stroke but actually tore the carotid artery, resulting in the patient bleeding out pretty much ASAP. It was detailed in Ben Goldacre's Bad Science.
