-_- I am unimpressed that my posts got deleted, I got negged AND received an infraction for expressing an opinion. Give me one reason, you who doesn't like my opinion, why the writers of the bible were not nut jobs? I mean, have you even read it? (I know you have, rhetorical question). It's...

Written my God through the hands of his disciples inspired by the Holy Spirit. Edit: In reality they were probably all just nut jobs, perhaps inspired by a little weed.

Lol, it isn't proof - that would be like saying The LOTR trilogy is proof of Frodo's existence.

Disagree - I'd rather spend my "after-life" in the ground nourishing an apple tree that people won't be punished for eating from, than say, endlessly worshipping God in Heaven...he has such a massive Ego.

Lol. It's cool. Ecclesiastes...yeah, just like the rest of Christianity we, as free-thinking rational agnostic atheists should just ignore it. Cuz it's in the Bible, but nah, it doesn't count. It doesn't sound at all like what we think God is really like, despite being in the Bible! I'm...

So you're saying God created evil so us humans would have free will? I really don't understand why God was so surprised that Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Knowledge; a) he know's everything (can't be surprised if you know it's going to happen), b) he punished the REST OF HUMANITY for the...

Solooooooo's lack of response is why I don't take creationists seriously. One does not have a reasonable and logical answer because it is not reasonable or logical to reject scientifically-supported FACT (evolution) and believe in mere speculation.

I grew up in a Christian church that believed God to be very involved in human life. That's why we prayed so much. The Bible, for example, has tonnes and tonnes of examples of God intervening. Nowadays he/she seems to do nothing. Rather convenient, I think. ... I feel guilty sometimes because...

I do this all the time! In my last exam I lost 4 marks due to stupid, stupid mistakes. What I tend to do is go through the exam at average pace, but leave anything that takes longer than I think is worth it i.e. over 1 minute for a 1 mark question. So I highlight those and move on, until I...

White tea tastes heavenly: Silver Needles is the bomb. No sugar or other additives, of course.

I'm inclined to say no, but I cannot be 100% sure, just like I can't be 100% sure that fairies don't exist or that Russell's teapot in space doesn't exist or that the Flying Spaghetti Monster doesn't exist. As an ex-Christian, I can say that it is very difficult to grasp that God probably...

I had this issue in high school yr11-12. I would just fail to study entirely, except the night before the exam (which just doesn't work the way you wish it would), and I'd spend too much time on fb (don't we all). That was 3 years ago. Now, I've got waaaaay more motivation cuz I don't want to...

lol just pointing out the common assumption people make!

+1 But I'd argue that a small amount of it isn't pointless; there are some important concepts taught in yr 11 like diffusion-osmosis, deets on body systems etc., but then again they could condense that stuff into 1 week's worth of class time and save everyone the hassle of an entire. fucking. year.

Ba dum tss Apparently if you do engineering that makes you a guy.

I think it seems pretty clear that you should stick with 3 unit till the end of prelim and decide whether to drop then - last thing you want is to drop now and wish you hadn't later on. Don't drop to general, btw, your boredom will be 1000x worse. Try and stick with 3 unit but if not, then 2...

Look, if you're going to go flouting all these positive values you claim originate from the Bible, it's only fair to own the terrible shit as well i.e. killing homosexual and other racist, hateful, sexist and intolerant barbaric ideas.

Did you graduate from high school? Do you know what theory means in SCIENCE? The theory of evolution is not some made up idea with no evidence to back it up like intelligent design; intelligent design in scientific standards is more like a hypothesis, EVOLUTION is a theory: Theory A...

It doesn't get any harder than compound interest.

When I was doing the HSC, a student managed atar 97, and that was with a subject combo similar to yours, except without the 3 unit maths. They were an all-rounder, also. So, get 90+ in all your subjects and you're set. =]
