Real funny one there mathmite.

I don't know about 'giving up land', that seems quite odd to me... but the general concept where aboriginals have to get their children to go to school, exhibit a decent level of cleanliness etc before being given more things seems sound to me. Furthermore, I have no experience with aboriginal...

For some reason even the synopsis of this film gives me a bit of a chill :) Probably should go see it.

Re: New legal defences The first one I did find quite funny, just because that's what I see as a common defense by men in such a situation.

I believe most models about 'global warming' are based on us having roughly the same level of emitions. Of course we don't know, but we should go off the best science we have available - not random 'maybe' scenarios. Water levels predicted to ride by 6-8m? I'd like to see the exact paper where...

No. It will not lead to the city of sydney being underwater. The city will never be under water... --'

What'd you do this time?

No the earth will warm up then steady out, unless we start producing even more co2. No, but it will be exacerbated.

No, it is something that we can live with. Global warming is not a dooms day scenario.

Well without going into the 'nature' side of the argument, there is the nurture argument that the child that turned gay was exposed to different situations/ideas than the others.

I'd like to point out that the report quoted there is now by no means good research for global warming studies. Yea and slowing it... we can of course take up alternative fuels, I'd love to see Australia become the first place where hybrid electrics are the most common type of car (I doubt it...

Global warming is important, but if I was to prioritise I see hunger, disease etc as being more prominent for us to deal with. I think the earths temperature rising is something we will have to and can live with. I think the amount of money it would cost to stop global warming is far too great...

Come on guys, it was a nice story :o

Ok, exactly and that's the problem. Before God had humans, he didn't have the thing he wanted (thus making him imperfect). A perfect being should have no desires. I'm sure you won't understand me tho. Er no it's not. I said it could just be an unconscious supernatural force, it isn't a...

I didn't say that he 'needed' us, if I was to make such a statement I would say that he wanted us. While of course even within your idea of god, he may not have needed to create us, he obviously wanted it. So God has desires? That means there was something that god didn't have that he did want...

Why would a being perfect in every way require creations? Doesn't it imply, that by creating things, he was not perfect?

Wow, what a terrible analogy. Why did you end it with 'think logically'? You need to revise your analogy completely imo.

People willing to pay for it, let them.

Isn't there also one at westmead for um health science students or something?

Huh? What? I can logically disreguard the claim! My only basis is NOT that I have not personally witnessed it. I believe in history, I did not personally witness those events. My basis for non-belief is the weakness of the evidence. The point of his analogy was to show how it's cool for...
