According to my friend, neither. the very first chicken hatched from its egg and grew to maturity, then traveled back in time and laid its own egg.
From an evolutionary point of view, probably the egg.

According to the old Greek philosopher Plato, both the chicken and the egg have existed and will exist for all eternity in the ideal world, while they have only existed in the material world for as long, as humens have recognised their existance.
That doesn't solve the puzzle of which came first, though.

FAIL! Humans did not evolve from monkeys (by God, the Earth really MUST be powered by Darwin turning around in his grave), but rather humans and modern monkeys share the same ancestor, only the smarter ones stayed at the treees and became monkeys of today ;D So basically no humans will never evolve from the modern monkeys, because when the common ancestor split, the two species are walking a different evolutionary path, which leads to different ways.

That doesn't keep him from being right. Though badly worded, he basically said it right. About 5 million years ago, there was some ecological impetus for our common ancestors to favor different diets, hunting tactics, behavior, or what have you. Over those 5 million years, those small differences have amplified, ultimately creating separate populations that can no longer create viable offspring. In other words, they had become separate species: humans and chimpanzees.

I think evolution and all of science works just fine with any religion. Science is the what and how and religion is the why and who.
evolution is a big hoax. the creater of the evolution theoryeven said so him self on his deathbed that he made it all up. and no evolution does not go with every religion oesnt go with my religion.

i believe that God created the world in 7 days but then i get confused becuz in the bible it says that one day to God is like a thousand years.
but i unno if im suppose to take that litterally or not. theres lots of metaphoric stuff in that book lol.
when he created us he put us in charge of all the animals..
ALL the animals, dinos to mice.
so we have been here since the beginning of time..
which i believe is only like 6000 years.
but yah so the whole big bang thing doesnt cut it for me becuz God was there before anything...there was just darkness.
Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God created the light....."
i mean....i am still so clueless with this whole thing...i have a gazillion questions that i would love to have answered...

Actually, what I was saying is that there might be a God. A God who was there before the creation of the universe (the darkness) and then made it in a flash, otherwise known as the Big Bang (God created the light).
evolution is a big hoax. the creater of the evolution theoryeven said so him self on his deathbed that he made it all up. and no evolution does not go with every religion oesnt go with my religion.
Hmm, talking about hoaxes, are we? Try this on for size:
"A widespread rumor circulated -- facilitated by an evangelist by the name of Lady Hope who preached in Downe during the last years of Darwins life -- that on his deathbed Darwin renounced evolution and declared himself a Christian. This story, totally contradictory to the nature of the man himself, is a falsehood, denied by his daughter Henrietta and those who knew him best and who were actually at his bedside during his last weeks. Darwin's last words, spoken to his wife Emma, were in actuality, 'I am not in the least afraid to die.'"

Wasn't exactly an attack... it was more a defense. Basically, what he just said was completely wrong; Darwin did not refute evolutionary theory on his death bed. He has yet to make a counter riposte.
In regards to what you're saying: well, I'm not much for the literal interpretation of the Bible, because no one has ever said that the Bible was God's exact words. In fact, even Bible literalists would have to admit that only a very small section of the Bible is supposed to be God's exact words: the parts where God is actually quoted. What I'm saying is that among all the creation myths in the world, the Christian one is actually one of the least plausible, but still works with science if taken not-quite-literally. Which was probably the intention anyway. Genesis was written down by someone a long time ago, mostly to teach us other life lessons, not to tell us exactly how God said the world was created. So I take anything in the Bible with a grain of salt, remembering to look at the bigger picture and not the strange little things it says.

because...we dont really know what is right...all creation/evolution "myths" are not very plausible....it just depends on what u believe...

I see some problems with this: one is the supposition that evolution cannot be seen as occurring within a humans life span, in other words not in the past. It can be: one recent study showed that fruit flies subjected to high levels of stress and danger on a regular basis develop spiny skin and become much larger within a few generations.
Another is the Debate Terms section. My question to you is: would you trust something a friend told you and could show you if you wanted to see if it was true, or something a friend told you that had come out of a book around 2500 years old and couldn't show you for the life of him? That's the fundamental problem with "all facts are interpreted".
Also, here's a little thing about carbon dating, which many fundamentalists choose not to believe. This question may seem unrelated, but bear with me: Do you believe in atomic theory?

Do you believe that those are run through the breakdown of Uranium into Lead?
If you do, it also probably means you understand what a half-life is. If you understand that, then it's hard to argue with U-235 deposits that are almost entirely lead in the older sections of the Earth's crust because of it's stupendous age.

Correct me if i'm wrong but, when something evolved into something else, dosen't the thing it evolved from become extinct. after all a big part of evolution is adapting to environments and changes in things. We still have apes?
Issitheus
05-19-2008, 10:10 PM
Oh Chii of small mind. While humans are believed to be descended from apes, they would have evolved from a certain species and for certain reasons, such as location. A species evolves to better reproduce and survive. Apes are not all one species and not all of them need to evolve as drastically as our predecessors did.
now heres a question for you hwo do you know that monkeys or apes evolved into humans? how do you know that the big bang really happened? where you there to see it? did you see the monkey transforn into people? do you know anyone that has seen any of those?

ok when those fruit flies got bigger and got spikes on their skin when exposed to stress, thats called "adapting"..
its still a fly...
like when a mexican moves to canada they are
frozen at first but then adapts to the cold..haha.
another example is the seahorse that ca change its sex...
so that it is impossible to not find a mate...
thats not evolving thats adapting..
..
Now chii...
when you said.."did u see evolution happen?" they could have raped u there..
becuz..did u see
God create earth?
No..
but thats why we have faith.
When scientists found sone tools in a cave thousands of years ago they didnt go. "O AN EXPLOSION MADE THESE!"
they knew they were designed by early humans..
EVERYONE can recognize design..
In a similar way, one would never look at the Great Wall of China, the U.S. Capitol building in Washington D.C., or the Sydney Opera House in Australia and conclude that such structures were formed after explosions in a brick factory.
Neither would anyone believe that the presidents? heads on Mt. Rushmore were the products of millions of years of erosion......
We can recognize design, the evidence of the outworkings of intelligence. We see man-made objects all around us?cars, airplanes, computers, stereos, houses, appliances, and so on. And yet, at no time would anyone ever suggest that such objects were just the products of time and chance.
Design is everywhere..... It
would never enter our minds that metal, left to itself, would eventually form into engines, transmissions, wheels, and all the other intricate parts needed to produce an automobile.....
(the next text is taken from Ken Ham)
Living Things Show Evidence of Design!
The late Isaac Asimov, an ardent anti-creationist, declared, ?In man is a three-pound brain which, as far as we know, is the most complex and orderly arrangement of matter in the universe.?5 It is much more complex than the most complicated computer ever built. Wouldn?t it be logical to assume that if man?s highly intelligent brain designed the computer, then the human brain was also the product of design?
Scientists who reject the concept of a Creator God agree that all living things exhibit evidence of design. In essence, they accept the design argument of Paley, but not Paley?s Designer. For example, Dr. Michael Denton, a non-Christian medical doctor and scientist with a doctorate in molecular biology, concludes:
It is the sheer universality of perfection, the fact that everywhere we look, to whatever depth we look, we find an elegance and ingenuity of an absolutely transcending quality, which so mitigates against the idea of chance. Alongside the level of ingenuity and complexity exhibited by the molecular machinery of life, even our most advanced artifacts appear clumsy. We feel humbled, as neolithic man would in the presence of twentiethcentury technology. It would be an illusion to think that what we are aware of at present is any more than a fraction of the full extent of biological design. In practically every field of fundamental biological research ever-increasing levels of design and complexity are being revealed at an ever-accelerating rate.6
Dr. Richard Dawkins, holder of the Charles Simonyi Chair of Public Understanding of Science at Oxford University, has become one of the world?s leading evolutionist spokespersons. His fame has come as the result of the publication of books, including The Blind Watchmaker, which defend modern evolutionary theory and claim to refute once and for all the notion of a Creator God. He said, ?We have seen that living things are too improbable and too beautifully ?designed? to have come into existence by chance.?7
There is no doubt that even the most ardent atheist concedes that design is evident in the animals and plants that inhabit our planet. If Dawkins rejects ?chance? in design, what does he put in place of ?chance? if he does not accept a Creator God?
Who?or What?Is the Designer Then?
Design obviously implies a designer. To a Christian, the design we see all around us is totally consistent with the Bible?s explanation: ?In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth? (Genesis 1:1), and ?For by him [Jesus Christ] all things were created that are in heaven and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through him and for him? (Colossians 1:16).
However, evolutionists like Richard Dawkins, who admit the design in living things, reject the idea of any kind of a Designer/God. In reference to Paley, Dawkins states:
Paley?s argument is made with passionate sincerity and is informed by the best biological scholarship of his day, but it is wrong, gloriously and utterly wrong. The analogy between telescope and eye, between watch and living organism, is false.8
Why? It is because Dawkins attributes the design to what he calls ?blind forces of physics? and the processes of natural selection. Dawkins writes:
All appearance to the contrary, the only watchmaker in nature is the blind forces of physics, albeit deployed in a very special way. A true watchmaker has foresight: he designs his cogs and springs, and plans their interconnections, with future purpose in his mind?s eye. Natural selection, the blind, unconscious, automatic process which Darwin discovered, and which we now know is the explanation for the existence and apparently purposeful form of all life, has no purpose in mind. It has no mind and no mind?s eye. It does not plan for the future. It has no vision, no foresight, no sight at all. If it can be said to play the role of watchmaker in nature, it is the blind watchmaker [emphasis added].9
Dawkins does, however, concede that ?the more statistically improbable a thing is, the less can we believe that it just happened by blind chance. Superficially the obvious alternative to chance is an Intelligent Designer.?10
Nonetheless, he rejects the idea of an ?Intelligent Designer? and instead offers this ?answer?:
The answer, Darwin?s answer, is by gradual, step-by-step transformations from simple beginnings, from primordial entities sufficiently simple to have come into existence by chance. Each successive change in the gradual evolutionary process was simple enough, relative to its predecessor, to have arisen by chance. But the whole sequence of cumulative steps constitutes anything but a chance process, when you consider the complexity of the final end product relative to the original starting point. The cumulative process is directed by nonrandom survival. The purpose of this chapter is to demonstrate the power of this cumulative selection as a fundamentally nonrandom process.11
Basically, then, Dawkins is doing nothing more than insisting that natural selection12 and mutations13 together provide the mechanism for the evolutionary process. He believes these processes are nonrandom and directed. In reality, this is just a sophisticated way of saying that evolution is itself the designer.

I read the whole thing, it was indeed a thought-provoking piece of writing. :) Not being a man of faith, can't say I totally believe, but it makes a lot of sense on various levels in the context of religion.
When it comes to evolution, it really has more to do with genetics. When humans procreate, they pass on their traits to their children. Humans who are stronger or smarter than most will live longer and consequentially have more children, and hence create humans that are stronger or smarter than most. Over many generations, these overall genetic improvements would just become more and more evident, as these children continued to procreate, etc. It may be a long, LONG process, but in the context of modern genetics, it's hard to argue with. So, until modern genetics is completely disproved, my belief is that evolution is just something that happens. :-\

Yeah, I see what you mean, actually, and you're right about the stronger thing (the 2-foot height difference was an interesting fact)...I blame our poor immune systems and genetic deficiencies on society today. We're all becoming too weak, being so reliant on medicinal technology and whatnot. I'm sure early humans' immune systems could take plenty more than ours, because they didn't have medicine to fight off disease for them.

humans load themselves up today with so much meds and shots that when a common cold hits there bodies are screwed..

our dog has never got a shot or anything

now we got another dog that gets shots regularly, (bought this one, it was exspensive, the other dog is a mutt!) and it gets sick from eating a blade of grass lmao...

Well, that guy you quoted... Ken Ham: he has points, but they're based on a shakey knowledge of evolution. He says that "chance" is what drives evolution, but you've been reading this thread, that's obviously not how it works.
When it comes to evolution, it really has more to do with genetics. When humans procreate, they pass on their traits to their children. Humans who are stronger or smarter than most will live longer and consequentially have more children, and hence create humans that are stronger or smarter than most.

So, until modern genetics is completely disproved, my belief is that evolution is just something that happens. :-\
It's not chance, it's how well adapted you are. The build up of adaptations (as Nyuu was pointing out) over multiple generations moves towards speciation.
In terms of humans getting weaker: yes, we are getting smarter and weaker. In fact, these two traits are in direct proportion to each other. Our brain takes 30% of the blood coming out of our hearts. Our brains are some of the largest in the animal kingdom in proportion to our body size. This large brain has made up for our lack of physical prowess, and as we focus more and more on technology and development, it will continue to accentuate.
Oh, and in terms of height? Not as far as I know... the healthiest nations in the world (Iceland, Norway, Sweden) also have the highest average height. And average height worldwide has been growning steadily from at least 1700. This is probably due to improving health care.

Wanna check where you stand at "The evolutionary timeline"?
Quite generalised but almost correct.
Eye Colour:
Brown - Oldest colour in "the pallette"
Blue - Oldest along with brown. Yet the gene is recessive so it gets overwhelmed by brown.
Green - Mutation of brown - more recent.
Blue-green - A mutation of green and blue. Quite rare. Most recent.
Hair colour:
Black - Usually comes with brown eyes, oldest Homo Sapiens hair colour.
Blond - Not originally a Homo Sapiens colour, but of the Neanderthal. Oldest.
Brown/Red - Mutations of brown, more recent.
Skin colour:
NO difference
Ofcourse that has no impact in real-life performance of somebody, but it just might be fun to know from when do your genes come.
And about the chicken and the egg... Chuck came first. And thats the END of it.

I really don't know, and I don't care all that much whether homosexuality is genetic or an individual choice, I'll just wait until science and the Genome Project finally come up with some answers.
There might be some evidence to suggest that homosexuality is natural and genetic, though: The Earth is really a giant living organism all on its own; its inhabitants often tend to actually change and adapt in accordance with what benefits the Earth as a whole, as that in turn benefits its inhabitants. It is becoming overwhelmed with the overflowing human population. Due to the fact that there are statistically more gays today than there ever has been, it can be determined that humans are actually gay more frequently as the Earth's way of population control.
It's really only a theory, and I only heard about this today, but I think it makes a good deal of sense.

It may be me, who are not into all the nuances of the English language, but in my opinion, calling someone 'straight' compared to others, implies that the first ones are as the should be, while the latter is not.
Even if a degrading term becomes widely used, it is still degrading, valuing some above others.

There hasn't been an increase in respiratory problems and asthma in the last few decades. In fact the Candian government enjoys paying for treatment of imaginary asthma. Public transit is a money grab - use the municipal gas because the government makes more off of that then the taxes on gasoline at public pumps. There's a whole line-up of money grabbing techniques the goverment uses by promoting global warming.

I'll get back to the homosexual topic, though the thread has rapidly moved on.
Chii, couldn't you at least try to write something that tends towards correct English? It can be quite difficult to sort out any meaning of your ramblings, when there is not even the slightes sign of punctuation, though I'm sure there is a meaning.
yes, thats one reason and it's the way I think, I may think gays aren't people and you think they are. You think evolution is the right way and I dont think it's the right way. Any more questions I need to awnser?
(I've tried to punctuate it, so that it is at least clear what I'm responding to.)
Well, would you mind starting out by answering my quetion?
As far is I can gather, you feel stalked by homosexuals and I get a feeling that there are also some religious motivation. But do you have some general reasons for considering homosexuals non-human or is it just based on religious dogma and bad experiences with a few individual members of the group called homosexuals.

lol... Global warming is a money scam now :P
It may be a money scam, but it is still reality. There are no way that you can deny that the temperature level has risen and there are more extreme weather now than earlier. The question is not whether global warming and climate changes are there, but what role we play in it.
Because the goverment wants people to rely less on fossil fuels... That's why we should use hybrids.
There are also the aspect of energy efficiency. as far as i remember, about 80% of the energy produced in a modern combustion engine is wasted on among other things heat and friction. The newest electric test-vehicles climb and energy efficiency of more the 80% (meaning less than 20% wasted). Right now, they're still to expensive and shortranged (the best I've heard of for a car comparable to those driving around i Scandinavia is about 200 km. on a fully loaded battery).
Secondly, only a fraction of the crude oil are actually suited for combustion engines, meaning that large amounts has to be used for other purposes. And since the oil deposits are geogriphically concentrated, it is good for any country not self-supplying to lessen it's depandency, just as it is with all other ressources.
Wind powered generators are a hoax - they're no better for the environment than coal.
I doubt that claim. From what I have heard, mining, transporting and storing the coal, produces far more polution than the entire process of creating, transporting, building, running and recycling af windmill per MWh produced. And then I've not included the burning of the coal at all.
Coal are not pure carbon. That means, that when you burn coal, you burn other substances like sulfur too and leaves considerable amounts of waste too, depending on the quality of the coal.
There hasn't been an increase in respiratory problems and asthma in the last few decades.
That's probably true, if looking only at the asthma connected to burning of fossil fuel, since there are some degree of inverse connection between the efficiency and the amount of waste products.
I don't know that much about Canada, but in Denmark, there are a clear increase in the respiratory prolems, but as far as research can tell, they are due to chemical polution rather than particle pollution from coal and oil. Maybe because we have never realy been an industial country. Took the leap from agricultural to informationbased quite fast.
Public transit is a money grab - use the municipal gas because the government makes more off of that then the taxes on gasoline at public pumps. There's a whole line-up of money grabbing techniques the goverment uses by promoting global warming.
In my oppinion, that sounds more like politicized than actual facts.
On the other hand, I agree with you, that the CO2-debate seems rather hyped. I think it is only a fraction of the problem, fx. are methane a much more potent greenhous gas and the relative emission have increased much more than CO2. probably does a lot of other factors such as the cycles of the sun influence, maybe even more than the greenhouse gasses. Sadly, we just can't do anything about that, so therefore, we have to work the factors we can ie. the greenhouse gas emissions among other things.

I will advice that you don't inhale the smoke when you burn plastic. Burning plastic gives off large amouts of CO (not CO2), which sticks in the lungs, reducing the ability to add oxygen to the blood.
1337uvis
05-24-2008, 07:02 PM
Actually it doesn't stick i nthe lungs, rather it gets into your blood and joins very quickly and VERY VERY strongly with hemoglobin (the thing that actually transfers oxygen) and then there is less space for oxygen, so if you breathe Co for too long... you'll just suffocate without even knowing that. And the bond between CO and hemoglobin forms very strongly so it only breaks after more than 24 hours.

Lots of posts since I was last on here, lots of controversy...I think I may have started the global warming debate along with Chii, didn't I? :) 'Kay, here's my two cents, as I'm sure you'd love to hear them.
Global warming: Might be a huge money making scam in some respects, but it is an exponentially increasing problem and deserves almost the amount of attention it gets, if not more. (I bought An Inconvenient Truth.) It's just that when the people who want to actually help the environment think of ways to make a positive difference, there are always the people around them, "smart" and powerful businessmen who know how to make money, who step in and find ways to exploit it for all it's worth. The hybrid car being a good example, but then again, all of that research and new technology and whatnot must be expensive.
As for Chii and his incessant hate-mongering: Although I may disagree with him with such entirety that it makes my face hurt, I find something oddly charming about his childish ignorance. I just can't bring myself to hate him.

1337uvis

now, you see, a volcano erupts well at most once a year, and then over the next year nature cleans itself up (trees use co2 and emit oxygen) yet the human civilization is a constant supply of co2 and even if it were less, but because of its uninteruptidness (damn hard word) nature can't keep up and there is a buildup of co2. Add a volcano eruption and WOW!
Ionzorg
05-25-2008, 06:34 AM
That's true, but it hardly seems like much of a CO2 addition (even if is constantly occurring) if what Nyuu said is true. But then, of course, volcanoes also release a lot of nutrients through volcanic rock, allowing a great many plants and trees to grow in the then fertilized soil. I'll have to look into that...I need confirmation on this most intriguing fact.

Okay, through the power of the internet I have reached a viable conclusion:

Estonia has placed an greenhous gas emission tax on cattle, because of the massive amounts herefrom.
One cow produces approximately 0,091656978 tons methane and 0,876576 tons CO2 per year. And cud-chewing animals are responsible responsible for 15-25% of all greenhouse gas emissions.
In New Zealand, cattle alone are responsible for 90% of the country's methane emissions and 43% of it's total emissions - according to local authorities.
---All this according to a danish newspaper.---
I suspect them for messing up the the numbers, including all cud-chewers.
The emissions from farming is so large, that EU could cut 0,9% of it's emission, by cutting it's production of meat by 9%.
---this according to a weekly paper published by the engineers's union---

And also when tsunami's or hurricanes strike they wipe out mass amounts of trees which turn CO2 into oxygen. But when these trees get destroyed they turn into carbon when they decompose..
so really nature release WAY more carbon then humans....

Alright, alright, you make a good point...How 'bout we settle for "No one really knows for sure whether humans make more of an impact on the atmosphere than the entirety of nature put together, because that would be a ridiculous thing to measure,"?
Although, to be sure, that 27 billion additional tonnes (volcanic activity apparently only produces 1/1800th of that, to put the amount in perspective) to the Earth's yearly cycles must make some kind of difference...Nature's balance is, after all, fairly delicate.

That may well be, it would indeed serve their agenda. But try to think of it like a bathtub that can only let out a certain amount water per second. If you increase the amounts just a little, the water will rise and eventually run over.
It may be, that humans contribute only little to the gathered emission, but we are the ones making the increases.

Yeah, I'm on the same page there...Like, I'm all for recycling and cutting back on emissions and alternative energy and whatnot, but when people start getting bulldozed over after chaining themselves to trees, I think that's crossing the line from "conscientiousness" to "stupidity".

Well after catching up on the 'Bible Fight' or what ever you want to call it. I guess that I could interject with an opinion. The chicken came before the egg because the creature that evolved into the chicken would give birth to it's offspring in a membrane in which overtime developed into the egg. And as for the whole 'green' subject. Personally I think the world aint much but it is all we got, but I say **** the Alaska fanatics. Just go get the oil. The animals are already dying and they are suffering right now. Why not just put them in zoos or just put them out of their misery.

To START (haven't been on this thread for a while) it isn't religion that I have a problem with. Not in the least, in fact I'm considering converting to Buddhism. The problem is that in this country, people are confusing their religious beliefs with science. Whatever can be said about science, it is a fact that it has many times the evidence for it's validity than creationism. So basically, creationists are attempting to reverse progress; they are the reactionaries on the political scale. And that's almost never a good thing, because whatever you say about this country, it HAS become MORE free, MORE equal, and MORE advanced over the past 200 years. Returning to the past is a silly and outdated mode of thought.
The green debate: I just did a powerpoint on the carbon cycle for biology. So I ran into some basic stats:
http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/gmd/ccgg/trends/
This may seem trivial, but it is wise to remember that a seemingly small increase of 2 degrees Fahrenheit in average world temperature would increase sea levels about 10 feet. And check out what a bit MORE would do:
http://pubs.usgs.gov/fs/fs2-00/
The biggest problem is that we are releasing carbon from reservoirs that should remain under cover for around another 1-20 million years: long enough for erosion to expose them. This means that not only are we heating the climate up NOW, we're setting ourselves up for a big drop later on.
Even if you STILL don't believe in humanity's affect on the climate, still consider this: 4 years ago, oil was $30 a barrel in the U.S. It is now well over $100. The CEO of Exxon-Mobil himself stated that "by 2010, 40% of our oil will have to come from sources not yet discovered". (Minor edit: that's the CEO of Conoco, not Exxon, and he includes untapped sources as well). The discovery of new sources peaked in 1960, and the average barrels a day produced by the average oil rig has been going down since 1940. We have reached the end of conventional oil, no matter how you slice it.

you dont actually think that our rising gas prices are becuz of what were doing to the planet?
the rising gas prices are yet again another greed fest.
they say were running out of fuel. but what actually happens, i think, is that they pull out a "limit" and once that "limit" is almost used up they go AAAA were running out of gas. but actually were just using it faster then they can pull it out. i dont believe theres any shortages.
Canada has 5 times as much oil as Iraq. Canada also doesnt refine oil.
So the reason its exspensive here is becuz we mine it. Sell it to the US who refine it, then the US sells it back to us for Bull**** prices so then we have to hike it up to make any $. The states charge more and more becuz of the war in iraq. i believe Bush has put his country at over a trillion dollars in debt due to the war. (i might be mistaken there so correct me if i am) so the country HAS to raise prices on everything. now im not blamin it all on the states becuz we woldnt have to hike the price either. Its all greed tho. Another thing is the whole ethanol thing which spikes food costs and gas costs, but thats a whole different subject.

You didn't read the National Geographic articles. Though some of this current crisis CAN be attributed to greed, the statistical evidence shows that this greed has been exaggerated by the oncoming end of cheap oil: they're draining as much money as they can out of us before selling oil is no longer a profitable enterprise. Please read the articles.
Edit: also, you're right on the Bush stat. But please don't call it HIS country.

Alright, but at least read the second one. It's newer, this past month actually. And stats don't lie. I'm going to post an image from the magazine.
Also, Bush isn't really stupid, but he is a figure head. It's impossible to become President and be stupid. The guy got good grades at Yale, he can't be that stupid. He's just smart enough to realize that the best way to get and stay in power is to appease the working class and big business at the same time. And you do that by acting like a moron and letting other people do the work.

Uh, kind of. The bit about economic cycles is correct. The bit about being out of debt... I'm pretty sure that the U.S. was only out of debt before it entered the 1st and 2nd World Wars. That was because we were loaning large amounts of money to European powers and running up a large surplus because of it.
The Great Depression... is partially about being in debt, and partially about surplus. The key was WHO was in debt. Leading up to the Great Depression, almost the entire middle class and many farmers were in debt. The problem came when the money they had borrowed was irrevocably re-invested and unpayable that the banks started to collapse from lack of actual money. That quickly led to the stock crash, which led to a decrease in consumption, which led to a decrease in production, which equals a recession.
Ion, 1337uvis, Yags, or Badger could poke some holes in this, but that's just because I left a lot of stuff out for the sake of readability.

The Chicken obviously came first, just by virtue of the theory of evolution. The chicken evolved from a lower species (Though I can't think of any species that would be lower than a chicken) and then laid an egg.

Ok, God created more then 2 of each kind of animal. He created MANY MANY of each. It is just that when the flood came he told Noah to take 2 of each kind onto the ark.

Not in any way. Though you can be kind of viscous without a good reason.
In other news... well, if you let the evidence prevail in your thinking (evolution), then there's no way to decide. The chicken hatches from the egg, but the difference between a chicken and a non-chicken would be very, veeeery minuscule. In fact, it may come down to eugenic differences, at which point there is no answer.
If you believe the Bible, then the chicken came first. However, the quote you were thinking of, Marco, was actually in reference to the Noah's Arc myth. In Genesis, however, it states that on the fifth and sixth days God made the creatures of the sea and land, respectively.
I've never heard of the Chicken or the Egg question as being an evolutionary question. As I just proved, there's no way to know if you follow pure logic and current information, so it's a false dichotomy if that was the original intention.
