RE: Existence of God v Science

It's just as arrogant to believe in God as it is anything else - perhaps more so, since at least those who believe in science are humble enough to require evidence and hard work in investigating reality.

RE: Existence of God v Science

Right. The point being that the God Hypothesis is non-explanatory (that is, is unnecessary to explain the universe - or, more broadly, existence).

Jeff Aries!

RE: What is the BEST thing about being Single???

You don't have to share the KY Jelly?

RE: What are the signs that you have matured?

No wonder I never had a chance with you, Euphoria!

RE: What are the signs that you have matured?

I don't think the growing process ever ends...at least I hope not. I feel that I've changed more in the last two years than during the previous 15. Being alone has provided ample time for reflection - too much time, it often seems. I think I'm far slower to anger now than I was 10 years ago, and more inclined to let my inner kindness/compassion/yada yada come to the fore. I'm far more comfortable with tender/sympathetic emotions - something I worked hard to suppress as a young man - and am far more willing to laugh at myself, or to use humor to ameliorate a bad situation rather than worsen that situation with anger or frustration.

RE: Who wants Ambrose

I don't know, Dana. It's a tough job, admittedly, but someone - even someone so hair-challenged - has to do it.

RE: Detective Work....Who do YOU think Mr. McMaybe is?

That's "senor," not "senior."

RE: Detective Work....Who do YOU think Mr. McMaybe is?

A -ha, Claire! From that smidged of features, I now know who Senior McMaybe is! Damned if it isn't EastbayRay! And I thought you said he was older, you sly girl you!

RE: Who wants Ambrose

Is it the hair, Ship? You can tell me!

RE: Detective Work....Who do YOU think Mr. McMaybe is?

Well, at least I'm still silly, thank Zeus...

RE: Detective Work....Who do YOU think Mr. McMaybe is?

Don't worry, Irish. It's been having that effect on a lot of people around here.

RE: P.C. Gynecology

Exactly. Incidentally, I've had my balls busted a few times here for inappropriate humor, Diogenes. I guess I must be one of those beneficial guys...

RE: Detective Work....Who do YOU think Mr. McMaybe is?

My God, Claire - his name is "Jethro" and he's 76 years old! I am so impressed with your affection for us elderly types!

RE: Who wants Ambrose

I think you're right to suspect her, Dana. The gears in that girl's Machiavelian mind never stop turning (how many times have I used "Machiavelian" today? Well, considering this list, what adjective better applies? )

RE: Who wants Ambrose

Some of me, Blue? My hairstylist's name?

RE: Who wants Ambrose

And now you understand my dilemma, dear Dana. If only the pipes hadn't frozen again this week, I might've taken the opportunity to shampoo it. And now, with the furnace malfunctioning, it's so cold in here that it's kind of frozen in the state it was in this morning when I first crawled out of bed.

RE: what is your biggest fear?

That you're something of a martial artist (your speciality - flipping things).

RE: Who wants Ambrose

Do you think you could throw in a shampoo and a shave with that back massage, Dana?

RE: what is your biggest fear?

I just hope my head lice are in a good mood today.

And speaking of small creatures, I had no idea you were such a bird-lover, Rock! It's good to see a young lady so close to nature!

RE: What item can' t you live without?

Computer?

RE: what is your biggest fear?

RE: Detective Work....Who do YOU think Mr. McMaybe is?

I'm not sure that's excusable, but I accept your story, Luscious.

I am becoming increasingly concerned, however, that you may prove to be a one-woman environmental disaster. Think melting ice caps and such...

RE: what is your biggest fear?

Come now, dear Rock. Sometimes a cheek is just a cheek, you know?

RE: Detective Work....Who do YOU think Mr. McMaybe is?

I'm somewhat concerned ecologically, Claire, because I think she might possibly cause a flood melting all that snow over there...

RE: Detective Work....Who do YOU think Mr. McMaybe is?

I know, I know. He saw those horns and red eyes and it was love and first sight. Some people are just blessed in that demonic way...

RE: Detective Work....Who do YOU think Mr. McMaybe is?

My...nice photo, Luscious (your name has become rather self-descriptive).

RE: Vanity question for older men

RE: Detective Work....Who do YOU think Mr. McMaybe is?

I think maybe it's me... Or mcmaybe that's wishful thinking?

Seriously, Claire, at least one person suspected I was that dastardly lothario that dared to take our wonderful horned girl from us...

RE: Vanity question for older men

Words to wise, Kid, words to the wise! I was kind of thinking the same thing, but my hair stood up all straight with fear when I reached for the clippers, and I just didn't have the heart to go through with it.
