Here is a little break down on the situation here:

Using the Hubble Telescope, you can see out into vast reaches of space, and watch galaxies/solar systems/etc being formed, but here is the catch:

It takes time for light to travel from that far in space, so you are looking at events that happened billions of years ago.

Please, refrain from calling me an idiot simply because you don't understand.

errr... this thread was about what again?
yup, so you know what you have to do now, don't you?
good!

So don't talk about evolution etc., make some new thread about it if you need to discuss darwins evolution theory versus what the bible sais. (although it might very well turn into an other religion thread)

Actually, there is a lot of evidence. I'll be happy to tell you in a week or so, when I have my biology exam . Oh, and we discussed creationism, Darwinism, neo-darwinism, lamark,...

Purgatory is mentioned by, among others, Dante (13th century), 'La Divina Commedia', and probably before him.



Oh, and Wisebobo is right.

god damnit, Im going with the admiral on this one, lay off the evolution. Make a new thread for that one. And I also agree that the cons outway the pros. social development is far more important than actual education. if u want both u should find sum kickass school, probably not publik. if u need publik u can go w/ a "gifted" program (depending where u r) or a program like the IB program. that is all over the damnn planet.

Would you care to explain that one?
You could be the nicest person in the world and end up a bin man if you don't have any qualifications.

Edit
Although I would argue you don't have to be a nice person to get on with people

[vivanolaq]

the phrase was worded poorly. Wat is ment is that one can lern throughout life wat 1 can lern in skool, but 1 cant lern society l8ter in life cuz no1 will tlk 2 u cuz u suk and don't no the rules.

[LIGHTNING [NL]]

Might I ask where you learned to write like that?

[vivanolaq]

a certain female friend of mine taught me.
