"Thank goodness vendredi is going by quickly!" That is all I can say right now because I desperately want some shut eye.
I'm not sure I entirely buy the new terms right wing christians are coming up with to rebuke science. "Intelligent falling" just seems too...plucked out of thin air (no pun intended). It sounds like a comic book that is trying hard to sound smart by spewing some scientific jargon.
I suppose I am confusing you by sudden random announcement. But it all started when I was reading The Onion and I came across an article having to do with christians discounting Newtons Law of Gravity by suggesting that it is not really gravity that makes objects fall, rather an intelligent being (ahem God) pushes things back to the earths surface. Earlier today, I came across another term,"Intelligent design," in the Orlando Weekly. Simply put, it is the thought that the universe is too complex to have happened by chance so God must have guided creation. "Intelligent design" refutes Darwinism, and while I don't dogmatically accept either of these positions, the two sided debate left me somewhat enthralled.
People and their personalities fascinate me. Some fascinate me more than others. If I could have a set amount of time in the day to study people and their styles, I would.
