dont know if tis has been mentioned before, but technology is moving at speed these days as we all know so why hasnt the small things called batteries evolved all that much. you would have thought they would have found a much easier nd longer energy source than the stuff they put in those tings

Ed, didn't you say a while ago you believed an afterlife is possible because of a sudden weight loss people have when they die?

I agree with Supasub's opinions and if there is a creater, we humans wouldn't have worked him/her/it out at all, which is why I don't follow a religion. However, I think some form of conscious creater of the universe is no more unplausible than emerging from nothing.

Its athread from further down so thought id re-post as it is interesting. Regarding the body being lighter after death, isn't it something like 21 grammes to do with the film 21 grammes?
Could be the human spirit or something similar?

Supasub {Ed001's Note - that is why they called the film that and all sorts of people have looked for reasons to explain it, but most theories are more of a fudge than an explanation.}

Greetings all,

I've read the boxing match between Deano and Ed001 and found it epically enlightening but more so hugely entertaining.
Can I throw the theory into the ring which wasn't mentioned, that being that the human race is only 250 000 years old? Think it was Pye amongst others who theorises this(may be wrong).
I can say and think we all agree on the fact that we are here by intelligent design. What intelligence designed us? Was it God, evolution or some other intervention?
I do not know, but I believe we were spliced with the DNA of our creators with that of the then indigenous beings on this planet. Coupled with that we were programmed to worship our creators and call them gods.
This in my opinion is where all the differing religions come into play.
I am not knocking religion in no way, shape or form as my mum(RIP) was one of the most devout Christians you will ever see. As a child, I was dragged to pentecostal church(usually kicking and screaming) on Sunday morning to sing happy clappy songs, whilst all my mates played out. This is probably one of the reasons why I don't go now.
What I will say tho is my mum was always tolerant of other religions and even the none believers. I think if all people into religion had that view, the world would be a better place.
Forgot the original point I was going to make now. Doh!

not really my thing but have seen a uncut documentary interview with tupac called the lost prison tapes while he was in prison,not that i thought he was thick but what a very intelligent man, the guy interviewing him asked "what do you think on youth and gang violence?"he said this country was built up on gangs, and i think this country is still run on gangs democrats , republicans, the police department the CIA FBI, those are gangs,this whole country is built up on gangs," the interviewer asks what about the violence? tupac replies "its violence in america , what do USA just do flying up at Bosnia? they got no business over there,its the same thing,america is the biggest gang in the world" enough said

i'm sorry but who cares if some tory mp called a copper a pleb. Police get called worse every day. I've just saw a copper on midlands today say its an integrity issue. Really? Like the police have a leg to stand on calling other people liars. Surely there's bigger issues than this.

i'm not trying to start an argument here, i'd just like to know how many people believe in religion and how many do not. I myself do not, and find it hard to understand why people do.

Hit 'Agree' if you are a believer and hit 'Disagree' if you're not.

Sorry Ed/Everyone to take this to a footballing subject.
Anyone who visit's this page regularly will know I've got a bee in my bonnet about the current Barca era and their crop of player's including the development of Mr messi, based on the fact they seem to be all slightly muscular nippy midget's who rarely seem to get injured and can play lot's of games during a season ,maintaining amazing level's of play for an entire match.
It turns out that (banned for life) Lance Armstrong's main medical chief Dr Luis Garcia del Moral (also now banned for life) was according to his office a medical advisor to Barca over the past decade.
Only reported yesterday that Barca have come out and only denied that he was ever on the payroll after checking their record's but could not guarantee that he had not been used by the club or player's on an ad hoc basis (based on the fact his name did'nt appear on the payroll).
They added that they have just recently changed their medical set-up but failed to answer when asked who was now managing it. It does'nt seem to be reported in our country though and what does it take to get a club or player's investigated. Real Madrid first arose suspician's about Barca a few year's ago and they were dismissed as being jealous of Barca's success. I've always liked the way they pass without the play acting and face holding but I've always had a gut feeling that they've had something in their half-time orange's so to speak. That and with alleged payment's to FIFA officials daughter's account by the then chairman along with some very favourable refereeing decision's which is all yet to really come out, how much suspicion can a club arouse before it's seriously looked at? Mr Blatter?
Discuss.....

if you can try and watch "the most dangerous man in america" its a documentary about a man called Daniel ellsberg a Pentagon insider that leaked top-secret government papers that disclosed shocking truths about the Vietnam War and Nixon's presidency. in fact he was part of the lies at the start,he mentions that the USA used a false flag lie that USA ships were being attacked which meant the USA could invade Vietnam and the top secret files he copied goes on to tell that that presidents Truman/ Eisenhower/JFK/Johnson and Nixon all lied in some way about Vietnam, you hear secret tapes of Nixon saying to Kissinger "we need something big Henry,lets put a nuclear bomb on them"That, I think, would just be too much," Kissinger replies Nixon replies "does that bother you?" for gods Henry you got to think big" there are loads more i could say about this documentary btw made by a independent group , so no glossing over the facts. if you cant get the documentary try read about Daniel ellsberg who gave up a very high position and a very very good income knowing that he could get sentenced for life for leaking top secret papers , a true whistle blower.
