"Superfluids are among the most peculiar and counterintuitive of all materials. They have no viscosity, which allows an object travelling in a pure superfluid to move without friction. " Doesn't matter. If the continents were moving as fast as creationism needs them to move, and then they...

Ha, by ape like, I wasn't being technical, I could have said chimp like, or monkey like-in other words, they really don't look human to me, small brain cage and all.
And yet, the postcranial skeleton of these hominines is very much like a human's.

OK. Would you also have me explain why rocks don't sink in water? Some don't. I never made the claim that sexual reproduction shows more stability than asexual reproduction. Sexual reproduction ensures that the offspring will recombine stable information. Most humans have a few mutations that weren...

The argument is now limited to which ungulate gave rise to whales. I don't see how this gives creationists any comfort. Whether Pakicetus was more closely related to mesonychids, or some other group seems immaterial to the fact that genetic analysis shows that whales are ungulates, and the fact that...

observations show evidence that the universe, or at least the space in the universe, is expanding at a rate faster than the speed of light, and that that rate is increasing. this would mean that light could not reach the edge of the universe. light is moving at a constant speed, in straight lines, ...

Not to mention, the recession of Galaxies. They would all have been out of sight by now. Or if new ones were being continuously produced, the sky would be ablaze with radiation from an infinite number of them.

Can't be eternal.

Why would the friction have to equal the force moving it? This doesn't seem to make much sense. If I pushed a rock with five pounds of force and their were five pounds of drag the object wouldn't move. Newton's First Law. In order to slow the continents from a rapid movement to a slow movement, the...

The friction would have to equal the force moving the continents. The force accelerating them to several feet per year, would then have to be dissipated as heat, when they were decelerated by whatever force. Thermodynamics will not be violated. One way out of the Ark problem was suggested by John Wo...

Nope. Naturalists take bone fragments and assemble them using plaster to fill in the blanks. Every single bone fragment ever found for a human skeleton fits perfectly into modern man. When you see a picture of Cromagnon man with the big forehead, what you are looking at is someone taking bone fragm...

Four feet per day? Moving continents at that rate, would produce enough heat to cook all the fish in the sea. That energy would have to come from somewhere, and then friction would produce incredible amounts of heat.

No, that one can't be right.

Conflict exists in almost all social animals. It's the way the pecking order gets established. But there are usually controls that keep them from killing or seriously harming each other. A dog getting the worst of a fight, can roll over on his back, expose his throat, and the other dog will almost a...

What behaviors lead one to infer love? In science, we have to find ways to objectively measure things. Love is, I think, a difficult thing to objectively measure.

How should we do that?
