    I absolutely love the Nativity story

    I love, absolutely love, the Nativity story. Somewhere I have a small creche that I used to put up every year. A special baby is born into reduced circumstances and everyone, from kings to shepherds and the beasts of the fields, knows he is special. I enjoy the portents, the star, the herald...

    "Your Baby Can Read": Is this B.S. or what?

    As seen on TV: "Your Baby Can Read" http://www.google.com/#hl=en&source=hp&q=%22your+baby+can+read%22&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&fp=a86c207b1c79523e What's the real story behind this educational reading program for infants? It sure displays a few of the hallmarks of pseudoscientific...

    Classical Music and Babies

    Bit of background can be found here. Apparently playing classical music to babies does some scientific **** on their brains and makes them smarter. Because I'm young and naive (sigh), I wanted your opinion on its legitimacy. I came across as unusually immature in this post :cool:. Alex...

    Knowing the sex of an unborn child causes it to be born later?

    Hi all. I've been reading these forums (fora?) for a dog's age and I finally have something to post. :) Some of the longer threads in Religion and Philosophy are spectacular! A good friend of mine's third child is due in the next three weeks. Making conversation, I asked whether they knew...

    Why is baby eating illegal?

    Supposedly the United States is the land of the free, but it doesn't feel all that free. Why is it illegal to eat human babies? I mean, it's perfectly legal to eat baby chickens. And eggs, for that matter. Why can't we head on over to the local planned parenthood and pick up some abortus...

    (Ed) Use of sign language with pre-verbal infants

    Among various ventures I'm currently involved in, one of the most exciting is that I will soon be opening China's first large-scale infant signing venture. Infant signing is, basically, the use of sign language to communicate with babies before they can speak, and even during the first period...

    Woman with Two Wombs has Tripletts

    Learn something new every day I never knew some women had two wombs. And really with the odd of 25 million to 1, you woul think that it would have happened at least twice in america, and god knows how many times in india and china

    According to science: Is it better to speak to babies with baby talk? or adult talk?

    According to science: Is it better to speak to babies with baby talk? Or adult talk? Do babies learn language better and more effectively when we talk to them using high pitched vocalizations, and sounds such as "ga ga goo goo?" Or when we speak proper (or at least normal) adult sentences using...

    why do babies cry so much?

    just a quickie, surely babies wailing away as they do at all times of the day can't have been especially beneficial on an evolutionary timescale - as patrolling sabre tooth tigers and the like would have been attracted to the sound.....thus the louder the baby, the more likely they were to end...

    Whiner Babies Unite

    I woke up this morning to see a "developing" story. Muslims were offended! It's not just old news now that I'm posting this, it's been old news for several years now. Bruce Campbell would refer to this ridiculous behavior as a bunch of "Whiner Babies." What I can't figure is why the American...

    Fox News' john Gibson says: Have More Babies!

    At least white babies. You colored folks pay no attention. http://mediamatters.org/items/200605120006 Half the kids in the US under five are minorities. Mostly Hispanic. Gabachos are becoming extinct! After all, civilizations need population to survive, and Hispanics can't carry the whole...

    Why don't babies know how to work on furnaces?

    Good question, isn't it? Actually there is something profound in this, somewhere. I think one can use the answer to this to help determine if a higher power, like a God, programmed man for some purpose. Being that God is all omniscient and supposedly got...

    God kills innocent babies

    I find it very promising that both Kathy and Pat, two very preachy christians, agree that Gunderscored is to blame for these random act of childmurder and childabuse(killing their parents). I therefore feel everyone must come together and take a stance. Gunderscored was the one that denied us...

    Homeopathy & Chiropractic for babies

    Having lurked around these forums for some time (and learnt a great deal btw!) recent circumstances have prompted me to make my first post! I’m currently having a “debate” with my wife over suggested treatments for colic for our 9 week old baby. In search of some relief (for both her and our...

    Babies, language acquisition and the 'Babbler'.

    Any speech / language pathologists or child development people out there? I'm poking around on one of my foibles - language acquisition (currently doing some thinking about cultural interpretations of books, in particular two versions of the same children's book - one American English, the...

    Did you know a million babies were murdered in 2000.

    How many babies were killed in 2000? 1.31 million. Why don't anti-war liberals care about babies being slaughtered? How can you point the finger at Bush when you GLADLY allow 1.31 million babies to die in cold blooded murder?

    Where do babies come from?

    No, I never had sex-ed, but no, that’s not really what I’m wondering ;). I’m wondering how new individuals come into the world from the immaterialist standpoint. The materialist position seems simpler to me at first glance, but I’ve never come across the immaterialist’s idea of how a new human...

    Are babies able to taste?

    I have had numerous answers from different people about this question and honestly I am not sure which one is right. My sister has just had a baby with a cleft pallet. She has trouble feeding him so she has to add this apparently bitter tasting crap to his milk for added calories. Baby goes...
