questions

I know there's at least one Deist on the board. Hopefully there are more - or this'll be a short thread. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deism I stand as pretty much a 'pre-inflationary-period-agnostic.' We have no data, so it's not possible to make a really scientific, rational guess. Using the...

I've seen a few people on TV/internet talking about the "H20 Battery" which they say can run low powered items such as clocks etc for a couple of months on nothing more than tap water. http://uk.gizmodo.com/2005/11/14/waterpowered_clock_for_hippies.html At first my bullsh*t radar went off the...

inspired by this breaking news in the UK.... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/6364281.stm I wonder - what is the case for nuclear power? Do the benefits outweigh the costs? It seems to me that the first generation power plants' cost per energy produced is going to be incredibly high...

My wife got an ipod for Christmas, and so we have been uploading all our CDs into iTunes (iTunes 7). Doing fine. However, I notice that everything we upload goes into the Music library. Now, we have quite a few books on CD, and I would rather have them in the Audiobooks library, but can't...

I used to play this game with my friends where we would keep asking questions to each other and see how long we could ask questions of each other before we start laughing. So, since conspiracy theorists only ask questions and answer questions with other questions, I suggest that, just for fun...

My first new thread. Yeah. Last time I was accused of hijacking a thread when asking questions there, so now my own thread for them. 1. How many people would you think, it would at least involve if LIHOP was true? What would be the least amount of people needed to create the confusion and...

I have some questions I would like you all to answer for me. The purpose of this thread is to elucidate your beliefs and viewpoints on some key aspects that are directly related to the events surrounding 9/11. First question: Do you believe the premise of a false-flag operation is complete...

TAM5 will feature Hal Bidlack as Alexander Hamilton. The purpose of this thread is to post questions that could be put to Alexander Hamilton. (Sadly, it does not appear that I will be able to make it to TAM5. If I were able to attend, I would put some of these questions to Hamilton myself...

As we know, Truthers like to make up lists of probing questions about 9/11: http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=70136 I guess every Truther has a different version of this list, just as they each have a different version of the story. And in any case, the questions they...

http://100777.com/node/235 Anyone want to take a crack at them? This is apparently the author's website: http://www.ourdna.org EDA: I know its an outdated page (his website is now a search portal meaning, its a dead site).

;) 1) Being only slightly malicious, would it be possible to close down the whole LC forum by simply mentioning "Korey Rowe" in each thread? From the reported behaviour of the Mods there, the KR Heresy means instant nuking of the whole thread. Of course, not getting rid of the thread means...

This is the list of questions that Scooter Libby's defense team wants to ask potential jurors. Funny how they are held to a higher standard then our president (see below). http://www.salon.com/politics/war_room/2006/11/22/scooter/index.html Thanks to My Cousin Vinny I have some idea what...

In a debate, what questions would you like to ask Steven E. Jones?

If we may. We all know there are some flaws in official reports- there always will be concerning matters as important, but regardless- but what do YOU find, in the CT assortment (or in plain lack of addressing issues from official reports) to be unanswered questions?

Alright Docker, I've had enough of you evading questions on your opinion of 9/11. Why don't you take a stance instead of attacking every single source that agrees with the original story just because it agrees with the original story. How did the Twin Towers fall? Were the phone calls on...

I have two questions with regards to radioactive material. First, the standard model of the universe as I understand it states that all the elements through iron can be formed during fusion in stars, and the rest of the elements are created in super novas. How is it, then, that we see elements...

Hello all, I had an "eye opening" experience last weekend, which I'm pretty sure many of you have been through already. Before I start to relate this let me just say that I've been a bona fide skeptic for a few years now but I have yet to find one person worthy of the name "skeptic" in my...

If you had the chance to 'edit' a baby's DNA to get rid of a biological issue that there is a good probability they'd develop later on in life, would you? Maybe one might get declined a job, if the employer sees in their DNA profile that there is a high likelihood that they'd be a medical risk...

I've started a new thread because a) I didn't want to derail the other one, and b) the Million Dollar Challenge section of the forum is about the JREF challenge specifically, and this thread sort of isn't. But if it gets moved I won't weep. Much. OK, here...

Please complete the List of Questions with your expieriences so far: 1. Why did "they" make it look like a controlled demolition? 2. Why didn´t "they" blow building 7 in the dust cloud of the Towers? 3. Why does the debris fall faster than the "freefall"-Towers? 4. Why did "they" need...

12 Questions For I.D. Creationists – ideas, inspiration and some verbiage from “Why Darwin Matters” by Michael Shermer. 1. Why do males have nipples? 2. Why did the intelligent designer design the male uterus? (the remnant of an undeveloped female reproductive organ hanging from the prostate...

I'm just starting a Bachelor of Education and my teacher for Gr. 1-8 Mathematics told us in the first class that she had a math problem with no answer next week. She shared the anecdote that a student from last year had written her afterwards asking what the "real" answer was, which was...

Requesting clarification of the following: (1) Will the challenge end when someone wins the $1m prize, or will it continue, with another prize? (2) Is it okay to post here an initial draft of a challenge proposal, prior to submitting an application, and solicit advice on protocols and so...

Even though you are dodging a lot of questions and in general are breaking all the rules of debating, I think your presence at this forum is good. I think it proves that JREF members are actually seeking the truth. We do like people to question our beliefs because that ensures that we are never...

1) Just exactly what totally changes? 2) Why is it called the "Total Change Theorem", not the ""Net Change Theorem"? Thx

Ok, I have a few questions and I am going to try to write it out in the correct fashion. There are 2 planets in 2 identical solar systems but not connected and both are in seperate vaccums. If one planet was earth and the other planet was identical to earth but rotated on its axis slower...

.....which i've just finished :) I've left the title rather vague - as there's a few questions i can think of....but specifically a couple stand out as matters of interest - 1) why are segregation distorters not more common? brief explanation of segregation distorters here I could see...

I was speaking to a waitress at a diner near where I work and noticed that she was now using one of those marking pens used to check for counterfeits. We got to wondering, do they really work, and if so, how? Any help here? Thanks.

I just started reading Carl Sagan's Demon-Haunted World and in chapter 6 entitled "Hallucinations" Sagan tells of a list of questions he had for someone who was claiming he could could communicate with extraterrestrials. Sagan was invited to "ask them anything" so he asked things like, "Please...

Has anyone registered multiple domains using GoDaddy.com or another similar site? Their help is extensive but too much for me to wade through for my simple questions: If I order a hosting package will I be able to have all my domains point to that hosting server (at various locations, of...
