Why don't you quote instead of bolding stuff, Darunia?
It was a marsh at the top edge of the Red Sea, and then exaggerated in stories probably for generations afterwards... like many stories of the sort...
No, just the ones in the Bush administration and all the radical groups that are trying (and in some cases, as that article outlines, succeeding) to cripple science... and they are very clever. I highly recommend reading at least most of that article... trying to get "intelligent design" taught in schools, trying to stop all cloning and stem cell rescearch (which would greatly hurt medical science), trying to stop condom distribution in Africa by giving money to cheap aids drugs instead (very clever!), etc...
No, but there is plenty of data that says going to college helps people overall... getting better jobs, etc... not for any one person in particular, but in general? There is hard data.

Quote:So, you want proof of all of this? Too bad. I want proof that going to college will give me a better life. Does that mean that, since there isn't concrete proof it will benefit me, I shouldn't go after it? The same is true with faith, only on a much, much larger scale.
