5 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs5 years agoAm I alone in wondering if the smoke show Trump is boiling up is a wonderful screen, hiding all the ills that Clinton sidesteps?
Just think of it. Trump is such an amazing spectacle of contrast to the practiced and polished politics of Clinton, that ideally for her, he overshadows all of her less presidential features, making her the obvious sane choice.
Given a real presidential candidate, with moral strength, political prowess, and an above average background in public service, and both of these would be presidents would be jailed.
Is it possible someone in the wings might even now, late in the game, fill that bill?
1 AnswerPolitics5 years agoDo hobby scale welders draw less amps doing lighter jobs?
I recently bought a hobby scale stick welder for use on some thin steel projects. It requires a 20 amp breaker, and I'm assuming that would be the peak draw for its heaviest jobs. If all I am doing is light jobs, with minimal requirement for penetration, would it be likely a 15 amp breaker would hold up?

2 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs6 years agoIf we are the product of a natural process, why do we not follow a natural course, but instead, we ate juxtaposed even to our own natures.?
Our complexity includes second guessing what might otherwise be a "natural" action. Perhaps we do so out of fear for social position, or social perception of our actions. It would seem then that society shares these common limitations...But where is the origin of such balances in our natures?
1 AnswerReligion & Spirituality6 years agoHow do you show your love to God?
In many ways we are given parallels to observe here on earth, and examples to learn expressions of our sincerity, and many of these are shown in scripture, and by these we are then able to discern how we can gauge our faith's integrity.
11 AnswersSociety & Culture7 years agoIf you are familiar with the Chevy P30 Chassis for motor-homes, please look at this question.?
I have a 1975 A Class Fleury Motorhome with P30 Motorhome Chassis. It has a single tire setup to the rear (short chassis, under 20') and most times I mention the P30 to people who are familiar refer to it as a dually... were they all dually? or
some made with single rear tires?
4 AnswersChevrolet7 years agoDoes it seem unrealistic to allow a system of thought that does not allow for all variables,?
define your conclusion of correctness in your world view?
Perhaps more pointed, would be the observation that in the pursuit of science, having seen the "things that seem like the product of design" of the universe (as per Dawkins), and all its parts, still the atheist scientist excludes from their reasoning anything that smacks of the metaphysical.
It might be compared to the patron of a restaurant, and suggesting after having eaten what he ordered,
---that the paper and ink the menu presented, had organized itself ideally to produce the meal.
He excludes the idea of
---an author that wrote the menu,
---an owner that built the restaurant,
---and the agent of the author/owner who assembled the meal.
This same patron then defends his observance with vehemence and jeers to all who might consider such things as "an owner/author with a design to feed people from His restaurant," as viable.
How can we allow such singularity of thought and prejudice of reason define our world view?
8 AnswersReligion & Spirituality7 years agoIf A Posteriori knowledge is knowing by either Empirical Evidence, or by Experience,?
then how can the atheist claim a total lack of "evidence" for God?
If the Christian maintains evidence by experience, shouldn't the atheist then claim a lack of experience, and not a lack of evidence?
4 AnswersReligion & Spirituality7 years agoIf you were on Mars, and saw a perfect triangle of stones on the surface would you think designer?
You might, given whatever time Mars has been there, and you could possibly justify in your mind the idea that over time, given the right vibrations of whatever, these stones may have collected in this pattern for no particular reason other than some natural process, that produced this pattern.
No problem. It is a geometric shape, and such things simply occur in nature.
What if instead, you found on the surface of Mars, a note on paper, that said, "Hello Mark, glad you finally made it to Mars."
Would you for one second think there was no intelligence behind the origin of that note?
You could not possibly think that the slide on the left was a flook of nature, in that you know it was designed and geometrically arranged to be as it appears,
---but you think that nearly infinitly smaller, the cross section of DNA shown on the second frame is the product of a natural process?
And then do you have the intelligence to suggest I have blind faith, believing in God?
7 AnswersReligion & Spirituality7 years agoIf you think the scriptures (the Bible) have been changed, can you say when they were changed, and how?
I am repeatedly told by Muslims that the Bible has been changed,
not that they accept any of it now anyways,
---but Mohammed declared "the book" as being given by God to man (the Torah to Moses, the Ingeel to Christians), and that they were the way of truth and light.
This was written into the Quran before 650AD so I am assuming they mean changes since then.
It seems though when I ask where they were changed, by whom, and how much, no one seems to have the time to answer.
Obviously the Dead Sea Scrolls have confirmed the valid scribing of the Old Testament in its entirety, so the Torah, the Writings and the Prophets remain as written in the OT and we have added to the resevoir of uninspired writings as well from that discovery.
Every scrap of the New Testament found (now dating into the eyewitness period with a most recent discovery of parts of "Mark") shows the validity of what has been written in the New Testament.
With very few later scribal insertions found, and clearly noted in the texts of most current translated Bible copies, I fail to see the claim of any alteration unnoticed, or sufficient to change the overall message of the Bible.
I want to hear evidence of these "changes" if you have any.

21 AnswersReligion & Spirituality7 years agoSo just how big a problem is it to prove origin of life?
It would seem the professionals involved are constantly searching for the right approach, but never actually reaching any conclusion... Is it really that big a problem to solve, or they always just barking up the wrong tree?

“In one sense the origin of life problem today remains what it was in the time of Darwin -- one of the great unsolved riddles of science. Yet we have made progress. Through theoretical scrutiny and experimental effort since the nineteen-twenties many of the early naive assumptions have fallen or are falling aside -- and there now exist alternative theories. In short, while we do not have a solution, we now have an inkling of the magnitude of the problem.”
