Re: Can we get matter from light?

You wreck your own threads, Phil, when you even bother to acknowledge the existence of such a fuckwit. Just ignore him like everybody else does and with any luck he'll eventually just go away. By the way I agree with the general opinion that most of the topics you introduce are simply a vexatious w...

Re: Yves Simon

Who are you to judge what is intelligent with all the crap that spewed forth from your mouth? (and your promises are "exactly" worthless) We have argued for many pages, derailed everything, yet you haven't said anything intelligent. Look what dares to talk about intelligence. Are you at t...

Some people regard it as part of nature, others do not. Most will say it arose through evolution, but others will ask how and why did it arise through evolution? Abstract thinking seems to be limited to the human brain. I regard the human brain one of the great mysteries, just about on a par with a ...
