Tortoises are "different from" Elephants...Though like us they are both animals.


So modern humans evolved to be more intelligent and more dexterous than other species...It's just the way it worked out...Though to assume that therefore we are not animals makes no biological or anatomical sense whatsoever...It's just GOD bothering whimsey, wherein we some people feel the need contradict the whole superior intelligence thing by being stupid...Isn't it ironic, as a well know Canadian songstress once sang.

Abortion is population control.


At an individual level, but not at a global level.


Modern surgery and medical intervention, just means that people live longer and also that babies and infants are more likely to survive...Essentially this is how population is currently "controlled".

Actually, our electricity consumption has been going down, thanks to warmer winters.


And fortunately in Wales there is not much call for air conditioning.


Though rising energy prices does mean that we have to shell out more for what we do use.

LOL Faux, still flogging the same old dead horse...You'll be telling us next that vast new reserves of crude oil are being laid down as we speak.


And that Al Gore is the antichrist.


And that your saviour, (the one you won't openly worship in public), is truly omniscient.

Yes, if Mr Omni is Mr Omni, he will inevitably be Mr Omni.


If not evil, then Mr Omni will only be sort of not completely Omni...Which would be a contradiction.


Ok, so we can draw up a list of potential attributes and label GODDO either Mr Omni or Mr Non-Omni...Though as a result we must therefore conclude that GODDO is in fact not necessarily always Omni...Only sometimes.


To be truly Omni, GODDO would need to be both Omni-Good and Omni-Evil.

Egypt was one of the most advanced ancient civilizations. Learn some history.


As a generalisation, that is a widely accepted truism...Which I was probably taught in infant school.


And prior to the Egyptian era, there would have been other relatively advanced civilisations...Just as newer advanced civilisations developed later.

Hmmmm...Skilled labourers is something of a contradiction isn't it.


Forced labourers more like.


But hey, if experts say that lugging 2 ton blocks of stone around a desert was fun work, then who am I to argue.
