    the delusion was the daydream of Aang.
    Which is more real than Zutara. Now let's take the shipping war to the shipping thread.

    Probably same. Plus, everytime I hear swearing, it catches me off guard and scares me. Dunno why that is. I can read it without spazzing, though. -is wierd- So let's talk about how real ghosts are. Anyone a believer?

    i want to believe it but i don't, i used to but i took an interest in science so naturally i had to reject any interst in anything supernatural. (i also turned atheist, but now i'm agnostic)

    I think it's funny when they swear but I can't tolerate the scatological humor, and the unnecessary violence at the end of a couple ones I've seen.

    I used to not beleive it, too. Then all these really trustworthy people who never would lie talked about these ghosts and stuff that they'd "met", so I started reading more about ghosts and stuff, and then I watched some shows that convinced me. You've gotta admit though, there are some things science could never explain, and half the stuff they teach us is still "in the process of being proved", like Global Warming(I don't know whether to agree or disagree with that one... I guess we should try to conserve energy and forests anyways, but humans just release an itty bittyfraction of all the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere), organic food being better for you, (The nutricionists I've talked to say that it's not been proven that they're better or worse), and evolution (Find me that missing link and I'll believe it.) They used to think that transfats were better for you, but it turns out they're worse.

    How about we get back to the ghosties. Anyone ever been to a haunted house?

    organic food is (pardon my language) bulls***, if anything it's worse because the stuff shoudl be GM'd to stop bugs eating it and leaving s**t on it, organic food has bugs and stuff not worth mentioning on it because of this.

    evolution has had no evidence against it ever, especially not from creationism, so there is no logical reason to diebelieve it, creationism doesn't count as a logical reason, find me evidence that the world was made in 6 days and i'll rethink darwinism.

    global warming is probably true, you've got to look at who's funding all of the research that says it's false, the thing is, no one will ever do anything about it because it's not an immediate threat and politiciand don't like dealing with issues they don't need to immedaitely.

    true, there is lots of stuff science can't explain yet. emphasis on yet, in the future science will be able to explain all of those unsolved mysteries. (yet no one will ever explain why toast always falls butter-side-down)

    Actually, my sources all say that the chances of things happenning JUST SO in order for there to be life are extremely thin. Possible, but not very. The problem isn't the evidence against it, it's the lack of evidence itself. They've shown how a a bear can evolve into a red panda, but how do they know humans evolved from MONKIES? Maybe it's one of those speicies that died out when the Earth was covered with ash or debris or whatever it is. They're still missing a lot of things that make the teory of evolution a scientific fact.

    Here;'s something I found on the internetz. http://www.johnankerberg.org/Articles/_PDFArchives/science/SC1W0102.pdf

    In "Algorithms and the Neo-Darwinian Theory of Evolution," Marcel P. Schutzenberger of

    the University of Paris, France, calculated the probability of evolution based on mutation

    and natural selection. Like many other noted scientists, he concluded that it was "not conceivable"

    because the probability of a chance process accomplishing this is zero: "...there

    is no chance (

    Myth#1:To let go of Earthly attachment means Aang can't get married.
    False! The Guru said, "You must learn to let go" NOT "You must let go." As in, being the Avatar has to take precedence over anything else, including your spouse. But, having said spouse is A OK.

    Myth #2: Because Toph was seen in the Swamp and you see visions of people you lost, it means Toph will die.
    False! When you see Katara's mom and Yue, not that Toph is completely left out. In fact Aang eventalks about Toph as if she was seperate in the next sentence after they're seen. After being questioned, Aang says that Toph is someone he will meet.The Swamp was conveying a positive message of connection. You're connected to to everyone even if they're dead, or you haven't met them yet.

    think about it, the odds against life are thin, if the earth was made so it was uninhabitable, we wouldn't be having this conversation would we? only because life exists can we have this chat. anyway, there are billions of planets in the universe without life, why can't one planet in billions have life on it? the odds that 1 in billions will have life are pretty high.
