Random Rants From Random Users

Let me start this off by saying I have the ability to divide by Zero. It's a superpower.

Now, as a Catholic, born, raised, and practicing, I have my own doubts on the Bible, especially some of the authors from the Old Testament. I mean, people wrote the Bible, not God. You can only imagine what biases the authors of old and what limitations to their judgment were.

So, coming to Evolution, I believe in that "Microevolution", that we didn't come from nothing, but we were adapting, whether it be by skin pigments, height, or w/e the DNA can come with.


I just find it hard to believe that Prokaryotic(sp) Cells come from nothing. :S


My Rant too is: Stupidity. The sad part is, it doesn't seem like anybody WANTS to learn. >_>'

[Daddyo]

I've always wanted to find what was thought of the lowest form of life, being out of school and forgetting all that stuff. Just wanted to see if evolution seemed reasonable, I think all the evidence should already be available, if it were valid, although the smallest bits may all be decomposed. Here's what I quickly found starting roughly lowest to highest, add more if you like:

• crystal?
  mineral? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evenkite http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpathite http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whewellite http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abelsonite
  viroid http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viroid
  virus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virus
  algae (single-celled plant) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algae
  algae (multi-celled plant)
  bacteria (single cell animals) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteria
  plankton (virus to multi-celled animals) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plankton

  Daddyo

I put crystal & mineral in there, to see what you thought, being an organized formation, minerals can be very complex, check out that evenkite. I don't know if a virus could be a life form, but I consider it to be, since it tries to survive and replicate, although in a different way that's thought of as conventional, but again what's the difference between that and anyone who eats plants or animals? They even evolve, and have genes. Is there something like a virus that survives off of something other than living cells, like heat &/or chemicals? That would be the thing to find.

There's also been a good amount of hydrocarbons found found on comets & planets http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/20 ... 125014.htm The universe is an insanely huge bowl of chemical soup.

I still don't have a rant...hopefully my depicted advanced evolution will cover it

[Avi]

I think I should have come in between single-celled and multi-celled plants in your list, Daddyo...but thanks for the encouragement.

Okay, totally random rant:

I hate spammers. Nothing ruins a good corrupt-a-wish thread like some spamtard who says the weirdest stuff. It's really bad on the Guitar Hero forums. When I used to post there, the spamming was REALLY bad, and the admins didn't do squat. Heck, we even had spammers trying to look like admins. Eventually it just got out of control and I joined Tron-Sector.

And that is why I believe spammers must all simultaniously spontaniously combust. :mad:

[death_program]

Unless they are spamming in the official spamming section. Almost all of the forums I'm on have a spam section.

[SweatyPyro]

I also rant that there are pointless Game threads that are just really spam. I mean, come on! Say something productive.

[TRON.dll]

When I posted over at the Guitar Hero forums, "Off-Topic Discussion" was the breeding ground for spammers. I logged on one day and went to Off-Topic. Here's what I found:

Topics:
Wii Codes
Spam
Spam
Spam
Spam
Spam
Spam
Spam

You get the idea.

Say something productive.

Pancakes. :lol:

[Avi]

What else is there to say about Tron 2.0 that is productive? Everything about this game is at a standstill at the moment.

How about this:

Hey guys! I just made a rear view mirror decoration for my car with my Tron 2.0 disc!

Let's all talk about different things we can do with our Tron 2.0 disc.

On the doctrine of religious identities, I was always taught that if you want to know an answer for the bible, certain practices and who the people present themselves as, you have to know and do what they do to know what they are doing, as with every doctrine of religious origin. To ignore the whole is an animal instinct, since mankind don't seem to be herd animals, the phenomenon you see in religious sects is just that. People just get along enough to be happy, or else.

I learned what I know of the bible from studying the unabridged concordance. To use formal references is the only answer worth listening to for accurate reason to dictate what the bible is.
(and FYI AVI, the angels which are known as giants, whom were said to have bred with early man, are infact said to have fallen from the sky, (no, not gods either) thus a belief in extra-terrestrials, as with dinosaurs, there are interpretations for animals in various forms in the Torah).
As for evolution, there are reasons why it existed at any capacity from what I recall some 40 million years ago. The conditions were as such: everything had extreme growth compared to today, everything was young, from the sub-atomic energy which activates minerals and elevates electrical hemostasis in everything, to huge amounts of bio active material in the environment. The stuff made from such an extremely stable environment proves the dynamics we see as mysterious processes, as you could imagine, the various types of materials back then all contributed to an evolutionary process, which is extinct.

I doubt we evolved in the respect people take from how we look like apes. We could be ancestrally from the same turd an alien laid in a puddle, however, the evidence species mutating to any significant level is not there. Not humans or apes, or what fossils they dig up. The sizes and such may change, but not who we are. for atleast a million years. I believe so from evidence of skeletal remains found in africa, we are different like animals, not apes.

For our bodies to be manipulated genetically to interbreed is a far extinct process, environment, and or species, if we evolved from lower life.

I tried to rant, it just sounded like a lecture... crap.

you'll get there in the end jade :lol:

i tried to use my tron 2.0 disc as a frisbee. i ended up slicing an OAP in half by accident. cheers avi
when i read that spam post by tron.dll it reminded me of that post on boxhat that said something like "ignore the trolls". can anyone remember that?

[Avi]

I think it was "Don't Feed The Trolls", and I think I may have started that thread. I was referring to several particular members of Boxhat that wouldn't play the game or contribute to it in any way, but would sit there and read the forums looking for a fight. Even some of the moderators of the old Boxhat message board were sometimes complete a__holes (not the ones that are here in LDSO, mind you...). Guys like Drago-something, Askilfeasd, and a few others would only stop by once a day (sometimes only once a month) to flex their moderator muscle and edit or delete posts. Those guys perpetuated the downfall of Boxhat by letting the less friendly members go wild and clamping down on the people that really had something to say. At least they went down with the ship and didn't move over here when everyone made the jump...which proves that they had no interest in the Tron 2.0 community at all. Once they had no one to bully, they had no use for any of us.

I think we're better off without Boxhat and it's crappy fair-weather moderators anyway. That's my rant.

[TRON.dll]

You could always merge a TRON 2.0 disk with an AOL disk! It wouldn't be too much of a loss, with the awesomeriffic Unnoficial Patch making the disk unnecessary!

Deadly Disks of TRON 2.0, lol. :lol:

hell yeah. although we lost a lot of cool threads from boxhat i wont miss some of its members. and now we have this forum to talk on minus all of the bastards from boxhat

Yea, well the cool part about boxhat was that originally anything goes. The part I enjoyed was having a friendly atmosphere even if you wanted to strangle someone on the thread, people said it as it is, and most ppl can't reason why that seemed normal which was why it made it interesting. I think it has alot of potential. And hope it comes back.
:? Rant face.

[Avi]

I think it has alot of potential.

Don't you mean "had"?

Past tense.

History.
