I am neither a religious scholar nor an expert on Islamic history.

But I do know the word "algebra" comes from Arabic and comes to us via a book written in Islamic Persia over a thousands years ago that describes algebra (as we know it).

Similarly the word "algorithm" is based on the name of ano...]]>http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/315536http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/315536Sat, 05 Jul 2008 17:09:31 -04002008-07-05T21:09:31Leaukihttp://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/315141
The predictions of theories can be used in engineering and other fields. Applications of the theory of evolution have been used successfully in such diverse fields as medicine and (yes) computer science. Evolution is solid, a tool that we can use to advance.


For a good article...]]>http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/315141http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/315141Sat, 05 Jul 2008 17:09:31 -04002008-07-05T21:09:31Leaukihttp://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/314554

1.

President Obama wants to appoint a new middle east expert.

Thefirst candidate knew the middle east well, spoke Arabic and Hebrew, andhas lived in the middle east for decades, but he wasn't a Democrat.

The second candidate was a Democrat, but didn't know the middle east well and spoke neither Arabic nor Hebrew.

Have there ever been successful lab experiments demonstrating how a god creates life (let alone two different lifeforms)?

You need:

1. A lab without any life in it.

2. A big or mid-sized all-powerful god. (You can use a Greek or Roman god or a Semitic god, I don't care; please refrain from using Hindu or native American gods if possible to make the experiment easier to reproduce. Darwinists use fruit flies beca...]]>http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/314483http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/314483Sat, 05 Jul 2008 17:09:31 -04002008-07-05T21:09:31Leaukihttp://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/313785

Surely the sources of the most-often-cited "arguments" have been discredited a long time ago and are now only believed by stupid illiterate people but not well-educated western students?

However, despite the fact that "Mein Kampf" and the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" are not accepted as factual in the west, lies about Israel are still bel...]]>http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/313428http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/313428Sat, 05 Jul 2008 17:09:31 -04002008-07-05T21:09:31Leaukihttp://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/313311

As was mentioned many times before, the evolution of one speciesinto two can be observed in the lab. I believe they usually usefruitflies.

The theory of evolution says that what works in the lab explainswhat happened in the real world as well. There is no reason to assumethat fruitflies (or any animal) stop reproducing just before twopopulations stop being compatible enough to interbre...]]>http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/312059http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/312059Sat, 05 Jul 2008 17:09:31 -04002008-07-05T21:09:31Leaukihttp://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/304872

I am now tending towards working something out with the sheiks and handing the rest over to Jordan, perhaps as a separate country sharing the same monarch.

Why force the Arabs in the West Bank to live under PLO or Hamas rule? The people of East-Jerusalem are signing up for Israeli passports lately, they obviously don’t want PLO rule ...]]>http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/303223http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/303223Sat, 05 Jul 2008 17:09:31 -04002008-07-05T21:09:31Leaukihttp://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/302625
1. Self-proclaimed "Muslims" who never read the Quran and base theiropinion largely on urban legends. They live in the west and have accessto facts but don't use it.

2. Muslims from other places whodon't have easy access to facts. They usually change their mind oncethey find out the truth. They are usually not willfully ignorant. But some of them are and don't. (Those that don't eventually join radical Muslim or Arab nationalist parties.) ...]]>http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/302625http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/302625Sat, 05 Jul 2008 17:09:31 -04002008-07-05T21:09:31Leaukihttp://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/301955
Imagine a household of three 20-something year olds sharing a flat.

Imagine the flat has three rooms, a big one, a small one, and a mid-sized one. (The big one has also the nicest view.)

Imagine the three 20-something year olds work:

Peter is a software developer and works full-time. He makes the most money of the three.

Paddy is a part-time call-center clerk and works 20 hours a week. He makes less money per hour than Peter.

Paul is an office dron...]]>http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/301955http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/301955Sat, 05 Jul 2008 17:09:31 -04002008-07-05T21:09:31Leaukihttp://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/300632

Background info:

The Microsoft .NET framework is really a virtual machine plus framework very much like Java. .NET binaries (assemblies) are nominally cross-platform and should, in theory, run on any platform assuming that the .NET runtime software is installed.

.NET is also a standardized platform, with Microsoft .NET being but one implementation.

Microsoft provide their .NET runtime for most versions of Win...]]>http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/300632http://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/300632Sat, 05 Jul 2008 17:09:31 -04002008-07-05T21:09:31Leaukihttp://citizenleauki.joeuser.com/article/300618

"Some fear that the risk would be too great, that there's no guarantee that even civilian protesters bursting through a military border would not end up facing gunfire."

Well, they would in any other country in the world. Only Israel is assumed maybe not to fire on people who invade. It is only Israel where using women and children as human shields might work.
