what science comes easy to you if any?

RE: what science comes easy to you if any?
I love psychology and I decided to minor in it on a whim. I don't regret it at all.

I really enjoy watching documentaries on astrophysics and astronomy, too.

Would have to be astronomy for me. I'll just keep letting Stimbo tell you why, he's doing a grand job of it. LOL

Cheers for that. Big Grin I was worried I was over-egging it, myself, but when you have a passion for something (or someone) it's not always easy to know when to dial it back.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

The question was what science comes easy to you not what science easily comes out your ass.

I've got a grudging respect for people who call themselves creation scientists, actually. It's got to be one of the toughest jobs going. Think about it: they have to keep up with all the latest scientific literature to make sure they're at least twenty years behind. Then they have to twist the real-world science so that it no longer bears any recognisable relation to reality. Finally, they need the skills of the slimiest used car salesmen to sell this crap to an audience whose collective intellect and attention span requires words of less than one syllable. And all for the sake of pretending that a fairy tale is real.

Not to mention all the hard work studying at Patriot Bible College.

Is that place still going? I'd assumed they folded up into a black hole of embarrassment.

I was a chemistry major and math scholar once upon a time..Since then doctors have fried my brain with chemotherapy and pounded my will of knowing anything having to do with them, into the ground. Now I would rather do artSmile

If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

You mean you follow books like this:

Anyway, as for me, I'm a student and I'm taking a lot of biology classes so that's where I seem to be learning the most. That being said, I also have a facination with people in general. I like classes like psychology, sociology and history because I like learning about people.
I live on facebook. Come see me there. http://www.facebook.com/tara.rizzatto
