Unbelievers in the hands of an Angry God

I watched Monday Night Football in a tavern and missed the storm entirely.

The wind blew my garbage can fell over. I had better repent.

I need to repent of grammatical errors too.

I don't think we had any damage in my neighborhood and the kids all got out of school for the day. What does that say?

thor & the spirit of harald fairhair watch over you....

The story you linked showed Louisiana to be the most church-going state and Washington the least, which immediately brought to my mind the question: has anyone attempted to compare the states by moral and ethical behavior? Criminality, municipal and business corruption, illegitimacy, etc?
Because, for the two poles here at least, we might actually find an unexpected inverse relationship between "religiosity" (though perhaps not so fairly defined if merely by church attendance) and rule-following behavior.
Of course I then think of Utah, where both church attendance and law-abiding behavior are probably quite high.
By the way, the wind here in Seattle was biblical, accompanied by massive amounts of rain, the worst I've seen. Maybe it's time to start hedging my bets.

Hi,

I am trying to find information on what I term simultanious mutations. Now, my genetics is somewhat limited to say the least. What I am looking for, is any information or link to information with regard to the potential of an organism changing from one species to another, while in adulthood, either through radiation or what have you. Not unlike what a catapillar would go through, but not nearly that dramatic, however, still genetic in nature. Looking for this in the animal kingdom only.

Thanks.

The potential for that is zero.

A caterpillar does not change species, the caterpillar and the butterfly have the same genes. So it would be more accurate to say those changes are developmental, not genetic.

Now, my genetics is somewhat limited to say the least.

No ****** kidding.

I see,

Because it has never happened yet, it is not possible. Now, anyone out there that has an open mind, and perhaps has an ego that is over the age of 18 that would care to comment would be appreciated. In the unlikely event that this would happen, what would it take. I am particularily interested what it would take for a trait, non-physical in nature stop functioning. For the genious that took the vast amount of time and consideration in answering, you may want to recall that there are vast amounts of literature written by countless experts in the past all claiming that a particular event/feat/change or what have you would not, could not. would not or other wise was impossible to occur and then did. Have you forgotten what science was is all about? Take an english class and re-read the question, and stop trying to be "right" No wonder, cancer has not been beaten. I am a total new comer to this site, excited to have found it, asking a simple question. I get snubbed by an individual that with a huge confidence problem in need of making others feel less then himself who obviously is a closed minded, wet behind the ears nose wiping infintile with enough life experience to be dysfunctial at best. The world was never changed for the better by a pessimist, nor by individuals whom chose to put down people they have never met, while hiding miles away behind a screen doing it. I council people every day just like you, with them, I have to be nice, with you I just don't **** feel like it. Seek help.
