Journal Journal: Links of the day: 13th century work about nature of matter 3
A friend sent me a link to a synopsis of work done on a 13th century treatise that has theories about cosmology very close to the Big Bang and Mutliverse theories.
It's amazing how the old is new. Or is that the new is old?
Journal Journal: Moderator Points: Fairy just visited fans
It's amazing how many friends and fans i have that no longer post. Well, on second thought, it actually isn't that amazing. But, when i sent the voting fairy to do her job, she had a hard time finding posts to moderate!
Nonetheless, she got the job done. Though, noone left her any presents under their posts.

Which is why all those Africa nations that has had so many good Christians go over there and help them for over a thousand years (with no help from those atheists, according to the article smitty linked) is now so prosperous
Once upon a time, young liberal padawan, there was a country called Rhodesia that was the "Breadbasket of Africa", easily producing enough food to make the country a net exporter, and creating 400,000 jobs.
Then a Marxist named Robert Mugabe took over and turned it into a shithole called Zimbabwe.
So don't blame missionaries for trying to help, blame Statists for fucking things up like they always do.

I'm at work so I don't have time to wade through all the comments, but you might look at http://www.pulselink.com/ They do ethernet over coax, which if I recall goes well over gigabit speeds in some cases.

Simple -- Because Karl Marx realized that religious people would never submit to an all powerful State when they were praying to the all Powerful God. In other words, Christians living their faith, giving money to the poor and other corporal works of mercy don't need a nanny state to take care of them.
Karl Marx's biggest enemy? The Catholic Church.

No, Texas does not have an Open Carry law permitting the open carry of hand guns in public. On your property, open carry away. You can open carry a long gun (rifle, shotgun, even the "scary" AR-15) but we can't openly carry hand guns.... yet.

Not you Texas, your gun laws suck.
As someone who lives in Texas, our gun laws are pretty good with one notable exception -- we need an Open Carry law for hand guns. Otherwise, we can own / carry just about any gun.

I used Synergy when i switched to the Mac, though i hardly ever turn the Windows box on anymore. I suppose i will use it again should i get a new box, which has a good chance of being Linux again. And Synergy works everywhere, they're awesome.

yet he left the Nazis and Commies alone
Have you ever read the entirety of the Old Testament? There were times when God allowed the Jews to be conquered to teach them a lesson. Have you considered the possibility that the American GI was doing God's Will when stomping the Nazi's? (Well, stomping them enough that they went underground and re-emerged as "Progressives" or "liberals".)
God does exist, and he does loves us, but not in the way most people think... or find comfortable.
Telling us that we're incapable of getting to Heaven on our own and sending His only begotten Son to die in our place seems like just the thing an infinite Love would do.

Except there is no evidence in the fossil record to support this, either.
In your example, divergent populations B and C are still fertile with each other.
A great example is the artificial construct of race in humanity. Groups that diverged based on isolation and adapted based on climate, yet any fertile male and any fertile female can still produce offspring.
