[Evolution] cannot be the whole picture. The basic tenet behind evolution is that a mutation helps an organism survive better and thus is kept. How does this explain the reproductive system? Without pretty much every part of the male and female anatomy working perfectly, none of it would help an organism survive, and in fact some argument can be made that requiring a baby to be carried around and live birth to happen hurts survivability.

Not to browbeat you or anything, but this here is called an "argument from ignorance". You can't say "I don't know how Y could come to be, therefore X must be true". That's a logical fallacy. "I don't know how such-and-such could evolve, therefore something else must be also acting to produce new species."

"I don't know" cannot be used as evidence of anything.

I'm 100% certain that killing your own child for backtalking (Exodus 21:17, Leviticus 10:9) is not "the best thing for yourself".

The sooner the entire world can bury all their holy books in the trash heap of history, the better.

Give the MAFIAA and the Pirates adjoining cells and let the mainstream have their internet back.

Um, the "Pirates" are the mainstream...

Are we sure that it was Apple and not Siri itself that made the change?

The Internet surveillance legislation sponsored by Public Safety Minister Vic Toews has disappeared down a dark legislative hole.

I would have preferred if Vic Toews himself disappeared down a dark hole, but I'll take what I can get.

It's possible that the free distribution of existing child porn over the internet is probably the best thing that could happen (short of a cure) re: the problem of pedophilia. With its ease of accessibility, supply becomes high, resulting in, one would guess, a reduced chance for someone afflicted with pedophilia to use actual children to satisfy his desires, much in the same way that "normal" internet porn may reduce the occurrence of rape.

What pedophiles need is help, especially when evidence proves that some pedophilic urges are caused by physical problems and can be cured by surgery . (I'm not saying all pedophilia has physical causes; it seems obvious that much of it is caused by psychological problems during adolescent development)

the reason alcohol is legal is that it's so simple to make

I'd have to disagree on that one. Growing pot is far easier than making alcohol, yet it's illegal.

There have to be other reasons...
