Strawman. Also, completely missing the point. Again; wouldn't you be better off fighting the unjustices of true religion (mutilated children, child marriages, withholding medication due to religious reasons) rather than attacking a holiday in which children are getting gifts and people are more charitable than the rest of the year, regardless of motivation? It just seems like a giant waste of time and energy.Please do tell how lying and deceiving a child to acquire personal gain will teach them to follow an honest moral compass?

People in general are smart enough not to donate to this fraud. How on Earth does that make him any more credible?
Where are the hard evidence any of this happened? "Frank said so" does not count.

No. Ignoring, for a moment, the impossibleness of SHC, the lack of tangible evidence, lack of doctor's reports and lack of photographs of the burns, and we're left with a Frank Baker who either doesn't exist, or is a liar.
Frank Baker faced death while earning two Purple Hearts in Vietnam, but the scariest moment of his life came in June 1995.

Edit: Also, the TV show this is from is an entertainment show, not a documentary show.

Quite right, bad wording on my part.Actually it would just be evidence of teleportations - they could be scientific as opposed to magical in nature.

If there's something there, which can only be found there, but can be brought back, that means it can also be relocated by other means.
Also, even if there was an item that could only be moved by this magical teleportation you suggest, it wouldn't be evidence of a god. It would, at the very best, be evidence of magical teleportations.

Where in the Quran does it say this? What other sources have you used?

For me, it's not about signs, it's about evidence.
As for your hypothetical scenario, it would be evidence of a strange event which would be interesting to investigate. God? Not really, as there are likely to be more plausible explanations.
All this assuming, of course, that there are evidence of me actually being at home to begin with, so I didn't just imagine it. Also, I'd have to be quite certain someone didn't plant the item without me knowing.

Does a white sheet of paper have a surface? If so, what colour is it?"But" those are surfaces not paper, is this correct to compare???
How would the answer affect your reasoning?

"This is not a glare from the sun, nor is it an artifact of the photo process."
I'll suspend that judgement until I can have a look at a higher res pic.

Yes, it's a joke, but not the way you think. Or actually, the way you think is.So if gays know that it will hurt,but still go to the parade,it turns out that they are not only gay but masochists?this is a joke
Are you honestly so morally corrupt that in the case of protestors attacking a gay pride parade, you blame the people in the parade for being out at all? You know, demonstrating for equal rights for everyone?
You really need to either learn English, or start spreading your propaganda on Russian sites instead. Because it's obvious you're not taking in a single thing that's been said here, and I suspect it's due to the language barrier.Yes,it is possible case of violence there,but very few of them
Do you also think it's okay with slaves, as long as there's only like 15 of them?Here in the times of Putin's you about 10-20 people who have been persecuted from 150 000 000 Russians
So what? Two wrongs don't make a right.In the times of Joseph Stalin there was just killing everything at once,and all these your 10-20 people live,and live better than many

Read up.Gay nobody hurts
if you tell that you're gay,it is unlikely that you someone insults you

Russian version, as far as I can tell: http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9F%D1%80%D0%B5%D1%81%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%B4%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B5_%D0%B3%D0%B5%D0%B5%D0%B2,_%D0%BB%D0%B5%D1%81%D0%B1%D0%B8%D1%8F%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%BA,_%D0%B1%D0%B8%D1%81%D0%B5%D0%BA%D1%81%D1%83%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%B2_%D0%B8_%D1%82%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%B3%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B4%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B2
There's a big difference between a gay pride parade and a programmers parade. Nobody is persecuting programmers because they are programmers. And nobody is throwing lawyers in jail for being lawyers (arguable, but still). So, I'd wager, for a lot of people, the parades are a way of bringing this persecution to light.but people against propaganda gay
there is no objective meaning,to arrange parade!
Let's have a parade football fans, or fans of beer
Then today we will parade lawyers,tomorrow will be a parade of programmers,after tomorrow the parade of masochist
Sure, it would be great if they wouldn't need it, and would simply be able to live their own lifes. But as long as people are hurting and killing them because their sexual preference, that's not going to happen. One can argue whether a parade is the best way to do it, but something needs to be done, which is even more apparent because of your statements in this thread.

Would we be able to support a population that lives longer (effectively increasing the amount of concurrent people on the planet), seeing as we've got some problems supporting what we've got?

Soak it in a bath consisting of water and a dishwasher tablet (this kind) for a few hours or through the night. Those things work magic with resistant stains on utensils and whatnot. Coffee mugs become crystal clear, for example.
No guarantees it'll work on ink, but at least I don't think it'll hurt the material.

Personally, I'm pretty satisfied with your summary, so thank you. Naturally, to get the full picture one would probably have to dig deeper, but now we've got at least the basic idea.
Forgive me for questioning motives while going through the above, but is your reason to post this information solely that of spreading awareness of these events? Or is this something you'd like to have a discussion about - repression of science, threats against scientific journals etc?

Rule 2.7, the part about being able to participate without clicking links. You've posted a few times, being angry about some kind of defamation? And I, personally, really still have no idea what, exactly, has happened. Who said what to who?

I'm on a phone at the moment, so can't try, but the [ code] tag might work.

That is a good point, except some people never seem to learn from their mistakes. I'm in strong agreement with ACG52."Science isn't about determining who is right or wrong. It is learning from one's mistakes and making discoveries from such mistakes"(can't remember the exact quote, but it gets to the point).

One book I found, which seems to be pretty much what you want, is "Hacking the Future: Privacy, Identity and Anonymity on the Web" by Cole Stryker. I haven't read it myself, but the reviews seem generally positive.

Well, the first step, I guess, would be to figure out the frequency of the universe. Do you know it?

Care to enlighten us on this evidence of yours then?

Your numbers are lacking units, and are also wrong.Take Plancks' Constant - c = h x f from Pythagoras/Angles of pentagram we get 432 (base frequency) 300000000/432 = 694444.44recur which just happens to be the radius of the sun.
...
Look at Jupiters radius - is it not the vacuum cleaner of the solar system with a radius of 69910

Buying complete set-up defeats the object On the wind up side - I had started to consider that; maybe I should switch back
Sometimes, the journey really is the goal. I really think you should give it a go, just for the hell of it. That doesn't mean you can't use premades as a source of informationor inspiration.
But one thing; if you decide on a buzzer or horn, don't place it on your helmet unless you're sure it won't cause permanent hearing damage.
