Actually, scientists are postulating that the Y chromosome is decaying, which makes sense, since it is a mutation of the X chromosome in the first place. There have been some studies done with mice that have used genetic material from an egg to fertilize another egg like a sperm would -- thereby making a male-less mammal pregnancy. Of course, no such studies have been done in higher mammals, but it's intriguing anyway.

Reply to So, I'm Going to Hell in Religion JoeUser Forums

Since I gave up religion, as well as other harmful vices, my life has been much calmer. Seeking to treat others with kindness and respect not for hope of any reward nor fear of punishment, but just because it's the right thing to do has been very liberating. I find myself having much less resentment in the way I act toward people, because when I'm kind to them, I am kind for their sake and mine, not because of any outside influence. Many have said t

Would Iraq be better off today if it was in the control of Saddam Hussein? In what terms? In terms of having regular electricity and water? In terms of not having constant air strikes and foreign troops patrolling the streets? The answer would then be "no" In terms of no more brutal

You can get Advantage or Frontline for puppies I believe. I know they make a Revolution that can be used on kittens, so they probably have a puppy version as well. He sounds sweet, though. I'm a pet fanatic, 2 dogs and 8 cats -- miraculously they all get a long (most of the time). Good luck with the training!

Reply to KERRY THE COWARD-HEARTED... in Politics JoeUser Forums

Kerry actually served 2 tours of duty for a total of 11 months. His stint on the Swift Boat was his second tour. Not that it really matters. And the shrapnel was not supposed to be in his "rear" it is in his arm. Was the Vietnam war ever "Mission Accomplished?" Seems like we lost that one. Unless I'm mistaken and South Vietnam WASN'T taken over by communists. I normally don't post on inflammatory articles like this one. It d

'This war is illegal!' says Kofi Annan Is it as illegal as the money that Kofi and his son Kojo skimmed off the top of the UN Oil for Food program with the help of France, Russia, Germany and others? Kofi Annan saying that something is illegal is quite like the Son of Sam decrying serial killers.</font

Reply to Inflammatory Title in Blogging JoeUser Forums

yeah, but where does it end? should I now post something along the lines of "I've recently discovered the perfect formula for tearing apart the way someone else wrote a post?" Then you could post one back "I've recently discovered the perfect formula for sticking it to some schmuck who couldn't take a joke." I don't know, is fighting fire with fire always the best bet? Could be. The blessed anonymity of the net seems to bring out the wor

Maybe that is why they tend to hate people who actually do have power... While true for some liberals, I think liberals are really against abuses of power. Of course, you have your anarchists on the far far left, but every party's got that loud, obnoxious drunk, doesn't it? I agree that it d
