Ohhh there was a great book about that. They'd take all those not born in Gods image and like got rid of them. I can't remember the title or the author, but the same guy wrote Day of the Triffids.

EDIT: It was the Chrysalids by John Wyndham.

Be taught as what? In sociology or RE? Maybe. As science? No, Creationism is in no way a scientific theory.

More and more these days religions(scientology, Raeliens etc...) are trying to slip under the radar through the disguise of science.

That's actually not true. It's actually quite common in mammals that are in cold climates. Look at the Labrador Retriever and the composition of it's fur and skin.

Qui, I am talking more generally when I say that I don't believe that you would not be more inclined to hire a person that more closely mirrors you. ITT we've been talking beliefs but this can apply to anything that mirrors you. Given 2 equally qualified candidates you're going to hire the person that more closely mirrors something in yourself. Back to the topic Tyrus started...This is also why avowed Atheists are at a distinct disadvantage when going for public office. If a candidate doesn't believe that their personal beliefs are relevant to the Race then they should keep quiet about it because what they think on the matter is irrelevant.

nono i don't think that labs or other cold weather mammals that dont spend time in water actually have the fat affixed to the skin instead of their muscle.

I think the discovery that a human's chromosome #2 is the creation of two Great ape genes fusing by the tetromeres, which would explain the 1 extra chromosome on their part, is a huge development. I forgot about that because the last time i watched the video was about half a year ago. That means we actually have the exact same number of chromosomes as apes, all the same information their but we just have two that are fused, causing one centromere to become inactive.
