And as IANS is no doubt aware, in Hispanic America the title is "licenciado." I'm sure you're aware that's just Buckspeak and his attempt at implying some sort of equivalence or equal status in matters of the law with yourself and the legal system at large. He did the same type thing here: Buck Crick wrote: If my views are so mistaken, it seems someone could give a substantive objection to me, Behe, or Minnich. "me, Behe, or Minnich" LULZ.... If this was a thread concerned with music, he'd be making statements like : "Me Waylon and Willie"

Over here in the USA, SCOTUS has ruled that in public schools there should not be prayer because (and say this several times so it sticks in your head) it is an ENDORSEMENT of one religion over another. However, in the USA, we have the RIGHT to practice whatever religion (or not) we want to practice and to ASSOCIATE with those with whom we share (e.g.) a common religion. If private (e.g., Catholic) schools want to open and close every class they have during the day with a prayer - over here in the USA - they can (and should) be able to do that. Study the First before you post again.

Blacks Americans make up 12% of the U.S & make up 52% of the murders in the U.S. African Americans score a 85 IQ. Only 16% of African Americans score an IQ of 100 or higher. 1 in 3 African American males will go to jail in their lifetime. Half of African Americans have an STD. Black people are simply a "risk" There maybe a small few of decent smart Blacks. The reality is that most Blacks are a detriment & liability. Just like schizphrenia is logical. The brain cuts off dopamine to the prefrontal cortex for a reason, right? Stop acting like you have the first clue about the brain or human behavior. It's like you took psyc 101 as taught

So that they were probably talking about the Modern world of civilization starting 6,000 yrs ago. It was probably a misunderstood / mistranslated qoute. (That is my guess) Well, just so you know, your guess is wrong. Civilization started longer than 6000 years ago.

It aint necessarily so wrote: <quoted text> The Catholic Church is a bad neighbors, and more or less disliked by most non-Catholics. I literally had a Catholic Church as a next door neighbor and they were great neighbors. In our town they feed the homeless. I am not aware of any atheist groups that do this. Unless you want to count the single atheists who donate their time by working in the Catholic soup kitchens.

Then I just got the f*ck out of there after a minute or 2. They also got out of there too Because I didn't want the cops to do. I think they did too. Because I saw them speed out awefully quick in their chromed out WOP mobile. LOL Do you like Tap Out shirts?

timn17 wrote: <quoted text>I'm going to put this very simply for you because I know that you are very volatile and do not react well to argument. It does not occur because the "right brain is illogical." First of all, sweeping distinctions about the right and left sides of the brain fell out of favor, I don't know 60 or so years ago, but popular science has ran with it and old ideas are still passed off as truth to people like you. Anyways, put very simply, it occurs because the part of the brain that plans movement is separated from the part that executes it, usually because the corpus callosum is severed. Yes Alien hand syndrome is caused by a severed or damaged corpus callosum. Which leads to the right & left brain hemisphere's acting seperately rather than a team as they usually would through corpus callosum transfer. This causes the right brain to act illogical! As this causes Alien Hand Syndrome & the Right brain can cause the Left hand to act illogically & strangle themselves, strangle or slap others without control. In which when they covered the left eye (Controlled by the right brain) of someone with Alien Hand syndrome. The right brain couldn't function logically & would act irrationally without control. Liberals are more right brained. Atheists seem to be more right brained as atheism comes from the right brain as evidence supports.

Your comments above are utter nonsense - hence you lack evidence of any kind and just keep shouting the same nonsense over and over. Evolution is not change in allelic frequency... Evolution is the creation of new genetic information over time, i.e., MUTATIONS. Why do I have to keep giving you biology 101 lessons? A turnip can be selectively bred to a rutabaga by changing allergic frequencies. A turnip cannot be slectively bred to a rhinocerous, because new genetic information would be required.

Because all the evidence I know is that Schizophrenia is typically linked to very high levels of Dopamine. Although the Catatonic type of Schizophrenia might be sometimes low dopamine. As this Catatonic type of behvaoir seems to be more characteristic of a low dopamine behavoir. Cataatonic Schizophrenia is quite different than other Schizophrenia's like Paranoid Schizophrenia.

HugeKielbasa wrote: <quoted text> The Mexicans are coming to slowly become the dominant ethnicity in the U.S through mass immigration + higher birth rates. Pretty simple That is the issue with lower IQ groups flooding the West. They have higher birth rates in the West & start to take over the West. Mexican Americans did score a 88 IQ While Mexico scored a 87 IQ African Americans scored a 85 IQ Assuming your information is correct, it still means nothing. IQ is not the be all end all indicator of intelligence, it can be a valuable tool, but it can be heavily biased.

Civilization started longer than 6000 years ago. 6,000 yrs ago is close to the time period when the Mesopotamia civilization erupted with writing. So 6,000 yrs ago is very close to the time period when modern civilization came to be. Judeo Christianity is heavily linked to Mesopotamia. Actually Noah's Ark & The Garden of Egen stories come from Mesopotamia.

HTS wrote: <quoted text>You are making philosophical assumptions that cannot be made. I believe in a perfect God. I don't presume to know what his purposes were in creation of species. If God made everything perfect and there was no hardship or suffering in the world, there would be no purpose to life. If everything was equally beautiful, no one could appreciate beauty. We also know through science that the genomes of all species are deteriorating over time. Adam might have been a far more perfect human than man is today, because his DNA would have been superior. I don't believe that God is "all powerful" in the sense that he can literally do anything. He cannot defy immutable laws of the universe. If that were true, there would have been no purpose for man to come to earth to be tested, and no purpose for the atonement of Christ. A grave error that has been made by evolutionists is the presumption that any version of intelligent design conforms to a specific religious doctrine. COME ON! Why do people try to say that ID is not religiously motivated? Why?

Catcher1 wrote: Those were my own words. I will take your statement as a compliment to my articulation.
Inasmuch as I deem ID to be a shill for religion, I already explained why the Constitution requires its ban from our public schools. The Constitution (the one we have in the USA) does not require a ban of the teaching of ID (or even religion) in public school. Dummy. Perhaps you should try to articulate less and understand more before speaking again.

What would indicate that Hispanics or Blacks are as intelligent as Whites, East Asians or Ashkenazi Jews? The IQ data, PISA score data & SAT scores support that Hispanics & Blacks are less intelligent. As does their amount of intellectual achievements. Which are heavily boasted especially with Afrcan Americans in Black history month. Which is mostly exgerations & lies.

The term 'counselor' is used every single day in courts throughout the USA- especially when judges are addressing lawyers.

Which is what you seemed to be implying about black people and the amygdala (our brain knows they are evil, so it makes us scared).
