Mon Jul 25, 2011 1:28 PM EDT
Once upon a time, a very, very long time ago and as recently as Now, there lived a family who once understood reality. It may be they possessed a god gene or a predisposition toward seeking the underlying truth of existence.

Religion and the Evolution of Society
Thu Jul 21, 2011 8:52 PM EDT
Religion is a product of society and religious beliefs are only as enlightened as the societies that foster them. The most primitive belief systems are those that seek to circumvent catastrophic natural occurrences by appeasing the supernal powers that control them.

Help! We are being held prisoner on planet Earth!
Tue Jul 12, 2011 8:09 PM EDT
There is a theory circulating amongst many believers in visitations from outer space or parallel dimensions that we are being monitored and quarantined on this planet because we are somehow dangerous to the rest of the Universe.

Will Mankind Become Extinct?
Tue Jul 12, 2011 7:57 PM EDT

Sun Jul 10, 2011 4:17 PM EDT
We live in a universe whose fundamental physical laws and constants are uniquely predisposed toward life and the continuing evolution of intelligence. Our sun exists in a low-density, million-degree, ionized hydrogen gas anomaly in the interstellar medium that is bounded by a mag …

Faith: An Imitation of Thought
Sun Jul 10, 2011 4:00 PM EDT
According to Creationism, every species that ever lived, every inanimate object that ever existed and every natural process that ever operated appeared out of nothing within the time span defined as ‘6 days’. It is absurd to affirm that every thing from an inani …

Avalon

I dreamed I walked in Avalon, But all the streets were bareAs faded scenes in tapestriesWorn thin from time and careWhile sunlight glanced in every roomBut found no heroes there. I climbed the purple, heathered hillsAbove fair Morgan's HallAnd in their caves of mirrored light,I …

A Question of Balance: Good and Evil in the Anthropic Universe
Sat Feb 28, 2009 9:31 PM EST
The fundamental anthropic (observable) physical laws and constants of our universe appear uniquely predisposed toward life and the continuing evolution of intelligence - and are structured in such a way as to coax the emergence of life and intelligence from inanimate matter.

Who Serves The Grail?: The Arimatheac Dynasty
Tue Sep 9, 2008 10:25 AM EDT
Myth, legend and outright fabrication have always been part of our search for our ancestors; originally, the recitation of lineage back to a founding god was an important part of the proof that a king or chieftain ruled by "divine" right and almost every royal genealogy conta …

Myths of 19th Century Science: Darwinian Evolution
Tue Aug 19, 2008 2:06 AM EDT
"Over the last ten years, evidence of interbreeding as late as 50,000 years ago between modern humans and archaic species that were long believed extinct raises more questions than answers about the origins of modern humans and the extent of speciation within the genus Homo."

You have some awesome articles and comments. Finding this page was like a child finding a candy store! I will definitely be back.
Would you be interested in joining my new group, http://begreener.newsvine.com/ ?
Take care!— McSpocky
Nice attempt at a logical discussion with Upswing.I did not have the patience this time for another discussion spun with conspiracy theories,opinions and conjecture and totally void of logic,reason and comprehension.I have seen several try with the same end result.
Every time I see an anthropology article on Newsvine, I always hope you have commented on it. Your comments are usually more detailed, informative, and interesting than the articles!
Looking forward to more articles from you!
I have to agree with NewsBlog903. I love your profile remarks. I wish I could have met you on the vine under more pleasant circumstances, but am glad you have made your acquaintance. I'm sure interesting, and less dire, conversations are in our future!
Your writing challenges my mind to think, and I appreciate that immensely. I look forward to reading more from you.
