"After having many cats hit & killed by careless drivers, I decided it would be no more outdoor cats after the last kitten was run over 25 years ago.
Every cat since has been an indoor cat & they've been just fine with it. They are also…"

Started yesterday 0 Replies 0 Likes
At this moment, NSA's top officers are testifying in a public hearing, claiming that Prism has stopped a number of terror plots. I won't comment on how seriously we should take their assertions. I'm…Continue

So far from what I've seen, I haven't found a reason to want a pair. Are you feeling an overwhelming need for a pair of glasses that can tell you that a jellyfish is a jellyfish?Do you really want to…Continue

I count myself as fairly liberal (when forced, I describe myself as at the liberal end of the libertarian spectrum, like Larry Flynt) and I'm certainly no particular admirer of the Bush family or…Continue

Mabel commented on Unseen's group 'Atheist Cats'"Oh I know Angela. It's so hard because you want to let your cat out to have outdoor fun but at the same time you don't want anything to happen to him. If something does happen the vet bills can be astronomical if he even manages to…"
Unseen replied to Sarah's discussion 'I want to get off now.' in the group Depression/ Bipolar Support"I went through a clinical depression that lasted 2 years. Eventually, I wandered out of it. (Many people who've been through a deep depression they are no longer in will understand the metaphor of "wandering out of it.")

Unseen replied to Brendan's discussion 'Budhism and Atheism'"That's religious horseshit.
Science has a methodology that involves proof. Proof even a skeptic can see. You're going to tell us that in order to experience nirvana we'd have to give up our skepticism.
I will allow that Buddhism has…"
Unseen commented on Unseen's group 'Atheist Cats'"Well, I have to trust Squeaky (a she BTW) to know better how to do kitty cat things. She's not exposed to other cats or dogs. She's not killing birds or small animals. She doesn't walk on the ledge a lot. In exchange, she gets fresh…"

Unseen that ledge is hair raising. I nearly had an attack of vertigo just looking at it. Dont let him.
My cat has now been made an inside cat - and he hates it but its for his own good.
He had the shit beaten out of him by several…"
Mabel commented on Unseen's group 'Atheist Cats'"Ha ha ha. Yes. Cats I have owned in the past loved doing the mole thing lol. I love all kitters!"
Unseen commented on Unseen's group 'Atheist Cats'"@Mabel - Squeaky was a rescue cat. I got her as a 4 mos old kitten from the city's animal shelter. I've never seen any indication they are a "no kill" shelter, though they were waiving their normal adoption fee due to being…"
Mabel commented on Unseen's group 'Atheist Cats'"@ Unseen - It's obvious my new cat was pre-owned. He is neutered and had a collar and is tame and somewhat affectionate.
When I take him to the vet I'll have them check for a chip but he was clearly very hungry when I took him in and was…"
Unseen commented on Unseen's group 'Atheist Cats'"@Mabel - One can be too protective of cats. Let your cat be a cat, I say. Squeaky is fixed, so she will never contribute to the feral cat problem, and I never had her declawed and she has plenty of scratching opportunities in the apartment. I…"
Mabel commented on Unseen's group 'Atheist Cats'"@Unseen - Cats will be cats. I had a cat that did the same thing. He never fell but it was scary to think about him falling.
I finally got a new kitty. I named him Fozzie. He was hanging around and he finally suckered me into taking him in. He…"
Unseen commented on Unseen's group 'Atheist Cats'"A while ago I started letting Squeaky out on my 6th floor apartment balcony. There is no place close enough she could try to go from there. I couldn't imagine what she could do that would make my heart stop, but finally she figured it out. She…"
Unseen replied to G's discussion 'Is your trust in science based on faith or based on science?'"I haven't read all the posts in this thread all the way though, so I ask in fear I may be repeating what someone else has said.

With more and more business moving to the Internet (not all of those empty storefronts are due to the economy), it is becoming more and more important to be a smart shopper.
So, you’re about to order that whole bean coffee, book, or external hard drive off Amazon, Newegg, or eBay and you see what you want has 4.5 out of 5 stars. Is this good?
Well, it depends. Does it have 5 ratings or 500? The lower the number of ratings, the more likely they were put there by the seller or…
Continue The Sins Of Texas
Posted on September 6, 2011 at 2:19pm 3 Comments 0 Likes
If God sends hurricanes to punish Miami and New Orleans for their sinful ways, it's time for Texas to do some soul searching given the preview of hellfire they are getting now. Maybe it's due to Gov. Perry's alleged closeted homosexuality and infidelities. Woe betide Texas!
The magic returns to science
Posted on August 10, 2011 at 1:07am 3 Comments 2 Likes
When I was in my youth, the world belonged to Aristotle as the father of hard-edged, logical, empirical science. Plato represented a view that the world of the senses is actually not real at all, but is just a reflection of a greatly different ultimate reality.
That was in the 1970's. A lot has happened since then in terms of our understanding of reality and it has implications for the relation of science and religion.
Christians like to say that science feels…

Your comments and those of the other prominent posters make me feel like I have found a place for clear thinking. Thanks for your posts, even the snarky ones. Cheers!
