victor regalado replied to Tracy Lentz's discussion 'Morality and Atheism'"I do not doubt that he wont agree that morality is product of evolution. He has faith in his biblical explanation. However, i recommend you as everybody else, that you should believe in what the evidences show, in the scientific explanation of…"
victor regalado replied to Tracy Lentz's discussion 'Morality and Atheism'"The Atkins argument against the existence of god was fallacious because of the second premise that claim that sciences could be omniscient. However, Craig responses was fallacious in many of his reasons:
1.Sciences can indeed prove logical and…"

victor regalado replied to Tracy Lentz's discussion 'Healing'"Well, there is nothing mystical about healing as B pointed out. However, meditation and moments of self reflexion is good because it brings you peace of mind. B. made a wonderful job in her posts, so i have nothing to add."
victor regalado replied to Tracy Lentz's discussion 'Morality and Atheism'"Morality does not come from god. Its an evolutionary by product. There are strong amount of evidences that support the idea that morality evolved as a product of reciprocity, altruism, cooperation and other traits that are present in Apes. Thus,…"
victor regalado left a comment for Julia"Thanks for adding me,julia. I became atheist at your age. I was a deist, Descartes convinced me with his god proof derived from the cogitatio assertion. Later on, i read about materialism, and then i became atheist(almost 17)."

if i understand you correctly- that the comment showed up but the hyperlink didn't- then that's not down to the person moderating comments. if she was moderating comments then the entire comment wouldn't show up unless and until she approved it.
you're welcome to try posting it on my page to see what happens. maybe then i can spot what's going on to prevent the comment from posting.

- you can either hyperlink the video or you can embed it directly into the comment.
to hyperlink the video you just use the fifth button from the right in the list of buttons available at the top of every comment window (if you mouse over the buttons it's the one that says "add hyperlink". once you do that and post it it should show up as a link in blue text. when you say you posted the video as a hyperlink and it didn't show up do you mean that the entire comment didn't show up or do you mean that your comment showed up but that it didn't include the hyperlink to the video? if your entire comment didn't show up it's possible that the member in question has chosen to moderate comments and so any comments that get posted to her page won't show up until she approves them (if she approves them).
the second method, embedding the video in the comment, is as easy as copying the embed code from the video's youtube page and then pasting it in the comment window. TA's forum software will recognize the code as a video embed and display it accordingly.

- ah, i see! no worries. did you figure out how to post a video as a comment to a member's page? if not i'd be happy to help you do that.
thanks for your prompt reply and understanding!

- hi Victor, i wanted to let you know that i unfortunately had to disapprove the video you recently attempted to post to TA. because people go to the Videos section for atheist/agnostic topical videos it is our policy to only allow topical content. we often stretch the definition of topical content so as to let as much content through as possible but a James Blunt music video of "You're Beautiful" just can't be considered topical at all.
we look forward to any other video submissions you might be interested in posting but please in the future keep them topical. if you have any questions about this or any other subject please don't hesitate to comment on my page or the pages of any of the other moderators.
thanks! hope you have a great weekend.

Anyway, Friday, I am busy most of the day but should be home in time to watch it live. I'm also busy Saturday and don't think I would be able to get to the city Sunday.

The title of the article is 'People will Asperger's less likely to see purpose behind the events in their lives'. I thought the comments below about logic were interesting and true.
