Affiliate Marketing Secrets

Our brains are wired to be curious, ingenuitive, and much more. I have a theory that humans are “designed” by evolution to be the “transporters” of life (much like how seeds evolve to spread) – to spread the seed of life into space in case of some catastrophic event beyond the Earth’s power to avoid. At the same time I believe we have been distracted by toilsome endeavorers (the stuff our economies are made of) I know this might sound nutty to some but Carl Sagan had similar thoughts. I know evolution doesn’t think, but look at a sprout, see how it follows the sun? Well, now just imagine that if the entire organism that is Earth (the thing that gave birth to all life on it) has similar tendencies as a single plant or animal, a “force” guiding it towards survival. Sure we may be screwing up, but there’s no guarantee a species will fill its niche (purpose). I brought this up to a Christian friend and he told me that if he’s wrong about the existence of his God that maybe that’s why we long for places like Heaven, and why we feel we’re “stewards”. Your thoughts?

“involvuntary indentured servant” screams euphemism all over it, but people still use it to refer to the many servants that did not even choose to do labor abroad (kidnapped mostly children and women, prisoners who were purposely “guilty” of the most trivial and ridiculous crimes, trickery, etc) Even the contracts of the *voluntary* servant immigrants were routinely broken, completely contradicting to the very meaning of being an “indentured servant”.It’s not like it’s some big “secret” or “conspiracy theory”, it’s well documented. The only real difference between the history of slavery and indentured servitude is that you can hide behind shady marketing as a scapegoat to the white ones.

I’m not complaining, but what do you think caused this cultural shift? A few decades ago it seems it was normal for both sexes to have a bit of a jungle down below. Now, both sexes are expected to trim the hair down there. Women are held to this expectation even harder than men, and their “muffs” now seem to be a relic of a bygone era. I’ve heard that porno is responsible for this shift, and that it carried over to the mainstream from there. I’m inclined to think that theory is plausible because porn has made a lot of niche sexual activities less taboo. What do you think?

I’ve never seen a log start foaming before. My only theory is maybe there was some kind of fungi or lichen on the log that made it react to the heat that way. The only part I saw foaming was the tip end of the log, not the side of the log where lichen or some other kind of fungi is usually visible. The end of the log looked perfectly normal (no fungi or niches) aside from the foaming.
Thanks in advance for your theories!

A group of Louisiana citizens, believed to be backed by the conservative Christian Louisiana Family Forum, are attacking the state’s proposed biology textbooks because, well, they teach too much evolution.
The Baton Rouge Advocate reported this week that a state panel is scheduled to review the issue Friday after the state’s school board held off adopting the biology I and biology II textbooks due to the complaints.
Winston White, one of the residents who complained about the books, said, “It’s like Charles Darwin and his theory is a saint. You can’t touch it.”
It’s worth noting that White is the son of Darrell White, who was one of the Louisiana Family Forum founders. This move is all part of an ongoing broader strategy, one that the LFF, which is affiliated with Focus on the Family, has been behind since the beginning.
Darrell White also told the Advocate that the textbooks don’t comply with the anti-evolution law known as the “Louisiana Science Education Act,” which the Family Forum helped write and successfully lobbied for in 2008. The LSEA instructs educators to promote “critical thinking skills, logical analysis, and open and objective discussion of scientific theories being studied including, but not limited to, evolution, the origins of life, global warming, and human cloning.” It also allows teachers and school districts to use “supplemental textbooks,” which are just code words for creationist and pro-intelligent design materials.
Barbara Forrest, a philosophy professor at Southeastern Louisiana University, co-founder of Louisiana Citizens for Science and one of the creationist movement’s most damning critics, said she believes the complaints are merely a tactic to get disclaimers (Warning: These books teach evolution!) added to the textbooks, or pave the way for the inclusion of creationist supplemental materials.
Other people who lodged complaints said they did so because the books didn’t teach intelligent design.
In written comments to state officials, David Mathers, of West Monroe, said he would “like to see intelligent design explained as an alternate theory to the theory of evolution.”
Curt Eberts, of Monroe, made the same point. He faulted a biology textbook he reviewed for lacking material on the concept of intelligent design.
