Uh, why do you put a bunch of blank lines in your post? To make responding to it a huge pain in the @ss? First, evolution starts AFTER the first self-replicators, so you're just completely wrong that you're talking about evolution at all. Second, only a completely brainless person thinks that...

As a good speller, you realize that "sounding words out" simply doesn't work for a huge hunk of our vocabulary. You're right, she's BS-ing. The fact that you can spell well does NOT mean that you read by sounding everything out. All good readers grasp most of what they read by recognizing whole...

????? Does it? End times? Yeah, yeah. That's been predicted as "any day now" hundreds of times, and they were ALWAYS wrong. Why anyone would believe a book obviously written by crazy people is beyond me.

Of course not. The Earth has always had volcanos. Uh, PUNY? There are more than 6 billion of us. That we've had a dramatic effect on the Earth and the atmosphere is indisputable by any SANE being.

They meant anyone ELSE. Of course you can discuss it with the company. The reason they had you sign the statement was so that no one OUTSIDE the company would know anything about the test -- like competitors, for instance.

No. Uh, climate change is ONE "driving force" behind evolution; usually slow climate changes, not changes that happen this fast. WE have created this change. Allowing it to continue would cause immeasurable suffering and death. Thus, we need to reverse it. Stopping the climate change we're...

When they can use the tools developed by scholars to understand whatever they need to understand as they go through life. (Edited to improve wording)

You'll need a Bachelor's degree, which generally takes 4 years, full-time, then a teaching credential (I THINK a couple more years). The best thing to do is go to websites of some colleges you're considering, and look at what they say about the requirements for a Secondary Teaching Credential...

I'm sorry to hear it's not much mentioned in history books. But your analogy is flawed. The German genocide immediately preceded its loosing it's war. Our genocide was not committed by any living person, but by people who lived more than a century ago. Germany did not "fall" in the sense of...

In some ways. The fact that it's women who get pregnant, and have mammary glands has effected the roles they've been given. The fact that "mama's baby; papa's maybe" is so has also effected society's treatment of men and women.

No one with any brain at all takes that "debate" seriously. Clearly, we are born with traits and inclinations; clearly our experience influences us. It's absurd to think ONLY one of those factors exists. No, that's not an accurate characterization of sociologists I've read or heard of. One...

Pure socialism isn't on the table; the people who keep telling you the media are socialists, or that our government is now run by socialists are hate-mongering liars. People who have brains and use them realize that a mixed economy is better for everyone. It's not Obama who thinks he has the...

Doing social science is studying people, doing research,adding to our understanding of social phenomena. Social work involves helping people directly. Things like seeing that foster homes are stuitable, helping the poor get job training, or getting people various other kinds of help. (I'm not...

Uh, why would one expect our media to have been paying any attention to Iran's internal stuff? I'm just happy they usually pronounce it right.

????? What do you expect him to do? Invade and murder millions? That would help HOW? No, what's going on there doesn't seem normal to him. What hate-mongering moron told you that? The last thing we need is to seem to be interfering, or siding with either party right now. He has spoken...

I see what you mean. But the purpose is to make the case for the audience, so THEY get it.
