  • While were on the subject of evolution, here’s some stuff on a galactic level that will really bake your noodle. Just look at this picture first. At first glance it’s stars, but it ISN’T. Those smears of light are galaxies, so far away we’re seeing them as they were billions of years ago. The distance…

  • Darwinism is probably one of the best pieces of thinking any human has ever done. Like the best ideas, it seems so beautifully simple now. The basic of successful species surviving thanks to evolving better to suit their environment – at the expense of those that haven’t- can be applied to far more than biology.…
