christian scientist = contradiction?

Posted By Alex (Jun) Chen

How the heck can you have Christian science, or any faith-based science, for that matter? Doesn't make much sense. Isn't the point not to overanalyze it?

Have you seen this letter to TIME?

Posted By Alex (Jun) Chen

"Evolutionists are trying to maintain a kind of dictatorship in our schools that allows for nothing but one theory and denies students the right to think for themselves. Evolutionists are un-American and are afraid that if intelligent design is discussed, students might take more interest in God than science."

I don't know what to say... cwy cwy cwy

Did Meade discontinue its famed 7" mak? I couldn't find it at many dealers.

Nietzsche

Posted By Alex (Jun) Chen

Anyone familiar with the Nietzsche superman? I was wondering...what did Nietzsche have to say about the religious superman, or did it just not exist in his opinion?

Bush's address

Posted By Alex (Jun) Chen

Watching this as I type is, indeed, a painful experience. I cannot believe that at this point, the administration still does not admit to making a mistake (blaming intelligence as always) and insists adamantly that invading Iraq assisted our cause in combatting terrorism. He shamelessly states that we, the American people, must bear the consequences of his actions and continues to claim that Saddam had some of the resources that could be used to build WMDs. How does such a man live with himself?

What do you say to the Latter Day Saints?

Posted By Alex (Jun) Chen

I feel very rude turning down the nice folks who make the ill attempt to convert me at my door, especially around the holidays. They are particularly determined around my neighborhood and come almost once every week now, even in cold weather, and to tell the truth, it's getting quite annoying. I've been giving them subtle suggestions to buzz off, but either they are either extremely dense or just don't respect my wishes at all. How do y'all handle these situations?

Has the management at Ap ever thought about putting up an IPO? I'd buy it.

NEED YOUR HELP PLEASE READ!!!!!!!!!!

Posted By Alex (Jun) Chen

I have the same problem. I think it's just the nature of schmidt-newt's. Check ur collimation, then shine a flashlight down your tube. Check to make sure that the three groups of two screws are all there. If u noticed from the manual, these collimate REALLY weirdly, in which the secondary is off center but the focus is on center. Hope that helps.
