You know what makes liberals mad? The fact that Dinosaurs died and made room for man.

Once I figured out how to get the straight jacket off, the orderlies weren’t that hard to out-run.

My problem is the opposite. They keep trying to take the thing off and I keep trying to put it back on. I’ve really been enjoying the Barnaby Jones reruns they show here at the, uh, farm.

The odds of two asteroids in the vastness of space colliding within the gravitational pull of earth has to be monumentally hugh.

And I STILL love how these ‘asteroids’ only targeted dinosaurs! All other life on this planet escaped harm...

What about the theory that they mostly died of a global deluge ?

That religious belief was abandoned by early creationist geologists--who were trying to prove the global flood--about 1830.

Reverend Adam Sedgwick, Woodwardian Professor of Geology at Cambridge University, and President of the Geological Society of London.

An article describing the capitulation of the last major holdout for the global flood in geology (made during a speech on February 18, 1831) appears here.

All we can say is this ONE man capitulated. But to say he is the last major holdout ignores the fact that we have major groups still in existence today who have not capitulated and are in fact still trying to prove this theory.

Rusty: Do you have Asteroids?

Dale: No, but my dad does. He can't even sit on the toilet some days.

I never read him so I can't say. Wasn't he writing about planets and not asteroids in particular?

I'm not saying planets can't collide (in fact they now think that's how the moon was created), but that was very early in the history of the solar system. I think mainstream scientists believe things have been pretty stable since those early days of the "heavy bombardment," at least when it comes to planets.

Nope, we're talking about evidence-based science.
