Saw one of those random quizzes, with the title "Are you smarter than an Athiest?".
Apparently on a survey, atheists scored 21/32 on a religion quiz, whilst catholics for example scored 14/32.
Considering I scored 32/32, I am surprised those scores are not higher (admittedly, 1 was luck based on being familiar with a name).
I scored 1/32 because I think your link takes you to the last question!Quote:

Seemed like a quiz for kids, average score in 84%.

Theoretically, even one gene-drive–engineered organism could crash an entire population.
That possibility terrified some people when they learned about the yellow fruit fly experiment. If a gene-drive–containing organism were to escape from the lab and start breeding with its wild counterparts, it could irrevocably alter the wild population. Maybe even wipe it out.
Whoah.
You're right, my mistake! Corrected it.Quote:

This should be in the What are you listening right now thread, but it stresses my line too much to post it there https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2KvI3ESFNc from 23:00, good set, great for lounch.
Screw you facebook for reminding me of old pictures. That's my cat Nero who was my best buddy for 22 years. I am totally in tears right now thanks

Which wags first, the dog or the tail?
I got The Conquest of the Last Maya Kingdom by Grant D. Jones for Christmas this year. Apparently the Itza Maya weren't conquered until 1697, so unlike the Aztecs and the Inca the Itzas had a lot of familiarity with Spanish colonialism. This should be an interesting read.
RIP Lemmy.
Got lots of comic books, so I'm happy.
2016 will be the year of reckoning for me.
Apparently I am 100% humanist. I would be surprised if I scored low.
I scored 24%. I wasn't a big fan of that quiz, for most of the questions I could have picked two answers but the quiz only lets you choose one, so it creates a false dichotomy. For example, I believe the universe is a natural place that is best understood by science and I believe it was created by God as part of a plan. As far as I can tell these two statements are not contradictory, because my religion does not explain how the universe/nature works it only tells me that God created it.
Its been a number of years. It still affects me even though I don't come here anymore.
I promised myself I would do this after I heard, but...I have no excuse. Its been done finally though.
Ja mata.

Got a really considerate message from him when a family-member was sick. Never knew he was sick as well at the time. Gone but not forgotten.
My mind has been rather blank despite a myriad of things I have been doing. I find it rather peculiar. My thoughts are either non existent or I have the inability to articulate them comprehensibly. Excuse me while I enjoy a fugue.
How can the temperature be -7,2° at 11:00? That's ridiculous.
Bought a nice photobook about skyscrapers and decided that 'skyscraper' is the most awesome English word. Perfectly reflects the ambition to build as high as possible.
I often wonder what my life would be like if I hadn't been misled and if instead I took a path that I should've taken.
Who leaves dirty dishes in the sink for four days and deny that they are yours?
Im beginning to mildly dislike my flatmates.
Typical student behaviour.Quote:

This is why it's hard for the students to find an apartment to live in. Some of them gave bad impressions to the owners when those students trashed their rooms.
I used to drop the dirty dishes in the living-room and clean the kitchen. I am pretty serious about hygiene.Quote:

This world needs more sandbox PvP MMORPGs. And yea, make it medieval fantasy (with bloody cherry on top <3 )
