hi I'm 22 years old, been trying one course after another, and guess what?!?! the REALITY is, one can't get too settled on a argument against Reality can he/she? anyway...

my family's anglican but I myself have been having doubts since I was ten. I just don't like the idea of putting faith in something that has murdered people for doing something they thought was 'spiritually' godlike. I do understand their concepts but I still see all sorts of contradictions, one after another. so I'm basically at the moment going with "I know there's something, but I'm not going after it" stage. what I mean is, I don't want to identify it. I don't want to acknowledge it as catholic or science, I don't want to philosophise it or pull at it like a scab. I just want to play with it.

As for that GM argument. As once-a-biologist, I think it's ridiculous. we've been evolving and we've been adapting, there's been problems like the black plague and whatnot. I don't think we should have an issue with it. after all we've got the population explosion, it should do us right for overdoing it again! I understand that I'm stating MY argument. I'm saying, my argument make arguments mentioned by the articles, irrelevent. However, this is a science argument, a biological/chemical argument and since I don't major it, I chose to be ignorant.

"be careful what you wish for..."
I was just thinking that for a bit. just liked the mystery invoked in that statement.

Miss Eggy
