Not really a topic, but I just wanted to say hello to Rrhain. I haven't seen him here in a long time. Good to have you back, Rrhain!

Re: Blink
Rrhain emulated a quantum fluctuation, it seems. Out of the blue, he blinked into existence, and very soon afterwards was gone again. But not before the cosmos (read: "EVC-forum") noticed. Let's prepare a bubble chamber and try to catch his trail next time he comes along.

Teaching you the stuff that this forum is about is impossible without attacking your belief system. And what's this about "just as bad as sending people to hell"? That seems like a very childish thing to say.
rrhain was a smart person, albeit an emotional one.
You talk about him as if he's dead. He's not.
I found his emotions dictate who and what he presented himself to be.
So he is not at all unlike you then?
I'd pull him from a burning car if it came down to it.
It sounds as if Rrhain just barely meets the criteria to be eligible for being pulled from a burning car. Surely you're not saying that there are people here whom you would not pull from a burning car, are you? Even to contemplate the very idea of deciding whether a person does or does not merit a favourable decision in a burning car situation seems very un-Christian to me.
But then again, there's Fred Phelps of course, who's God hates fags (or so he says), so it's Christian is as Christian does, I guess.

"Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science." - Charles Darwin.
Did you know that most of the time your computer is doing nothing? What if you could make it do something really useful? Like helping scientists understand diseases? Your computer could even be instrumental in finding a cure for HIV/AIDS. Wouldn't that be something? If you agree, then join World Community Grid now and download a simple, free tool that lets you and your computer do your share in helping humanity. After all, you are part of it, so why not take part in it?
