I think it depends on the trustworthiness of your government. Even then, it’s a scale that slides depending on the situation. I’m in my 70s and feel my government is going through a very solid stage right now. My trust level is at one of the highest level.

No one could get a good picture of him. They were all overexposed.

Hey, thanks. That’s a great feature.

I wonder what the difference would be if we eliminated down votes?

Any water that drains from sinks, showers, or tubs is grey water. Offices, schools, and government buildings here(Canada) do it to save water.

Cool Tesla trees.

Some places collect grey water and use it for flushing toilets. Adding urine to the grey water makes it smelly.

That’s wheely funny.

Exactly. You can believe either as the first step.The first step requires faith because the evidence isn’t available.

It’s not a question of benefit or necessity. It’s a question of what actually happened.

Who said anything about organized religion?

Faith is not restricted to believing in things unseen. Faith can be believing in something even when the empirical evidence and logic aren’t strong enough to make it likely. This applies both to the existence of a higher being and the presumption that all the matter, energy, and order of the universe appeared from nothing.

It takes just as much faith to believe that the universe came into existence out of nothing as it does to believe a higher being created it.

Commas are important

I don’t think you can judge cops worldwide by the cops in your country.

Only ewe would know.

!! What country do you live in?

With me, I can’t help it. And I always sneeze three times. If I could stop it, I would.

I still know one of them. Have been an acquaintance of another cop for 15 years. Still great people.

There are billions of areas in the universe that are millions of years older than us. Considering the amount we’ve advanced in the last 125 years, it seems likely some of them would be space travelors by now.
