• There’s Something Hidden in This CT Scan That Not Even Most Radiologists Can Spot — Can You?

  February 13, 2013 at 9:06am

  I saw it straight away… ??? I have a really hard time believing that a radiologist can miss that.. very disturbing if true though.
  I did miss the gorilla in the video though, lol.

  In reply to ellietoo.

  If there is a TV in the cabin and he’s watching live coverage he’d be able to see every move they make.

  …way to do so…

• Government Flies ‘Stressed’ Sea Turtles to Florida to Escape the Cold

  December 9, 2012 at 10:36am

  I actually used to work at the NE Aquarium – cold shock in turtles is indeed a serious, life threatening condition that requires care even beyond the point when they are relocated. (and no I’m not a troll;)

  I do like to try and take a balanced approach on things like these – I personally am glad that we have the endangered species act to protect some of these amazing animals that God made – each situation must be looked at carefully though. I find nothing wrong with this particular story – the article even said that much of the funding comes from private donors. And the 4 million facility does not mean it’s 4 million that our gov’t is spending – it’s a facility that already exists – probably another aquarium or small research facility of some sort that will then take on the expense of the treatment/care itself.

  We don’t need to turn our back on the wonders of nature, or on our responsibility to do what we can to protect it, just because we are conservative.

  Sure we could allow nature to take it’s course, but whether we like to admit it or not, the fact these turtles are endangered is likely a byproduct of our lifestyle – fishing methods and plastics thrown into the ocean being mistaken as their food source (and then killing them). Just because I feel that certain groups, including our gov’t, often go overboard when it comes to protecting the environment, doesn’t mean I believe our gov’t has zero responsibility to care for it when there is a reasonable

• Florida Politician Attempts to Block Islamic Animal Slaughter Ceremony

  Interesting point about PETA – I wonder if they have voiced any concerns over this as well…

• Washington Monument to Remain Closed Indefinitely?

  In reply to freedomofspeech.

  @Jesusfreak95 – the video camera would likely begin shaking before people really started realizing what was going on – that’s probably why it seemed so long – also people don’t start reacting until the more violent shaking – they were still just standing around taking pictures (I viewed the other 3 videos as well) for the first few seconds.

  And I think the guy running back up may have been a teacher or chaperone for that group of kids that was there. So he ran back up to make sure his group had all started to evacuate.

• Catholic Bishops Call Obamacare Regulation an ‘Unprecedented Attack on Religious Liberty’

  In reply to reform.

  I don’t think I’d qualify under your request for those with “scholarly knowledge”, but I don’t think it’s necessary in order to answer at least your question about the crusaders… it’s because they were blinded by sin. Ugliness and sin – something that affects every human being on the planet, regardless of religion or lack thereof. No amount of scholarly thought could justify the crusades.

  And guess what?! Looks like God answered your question from when you were a kid! lol. They speak English now so we can understand:) The Catholic Church is not perfect and doesn’t pretend to be – every one of it’s members, including the Pope, is subject to sin. The Church is like a mother – there to guide us and do her best to teach us, but we do know that she also is not perfect.

• Couple Wins $4.5 Million in ‘Wrongful Birth’ Lawsuit After Claiming They Would Have Aborted Disabled Son

  September 20, 2011 at 8:09pm

  Somebody already brought up Nick Vujicic – but he’s worth bringing up again in response to this story!

  Who are we to decide who’s life is worth living and who’s is not…. and I’ll add that it’s very disturbing to me that these parents are saying now, that after their son has been born and been a part of their lives for 3 years, that they wish they would have known about his disability so they could have aborted him. I can only hope that they *just* wanted the money and worded the lawsuit in such a way that gave them the best chance of winning (still not ethically admirable, but better than regretting the fact that they missed out on the chance to kill their son!!) – I can only hope that they truly do love their son and are thankful that he is a part of their life.

• ‘You Fu**ers!’ Wild CO 8-Year-Old Pepper Sprayed at School After Outburst

  April 6, 2011 at 4:19pm

  I’ve been thinking about this story – putting myself in this position and imagining if it were my child – even at 6, I would not be criticizing the police for using the pepper spray. In fact, I’d be happy that A. they used the spray instead of a taser or something more extreme, and B. that they were able to stop him before he hurt himself or committed a serious crime by seriously injuring someone. I’d be thankful that the officers used appropriate force against my child and did not put themselves in the position to become his ‘victims’ by trying to wrestle the stick out of his hands.
