Not 'intelligent' enough to be an atheist?

“Can you please explain to me how ‘Darwinian evolution’ is different than ‘evolution and speciation via the laws of natural selection.”We all believe in speciation and adaptation. Darwin often spoke if it, and we can see it all around us. Animals, insects, ... [Published WorldNetDaily - 12 hours ago]

How Human Evolution Prepared Us To Survive Future Disasters

We may be in the early stages of a disaster so profound that it could kick off a mass extinction. Does that mean humanity is doomed? No. Scientific evidence suggests that humans will survive.

Quotes

"Trent faculty continue to demonstrate leadership in their fields,” said Dr. Neil Emery, Trent University vice-president, Research & International. “NSERC funds excellence in research, where the criteria for funding is distinct innovation, a commitment to training new scientists and demonstrated high-level competencies of the researcher. We are extremely pleased with the results of this most recent competition."
...Whether the temperature rises or falls, species will survive only if their ranges can change: "The political rub is we must look after these [natural] places if we want plants and animals to survive in the future" he said
"While some natural clays, which have absorptive properties similar to sponges, have been used topically for centuries, scientific studies investigating the antibacterial mechanisms represent a relatively new area of research" Haydel said
"We have demonstrated that mineralogically-identical clays exhibit chemical variability which correlates with variability in antibacterial activity. Since clays can contain toxic metals, such as arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury, safety precautions must be in place to minimize exposure to toxic ions. Efforts must be taken to standardize the composition and antibacterial efficacy of clays if they are to be used therapeutically and prophylactically."
