Firstly, I address the fact that they managed to teach a gorilla how to use sign language. Does this undermine in any the teaching on free will? that a gorilla can communicate on the same level as humans?I don't see how this would undermine free will. It just means they can communicate in a way similar to humans, and I think that's great. It's kind of like the similarities humans have to dolphins...we're closer to them than I ever thought.
As far as the John Edwards of the world go, I personally think it's a scam. I saw a guy from some skeptics' organisation debunk it. Mind you, they probably "debunked" Christianity too, but you just have to watch enough of John Edwards to know that something's rotten on Sci-Fi.
In the off chance that it's not a scam, I think it would be due to malevolent influence. That's just my personal opinion though. I myself have experienced things that normally don't happen to most people, and it's kinda scary at times, and I don't think it's malevolent influence, but perhaps something better; but something about necromancy seems different to me.
Conspiracy theorists?
There are only 24 hours in the day, and I have precious little time to worry about these guys...I've got school work, friends, family, a girlfriend
, and most important, God and my salvation to attend to. But if I ever end up drifting towards the Bermuda Triangle, maybe I'll change my tune. :p
Time travel is the interesting thing to me, however. It's my amateur theory (and I am probably wrong) that if one could develop a machine that could travel at speeds faster than that at which the earth is currently rotating upon its axis, you could probably travel back and forth in time. Perhaps I heard it somewhere, I don't know. But it's a theory. An interesting one, but probably not practical for at least a few centuries. :p
A happy and holy Great and Holy Week and Easter to you, Justin. Pray for me.
