Phillip Morris and Biotechnology

Phillip Morris is moving into downtown Richmond, that’s right, right into the heart of the VA Biotechnology Park. Notice how the trees that once lined 5th Street are gone, could it be that the trees were interfering with the construction inside the heavily fortified parking lot?

Thou Shall Not Covet…

Should the Ten Commandments be on display at courthouses? Frankly, I do not care- but aren’t people who believe (it should be displayed) actually are yearning for public institutions to patronize their belief. In the scuttle to establish their ‘point of view’, the advocates who like flaunting the sacred aseret hadiberot have ignored the very ideology of these Commandments. Which part of the ‘thou shall not covet‘ is hard to understand? In response to this in San Francisco Gate article, after much consideration.

Intelligent Design, indeed

Intelligent Design is the next best thing to Supersized McFries. How else can one describe the perfection of creation? If creation were not a planned execution of “The Architect” then the world, as we know would be chaotic and non-conforming, there would not be any evidence of patterns arranged by 'intelligent cause' for a purpose. So if you believe the world is not chaotic and if you have those patters as evidence, feel free to share, I would like to know why the intelligent "Architect" placed evidence of abiogenesis in the first place.

Redskins

In one of the many stop lights on my way to work, I happen to stop right behind a car with two very familiar bumper stickers, the first said “I support organ and tissue donation” on the other side of the vehicle was “Redskins” bumper sticker. At first, it seemed inconsequential, but as I drove off I somehow connected the tissue part of the first sticker with the skins part of the second, stay with me now- skins, red? Are they talking about color of skin here? Is their skin really red? Even if they were, is it OK to call a bunch of steroid laden thugs in tights chasing a pigskin ball- Redskins? Would it be OK to start a professional athletic team and call it the “The Pale Faces” or “The Negro’s”? Our pretense of political correctness usually overlooks simple everyday disparities- and that is a fact. As for the organ and tissue donation part, I hope their convictions are a little more than "skin deep".
