^^Bump I'd hate to start another thread, but I wanna hear evreyone's thoughts on geology in general There's no "geology" guide as such on here, in fact I can only find about 5 threads which mention the word.

Perhaps I should just take up 1st yr geo with some economics and the rest of my finance stuff, see if I like it. Even if I then don't decide to fully take up science, the knowledge could be useful in say commodities trading roles or working in finance for a mining type company. I'm still not...

Not really sure on the "difficulty" level, but these are a few I have found introductory and interesting: Fiction- (I like to begin here; note many are read in high school) A Clockwork Orange: Anthony Burgess Animal Farm + 1984: Orwell (I think a must) Brave New World: Huxley The...

Or should I just follow this as a guide Curtin Courses Online Handbook 2010 - Bachelor of Science (Applied Geology), Bachelor of Commerce (Finance) Just your basic science (geology) major combined with commerce- no extra maths, physics or biology (doing these add a year to my degree). I'm...

I have one year left of my commerce degree (only four finance subjects), was looking at taking up a Bsc (geology)- should take about 3-4 years... Should I firstly take 100 LVL Math and Physics next year (eqv to first year engineering/physics students)? Been a while since i did math/physics...

Screw finance, become a geologist. I'm looking at it.

Did Jesus have an iPhone?

The foundation of sexism :p You've heard it from the man himself.

Incorrect. See for example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Objectivism_(Ayn_Rand) Atheistic moral objectivism :)

==================================================================== A letter to you on a cassette 'Cause we don't write anymore Gotta make it up quickly There's people asleep on the second floor There's no aphrodisiac like loneliness Truth beauty and a picture of you You'll be...

I agree here, but would stress post-grad law as a very viable option (if you can handle another 3 yrs). This will open your avenues further then what is in my opinion a very narrow field on its own (finance). At the very least, you should be able to get a job after LL.B and this will hold you...

Also, IMO atheists never lose debates. The only rational position in the world is probabilistic atheism. Look up the late psychologist Albert Ellis for an interesting perspective. No other position is respectful and nor should any respect be given to anyone with that belief, other then to...

When you consider it, being religious is so...embarrassing.

Obviously your aspiring to be a comedian... perhaps take your own advice?? :P

Interesting I think the main conflict between the theist and the atheist is that they both accuse each other of "not seeing the big picture." The theist thinks the atheist must be stupid to believe "this is all there is". That there is something bigger, an eternal world of glory, we are part...

I actually appreciate you respondingly sensibly, but you must see where I am coming from... Its occam's razor, you just don't need to complicate the origins of man with god, we can explain evolution through natural selection... I just think that they aren't compatible at a deep...

I feel like rambling, I have two more things to say... On the usefulness of the humanities When the vocational student (INSERT- Engineer, Accounting, Medice or Law) approaches the arts student and says "put down Marx's critque of Hegel, that's never going to get you a job in life!" The...

I definitely see your point, in many ways we are on the same page, like me your probably well-rounded and looking to maximise your personal value in the least costly way possible>>>mathematics skills (and albeit computing ARE very valuable). BUT, there is more humour in that quote then...

Curious reply. Do note "the dumbness" is what you have to actually face when you bring Christianity, geology, anthropology, evolution and common sense (if thats possible) together. You can get all technical with another MAN deciding that "oh no the soul enters here..." but lets face it is...

A few things...I won't address all, too much repetition... Firstly we assumed the axiom of God's existence. But your argument then runs like this: 1/ God exists (assumed). 2/ He created this universe (flow from 1 given the definition of God as an ultimate creator). 3/ Everything...
