Changing gender is to become easier under Government plans to knock away “demeaning” rules that force people to undergo medical checks.

Well it seems my first thread on the Fermi Paradox generated some interest. Not sure if it's because people here on ATS want to talk about it, or just need a break from all the politics. In any case, it's good to see. This thread will concentrate on one of the "solutions" to the Fermi Paradox. In this case the Rare Earth Hypothesis....

Why I Hate Trump. I feel like for the sake of clarity this is a thread that has to be written, it has to be written because many on the right recently have been very quick to write about “Why the Left Hate Trump” were all kinds of wrong assumptions have been made. Now I cannot speak for everyone one the left, I can also say with reasonable confidence that its not just those of us on the left...

Apparently several groups are upset over the new movie dunkirk. For those that don't know, it's a movie based off of real events during ww2. 400k troops were surrounded and escaped. Well anyhow the French are pissed because they were pretty much left out of the movie. The link says the French don't even teach the event in school. If that's not bad enough, people...

Algebra is the most failed course at community colleges across the country. Is it time to nix the requirement? n.pr/2vCphok br /> NPR tweeted a question.

Stop Making this About Clinton. This is something that I feel has to be said.

A second person said Trump’s lawyers have been discussing the president’s pardoning powers among themselves. Trump’s legal team declined to comment on the issue. But...

Being rather tired of all the political discussions that seem to dominate ATS these days (and for the past year or so), I thought it would be interesting to introduce some discussion on whether or not intelligent alien life exists out there or not. This is not really a discussion on whether or not you believe in intelligent alien...

I agree. Everyone already has public education. Basic health coverage for everyone should be no brainer, especially for the #1 super power. Basic coverage IMO should include free checkup and free emergency care, but no more than that. The two parties will continue...

The new film called Truth To Power. Money and power. That's all he really cares about. CO2 is his tool for making himself rich. CO2 at the start of the industrial age was 280 ppm, compared to 180 ppm at the peak of the last ice age when Earth was much cooler. CO2...

According the paper on worldtruth.tv a medic on the scene said Chester had head trauma as well as 9 broken ribs from him trying to resituate Chester. Worldtruth.tv. Not sure how legit it is, but 9 broken ribs?? Seems like he was murdered. What are your thoughts?

WASHINGTON — Sean Spicer, the White House press secretary, resigned on Friday morning, telling President Trump he vehemently disagreed with the appointment of New York financier Anthony Scaramucci as communications director. Well this has been a long time coming, and I don't blame Spicer one bit for taking this opportunity to bow out! Good for him! I guess there are sufficient...
