Last week, a series of absurd videos from Christians Against Dinosaurs went viral. Filled with science-denying claims and pigheaded arguments, the
videos made absurd claims such as; if a leather jacket can't glide on its own, then pterodactyls would be unable to fly. While many are presuming (and
hoping) these videos are some kind of over-the-top satire, the Christians Against Dinosaurs website presents itself as a real Christian ministry.
However, they're not the first to go to extreme efforts to argue the point that dinosaurs never existed. There's a significant number of...
I’ve spent most of my time the past two decades as a futurist, a technologist and consultant paid to forecast future technology trends and products.
In other words, look at a hell of a lot of information coming from all over the place, analyze what data made sense, and then try to figure out what
conclusions I could draw. One project, rumor has it, even involved that little “company” headquartered in Virginia.
Long before the X-Files, I wanted to believe in the possibilities of extraterrestrials. The problem for me was the lack of a smoking gun. Every time I

I realize that over the last few years, there has been an abundance of threads about net neutrality but based on comments I've been reading regarding

acceptance of political...

Just found this video where UFO is supposedly captured on live news channel in Argentina on March 1st 2015. I tried to find some reports of this

expert....
I'll be honest, I watched the entire speech, and found it to be extremely powerful. I know many here will attack this speech...and that is their

So google plans to add an algorithm that ranks websites according to the veracity of information provided. In theory it sounds good, in practice

Fellow ATS Members,
I would like to present an idea I had recently and receive your input as to what you think. Perhaps we could build on my idea and eventually create a
proper thread with actual evidence to back the initial idea up.
I first want to start with a story, a personal situation I recently...
In this case we have a little girl in Ontario that came down with symptoms of Measles. Shock, horror. In 1960 there were an estimated 3.5 million

To me this just proves animals (including us) evolved and was not designed.
If designed the designer would have been fired.

I would like to discuss a topic which I find to be interesting and worthy of consideration. And that is religious scripture, particularly as one comes
to embrace open-minded spirituality rather than traditional adherence to religious dogma. Because, I have not been traditionally religious, one who

The ATS website is looking slick these days. I'm glad to know I can make a donation via paypal.
I don't go on ATS much anymore, so I don't know if anyone is familiar with the term "redpilled" or if it's used here often. Basically, it's used on
the chans and the manosphere all the time to refer to people that have seen the cracks in society and have embraced...

So now they say the crime rates are dropping.
Looks like they decided to use laws that were "dormant" and not enforced until recently.

This is just something I've been thinking about and testing a bit. It's about stars on ATS. I don't necessarily care about them as some do because,
if I were in this for the stars, I could just go outside and look up on a clear night. But it's slowly illustrating something to me.

Yes, we all have to tolerate each other and each others quirks, but there is no getting away from the fact that lots of things that other people do
