Hey I got a question. What are these [bot] things? You know like google[bot]. They are always online, what are they doing? Just thought I would ask. Oh and one more question, how do you all put pics on the side and quotes at the bottom the way you do? Thanks in advance! God bless! :ebiggrin:

Before I begin browsing the boards like I used to back in the day, I'd like to say hey to everyone, especially those that may remember me from my previous alias AtheisticYouth. A lot has changed over the years, but lately I've been feeling compelled to rejoin the search for truth. While I'd love to get into my standings, I think they would be better expressed as the situation comes around. Briefly, though, I consider myself an agnostic-atheist with dire hopes that someday I may see things differently.

As far as educational credentials, I'm currently attending Auburn Montgomery, majoring in psychology, leading eventually to a masters in education, psychology, and maybe a doctorate in psychology. Outside of school though, I enjoy studying cosmology, particularly theology and physics, as well as apologetics and philosophy. I'm also an author and musician, but I suppose the latter two are less pertinent for participation on the board.

Anyways, hello everybody. :wave: I look forward to seeing you on the boards.

Hey Gabrielman, you should go to this thread about images: http://discussions.godandscience.org/vi ... =2&t=33283

The bots are the crawlers that are gathering new information for the web search engines.

Hi Borkuf. I hope you find the board helpful, and that we all can have some interesting discussions.

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, right? But when a cigar isn't just a cigar, does one need a psychiatrist to tell someone so? I wanted to say something about psychology, and that's practically the only thing my frazzled brain could think of.

No, a cigar that isn't just a cigar is more than likely a fine cigar, and to assess the quality of a cigar one is better off asking a cigar connoisseur than a shrink, unless they want to be told that the Freudian doctrine equates smoking with an oral fixation, and that they smoke because mommy gave them too much attention.

Now, to test my hypothesis, I require a dozen Cubans straight from Castro's humidor. Failure to comply with my demands will result in yet another rediculous disorder that diagnoses any and all with a life-long, debilitating mental illness that can only be treated by check or money order made out to the attending doctor.

Hi my name is Linda!

I found this site and I have to say that I am impressed. I just posted this same message but believe I posted it in the wrong place. So if you see this same post somewhere else, sorry. I live in Pleasant Prairie, WI.........but wish I still lived in Colorado.....one day maybe. I work in the health field and at times can be very rewarding and very frustrating. I hope to learn alot from the different chats that I see going on.
