In recent years, other scientists have postulated that gay sons tend to stick around their brothers and sisters and help them raise children. This is known as the "kin selection hypothesis". By sticking around and showing bias towards their nephews and nieces, the homosexual member's family as a whole gains an evolutionary advantage.-- Yawning Bread, "It's my gay uncle who …

hansel25 has two very interesting posts on the topic.Read:Myth #1: Logic and science cannot prove or disprove the existence of God(s), therefore there may be the possible existence of God(s).Myth #2: Religion is based on faith, a mutually exclusive realm from logic, therefore we shouldn't question whether there is/are god(s) or not.Very nice writing, but a few silly comments …
Even if no one else reads them, I'm happy reading them and being reminded of the sayings everytime I login."I think the hardest part about finding love is the ninety-nine other people who won't love you back or whom you don't love back.

One of the reasons why I am quite enamoured with that phrase is because it always evokes visions of science-fiction universes in my mind.In truth, Singapore is one of the most dystopian places in the world, in light of the government policies enacted and its leaders' choice of action.And nothing displays it more than this comic strip over here:Click on the picture for a …
I am feeling thoroughly horrified at the injustice of this:The police held people for overstaying without a shred of evidence that they were overstayers.The ICA held people in an armlock, getting them to fund their own flight home, with or without being paid their wages.They all just want to get rid of the problem, with no regard for justice, law or rights. The source of the …
Remember my post some time ago?Well, check this out!How many of us have seen the full set of founding fathers depicted in their entirety before?Personally, this is the first time I am actually seeing all these people on one page.Recognising some of the names also comes as a shock to me: they're familiar, but it's embarrassing that I have never seen the names of most of these …

Singapore's twin investment funds - Temasek Holdings and Government Investment Corporation - manage about $400bn between them...-- Mark Kleinman, "Singapore PM: Transparency isn't everything.'"Wah.That's a lot of money, isn't it?How about just using $100 million of that to help the less fortunate in Singapore, Temasek Holdings and GIC?You can still invest the other $399.9bn, …
This difference in mindset towards the issue may be the result of higher education, and could indicate a shift towards more tolerance in the future, experts say.While he acknowledged that even some well-educated people remain conservative, Dr Terence Chong, a sociologist with the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies (Iseas), said the poll indicated this: "Broadly speaking, …
