"Technological singularity refers to the hypothetical future emergence of greater-than human intelligence through technological means." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technologic …

SWAC is a group that hosts informal social events designed to promote fellowship and social networking among skeptics, critical thinkers, and other like-minded individuals.

And have fun while promoting skepticism, science, and rationality. The group is "Without A Cause" to emphasize that informal, social nature of the group. Unlike many groups in Santa …

There are many, many more big and important questions answered in the Bible that are not a part of mainstream discussions. Engage your mind. Engage your work. …
