    Like in today’s Peanuts strip, some questions aren’t even worth answering.

    Evolutionists just think that evolution happened. They don’t look at the big picture which is that their whole belief is all upon a hypothesis

    @ theological disputeSuch moments remind me that Mr. Watterson drew his comics in the pre-internet era. Any overzealous reader would have to discuss with paper Calvin (or Hobbes) or attempt to find a living person with different view and eager for a debate. Which might end up with a coffee and donuts, which might lead to friendship or even marriage.And what do we get from anonymous slogan-fighting? Coffee and donuts for everyone!

    @ Nabuquduriuzhur@ The Pikachu

    How I pity you and (in the former case) your alleged education. The Pikachu obviously doesn’t even know the meaning of the word “hypothesis”, as opposed to “theory”. Nabuquduriuzhur should ask his alma mater for his money back.

    Well, without integers, I suppose when you die it would be very difficult to count the people in Heaven.But then, perhaps this only applies to those who are counting on Heaven.

    because integers are on a standardized test that the results in funding for the school plus standardized test gets you a better chance for scholarship at good college.

    Integers allow you to have, and turn to, page 83….I know. Overrated.

    What’s an integer? I remember the word but not the what. I guess I’ll have to look it up.

    Woody Allen did something similar to this strip in one of his movies.In one of the early scenes in his 1977 movie, Annie Hall. Little Woody Allen (called Alvy in the movie) is sitting in the doctor’s office with his mother. “What seems to be the problem?”, asks the doctor. “Well,” his mother says with evident frustration, “he’s depressed. It’s something he read.” “The universe is expanding,” Alvy explains morosely. “The universe is everything, and if it’s expanding, someday it will break apart and that will be the end of everything.” “He’s even stopped doing his homework,” his mother continues, with a look of total disgust. “What’s the point?” Alvy counters. “What has the universe got to do with it?” his mother explodes. “You’re here in Brooklyn. Brooklyn is not expanding!”

    At least Miss Wormwood isn’t a nun, they taught with a stick in one hand. They don’t make much sense about math, they taught us how to kneel down, pray, and accept our fate. Every hurt was a prayer, just offer it up to God. I am a Christian, but that kind of talk went out with serfdom.

    Idk why Miss. Wormwood keeps answering Calvin’s questions and listening to him. Wouldn’t you know what to expect to come out of his mouth?

    Apparently, the only integer Calvin has learned is zero.

    Calvin, you’ve got to learn integers before you can get to irrational numbers.

    Why go to all the trouble to learn anything if it’s all going to disappear when you die?How about a higher standard of living between now and then?

    @Tacopielvr: It’s interesting to watch the characters in Pearls Before Swine evolve. Pig became more compassionate over time. Rat became less so. It’s as though the strip has only so much compassion to go around.

    “I am in the minority of 14%, strictly science.”.In a way, I too am in the 14%. I do believe in science, with all of its possibilities and limitations, for the physical world.Where my belief in God, or at least the possibility of a collective consciousness, comes into play is in that part of my mind that extends into the metaphysical. It is not directly connected to science as it exists in a completely alternate realm.Science can be proven; all things metaphysical can only be considered.Those who know don’t tell, andThose who tell don’t know.

    That’s a real Zen answer. He doesn’t know it, but Calvin just said something kinda deep.

    I believe in microevolution, but not macroevolution. There are varieties of dogs, for instance, but none of them changes into another kind.
