Tchaikovsky's violin concerto is, in my opinion, one of the most spectacular pieces ever made. It was panned - even hated - in its own time and Tchaikovsky wrote little for the violin after his concerto was so negatively received. I think that's tragic because I really adore the piece.
The hands-down best performance of it I have ever heard was made by a fellow called David Oistrach, a Soviet violinist. He performed it in Dresden in 1954. It must have been surreal listening to such a stupendous performance of this kind of music in a war-torn city in the heart of the GDR, played an artist from the imperial capital on purloined instruments.
If you like orchestral music, or the violin, or Tchaikovsky, give it a listen.

You'll get no argument from me. I think I have all his works. I'm working on my Rachmaninov (or Rachmaninoff, depending on which Anglicization you prefer) collection. I generally like Russian composers.
But even for me, as a big-time Tchaikovsky enthusiast, his violin concerto never ceases to blow me away.

It's what judges do.
The SCOTUS could put an end to this toot sweet if it wanted to. Make injunction bonds mandatory. If you sue for an injunction, you have fund an escrow to pay for damages if you lose. They're supposed to be the norm, but seemingly never are. State courts should do it, too, but that's up to them.

• Gradulism
• Symbiogenesis
• Epigenetics
• Evo-Devo
• Neutral Theory of Molecular Evolution
• Classic Darwinism
• Neo-Darwinism
• Punctuated Equillibrium
• Catastrophism
• TBD
They are absolutely certain its one or maybe not yet discovered, and most certainly not the most obvious Young Earth or the watered down Intelligent Design

The Catholic and Orthodox readings of the Bible is that it uses symbolic language to explain the natural of the world and salvation history. It is not a biology textbook, or a scientific treatise. That is why it uses numbers with specific values, because they are symbols of completeness, rather than actual amounts.

It's been used as a useful pejorative to make people reluctant to discuss certain topics, though.
Which was the entire point of the CIA and MSM introducing the term into common usage after the JFK assassination.

I don't think so.
Launches - especially manned launches - are expensive, dangerous and difficult to coordinate. Their ride up couldn't bring them down, so they got to join the ISS crew until the next scheduled turnover. A special mission to go get them would have introduced significant optional risks given that they were safely aboard the ISS.
It sucks that their trip suddenly jumped from a few days to several months, but I don't think the decision to leave them there was political so much as it was practical. They were safe, the return craft was an unknown and the next mission was already penciled in.
The political move would have been for Biden to tell Musk to get on the stick and go get them back home ASAP, damn the expense, and then played it for tremendous political gain. That's the play Trump probably would have made.

Dude, there are TWO creation stories in Genesis.
The "seven days" one, and the one where Adam named the creatures.
In the Seven Days story, Man is created by God last, after everything else.
In the second, Man is created First, then the animals.
The point?
1. Man (and everything else), was created by GOD. In an age of polytheism, this was a controversial thing. None of this animal or planet worship bullshit.
2. Man was God's greatest creation (in His image). Either it was the first (and best) thing, or it was the culmination of His work, take your pick. The idea is the same.

But they could have. Humans did not reach into the genome of each species of dog and craft each variant with care. Humans merely applied selection pressures (which obviously exist in nature.) We sped the process up because we had the ability to force more frequent and focused recombination, but the same thing happens in nature all of time.
Every post you’ve made on this topic shows a stunning ignorance of what the various hypotheses actually say. You seem stuck on the idea that just because your worldview requires magic, that everyone else’s does as well. You assume that evolution must produce fully-formed organisms in 6 days because that’s what your mystical, incoherent and contradictory tome stipulates.

Point of order: God set up the immutable laws of nature, science can't explain the origins of Pi, speed of light or many other phenomena.
Big Bang asserts that "it just happened and just was perfect instantly without any influence".
Yet for some reason, we still entertain the gross speculation.

Dude, there are TWO creation stories in Genesis.

In the Seven Days story, Man is created by God last, after everything else.
In the second, Man is created First, then the animals.

Well no, he NAMED the animals and they were already there. That's my interpretation.

1. Man (and everything else), was created by GOD. In an age of polytheism, this was a controversial thing. None of this animal or planet worship bullshit.
2. Man was God's greatest creation (in His image). Either it was the first (and best) thing, or it was the culmination of His work, take your pick. The idea is the same.

If man is just the result of random change and biological growth, there is nothing special about humans. They are co-equal with other animals, and so we can argue about whether humans have any right to exist at all, given all the harm they do to our sacred Earth Mother.

Genetic Entropy is real. It is observable and can be measured. Destruction mutations are legion, its profoundly rare to ever have a beneficial mutation.
The phrase "dying you shall die" could be translated into mutation following mutation that leads to the end of that genetic line. It may take thousands of generations, but there is an upper limit to genetic entropy before an organism no longer can reproduce.

Perhaps there is a difference in the genetic drift between one generation a one million?
Mutations obviously exist. How do you account for the resulting genetic drift? How can species remain static for millions upon millions of years while accumulating mutation upon mutation?
Or are you one of these poor, lost souls who think the Earth is 5000 years old because a silly book written by a primitive society of desert-dwellers said so? Lol.

Zoologists are starting to dislike the term "species" and like to work around it since there is not nearly as much contrast between species, and far too much contrast within species to make a solid definition possible. They are starting to like "clades" better, but they still are unhappy, and the concept of "crown" species is making them run around in circles and write odd papers at each other.
personally I think it has to do more with how "species" breed, and how the select mates, but I am a lowly BA in a liberal arts so no one pays attention to me.
with CRISPR tech we are going to wind up completely divorced with species, and we may wind up looking a something like "Cell Line" or "germ line" to keep the books straight.

Why did all the miracles stop?
The Bible is full of miracle stories. Genesis, the flood, pillars of salt, pillars of fire, parting of seas, immaculate conception, the dead rising from the grave, water walking
the Bible kind of ends on a cliffhanger: Jesus ascends to Heaven, with plans to come back at some future date.

There are plenty of species on Earth, right now, that have “partial eyes.”
As for your question: the ability to detect light—at all—is a benefit over not being able to detect it. Plants can detect light, for example.
Increasing resolution of light detection is also obviously useful. In the land of blind species, even a “partial eye” makes you a king. Come on, try harder.

ha. "evolution deniers" is cute.
Regardless, same as you, probably.
The ones where folks are routinely finding fish eating other fish or animals giving birth are neat.
Oh, and the ones where the dinosaurs are fighting and then decided to hang out until they could be fossilized are cool, too.
It's interesting that "a drowning scenario" is one of the suggested remedies of the puzzle.

And as to “7 days”; it’s my understanding that the word translated as “day” can just as easily mean “period” or “era”. What I find significant is that the order or creation is essentially correct. Quite an accomplishment for desert dwellers.

personally I think it has to do more with how "species" breed, and how the select mates, but I am a lowly BA in a liberal arts so no one pays attention to me.
with CRISPR tech we are going to wind up completely divorced with species, and we may wind up looking a something like "Cell Line" or "germ line" to keep the books straight.

One thing I find fascinating is how the various religions seem to be describing the same stuff albeit from different perspectives. I've been digging into this more and ore, and it's uncanny. There really isn't any conflict between Greek or Babylonian myths and the Bible, it's just who is telling the story.
God is unique, however, insofar as He is limitless, while the other pantheons are not. They have sharply curtailed abilities, spheres of activity, but God is without limit.
I'm fully buying into St. Augustine's observation that pagan gods are the fallen angels, and certainly their behavior lives up to that. There aren't really any "good" pagan gods, truly merciful ones, and they turn on each other all the time. As I said, it's fascinating.

I see that as well, and I mention Job because I find it incredibly wise and insightful. Most especially, it shows me that men and women have been discussing , intelligently and seriously, the topic of “why do bad things happen to good people?” for at least 4,000 years (probably a lot longer than that). Coming to grips with that is an essential part of being a mature human being.

Why did all the miracles stop?
The Bible is full of miracle stories. Genesis, the flood, pillars of salt, pillars of fire, parting of seas, immaculate conception, the dead rising from the grave, water walking
the Bible kind of ends on a cliffhanger: Jesus ascends to Heaven, with plans to come back at some future date.
Then, nothing else miraculous happens. No more smiting or brimstone or rivers running red with blood. Why did everything stop two thousand and some odd years ago?
Posted by: Don Black
============
Tangential, but I'm curious about a more recent dearth of miracles. It strikes me that it's getting more and more difficult to canonize saints because the church can't identify a miracle the candidate was responsible for. In the olden days, there were stigmata, visions, speaking in tongues, fasting for years, bodies that didn't corrupt, levitation, torture devices flying to pieces, etc. I wonder why those things aren't so common anymore.

Gould called it "the hopeful monster" but I don't think he was serious. I am not a evolutionary biologist, but the current orthodoxy is that the "crown group or species" is the first appearance of the ancestor of all the current species of a phylum, or class or order (depending) but the current observation is that the crown species have descendant species that will have atavistic (throwback) characteristics. It seems that mutations that are useful may need to survive many evolutionary changes to be permanent, or at least the alternate genetics have to be winnowed out through multiple evolutions.
Also, mutations that are useful in some situations may be useless in other environments, and things which are energy intense but not useful tend to be lost.

First gas stove had a line to the burner and to the pilot for each
burner. Turn the gas on and the pilot lights the gas.
Gas became more expensive so dad cut the pilots off.
Presto, comes the kitchen matches. Best idea is to light the
match before turning on the gas.
Ask a welder.
