The only surprise (to me) was just how much I like that damn Rabbit. But hey, maybe it won't be much longer before I'm joined by other Rabbit Lovers!
Oh, and BTW, if you'd like to see that Guest category break into the Top 25, go for it. It shouldn't be too much longer before another bunny hops through here.

I enjoy this blog mainly to learn from others. The times when I have posted I had something to share. I am not a scientist, and so I prefer to read and learn from those who have a scientific perspective. I think the reason I enjoy it so much is that people are talking about the religious implications of the science. There are differences of opinion, and for the most part they have been healthy differences, and respectful replies from both sides. Once in a while a troll arrives to stir things up a bit, and that's ok, but I much more enjoy it when there is healthy discussion that doesn't try to characterize an individual in the negative. As far as contributing a guest essay, I will have to refrain for now, as I don't think I would have much to say. Thanks for the opportunity anyway.
I think there are religious implications to the idea of frontloading. But I'm not certain that I accept frontloading altogether. There seems to be an agreement between some aspects of frontloading and the scriptures. Our humanity was planned from the start, and everything that we are comes from a sort of "blueprint." There are scriptures that suggest this, I'm looking them up.
