Nairobi City

Two Rivers Mall Kiambu Kenya,Africa's largest shopping complex mall

kikuyu1:
I know you like using big words,but nigga how could you put that word in the sentence? Do you know what it means?

Humorously implying that ain't no sissies in our sports, with the difficulties of our circumstances, though we ain't into much of rugby, but definitely, doesn't mean I ain't aware of the female category, was only taking a jab at your males. No more, no less.

Why the profanity?

I doubt this claim,
How about the South African mall of Africa

Muafrika2:
I suspected you would say so ... and this ...

"200 000 year old city found in Southern Africa may rewrite history...."
https://www.thesouthafrican.com/200-000-year-old-city-found-in-southern-africa-set-to-re-write-history/

How is this going to work? The authority figure for that story a Mr. Michael Tellinger believes that everything we have been taught is a lie. He also believes in Annunaki. Do you also? He has also campaigned against banks and central banks. The age of that site is disputed and only Tellinger and his followers believe that date. And that story doesnt show that humans existed alongside dinosaurs. 200,000 years ago is pretty recent. Just an quick question, why does believing require so much energy to counter science to the extent of resorting to pseudo science? Those ruins are likely the same age as the ruins in Zimbabwe and the ones in Western Kenya all from Bantu groups.

For guys who claim there aint naijas in Kenya..please confirm

Selective cherry picking, Bravo, obrigado,

Not Africa.. SA, Morocco and Egypt have some crazy stuff.

The irony of intelligence

People attribute information to intelligence, whether that information is in the form of symbols on clay or signals from space. They do not need to see the information being created to draw that conclusion. Yet, when the most sophisticated code known to man—the chemical code of life—was discovered, many shoved that logic aside, attributing DNA to mindless processes. Is that reasonable? Is it consistent? Is it scientific?

Daejoyoung:
Lol but it's you Kenyans who allow so many of them in. Are they even there legally? And how can one be sure that they are all Nigerians only. l would say Kenya should tighten her borders to prevent these so called Nigerian refugees whom they claim are criminals.

am also shocked ..

OMFG!/ The monorail project died over 2 years ago! You Naijjans have been knowingly lying all this time,goddammit!

NEVER PASTE THOSE PICS HERE-YOU'VE BEEN FOUND OUT! Unless you mean to symbol a monument to financial waste and misprioritisation of resources.

Chop some knuckles bro,
Ain't seen nada,

A documentary by tsave on ait, showed there are over 56,000+ abandoned projects crisscrossing the length and breadth, nooks and crany of the country, both federal, state, local projects worth trillions of naira

The Nigerian phenomenon, one of a kind.

Is Evolution a Scientific Theory?

What qualifies a theory as a scientific theory? According to the Encyclopedia of Scientific Principles, Laws, and Theories, a scientific theory, such as Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, must:

1 .Be observable

2 .Be reproducible by controlled experiments

3 .Make accurate predictions

In that light, where does evolution stand? * Its operation cannot be observed. It cannot be reproduced. And it cannot make accurate predictions. Can evolution even be considered a scientific hypothesis? The same encyclopedia defines a hypothesis as “a more tentative observation of facts [than a theory],” yet lends itself “to deductions that can be experimentally tested.”

For the folks who want to learn real science this a food for a though :

Do you know that the probability that just one protein containing only 100 amino acids could ever randomly form on earth has been calculated to be about one chance in a million billion and remember that some can be made from as few as 50 or as many as several thousand amino acids .

You forgot the creationist too,
You are questioning, where evolution stands, forgetting, your admittance abinitio that it already shot itself on the foot. I Guess it's on the floor.

Ain't no perfect school of thought.

Am teaching science today ....

Consider the RNA molecule. It is constructed of smaller molecules called nucleotides.But this is the funny part.RNA is required to make proteins , yet proteins are involved in the production of RNA. How could either one arise by chance, let alone both?
If ya really really smart ya should rethink about the whole idea of evolution folks

True but science does tell the truth...like for example if the creation of complex molecules in the laboratory requires the skill of a scientist, could the far more complex molecules in a cell really arise by chance?

kenya is just another shiiiithole...go ask trump....

You are very entitled to your opinion regarding Kenya, or any other country. But the reason for your negative opinion shouldnt becos of this....

kenya is a black nation...why should i care about kenya...??

Those numbers might sound so big but they dont mean much. Remember there were billions upon billions of trials taking place SIMULTANEOUSLY in the oceans for millions of years. Its not like a one day event where everything had to be made. Also, dont forget that the chances of something happening being too small doesnt mean it cannot happen in a single trial. An example is the sportpesa jackpot. Millions of people place bets many times but one guy can place a single random off head bet and win. It was even possible for amino acid molecules to align themselves the right way in one try to create a protein

Ok boss lets assume by infinite chance it happened the explain this.. "RNA is required to make proteins , yet proteins are involved in the production of RNA "

Evolution is observable.
It can be reproduced also, was talking to Muafrika about this. Its called reverse engineering. Its possible to grow teeth on chicken for instance.
Evolution has made predictions.

go slow msee am not following...how is Evolution observable ?

That is a chicken or egg question which came first. The answer is RNA came first, it evolved all the essential methods for storing and expressing genetic information before RNA and DNA. And the chicken came before the egg before you ask

lol...ok but the bolded doesnt make sense

Both in the lab and in the field. You can see natural selection in an area such as when certain white colored moths disappeared due to industrial revolution. In the lab as well you can see tiny bacteria evolving such as maybe to become resistant to some drug. Thats micro evolution (evolution on a small scale).

Ok msee thats not science....You got all the genes required to survive...Study done shows that you only need to switch off the one you dont need an activate the required one .No new genes are being created..

TayserMahiri:
Why?

coz you wrote RNA come first before RNA and DNA ..

mtis:

Whats not science? Chicken lost the need for teeth and slowly switched off the genes for teeth. But those genes can be reactivated to grow teeth again. There are animals without teeth genes.

So msee you agree with me that its all about switching on an off genes...Then thats not evolution

mtis:

I meant DNA. Your protein was still at the back of my mind. The most likely sequence was protein > RNA > DNA

TayserMahiri:

but but we also require DNA to create RNA...So we need both the chicken an the egg

msee gdnyte am tired..kazi na kujenga taifa..

mtis:

No ! Here is the point.
If evolution is a process that takes millions of years then we cannot observe it at work (unless on a micro evolution scale like in bacteria)
So how do we observe it? We know that it is a series of incremental changes that happen over time.
An example of these changes is animals losing or gaining some kinds of features (like chicken losing teeth).
We can reverse this process because its all about genes. Ofcos its about genes what else? These are the things that code for the features. I dont see whats so hard to understand unless you are in denial.

Are you tired or lazy
Because thats a very lazy point. gnyt too
