The fossil record suggests an enormous amount of biodiversity in the ages like the Eocene (jungles worldwide). Also, one time in the Campanian (starting 77,500,000 years ago for approx. 3,000,000 years), North America’s diversity of large dinosaurs exploded, and this correlates with a temperature rise.

Polygamy is no stranger to human history, but the practice is widely outdated nonetheless. There are however many remaining polygamist sects, some many generations deep. Regardless of religious desire, the practice is obviously highly detrimental to the genetic diversity of polygamist offspring. So my question is simply “Where do they keep finding these people, and is there a way I can learn this powerful mind control?” I would appreciate answers from practicing polygamists or experts of the various affiliated faiths.

The beauty of the adaptability and staggering diversity of life to utilize every niche of the environment and overcome adversity over millions of years? I mean, let’s give hard-working life a little credit here! It was just created and stagnant? How useless. The world is dynamic and the critters work hard to survive.

I’ve noticed that hipsters get a lot of hate directed toward them, but I for one, think it is ridiculous. First, I am going to clarify that I am NOT a hipster, but I still don’t agree with how people generalize them, and I am going to go through some of the main arguments against “hipsterism” and why they are invalid.
1. “Hipsters specifically reject the mainstream, but this is contradictory because they are then defined by the mainstream”
-The whole mindset of a hipster is to not conform so this is obviously going to be a trait of hipster. It is simply a boundary, or a border. That does not mean they are defined by it. There are so many alternatives to just mainstream, thus they aren’t defined by the mainstream at all. They have an infinite amount of room to have individuality, so as not to be defined by the narrow territory they cannot enter.
2. “Hipsters are against conformity, but they conform to a specific stereotype, so they don’t have individuality”
-This is probably the stupidest argument, but it has to be separated into different categories.
a. Clothing
It is true that most hipsters dress alike, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have individuality. To say that all hipsters are interchangeable and conform to a specific way just because of how they dress is not only absurd, but also a really superficial way to look at it. If you just take an average person, who doesn’t get labeled, they all pretty much dress alike as well, with as little diversity as hipsters, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have individuality. Hipsters conforming to a fashion style doesn’t make them conformists. Honestly most of them dress like this because they like the way it looks, and it will get them laid by fellow hipsters. If you are a hipster guy for example, you are probably in to hipster girls, so why wouldn’t you dress like this to help you get with them? I for one, think the way they dress is nice looking (some of them take it too far though) and it makes perfect sense for them to dress like this.
b. Music
People say that all hipsters listen to similar music. This is completely ridiculous. Hipsters all have unique tastes in music. Do they mostly listen to indie music? Yes. But all that means is an independent label. Saying all indie music is the same is equally as ridiculous as saying all corporate record label music is the same. Under the umbrella of independent bands, there is a great deal of diversity. Hipsters believe in niche consumerism, so they don’t like supporting the big guy thus they turn to indie music. This doesn’t mean they can’t have their own taste in music. All hipsters have unique preferences in the variety of sub-genres of indie music, and thus don’t conform to music taste, but only to consumerism. Also, I don’t know any hipsters who limit themselves to modern indie bands. They don’t listen to modern mainstream music, but they still like a lot of oldies and other types of non-pop music.
c. Political and Religious opinions
People always say that hipsters conform to being a liberal atheist. This is a logical fallacy. People who become hipsters don’t conform to these ideas because they are hipsters, they just tend to go hand in hand with the personality type that leads one to becoming a hipster. Obviously someone who is all about niche consumerism in the sense of not supporting big corporations is likely to be a liberal. And obviously someone who refuses conformity is going to be skeptical of religion.
