Why?
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Ok, just to satisfy Gob's curiosity, I googled "it"

It (1990 film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It (novel) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Information technology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There were more links but I'm tired of enabling Gob's sluggardly refusal to google 'it'

It's a new Google toy, if you search for "I'm feeling curious" (no quotation marks) you get a "fun fact".

It whiles away the hours at work. ;-)

Laughing when tickled in our sensitive spots (under the arms, near the throat and under our feet) could be a defensive mechanism. Research suggests that we have evolved to send this signal out to show our submission to an aggressor, to dispel a tense situation and prevent us from getting hurt.

that makes sense joe. tickling is a man thing (like this thread)

it shows our dominance and gentle ness. it shows our love and power.

it shows our worth as protectors.

it makes the children laugh and makes the women willing.

I am man hear me roar!!!!!!!!

eta: tickling has just been declared an act of violence by the DNC and the Massachusetts University system.

The sun and the moon can give the earth an erection...

The tides are due to the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun on the Earth. Because the gravitational force decreases as the distance squared, the part of the Earth that is closer to the Moon or the Sun is pulled a little extra and a bulge is created.

Who was the only female pharaoh?


Although it was uncommon for Egypt to be ruled by a woman, the situation was not unprecedented. As a regent, Hatshepsut was preceded by Merneith of the first dynasty, who was buried with the full honors of a pharaoh and may have ruled in her own right.

If puzzled, follow Gob's instruction in the OP:
I'm feeling curious, just google it
In other words, Google this phrase: "I'm feeling curious"
