Joe, why don't you and I formally debate your "proof" right here?  No

names, no insults, no abuse, just a polite debate.  I'll even say

Please.

What do you say?

Go ahead and start with your best argument from the URL you posted and >>
explain to us why it is a proof of Jesus Christ, miracle-working son

of a god.  And I'll show you exactly where and why you're wrong.

Deal?

Budikka

I don't see a response from you Joe.

Don't hold your breath, fruitcake.

  Are you saying your omnipotent

No, because I'm not illiterate as you are. Sign up for English 101
Jackass. Or maybe you should start below 100. lol!

And thanks for proving beyond all contention that you're are a liar, a
coward and a vacuous pile of worthless theist trash who has no
evidence, cries like a baby, and runs like diarrhea.

I'm done with you. You can go now. I'll let you know if I can be
bothered spend any time kicking your dumb ass in the future.

New research suggests your cat is likely using sounds to keep track of
where
you are, even when you’re out of sight. Domestic cats create “mental
maps”
that track where their owner is located based on the direction of
certain
sounds, an ability that was previously unknown in felines, according
to new
research published this week in the journal PLOS One.

Study author Saho Takagi, a doctoral student at Kyoto University, says
she
has
long been interested in cats' hearing and their ability to move their
ears in
different directions.

"I saw a cat with only one of its ears tilted back, listening to the
sound
behind
it, and felt that cats must be thinking about many things from the
sound,"
Takagi says in an email to CNN’s Sherry Liang. "This time, I
investigated
whether
they map their owner's position spatially from sounds."

The team conducted a series of experiments to find out if cats
actively track
their owners using cues like sound. They played recordings of human
voices
calling a cat’s name from different locations, in what they called “teleportation-like scenarios.” For example, a nearby speaker would
announce
“Fluffy!”, suggesting to the kitty that the owner was close, and then
a
speaker
in a different room would call the same name again. The felines
appeared
surprised by the voice coming from an unexpected location, suggesting
that
domesticated cats spatially map their human companions using audio
cues,
even when they’re in the next room, reports Hannah Osborne for
Newsweek.

"These results suggest that cats hold a mental representation of the
unseen
owner and map their owner's location from the owner's voice, showing
evidence of socio-spatial cognition,” the researchers write in the
paper.
Earlier
studies have shown that cats can tell familiar and unfamiliar human
voices
apart, and locate hidden objects. Therefore, "it seems plausible that
cats
should
be able to mentally map others' locations based on vocalizations,”
they
explain.
