That's the reason I'm atheist but not anti-religion; it's good for society and individual people, even if I don't believe in God myself.

Is there any reason they needed to show a large convoluted 3D graph for a linear relationship? I think it would have been enough just to write down the empirical coefficients.DRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07395057401348319239noreply@blogger.com
