On the Nature of Things | Forum

This is the nature of a Denethor, the madness, the irrationality, the refusal to live in reality. The inability to comprehend the things around them. The childishness almost. You haven't actually read The Lord of the Rings, have you? Dude, why are you bringing all the faggoty " actual knowledg...

...And I'd like to believe in elves...

The fun part with Rapture people is finding out who will play the "God's wrath" role next. Huns, no wait Goths, no wait Mongols, no wait Turks, no wait Germans, no wait Russians no wait Chinese.... Its like finding out who will play Batman in the next movie. As long as it's not freaking B...

9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory. So now I guess Mr P has to acknowledge MMGW as truth, because it's in Revelations. :roll: More pertinent, v. 12 when looked at in context is a symbo...

Did all the republicans that were against the medicaid part B expansion become Democrats in protest? How many people had their health care insurance and doctor taken away because of Medicare part b? The core is in the administration of it, for Dems. It's not as if, because Obamacare was botched, th...

We have a twelve-year old and she loves the commercial aspects. She genuinely loves the giving almost as much as the getting, picking out gifts with great care using my money ;) So, then. A socialist. We like spending our Christmas the old fashioned way. We nominate a guy to be the Yule king, give ...

I'm just glad that the DNA confirms we were all made within a six day period. That's absolutely impossible to argue with from the DNA evidence.

The democrats only hope to stay in power long term is a coup. Seriously? Do you guys even look at demographic trends? Dick Van Dyke will never represent the majority of Americans ever again, and that new America is not Republican. In any way, on hardly any issue. There is no future for the Republica...

Do me a favor, look up how much of the universe is dark matter and dark energy, and let me know what you find out. Then tell me your thoughts on dark matter and dark energy. I'm not going to play Socratic hide and seek, because you get a hard-on for the stupidest arguments, far too many for me to g...

You guys are like a stunned party of five year olds when the guy playing Santa arrives in a Buick. You mean there aren't eight tiny reindeer? He's not coming down the chimney? WTF SANTA'S NOT REAL!!! No, goober, Santa isn't real. Every politician at this level is a professional liar. None of them te...

You guys have to understand; for many, this is an all-or-nothing thing. Their understanding of things theological says that if you don't have an accurate ( literal) Genesis, then you don't have a faith. I don't see it that way, but you gotta figure solipsism is going to rear its ugly head in that, s...

Are you sure you want to increase the minimum wage? Gallup finds that three-fourths of Americans favor raising the federal minimum wage to $9 an hour, whereas 22 percent oppose such a proposal. This is similar to what the Reason-Rupe poll found earlier this year; however, support flips and 56 perce...

Every month people are going to get out their check books to pay their health insurance bill and say to them selves either F*ing Democrats or F*ing liberals. ...or F*ing goveernment. I doubt it, Berzers policy is up an cancelled and he remains as supportive of Democrats as ever. Wow, you can't even...

The Interstate is desirable because it allows high-volume traffic to maintain high average speeds over a long distance, and can easily be policed.

I don't care which one you cherry pick.

It matters a lot to me. Just pick one.

If it matters a lot to you, you already lost. Call it the NIV.

This is the faith statement that has taken the place of the future kingdom of heaven in the secular mind.

Underlying all this is the assumption that somehow the Republican party inherently owns my vote. I'm sorry that some people think it only goes two directions, but it's not my fault that they suffer from a lack of imagination. I don't want to vote for the war party or the other war party.

This is going to get cheaper, you know. 3D printer by Sask. man gets record crowdsourced cash He said his version was inspired by information he found online, so he's not filing for patent protection. He is also posting his plans on the internet. "It completely changes the game," Gerhard s...

I don't worry about Alinsky, nor do I worry about situations that were cast in stone decades ago, by the people and for the people. These are much larger movements. The subject above, who I have all sympathy for, will help to the best of my abilities in a one on one manner, and of whom I might even ...

dont care if they are scientists or theists or some funky blend of the two, they are telling me a story and my ability to confirm or deny that story is impossible. It sounds like this is not the case for Islam, but for Christianity nonbelievers are invited to study the scripture, pray and God will ...

You aren't talking about Latino gangs when you are talking about starving refugees. While we're on fantasies where did I talk about shooting starving refugees in the face. Maybe you ought to take your own fantasies more seriously. You might be able to eventually do without fantasies at all. Erm, do...

Whatever lets you kill people, I guess. Well it wasn't my idea. A liberal told me once he would send hispanic gangs out to kill christian conservatives in the future. I looked into it and it seemed like a promise more than a threat. It's entirely up to them. Doesn't matter to me one way or the othe...

Yeah, yeah, I know, you don't have the heart to be a leftist. You have the heart to shoot a starving family in the face with a $ 3k sniper rifle, but not to be a leftist, or a character from a badly-written fantasy novel, or whatever mental game you're playing today. Let me know how many people Noa...
