Re: Hillary's Ticking Timebomb

Racism
Did I step into a portal to 2005? This issue has been dealt with: there's no more time to worry about hurt feelings when the barbarians are at the gates and Rome is burning.

Re: Hillary's Ticking Timebomb

lol no that's not what I was implying. They could find any Democratic rep. or senator whom is a carbon copy of Obama/Hillary. That's the issue, there are 300 possible candidates in the house and senate, not including the 45 Dem. governors out there. The Dem party could spring a pale horse at the las...

Re: Hillary's Ticking Timebomb

She's a part of the political class. They don't jail their own.

My theory at this point, though things may change, is that another figure will emerge from the shadows to take the reigns, like Obama's meteoric rise in 2008 that completely overshadowed Hillary.

Re: Red Cross issues?

This is a shame to me. I am a lifeguard at a gym, and we are sponsored by Red Cross. We meet all their standards, proudly I might add, and so they let us use their name and certification. I've been trained and retrained by them for many hours, and appreciate their hard work towards preserving and ho...

Re: Atheists: Does anything attract you to Christianity?

If you equate God causing the Big Bang, with pulling something out of our butts, then your openness to metaphysics is severely lacking. You might want to look into The metaphysical proof for God again. Our main website can successfully answer these questions. A general introdution, http://godandsci...

Re: Has godandscience.org ever been rebutted by secular/atheist websites?

I once read a Qoura thread on godandscience.org, essentially it was a bunch of atheists getting butthurt over the website. Most were claiming that this website's entire premise was based on a fallacy, I can't remember which one though. Very disheartening, maybe you could find the thread and comment...

Re: Poland Rises Against Islam - Fr.Miedlar addresses the March For Independence, 11 Nov 2015 (Eng subs)

Those that do not learn from history are prone to repeat it. Look at the last Islamic expansion, how it went, see the many similarities, learn from it and then realize what it took THEN to stop them. The jihad didn't really stop, it just ran out of money around the early 1600s. And so it was put on...

Re: Has godandscience.org ever been rebutted by secular/atheist websites?

Godandscience.org is a rather old website, I think as old as 1998. Some of the essays, articles and arguments Rich Deem has made used links. Unfortunately, on the internet, things rarely last forever. And so a lot of the links he uses as sources and further evidence are broken. The real kicker is th...

Re: Alright, i got a good question.

I am basing the following ideas mostly on Vox Dei's book "The Irrational Atheist" which was both reviewed by and recommended by Rich Deem. Loved it. For me, the big 3 all fall under the same umbrella of "unbeliever". Underneath this canopy are the simplest class of unbelievers, w...

Re: So, You're Offended? A Victim, You Say?

When these mewling kids use the word "safe zone" it automatically implies that the area around the "safe zone" is "unsafe" and is therefore "dangerous".

Never, ever forget the power of words my friends. Control the language, and you control the argument.

Re: Immigration: Interesting Commentary

I like the top comment. "I didn’t know it was possible to not rile up the left. I just thought they were offended by everything." Immigration is another issue where the "optics" appear black and white. If you welcome anybody, literally, anybody into this country, you are pro-immi...

Re: Bed Bugs ?

Your argument is a good one, why would God create a universe where parasites can exist. I think it goes like this, though it is very abstract: if we as humans were immune to parasites, we'd think we had "special blood" or were somehow divine beings, which is not biblical truth. Now, of cou...
