"And so, in my State of the—my State of the Union—or state—my speech to the nation, whatever you want to call it, speech to the nation—I asked Americans to give 4,000 years—4,000 hours over the next—the rest of your life—of service to America. That's what I asked—4,000 hours." George W. Bush, 9 April 2002

That genus (Lucy and all) suffers from several inconsistancies to what would accepted as in the line of man. First, there are issues with the brain cavity being too small, the claim that they walked upright has been refuted by many paleoanthropologists, the skull of lucy in particular has been shown to be more chimpanzee like tha

I just can’t imagine a loving God taking a decent, hardworking, loving person and casting them into torment because they do not believe EXACTLY what the book says. Neither can any person with a brain and a heart, but millions of Christians believe exactly this.

there certainly are strong ethical considerations Like what? If you're implying that a woman comtemplating an abortion should consider whether some other family might like to have her baby and that she therefore h

"Everybody Wants to Rule the World" is a great song. And let us not forget "Come On Eileen" by Dexy's Midnight Runners, and "Everybody Have Fun Tonight" by Wang Chung. Haha, fucking Wang Chung!! WANG CHUNG!! They rule. Sort of.

Are we to assume, then, that all rich people are intelligent? Of course not, but that wasn't Brad's point. He made his point explicitly: stupid people are more likely to be poor.

If you are asking did his good works/righteous ways get him into heaven then the answer is no. Question answered? An excellent summary of all that is horrible, wrong, and demented about the Christian religion.

I guess as long as I tag a question mark on every accusation I make I can weasel out of it later. Hmm, could Bulboushead be an alien? I take no offense to the implication that I might be an alien; it would save me from having to bear the label "human."

I think hackers expose them, that is why it is moral. This logic is somewhat circular. "Hackers detect the weakness, so the software companies can fix them, so the consumer will be protected...[i]from attacks by hackers[/i]." It's like saying that someone

A transition without transitional forms? I guess you've never heard of the genus Australopithecus or the other species of our genus Homo, which have been found in fossil form, not in fantasy-fiction form. But, as usual, I'm sure the facts don't interest you

Criminals break laws, terrorists also break laws. Soldiers kill, terrorists kill, criminals kill. We have the facilities to differentiate. You still haven't answered the question. You said that terrorists do not fit the definition of "criminal." Again I ask: What is your definition of criminal?

Weren't there other states out there (that Gore won) that were as close and as inaccurate as Florida? The difference in Florida was less than 3000 votes out of almost 6 million total votes. No other state was nearly that close, so the accuracy was not so much of an issue.

Question for BakerStreet: Since terrorists are not warriors and are not conducting a war, do you, in theory, see the United States' role in ending terrorism as a law enforcement action rather than an armed conflict? Aren't these non-warriors and non-soldiers subject to treatment as criminals by the court system rather than as prisoners of war?

BTW, I noticed no one has disagreed with the fact that UN approval on any subject essentially means getting France, Russia, and China to agree with us. Do you really think most Americans, if they realized that, would take the UN as seriously as some of you seem to? I won't disagree with that because it'

The military will prosecute any enlisted or officer who attempts to marry outside of their "class." Where is the ACLU on that one? Since there is no draft, everyone in the armed forces has willingly and voluntarily signed up for the life they lead and the rules to which they are subject. If you don't l

End of story. Because you said so? [www.m-w.com] gives: religious: (adj.) "relating to or manifesting faithful devotion to an acknowledged ultimate reality or deity." You can acknowledge the existence of a God or gods or goddesses while not manifesting a faithful devotion to him or her or them.

Stretch if you like, but when you equate acts of war to someone stepping onto a bus strapped with explosives, it goes a bit beyond playing devil's advocate. I wasn't looking to stretch; I think demonstrating that you have the ability to annihilate a city is more terrorizing and terrifying than demonstra
