Re: Respect towards atheists

Wow what a mess. I am glad to see a mod in here (Redeye) but wow. I admit I was a bit aggressive and I would like to say to Ter, Howl and AA that I was a bit of an arse and I am sorry for that. Hmn

I do want to ask Howl, how was Mov pushing Ters buttons?

Re: Loved one...

Is there any reason why you could not just throw a projectile at the driver or the car itself? I may not work but if you can force the car to swerve then you may actually get a result. Though it all depends. In the end if I could not I would have to say no. It's not like said girl will treat me the ...

Re: Venting

Well yeah, I am talking about political vents where any further dicussion is moved to it's only threads. Also we pretty much already have a political thread. The Respect Towards atheists thread is a religious/lack of based one which is another sore spot to talk about along with political ideas. This...

Re: Respect towards atheists

I will get to the other points raised later but for now, on the question of Biblical violence: If anyone curses his father or mother, he must be put to death. If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death. Then the LORD said t...

Re: Respect towards atheists

Can love be explained using the Scientific Method? Attraction can... desire can... but can actual LOVE. So based upon your understanding of the world, love isn't real either. Yeah it can so pretty much the rest of your post falls through. What proof would you need to prove God exists? Testable proo...

Re: Respect towards atheists

However, the problem with finding "proof" is what type of proof would you need to prove the existence of God? That's the problem. It's hilariously convenient how god cannot be proven by Scientific method and people just know he is there. It lets him exist without any proof otherwise other...

Re: Respect towards atheists

Personally I find a lot of people are still pissy with atheists. They cannot take their views being questioned on what is basically a public venue half the time. Some people still treat Atheism like a dirty word, even more so in more higher religious places like the USA, Latin America etc. Luckily i...

Re: Venting

On a different note, should we have a separate political thread from the venting thread, so that we can separate arguments from rants?
Yes, it would make sure everything stays where it should stay.

Oh and on the whole issue in general. Ter I can see why you are frustrated but to be honest you still have a chance. There is little chance for the Repubs to gain too much in 2010 and Obama has many years left and even more if he gets a second term. The early spinelessness of the Dems coupled with i...

Re: Venting

Well Redeye, I ask this, if you are going to lock threads about politics when they are made separately then what do you expext us to do? Not talk about it at all? Good luck with that. Too many people want to talk about it or at least mention it and thus we have had several threads already. If you le...

Re: Venting

I am sorry but I have to say congrats to Brown in MA. I hope this gives the Democrats a shock to their system and help kick their spinelessness a bit. The Democrats also suck up to the corporations as much as the GOP do and it is not a respectable thing.

We're talking about the fanatics, not the average person. I know but the 90% of Twilight's fanbase IS normal people. People who want to see a glitzy romance story. People who want to see a topless Jacob. People who don't see the bad writing. These are the same people who would of loved Titanic a fe...

Some of the Founding Fathers are probably laughing their incorporeal heads off at what the People will put up with these days. Ah well, it seemed a good idea at the time...

Re: Don't see New Moon. I beg you...

Avatar is a very pretty movie, with a couple awesome concepts here and there, but it's pretty plot-light. Well, plot-light on anything that hasn't been done a thousand times in the exact same way . It's still a major step up from Twilight: New Moon . Twi-tards don't need boot camp, they need rehab....

click here for the tropes Before I say anything, try not to use TV Tropes as anything more than a really basic reference. That site is inhabited by Fatty Nerds and Pencil Necked Weeaboo's. It also leads to horrible things like people trying to avoid certain "Tropes" due to how often they ...

Terry's original point is still rather correct - banning Minarets isn't going to solve anything. It's going to piss off moderates and energize the radicals. Pushing away the moderates is a poor idea because then you're left with the assholes, or you have more assholes, because you've gone and pushe...
