I know, you'll brook no further lip from me but I will only say one more thing before I walk away: You wanna save babies ? We gotta start considering women's lives too. Real live, already born women are suffering and dying because of this kind of law, it will cause a real live, real severe...

Yes because the opinion and medical judgement of men that were living at the time to slavery in America is better then the opinion and medical of 21st Century American's. Be against abortion. We're on a Catholic forum after all, but let's get real here: Enforcing a 170 year old that was on...

Supporting documentation for any claims for any statistical analysis during this post Anyway.... This was predictable. It was predicable for two easy to understand reasons even if those reasons are inconvenient for some people. The GOP is coming after the abortion rights and contraceptive...

Good move. No, seriously, good. move. Social Media with not only be the death of modern society. It will, in all likelihood, be the death of the internet as we know it. It's sad, really, but the creation of bots and trolls is a billion dollar a year industry and growing. I won't even...

Can someone be kind enough to explain to me just how my dignity as a human is bounded ? Where, when and under what circumstances is my dignity limited ? Just wondering.

Sorry , can't do it. Won't do it. Sue me. It's got nothing to do with pantheism, naturalism or nihilism. It got to do with physical science. We are stardust. Seriously, where do you think the substances that make up your body were made ? In the cores of Supernova. That's just cool. I...

Man I remember that fire. The Paris Fire Brigade acquitted itself so impressively. How they managed to put that fire out and save the skeleton of building and it's stained glass is amazing.

Not all anti-gay, anti-abortion people hold those views from a moral perspective. Some are Neo-Fascist, anti-democracy blessed son's of God. This crew invited Brexiteer Nigel Farage and Viktor Orban. Yeah. Sorry, I don't want to associated with these two in any way and I don't care if...

Simon - For a guy (person? - I mean I don't know your gender really) who claims to know nothing about Mr. Peterson this is a rather long and detailed critique. I'm especially impressed with the whole Neo-platonic section and the comparison to Mr. Peterson's thinking. Thank you for raising...

Not to be a grammar NAZI, but more for point of interest or edification: A "cemetery" is a free standing piece of land meant for burying the dead. If the piece of land meant for burying the dead is next to associated with a place of worship (like a church), it's correctly called a...

Well.... ...that's just impolite.

Well, he's not wrong. The Center for American progress statistics (I'm sorry I can't reference it right now - you'll have to rely on my reputation on this) claims immigrants are going to account for 1.7 Trillion dollars in additional GDP economic growth between now and 2035. That's a big...

I keep reading about this Jordan Peterson fella and I have looked up who he is but I can't for the life of me figure out why I (or anyone else) should give a flying fascination about anything he says or does. To me he's on par with the Kardasian's. Just famous for being famous. So what ?

See? Now you're just not being reasonable anymore. Just because I disagree

I've been having this conversation since high school. And, unfortunately, I've never come to any conclusion past the one I came up with in high school: Any philosophy that can't grow, is based on a set of ideas that conflict with reality and can't accept growth as our knowledge and tools...

I know you're trying to be reasonable here but I have to hard disagree. SWAT team, no knock warrants, shot first and claim to be scared later - this is just cop behavior in America today. It needs to change but it's not persuasion of people for their beliefs. It actually the Law enforcement...

WoW. There's a header on this forum that says this is a place for respectful debate. This article is many, many things but "respectful"? Not even close. In no particular order, this article: Suggests President Biden is a puppet. Accuses President Biden of being "angry" Seems to ignore...

I will re-read the article. {times passes} MMmm.... It seems I misread it. You are correct. My bad. I read faster than my eyes can see these days.....

Actually the word is "Recite", not "Read". The Koran is meant to be spoken out loud. In it's original Arabic is is quite beautiful and poetic.

Well, I've never been to Spain, But I kind of like the music.
