    The Obama Deception

    No, that's a red herring issue. I mentioned some real issues in the OP, and the documentary covers real issues as well. Obama has already stabbed his supporters in the back. He is working for the establishment, just as Bush did. The only change we got when Obama was elected is new bird cage...

    The Obama Deception

    It's been quite some time since I've posted here, but I have some important information to share. I was critical of Bush on these forums during the reign of his administration, and I'm critical of Obama just the same. To put it simply, there is no "change" with the election of Barack Obama...

    Transhumanism

    I guess that's really it isn't it. Our world-views (and religion) are going to shape how we view these technological developments. Personally, I don't think we should stop our technological development, but that we should stop to consider how we're going to apply them. Are we going to draw...

    Transhumanism

    Information, biological, computer, and nano technologies are growing at an exponential rate. There are many scientists who are saying that if we continue down this revolutionary path, mankind will merge with technology and become transhuman. The term transhumanism was coined by Julian Huxley...

    Just curious...

    New World Man, I'm not sure if I buy the peak oil theory. Have you ever heard of the abiotic oil theory? There is a strong possibility that oil is in fact a replenishable resource. Think about it, does the oil industry stand to gain from having an unending supply of oil that maintains supply...

    Just curious...

    I was just thinking the same myself. There are several countries that have stopped exporting certain foods all together. The United States imports something like 30% of our food as well. Put 2 and 2 together. Anyone noticed the shrinking food containers while the price has remained the...

    A question for those who want the government out of their lives

    Joshua, So, since you mentioned the Texas incident, your kind of government would regulate how people live their lives? With that said, I certainly don't agree with the cult, it's disgusting. Government is a fearful master. If you don't keep it reigned in you'll be wearing the reigns.

    A question for those who want the government out of their lives

    "A nation that asks nothing of government but the maintenance of order is already a slave in the depths of its heart; it is a slave of its well-being, ready for the man who will put it in chains." -- Alexis de Tocqueville, Democracy in America, 1835 Joshua, Your OP frames this debate in a...

    Is Christianity a beaten religion?

    It is truly frustrating when the worst examples of Christianity today are taken to be representations of Christians as a whole. Personally, as a follower of Jesus Christ, I find most (if not all with the exception of a few) megachurch pastors and televangelists to be totally opposite of the...

    A dystopic future coming?

    What?! There are never behind closed doors meetings. History isn't filled with examples of conspiracy, backstabbing, and secrecy. Governments around the world have always been honest, caring, and open. Power never seeks more power. Men in positions of power never abuse it, and secret societies...

    The American people know the truth. The establishment's veil has grown thin. We have had enough of your nonsense. Vote None of the above for a safer, more prosperous America. ...Can I vote for George Washington?

    What makes someone a patriot?

    Perhaps a patriot would denounce both parties in an unwavering stance?

    What makes someone a patriot?

    That's a good question. Personally, I'd say that groups within each side could qualify as the kiss ups. The love of power and the act of serving it knows no party boundaries. You'll always find individuals and groups warming up to the power structure out of fear, a belief that it will...

    What makes someone a patriot?

    Parson Jefferson, I was being sarcastic, as I'm sure you caught on to. I wasn't refering to any one person. I'm trying to show the exact opposite of patriotism and love of freedom. Just in case you were wondering, the bowing down and licking the hand that feeds you came from this Samuel...
