Taking a few hundred samples of wildlife from an entire forest is not the same as destroying it. Killing one old clam is not the same as harming the environment. The reality is that many of these discoveries will actually lead to advancements that will help sustain the environment. Scientists...

Do you have a source for this claim? I've never once heard of Hercules being closely associated with Mars. Ares is the usual analogue. Also, hi everyone. It's been a while.

Again, studies have demonstrated many times over that the majority of white people find encounters with those from cultures other than theirs uncomfortable, and take prejudicial action against such people (for instance, as was cited earlier, the average white woman will tend to lock her car...

She didn't need miraculous healing! She had diabetes, a completely treatable illness and was instead allowed to waste away for a month without assistance. Her parents were utterly negligent and deserve charges of negligent homicide brought against them. Are you telling us that God's plan was...

Would you have any realistic grounds for this, or are you just being knee-jerk spiteful because someone tried to get you to look in a mirror?

It's not nonsense. It actually makes a great deal of sense.

http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5gy_FocuLcPyslOqVeaOFan8yo7eQD8VLUSO01 The inevitable result of the let-God-take-the-wheel mentality rears its ugly head. When will people stop thinking that their religious beliefs can somehow trump trained professionals?

That's not at all what he believes or how his reasoning works. Are you saying that there is no feeling of general discomfort that the average white person has around people from other cultures or who are different than they are?

What are you talking about?

Really, quoting your own posts and calling them excellent? That's not the way you earn respect.

How delightfully Christian of you. It's posts like this that make disagreeing with you elsewhere so life-affirming.

No, none of us have disagreed. Stop being purposefully disingenuous, MachZer0. We all agree that while Wright's sermons are undoubtedly important to his congregation and hold spiritual value, they matter not a whit to the national political scene. We've said this many times over. Good try...

Don't worry about them, dlamberth. They're not interested in change for the better, just on maintaining the same sort of power base with the same sort of politics, and if it means tearing good people down to achieve that goal, so be it.

Your post is so full of wrong that I don't know where to begin. Like really, do I correct you on Wright's religion first? Or point out that Barack wasn't being unkind to his grandmother? I mean, it's like a maze of wrong.

And, as I pointed out in my follow-up post, Ringo meant important in the sense of importance with regard to the national political scene. Did you miss that?

Okay, let's stop here. There are some who are contending that Wright has made "anti-American" remarks. That's nonsense. Yes, he's said "God damn America," but in context it was simply a criticism of the way America has handled thing. That's not anti-American. That's trying to make your...

So was my dinner discussion with my father last night. That doesn't mean it had a significant impact on the national political scene.

How? Explain this. How is putting a metal pin on your jacket proving to others that you are a patriot? That would be fine, if he threw his grandmother "under the bus". But he didn't. I've examined both of their voting records extensively. But voting records are a pretty poor measure of...

Ringo meant important in the political sense. They are spiritually significant, but are utterly unremarkable when it comes to any actual impact on the political scene. All of this is being pushed for the sole purpose of smear campaigning, nothing more. The worst part is that you know this...

I don't need to. His actions speak plenty loud enough. The fact that he's been willing to dedicate his life to public service and the highest office in the country makes him unquestionably patriotic. If you think wearing a flag pin even registers compared to that, you have no idea what being...
