I'd like to propose two scenarios: Person A is driving at 40 miles an hour. He runs a stop sign and T-bones a car on its right side as a result. The passenger's seat was empty, and the driver did not sustain any serious injuries. Person B is driving at 40 miles an hour. He runs a stop sign and...

North Texan Wins 'White Man' Scholarship What do people think of this? It's obviously partly a passive-aggressive jab at minority scholarships. I disagree with their tactic of fighting fire with fire, but I totally agree with the message they're sending. I think it's ridiculous how...

Am I the only pro-gay-rights person that is annoyed by how often this accusation is leveled against anybody who opposes gay rights? It's totally immature and silly. I mean, yes, you do have those few examples like Ted Haggard where that was the case, but this thinking that everybody with an...

Let's say that you could magically cause a rape victim's fetus to be safely delivered before the 9 months gestation were over, with no pain as a result. In short, the pregnancy becomes a non-issue. But, the cost of this would be one living child's life. Would you allow the rape victim to make...

One problem I see with our justice system is that it seems so bent on vengeance. The purpose I see for punishment of criminals is its function as a deterrent, yet the current way we do it seems to just be bent on "getting them back". For instance... let's say that somebody runs a red light and...

Anybody that needs to create a thread to announce their new law is not deserving of the honor of their name attached to a law.

I recently saw this in a thread: I must wonder, if this is the case, then why don't all Christians have the exact same interpretation of the Bible?

Westboro Baptist Church sued for funeral picketing What does everyone think of this? A lot of people I've spoken with have said that they feel a funeral should be a sort of "off-limits" thing for protest. I disagree. I think that free speech is an inalienable right, and when we go labeling...

For some of the prominent anti-gay posters here, what are your opinions of the Westboro Baptist Church and their open campaign of hatred?

Simple challenge. I've yet to see a single reason outside of "It's icky" or "God said so" that homosexuality is wrong.

Let's look at the facts. Around 50% of molestations are homosexual in nature. Only 2% of molestations are by self-identifying homosexuals. 3% of the population are self-identifying homosexuals. Therefore, those people you meet who are openly gay are actually less likely to molest your...

Statement: Many gay people live promiscuous lives. Conclusion: Therefore, we cannot allow gay people to participate in a declaration of commitment to one another. :scratch:

Should it be legal or not? I think that it should be legal. I fail to see why if inappropriate contentography is legal, prostitution should not be. The only difference between the two is who is paying. Also, legalizing prostitution allows for regulation of the industry to make it much safer.

To those people that claim this is the reason homosexuality, oral sex, birth control, etc... are you also against the ownership of pets? Our instinct which denotes what is "cute" is actually a mechanism which makes us want to raise and nurture our babies. Animals which have baby-like faces...

Does it go against God's command to be fruitful and multiply?

...if your child told you that he or she was gay, with no remorse or willingness to change? This is mostly directed at those who do not believe that homosexuality is OK, though anyone else is free to chime in. I'm curious because I am in the position of a closeted gay atheist with a...

Just a poll. EDIT: Sorry, I forgot to add an actual poll :doh:

After all, every time you pick up a pen you have a choice whether to use your right or left.

I' m listening to his 5th symphony right now. I love it.

but it seems like I'm back to where I was years ago, I'm actually considering the possibility of Christianity again. It just seems odd, that the subject of Christian apologetics keeps coming up in conversations I have, and at church, and it just seems to be more than a coincidence. Just the...
