I'm not interested in changing your viewpoint. It's immaterial to me. If you change it or keep it, that's your business and right. But you still not have addressed the question as to why one would be afraid of salvation. The fact that people today, as well as from times past. rely on...

It's impossible to assert non-existence. One can only conclude non-existence. You can't run around stating, "prove there is no God!" That's asinine. One cannot prove a negative. Therefore, one cannot assert a negative. Theists assert that there is a God, yet offer no proof which would...

Why would a non-believer be scared of such a wonderful notion such as salvation? That doesn't make any sense. Doesn't salvation and forgiveness go hand-in-hand? What kind of lives do you think non-believers live? I find them in many respects but not across the board, to be more "moral" than...

Atheists do not assert non-existence. They conclude non-existence. In a way, an atheist is agnostic in that should those who assert existence, prove existence, both the atheist and agnostic will embrace existence. It's really that simple. Could oxygen be seen before a STM was invented...

True. But a proof that cannot be reproduced is worth no more than to perpetuate false hope. For instance, pick any religion, and the faithful at one time or another share some sort of affirming "testimony." Say, a healing or a miracle or some sort. The odds of reproduction are so small, one...

Onus is not on me to prove something I do not assert. It's asinine to run around saying, show me proof there is no God, when the one asserting that there is cannot show proof that one exists. What if I said to you, since there is no proof to the contrary that aliens from a planet on the...

The problem with the analogy of a map and the bible is a simple one. Following a map does not take faith, it takes trust. I can immediately go out and test to see if the map is correct (trustworthy) or not. And generally at each step of the way. With the bible or any religious book...

The reason the poll is the way it is, is not because Blacks think Obama is electable, but rather than they think whites and this country are not ready for a Black president. Many Blacks feel that if Obama is elected, there will be assassination attempts on his life. The poll is correct. You...

Public board, friendo. But what would you expect considering the ills that those that call themselves Christian impart upon not only themselves but the rest of the world. Think about that. Most that call themselves Christians, do not "live and let live" in the slightest but rather are at...

Not at all. Allow me to explain why. To say there is a god or gods is an extraordinary claim that implies extraordinary evidence. What's more, a theist asserts the existence of god(s) based on variable criteria yet never hammering down exactly what God is. In fact the theist goes so far as...

The evidence doesn't show that there is no God. There fails to be tangible evidence that there is a God. It may seem like a game of semantics, but the implications are night and day. What you said says that there is definitive proof that there is no God. So to say that there is evidence that...

The question is, did YOU read what he wrote? Perhaps that's the penalty for excessive order submission which exceeds the message limit? It's not as if IB blocks the offending excess messages per second to their system. Just like on GLOBEX, you can change your orders all day long over the 5...

What kind of ridiculous and obtuse rebuttal is this? You might as well not responded at all. In the least you could have done yourself the courtesy of actually attempting to prove your point without gainsay and ignorant innuendo. Indeed my posts speak for themselves as it has spoken for...

"Safeguards" have little to do with the prevention of account blowups. If one is like Stock777, they might prefer the "death by 1000 cuts" method of blowing out your account. If one is like others, they might prefer the "Kamikaze" method of blowing out your account. Account blow ups...

Mmm, ok. But that's not really the reality of it. Most cases involve reporting mere information concerning a crime committed by a stranger. Simple eyewitness things like description, time of day, what was heard, which direction the perpetrator went. We're not talking about turning someone in...

LOL. Yes, LOL. Why? Because it's the percent that counts not the number. If Blacks make up say 15% of the entire US population but 35% of them are in prison... And, if say whites make up 60% of the entire US population but 10% are in prison... Do the math. And that was only...

This is a good point. It's to the point that Blacks in their communities do not even report crime for fear of retribution. When police conduct investigations, blacks who might be witnesses nearly invariably refuse to offer any information for fear of being labeled a "snitch" and all that that...

Are you sure about that? Yes, stock777 does not appear to know what he is doing. I agree. Sure is. Only thing they need to do is to continue to give fair warning of margin policy change. So far so good though. The whole "anytime without notice" is unnecessary given their other...

What? Do you see me complaining about IB's margin policy? No. First off, the argument against using margin is nonsensical. Especially when it comes to futures. If one is making an argument against trading high volatility instruments, then that's something worth discussing. Second of all...

Think of it as complimentary. White people are mostly rational enough to realize that "typical" is a word used to denote a valid generalization. Now, when referring to say, a black youth age 16-29, if a white person were to say that the typical black youth listens to hip-hop, a Black person...
