What is? That someone who has suffered through racial taunts would, nevertheless, consider race a meaningful human category? I already said that I don't advocate purposely disadvantaging anybody because of his race. Certainly not so directly as a racial slur or a firebomb through his...

But the funny thing about that book (I have it) is that so few of the stories end with the person actually having found life fulfillment - or even occupational fulfillment. In fact, that book is what spurred me into considering that real fulfillment should be derived from outside one's work...

Given the controversial nature of the topic, I was willing to give him a pass. It's understandable that a person weaned on liberal pieties would find my views abhorrent. But if they're going to object to you and hound you, you expect that eventually they'll attempt to actually debate...

So we've gone from 'could very well be' to 'may' be. That's a little vague isn't it? My hitting the 'Submit Reply' button after finishing this post may be - by some convoluted chain of causation - catastrophic for America. I don't mean to be smart, but could I ask you to spell out the...

Ah, but you don't let them.

I've never once claimed nor even intimated that I have such a right. Go and reread your own posts stu. It is my (our) beliefs you begrudge.

I'm tired of you fucking moron. In the same post that you were questioning my literacy and intelligence you had the audacity to question why I, an 'aussie', didn't turn out like Robert Hughes. The suggestion that you study bell curves was therefore made so you could understand distribution...

Oh no you weren't. You stated clearly that you had a 'viable framework' that was an alternative to my statistics based views. Why don't you explain it me? I mean, it galls you that I'm such a supposed 'racist' and yet you won't make the slightest effort to reform me. Nik, it strikes me...

It would explain your childish posts quite well. See above. Nicky, this is a trading site. Pabst is a respected vet with a great deal of knowledge to offer. It makes perfect sense that Pabst would be asked to stay. I guess some people just don't believe in hanging others for their...

Isn't this 'fascism' Rearden?

So what made you change sides? Why am I yet to hear one word of this 'viable framework'? If it could be substituted for my complacent statistics-based racism, why wouldn't you alert me to it? What is so monstrous about wishing to limit the procreation of the lowest classes, especially...

No. Incorrect. Because you would have to first show that I hate blacks. Or that I am a white supremacist. You have not shown this. Merely assumed it. By your argument you would have to demonstrate this before we could even begin to examine the extent of my grammatical or spelling errors...

Why the sarcasm? France would clearly be better off - almost immeasurably so - if it carved out a statelet into which it could pack every Muslim (and African). No question.

Yeah, that really bums a guy out doesn't it? If only the banks didn't always win, especially if they always lost, then ho boy, getting ahead or staying in the middle (broke's never fun) would be just so cool, so fulfilling, wouldn't it, pinko bunny?

Realized I had responsibilities to people other than myself and that 'careers' are really a modern invention and that there's no requirement one derives one's earthly satisfaction from one, therefore you go and do your job - anyone that your ass is lucky enough to get - and 'find yourself'...

No, you show some evidence of having searched, of having used your own initiative to find some answers instead of expecting others to spoonfeed you them. It's just standard netiquette.

So then you do begrudge me my beliefs. Sheesh. Make your mind up. (All that even despite my admitting I don't believe the entire Bible is literally true. A hard man to please.)

I'm having trouble following you. Is this argument: as long as Americans are in Iraq and Americans are polarized about that, terrorists are emboldened. If Americans can be forced to abandon Iraq, then it turns catastrophic for America. The real danger of disunity, then, is that American might...

You don't? Well you certainly did a good impression of one who does. If that is your only beef with Christians, that they 'shut their doors', why the prattle about evolution (or the pope or whatever)?

Do you really want to make that bet? I'm aware of research that shows blacks are more criminal across all socioeconomic classes. The rest of your post simply reminds us that whites, too, can be and have been violent - as if anyone would have denied it. The point is, holding environments as...
