The thing is hapaboy, muslims very much do tend to view the US as being 'at war' (albeit a limited one) against their religion. I would bet my life that if you sat down for a dinner at any household in the muslim world and asked them and they answered you honestly their answer would be along...

Some dickheads just have nothing better to do.

Yeah, maybe. Although I think it would take a bit more than that. Afterall, we are talking about a full scale 'fuck 'em all and let God sort 'em out" job here. Right now, I think a "Madrid" in the US would get a lot of outrage yes, but given the difficulties in Iraq I think it would also...

Depending on the climate, I think another 9.11 impact level terrorist act would clinch that sort of response.

Sheesh, what fucking absolute scum these people are. To borrow a line from Turok, it matters not a whit to these people that this guy was there trying to help them. Any American will do. And it's not even an isolated case. How the fuck can electron even begin to compare this action with...

Unfortunately it's true dgab. I'm sure if I scoured the net I'd quickly find some lefty defending it. Not directly, as in "it's okay" that this guys was beheaded, and perhaps not even in a "it's just as bad as what we do" way either (although no doubt there would be some of those). Rather, you...

Unless you're ignoring me, you could try reading here

That's perfect, just the way you want to lose. Far worse to shoot 50% and then still lose the game. At least this way you can expect the numbers to move back towards the average.

I asked you once to explain this "power theory" and all you did was restated something about a race to be the criminal. What I want to know is what this means? Go into it a bit, flesh out this world you perceive the atheist as existing in. At least then we'll have something to discuss. For...

You're sick of the chicks in LA so you're looking at Mexico for something different? LoL.

And you're still the major league fat ass as you once described yourself to me? Or was that just you talking BS as usual?

ratboy, just tell him to make like a tree and get outta here! :D

Well I do, but it's not because of my trading. (And I didn't actually buy those houses myself....ever heard of having parents?)

To be honest, I really don't understand that "power theory" you're referring to. But as for OBL, surely you're aware that he, by all accounts, is quite the devout believer himself, aren't you? I'm quite certain he believes just as strongly as you that what he is doing is right. So...

In other words, theists use exactly the same techniques of moral reasoning as atheists. And the best theists can do is settle on a moral position and then 'hope' that it is the one God wants too. So, given that you too could be mistaken (maybe God doesn't like your moral position), how you can...

I certainly disagree with a whole heap of government programs, but to pretend they do absolutely nothing is absolutely ridiculous. This 'war', on the other hand, very much achieves absolutely nothing (and worse). Given the choice between $40billion of 'absolutely nothing' and (at least)...

Well fuck bungrider, they come close, but every conservative can't be right all the time! :D But seriously, aren't people allowed to change their minds? Would you prefer she (and other such conservatives) remained a road block on the highway of progress just for the sake of a foolish...

Just a note: to be embarrassed isn't the same as being ashamed. So one could indeed be proud of America's foreign policy and feel embarrassed by it (if it is brought up in conversation by people who disagree with it, for example). Similarly to how someone may be proud of his wealth and...

That's the opinion of one atheist. One I certainly don't share. jem, you were/are a lawyer, right? Do you really that's any kind of argument? It was Bertram Russell the atheist who once said, "Unless you assume the existence of God, then the purpose and meaning of life is irrelevant."...

Great poll candy. I'm looking forward to the results of the Middle East portion of the vote.
