True, but since there are individuals claiming both sides of X, on which does the burden of proof lie? Also, what type of evidence would prove the non-existence of God to be probable? If the definition of God includes the idea that He uses the laws of nature to accomplish various actions...

Actually it was more like kidding/hoping. LOL unbelievable number of mistakes. Especially by the DBs. I think it woulda been a better game had it not been for 2-3 plays. 1-- The idiot safety who gave Moss the second TD. 2-- The retard who got hit by the bad punt. 3-- The stupid...

That's why I said Mitt probably won't get my vote. Unless RP is running with him. Anyway, mormons have run before and polygamy was a non issue then.

You're kinda reinforcing what I said. It isn't bad to change your mind when you gain further knowledge. I'll tell you a couple of my personal opinions on God that relate to what you're saying. I have no problem when science cannot explain something, because I do believe in God. I don't...

The official statement is that the prophet saw the secular annihilation of the church if polygamy were to continue. The only thing mormons can thank the U.S. government for is driving them from state to state, torturing them, siezing their property, and finally only backing off when they...

Both of your points are sort of pointless. The Inquisition doesn't really have anything to do with my catholic friends. So it isn't fair to hold it against them. But it also isn't even on the same playing field as the Mt. Meadows Massacre. The Inquisition lasted 350 years and resulted in...

Dude, it is really a non-issue. My wife's ancestor was of Mitt's great-grandfather's generation and also had 4 wives. The only side-effect of his 4 wives is that there are a few more people in the area with the same last name. Other than that, polygamy plays absolutely no role in our lives...

It isn't a matter of settling. Your example isn't really pertinent to the topic. The conditions in the market are ever-changing. your first 100 trades matched the prevailing conditions, while the latter 100 didn't. It is up to a trader to correctly identify the current conditions and change...

Polyandry..... but I see your point. Anyway, I can't imagine how incredibly difficult it would be to have numerous wives, in the real world.

The Bible for the most part doesn't grow nor change. The interpretation of specific passages is the issue. The defining characteristics of the different sects are the result of which passages each considers to be literal, and which are considered symbolic. My personal belief (not speaking...

It is becoming of any intelligent person to seek continued understanding. This should often lead to a change in opinion. I doubt however that a person can switch back and forth between believer and non-believer. To me this is simply a characteristic of one who is indecisive and gullible...

Good statement. I consider myself a very logical person. In fact, logic is what I base much of my religious faith on. OTOH, I would also urge believers to realize that they don't have sole proprietorship over righteousness.

Well said.

Sadly enough I've said the same thing. Unfortunate that people don't get informed enough to vote on the issues. Fortunately, I do think Mitt is capable of doing a good job, although he likely won't get my vote.

I think most mainstream mormons are still proud of the name mormon. But it is still just a nickname. Anyone can claim it. I don't have a problem with that. I don't understand your second paragraph. I never said that Catholics and Lutherans were fired up about Mormons. I suggested that...

Not saying that they don't have the right to claim the name "mormon". The name mormon is just a nickname. If they want to claim it, they can. I do think it is unfair to lump them together though. A catholic doesn't want to be mistaken for a Lutheran. Even so, a mainstream mormon doesn't...

Don't remind me. I didn't even watch that game because I thought it would be a blowout. Anyway, to say that they are overrated isn't fair. Number one defense in the league right now. Recent superbowl ring. Recent coaching change and picked up right where they left off. They are always...

Pitt all the way. They really need Polamalu back to beat the Pats though. The last couple games have shown that they aren't as much of a blitz threat without him. But Pitt is great against NE for one reason. NE is a passing team and Pitt's passing defense is second to none.
