The war on Iraq may or may not have been an incredible folly but Obama's not Bush. He may actually have some semblance of an intelligent strategy. It's likely that Bin Laden et al are in Northern Pakistan. Launching covert operations from Afghanistan's Kunar Province (where U.S. troops are...

Whose law? And speaking of possession.. The modern Jew lives by the Golden Rule: "He who has the gold makes the rules.".

Useful hypothetical since it proves time travel is impossible unless you buy the multiverse QT prediction.

U.S. must devalue currency to lessen debt.

IMO 5-yr chart sez IF we start uptrending NOW - moving further away from that dangerous 900.0 zone - we'll go to 1350 to 1400 in 6-12 mos. If we linger too long around 900.0 we probably start downtrending until the ETF's pack it in.

Good point. God might not be a 'personality' as we understand the term.

Perhaps those of us who examine indications of the non-existence of God (whatever that could possibly be) are selectively assigning 'evidence' status to mere indications of a possibility and then proceeding to a conclusion that suits their personal needs. If this is the case those persons would...

If God simply bestowed a perfect understanding on us there would be no need for us to have either intelligence or free will. There would be nothing to differentiate us from the termite whose understanding of its world is instinctual (God-given) and whose actions are determined soley by...

...and God bestowed on Man Free Will and Intelligence so that he might understand the implications of that Free Will and in that understanding know the meaning of God. [Gospel according to Biff] The Gospel according to Biff will be available in the latest rewriting of the Bible. There is...

Pretty bold prediction. Any rationale?

Pussies? The only reason I signed up for ballet is that I love hoisting those slender lovelies by the crotch. Why do you think male ballet dancers wear those giant cups - it's to hide their bone-ons.

OK, my bias was obvious from the outset, but that bias only applies to this particular situation. The more I see this thing the more convinced I am that to dignify this goof with the title "law enforcement officer" is a mockery of the title and an insult to every decent cop on the planet...

Checked it in at the door. Just settin' here in the saloon doin' me some thinkin'. But there's a lot going on in this saloon right now - hard for a man to do any serious thinking. I'll get back to you when I think I've found something to say. Pretty easy to fly off on tangents with such an...

True, the cop would be running the risk of being accused of using excessive force if he used muscle to subdue her and she were injured but in using a taser he was definitely using excessive force. She doesn't have the right to resist arrest and can expect repercussions but let's put a...

Both firearms and tasers are lethal weapons. The death rate from gunshot is undoubtedly considerably greater than the death rate from tasering but is by no means 100%.. and (according to some websites) at least 400 people have been killed by police tasering. The death rate from physical...

You'll go along with a 'false analogy'!? So you're rejecting the analogy. Anyway... again... Just as Existence is everything that exists within its ambit (everywhere) the Galaxy is everything that exists within its ambit (the limits of the galaxy). The fact that one ambit may be infinite...
