Q The administration's mantra for a long time has been "support the troops." What is the reaction, then, when you read this series of stories in The Washington Post about troops coming home from Iraq, Afghanistan and being treated so poorly, apparently, based on this long investigation? What's...

For awhile, there was at least an impression of a dialogue. Now even that pretense is removed. I wonder how z10 reads the Bible...

You don't even know Hegel. Do you know what existentialism is? Since you are a big fan of Buddhism, do you know the connection between existentialism and Buddhism?

No native English speaker can come up with such a sentence. tel·e·ol·o·gy (tĕl'ē-ŏl'ə-jē, tē'lē-) pronunciation n., pl. -gies. 1. The study of design or purpose in natural phenomena. 2. The use of ultimate purpose or design as a means of...

That's funny. What you have cited so far are all opinions of others. There are no data. Maybe you were simply confused about what is an opinion, and what is data. Go back and read your posts. They were all from the opinion columns of newspapers or news magazines. Why were they in the opinion...

This guy's an idiot.

Lol... This is good. For a long time, because of the lack of experimental verification, the Big Bang theory was called a "cult" by some people. Does that count? :D

Whoever wrote that joke, never went to college. In fact, she never lived in this world. If you ever worked on a team project in college, you'd know what I mean. Everyone on the team gets the same grade, but only two or three people do the actual work. Is it not fair? Not really. Because...

Where did you get that idea from? I am also opposed to big government conservatism.

You're not worth it (my "own logical arguments"). Maybe I'll do that when you demonstrate that your knowledge level is beyond that of a 2nd grader. You don't even know Hegel. I almost feel sorry for you.

This is classic. Z10 doesn't even know where he got it wrong. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenomenology_of_Spirit If you think you can understand this world without knowing any of the prior knowledge (we already know what your attitude is towards science), you're either the biggest genius...

Have you read "Phenomenology of Spirit?"

Was reading through Ron Paul's speeches, and was very impressed. Here is one that has very harsh criticism of the neocons: http://www.house.gov/paul/congrec/congrec2003/cr071003.htm "More recently, the modern-day neocons have come from the far left, a group historically identified as former...

Post hoc ergo propter hoc Edit: In case some idiots still don't understand. Look at this example. Was Jeffrey Dahmer's mother responsible for his murders? How about his grandmothers? How about his great grandmothers? Surely if his great grandmothers didn't give birth to any children, none of...

This is just sheer nonsense. Do you know how neutral theory of evolution computes the speed of evolution?

z10: ID is simply not ignorant chance. teleo: ID doesn't dispute that random mutations and natural selection play an important role in the evolutionary process. It seems that you guys should debate each other instead of against science.

Then explain to us why would the ID advocates want to teach ID as an alternative to evolution (not an alternative perspective on evolution as you state here)?

You just don't get it, do you? There is no "blind watchmaker hypothesis." If there were, it would be unscientific just as the ID. There are two catogeries of problems in science. Those that are understood (meaning we know how these things work) do not require invocation of designers. Those...

You're really thick. I was trying to give you a clue on how to get out of the Gilbert+1 dilemma. You think it was a trap. You have no depth in your thought.

2 sentences, 5 bushisms. Very impressive.
