    Do gays in the military lower the morale any more?

    It seems that General SHALIKASHVILI has had a change of heart http://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/02/opinion/02shalikashvili.html?ex=1325394000&en=9bed174af632cb6e&ei=5090&partner=rssuserland&emc=rss That was then, This is now. Why the sudden change? I see. The gays didn't get any better. The...

    U.S. military casualties in wars since 1775.

    This is true. On North Vietnameses' independence day in Sept 1945, a US delegation was at the ceremony, and US aircraft did a low-level flyover for the ceremony! Ho Chi Minh could not have been friendlier to the US! If only we didn't foolishly believe our anticommunist rhetoric...

    Does God Suffer From Vanity?

    I take this as an admission that you cannot come up with a better argument. So you were lying. Liar.

    Does God Suffer From Vanity?

    This is lamer than I expected. You said you knew better arguments but didn't provide any. Now you're telling me to google search myself? Do you have or have not better arguments that religion/bible is wrong/fake than what vhehn presented? If you do, share them. If you don't, then you were just...

    Does God Suffer From Vanity?

    Care to share those "better information than he offered?" I'm curious whether one can come up with even better arguments than what he "cut and pasted." If you say you can, I'd like to see them.

    They always die in threes.....

    Since you're nitpicking with numbers, at least you should get them right. 3.145% of 2,193,798 is not 689,968, it's 68,997. You're off by a factor of 10. And you're using the wrong population too. Total black population in the US is about 35 million. 3.145% of that is about 1.1 million. That...

    3000 mark

    http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/12/31/iraq.deathtoll/index.html Anyone who says that this is far fewer than Vietnam is too cold-blooded. 3000 American lives for what?

    Does God Suffer From Vanity?

    Now we're debating the virgin birth? I don't know about that. But for sure Joseph had sex with his wife: Matthew 1:24When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. 1:25But he had no union with her until she gave birth to a son...

    Saddam is dead, are we safer now?

    Probably the "Fort Sumter" moment of the Iraqi civil war.

    The flip side of the question is, is everyone guaranteed an afterlife?

    Intelligent Design is not creationism

    Those you're trying to convince that ID is not creationism. Don't tell me that you started this whole thread just as a futile exercise. On second thought, maybe you did.

    Does God Suffer From Vanity?

    Is the total number of lives conserved? I think we would have a counting problem or some people who don't have a previous life.

    Why did you start this thread if no one needs convincing? Shoot yourself in the foot again?

    What really happened ....11 september

    A mountain of motive does not make a case. In fact, that usually makes for a perfect decoy.

    Intelligent Design is not creationism

    I see. Just like a "limited" gravity theory which applies only to rocks, or "limited" quantum theory which applies only to positively charged particles. How can such theories be scientific (and not a joke)?

    Intelligent Design is not creationism

    Your view matters as much as mine. Why should anyone care? As I stated, if one of the founders of the ID theory says it's creationism, shouldn't people believe him rather than someone who can't even get their quotes straight?

    What really happened ....11 september

    That's assuming that Bush can understand cause and effect. I think you're overestimating him.

    Is Bush's Troop Surge A Good Idea Or Madness?

    You took your position, the market goes in the direction of your trade for a brief moment, then reverses sharply. Your first mistake is that you forgot to place a stop. Staring at a large loss, your second mistake is to hold. Holding proves disasterous. Big loss turns into an even bigger loss...
