    Mark 10:23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! 10:24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in...

    Why do they hate us?

    that does not go as far as the essay did -- this is not an appropriate topic for discussion here, but suffice to say that a politician should be very careful tying AIDS rates to cultural and religious factors. without doubt. I still offer that the hatred directed toward the US is larger by...

    Why do they hate us?

    it collectively attributes negative characteristics to a group based on race, religion, and national origin. whether or not it is "racist," it seems clear that if almost any other protected group were substituted for "middle-eastern" in this essay, it would have been clearly "racist" and unfit...

    America Spreading Democracy

    maybe that was Jose Maria Aznar dressed up in a military outfit, in hiding and afraid to go back to Spain after the Azores meeting. Actually a good move on Rumsfeld's part - if the war went badly he could have blamed it on Aznar, and then 80% of Americans would have supported a war on...

    America Spreading Democracy

    what reason could there have been for a maniacal serial murderer to destroy his own weapons on the eve of an invasion to remove him from power (an invasion caused by his refusal to surrender those same weapons)?

    America Spreading Democracy

    the proper term is "the coalition of the willing" -- to better distinguish it from the nations that have involuntarily joined to wage preemptive war.

    Why do they hate us?

    it seems definitely "racist,"* maybe not truly racist, though statements like this seem to come close: substitute "Africa" or "Latin America" or "Indian" for the middle east in that essay, and ask if that would be "racist," even including the "practical objective" qualifier... identical...

    Why do they hate us?

    an interesting essay - a more direct statement of the neoconservative theory, based on a fundamental racist belief in middle-eastern inferiority, coupled with egotism, materialism, and nationalism. pointing out and discussing the unproven assertions and ridiculous assumptions would be futile...

    Tolerance is for others

    without a doubt. and the blame rests between the power-drunk judges that knowingly overstep their bounds and a public that is too ignorant to know any better.

    Scott Peterson and Double Murder

    whoa! - quite a story... it only takes a single mistaken encounter with law enforcement to illustrate the importance of due process, the right to a defense, the right to a public trial, and the genius of the men who created them.

    Tolerance is for others

    robbins won't come to his defense, just like santorum didn't come to lott's defense. robbins doesn't care about speech that's not his own, and for politicians, when someone's stuck in the media crosshairs, best to stay away - to defend thoughtcrime is to commit thoughtcrime. maybe the bush...
