Many people incorrectly define the word 'atheism' to begin with, not understanding the key difference between <i>strong atheism</i> (Belief in no God) and <i>weak atheism</i> (not believing in God). But you're not one of those people, since you already know all that... It's just another day...

I wish I hadn't seen that. There's graphic, and there's <i>that</i>. :eek: :eek: :eek:

Objectivists are total egoists too, but we're all anti-racist! Perhaps the major difference here is that egoists lacking any significant individual accomplishments of their own become the racist variety, seeking unearned collective 'pride' off the achievements of others who happen to share...

<i>"Mr. Poplawski turned to a far-right conspiracy Web site run by Alex Jones, a self-described documentarian with roots going back to the extremist militia movement of the early 1990s."</i> Alex Jones has 'far-right' website? No shit?! Does anyone here have the URL for that? ...because...

Nice to see Federal prisons being used for their proper purpose for a change. <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=2375782> For those who forgot (or never learned) the proper role of prisons in a 'free country' Democracy: They exist to protect society from...

Hiya TS, and thanks! I'm kinda confused about something though: Your first paragraph read like a preface to some type of constructive criticism you have for me ("with all due respect")... but the rest of your post didn't appear to be aimed at me personally at all. Am I missing something? :p

60, give or take a couple years. It once mentioned partaking in activities an as adult back in the early 1970's.

Yup, all of the above (and self-loathing for certain), plus: 8) Textbook Oppositional Defiant Disorder. 9) Lawful-Evil alignment. 10) Jealously towards its superiors (= pretty much everyone). 11) Suffered severe child-abuse, neglect & betrayal- possibly even molestation. 12)...

Because you just make such an excellent whipping-boy... a master of douchebaggery, perfectly wretched in every way- you're practically irreplaceable! :D

A little slow, are <i>we</i>? I told you three years ago why your tricks don't work, and still you fail to come up with any new ones. Is that really all you've got? And as for my theories on brain chemistry: Some details were a bit off (no matter how much you know, there's always...

Does it take an 'independent thinker' to stand against the crowd and declare that it's perfectly ok for a grown man to fuck 8 year old children, and that (fallen U.S. war hero) Pat Tillman was no better a man than (9/11 terrorist) Mohammad Atta? Maybe... but I've never seen your...

Bingo!

Note that Shariah law clearly regards all women as second class citizens: A woman's testimony in court is worth half that of a man. A daughter inherits just half as much property as her brothers. Perhaps worst of all; under Shariah, a rape can only be proven in court if the victim can present...

<i>I called the police at ten after one and they said they will only respond if the alarm has been going for twenty minutes. </i> ---> Just tell 'em someone is out there harmlessly and peacefully violating drug prohibition, and the piggies will be all over it. <i>Here's the deal - if it...

Yeah, right! I got your spotless record right here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zMw1y5M2xE

I didn't mean to sound like one of those 'blame society' whiney liberal types, and as my name implies I do value personal responsibility higher than most. McDonald's should bear no <i>legal</i> responsibility for expanding America's collective waist size (it's none of the government/court...

Because I think there are a great number of people out there with fucked-up 'delayed gratification pleasure circuits'. Just look at the obesity rate in this country: On an intellectual level they may fully realize that looking thin and feeling healthy has far greater value than the fleeting...
