Are you seriously trying to compare Jesus with Mohammed? Or, are you just trying to start trouble here. Bee well, one certainly could. Only one claimed actual divinity, the other considered himself one of a long line of prophets. I am not terribly religious, so don't really buy the claims of either...

Took me a second to get the "Admiral" crack. :o I'm not saying being here longer gives you a right to be a dick to people, but at least get to know people before you sling your stuff around. Me and Ferno could bicker all day, cuz it's happened for at least 10 years, and I'll still like th...

I'm glad you were honest enough to let them know 'for the most part', Cuda.

You gotta take the bad with the good, dude, people may be idiots but they are still our countrymen. would you also agree that perhaps a great deal of our nation's issues are a result of a society that creates more and more idiots?(see my comment, elsewhere in the Sharia thread, about the real issue...

All drugs are dumb, but I can't talk any personal trash, as I was wrapped up in them for a while myself. Sure wish I never did them, though. All they do is hurt people. by and large, I'd agree. I really don't see where moderate use, be it of, say, alcohol or marijuana, does anyone any harm at all. ...

No, screw you dude, you come on here for a couple days and you're already throwing around smarmy insults at people. I'm not undereducated at all, I could very well regurgitate all the things I have been taught but I think for myself and take everything with a grain of salt. Go away. simmer down, Ad...

decent writeup on evolution. Wrong in several conclusions, but a functional definition of micro v. macro. The key issue I have is for anyone to suggest that we have no proof of macro-evolution. It can clearly be demonstrated in unicellular organisms(down to change to a new species), and many functio...

Your mainstream media polls can never be trusted, from Faux to msnbc. Most people are idiots, anyway. well, some folks go out of their way to demonstrate that last part, huh? For the record, I used to be a Faux News fanatic, but even I, probably the most right-wing person on this board, even saw th...

Bet, you did read the words, "tongue-in-cheek" at the bottom of my post, right?

What people do and blame their behavior on is their deal. I would condemn any "Christians" that resorted to violent acts and said the Bible insinuated that they should do so. Sure, there is a lot of violence and hate in the OT, but thats just how the times were. It's commonly believed to ...

But nobody's ever been there. so what? Is human knowledge supposed to be limited to our physical presence. By that logic, the moon didn't exist until the late 1960's, as far as we knew, right? Like I said, there are methods of collection, but we don't even know if it's Jupiter gas or some crazy ali...

The Old Testament was written by a whole ton of people and then put together later. true, the way I see it, but some will attest that 'God' wrote it. My point, although Bee seems not to accept it, is that there are plenty of violent threats and exhortations in the OT, and those have been used, hist...

IMO, There are many important qualities in a President that Obama doesn't exibit such as spelling, no doubt. such as making decisions based on his gut. I'd also like to se a much more transparent administration from him, as well as a mindset that truly represented the people. decisions based upon '...

My common sense says that "Evolution" is a religon ok, I've read this enough times.......sorry, but evolution is a proven fact. It occurs, and does so in every single species which has been observed and measured. To suppose that it would not, or did not occur within the hominids is ludicr...

I have always wondered WHY people seek ways to get high in the first place. ever wondered why it has been a part of human culture for, like, forever? I have never once in my life wanted to be \"out of it\" or \"high\" for 'fun.' where is your sense of adventure? Seriously, anyon...

I wonder how their running away will resonate with voters in 2012? So the Democrats, who have no problem sending union SEIU thugs out to beat up on black tea party protesters , when faced with having to dirty their hands by actually voting on something distasteful, run away and hide. Wisc. Gov. sho...

Please explain how you came to this conclusion.

I'm guessing that alcohol played a role somewhere......

it has to do with leadership and being a leader. something this President has been lacking. Reagan had those qualities. Obama does not. he has different qualities, to be sure, but leadership takes many forms. I, for one, felt that Reagan was less a leader and more a cheerleader. Obama tends to quie...

just like that fellow that wrote the Old Testament, huh?

I could direct you to a Fly Fishing usenet site, where he went, apparently to attack me. Unfortunately, he unleashed his misspelled stupidity on a total stranger, and made an ass of himself(again). It was sort of funny, though.

somehow I cant see Obama going on National TV and telling ANY federal Union get back to work or your fired. and then when they tried to call his bluff. following through on the threat. I can't see Obama going on nation TV and telling Mr. Gorbachev TEAR DOWN THIS WALL!! and those two examples accomp...

I wouldn't call Obama a communist. He's not, and the accusations about him being fundamentally socialist don't fit, either. However, I also wouldn't call Obama a conservative, or make a strong comparison to Reagan. Null, I only see resemblance in terms of raw spending and corporatism; what makes yo...

personally, I chose to do so after a particularly nasty sunburn. Your mileage may vary.

thanks, Cuda.....now, you might want to read up in that Sharia thread about how to cope with the threat of public stoning once the conservatives here realize what you've unleashed.

This thread is priceless. I'll overlook the chest beating and rants about facing stone throwing mobs with a handgun and cut to the real issue(or, at least, I THINK it was what you all started discussing): Sharia law in the US. To think, for one moment, that such an outcome is a possibility or a thre...
