    Building Bridges to the Unity of Humanity

    That's a non-starter: a disarmed populace fundamentally unable to defend itself is untenable from a basic human rights perspective: it being well-established that individuals have the right to self-defense. As for mass destruction: it's a Pandora's box problem. You can't put the problem back in...

    Why isnt Harris president right now? Biden is completely cooked in the brain. We have no real president.

    Replacing Biden can only hurt her chances of winning election. She won't govern differently than Biden and she would have less time to campaign. On top of that, Biden still has strong supporters that she will alienate. It's a lose lose lose for her. I understand that not replacing Biden...

    Trump is losing the debate acting like a raving lunatic

    Bizarre obsession? You mean watching and listening to the news where a citizen of Springfield spoke about the immigration problem in Springfield? Nah, that's called paying attention to events. Kamala's laughter is called, denial, or maybe she didn't even bother paying attention to events. They...

    Teleological Argument (Aquinas)

    If the intellect is inherent, then wouldn't that mean that the supposition that "various objects lack intelligence" is false? And that really they do have intelligence. If it were something else beside the various objects that set their behavior, then by definition that something else would be...

    World War Three

    "allowing them to fight on home turf" wow, did the U.S. really have the power to decide that Ukraine was not going to fight at all, not even on their home turf? In your view, is Ukraine a full on sock puppet of the Biden administration? But you don't deny that the F16s were delayed until this...

    Trump is safe following shooting at Florida golf course; suspect detained

    Apparently, Trump was willing to take the measure of leaving office after 2020. That you are "playful" (as opposed to serious) about Trump faking assassination attempts against himself is noted. Considering that every bullet fired at Trump's rally will be accounted for and investigated...

    Swift endorsing Harris...

    Hmm. Would people who could care less about Taylor Swift really respond that they are less likely to vote for Kamala because Taylor Swift endorsed Kamala? I wouldn't think so, although you seem to be suggesting that that's the case. 20% > 8% Are there really more than twice as many people who...

    Trump is losing the debate acting like a raving lunatic

    Looks like Trump's comment about eating pets is aging well as more stuff comes out each day about the problems in Springfield, including such things as video of cats on the grill. Kamala's reaction of disbelief and laughter demonstrates that she is out of touch. The fact check from the...

    Trump is safe following shooting at Florida golf course; suspect detained

    Your comments suggest that there is something more about Trump that if I knew it, it would be apparent to me that the assassins are missing Trump on purpose so as to improve his chances of winning the election. You are free to share such knowledge as you think would give rationality to the...

    Teleological Argument (Aquinas)

    It's a solid argument, but what does Aristotle really mean by "intelligence" as you put it. If I were to make a top and set the top to spinning on a desk. Then the role of my intelligence in this end was that I had conceived the end before the end was (possibly) achieved. Moreover, I would...

    Swift endorsing Harris...

    I did not expect that.

    Dick Cheney will vote for Kamala Harris!

    We can agree that the effect is marginal.

    Trump is safe following shooting at Florida golf course; suspect detained

    This hatred for Trump is irrational. And it could not be more evident then when people begin to fantasize that shooters are deliberately missing Trump in order to make him look better.

    Russia threatens to turn Kyiv into a "giant melted spot"

    Not saying Putin wouldn't do it, but am saying that even melting Kyiv cannot win Putin this war. It is a doomed prospect from Day 1 that can only end badly for Russia. He may be able to keep the Russian economy stable, and he may have more Russians that he can send to the front to die than the...

    World War Three

    I don't think Putin can ever win, meaning Ukraine cannot reasonably be conquered and ruled. It's a fool's errand. But that doesn't mean he can't cause immense harm along the way. And it doesn't mean that the U.S. is doing all it should do under this really quite terrible Biden administration...

    Swift endorsing Harris...

    I think it was a timely endorsement from Taylor Swift that will help Kamala's campaign. Like all of these endorsements, the benefits will be at the margins, same with the Kid Rock endorsement.

    Dick Cheney will vote for Kamala Harris!

    "Border Czar" comes from the media, not Biden. I'm talking about power that Biden gave to Kamala and not names bestowed upon her by the media or by you. But regardless of your chicanery, you do admit that Biden gave her responsibilites with regard to the border. And it is evident that she...

    Dick Cheney will vote for Kamala Harris!

    Ah, okay, yeah, I'm not sure a VP has done that before. You may not agree that the Bush-Cheney administration was dark times. But I do think that his endorsement of Kamala will hurt more than it helps.

    Dick Cheney will vote for Kamala Harris!

    I don't think Republican endorsements of Kamala are generally harmful to her. When you hear that more than 200 Republicans endorsed her, it's helpful to her campaign. But the Dick Cheney endorsement specifically - that's problematic. She was a too enthusiatic about receiving that endorsement...

    Teleological Argument (Aquinas)

    It's a tight argument. Perhaps there's someway to dig into: What is intelligence? Part of the idea seems to be that intelligence sets things in an ordered way, but intelligence is also capable of scrambling things. For example, if I were to take a sentence and encrypt it, the point of the...
