    Is the Republican Party suffering a complete moral collapse?

    That's a perfect summation of the highschool clique mentality. It also plays nicely into team think. Why wouldn't you want to be certain of the vote before you certify it (if the vote is "what the voters think")? What point you are trying to make? Churches are not infallible. Some people...

    Morals

    I think mores are the essential or characteristic customs and conventions of a community (by definition). I'm trying to understand how your view of morality differs from a lack of morality. In your system, morality is irrational and justified by whim at an individual level.

    Pence says "White House doesn’t report to the Congress.”

    Hardly the same stage at all, unless you admit that the Jan 6 committee was formed to go after Trump from the very beginning. Formally, that was not the reason for the Jan 6 committee. Moreover, the subpeona for Pence - not Trump. It doesn't seem like the commitee is going to challenge...

    Trump Wants to Terminate Articles of the Constitution

    Trump is wrong.

    Atheists vs. Theists -- Why Debate is Impossible

    :confused: I thought you weren't talking about "ordinary folks", which I interpreted to mean: anybody could say anything about anything. Rather I thought you were talking about "theologians and philosophers", which I interpreted to mean: people serious about debate. You claim that, in a debate...

    Is the Republican Party suffering a complete moral collapse?

    Ah, politicians are scum? I'm not sure how important Kanye and Nick's visit should be - it's importance seemed to be on the level of highschool drama. Election certification on the other hand seems more important. And the certification battle appears to indicate that the Republican Party does...

    Penalty asked for doctor who spoke of 10-year-old's abortion

    You don't need to say a person's name in order to identify him. The AG asserts that the girl was identified from the information the doctor gave to the reporter. The doctor's defense appears to be to claim that the information the doctor revealed was already public knowledge (and not that the...

    Pence says "White House doesn’t report to the Congress.”

    Is it you assertaion that the Jan 6 committee is engaging in a criminal prosecution (as opposed to an investigation)?

    Morals

    If morality is just how you happen to feel at any moment in time, then what distinguishes morality from whim? Or are you saying that morality and whim are synonymous? Also, perhaps you can explain in your example why you say that feeling comfortable was not rational. Are you saying that...

    "The Right is way worse than the Left!!!"

    Team think is what makes Republicans and Demoncrats look the same. If your team gains power you are happy and if your team loses power you are distressed. The purpose of all fund-raising is to elect your team. It doesn't matter what the issue is... as long as people will give money for that...

    Atheists vs. Theists -- Why Debate is Impossible

    :confused: For what reason is debate between theists and atheists "impossible"? And is your claim specifically about the debate of god or no god? Or, are you making a claim about theists and atheists debating on any question?

    Is the Republican Party suffering a complete moral collapse?

    Let me see if I understand your reasoning... Premise 1. Some Republicans (including Trump himself, btw) expressed negative feelings about the the presence of Nick Fuentes and Kanye West at his dinner. Premise 2. Not all Arizona counties certified the vote. Conclusion 1: Republicans don't care...

    Should Twitter reveal old Twitter's role in spreading disinformation about the Hunter Biden laptop?

    Yes, Trump was right about fake news and we know that Twitter banned political voices and censored information. Perhaps we will find out how deep the rabbit hole goes. Consequences should probably include government officials removed from office, Twitter employees removed from Twitter, and...

    Pence says "White House doesn’t report to the Congress.”

    Separation of Powers is the Supreme Court's basis for Executive Priviledge. Executive Priviledge is not in the Constitution. Separation of Powers is in the Constitution. The Court constructed Executive Priviledge on the basis of Separation of Powers. Pence is not currently in office, but no...

    Penalty asked for doctor who spoke of 10-year-old's abortion

    Let me see if I understand this... 1. A 10-year old was raped. 2. She went to a doctor and received an abortion. 3. That doctor then went and made her operation public... (presumably without consent). 4. The AG asked the Medical Licensing Board to discipline the doctor for violating the...

    Morals

    This sounds a bit like ends justifies the means. A goal is an end. Achieving that end is "good". Therefore anything done to achieve that end is good, whereas something done to impede that end is "bad". If, for example, a goal is to make a million dollars, and you lie, cheat, and steal to...

    Pence says "White House doesn’t report to the Congress.”

    I'm not saying I agree with assertions of Executive Priviledge. I'm just informing you of what Executive Priviledge is. To learn more about Executive Priviledge, you can start here: Executive privilege Also consider this: ArtII.S3.4.1 Overview of Executive Privilege Here is United States vs...

    Biden claims he's very pro union from the podium, but wants to force a deal to prevent rail strike.

    Sure, Biden sometimes says he is "pro-Union", but no one should actually believe him when he says that.

    What makes a Christian?

    Anyone can call himself a Christian. The question is: To what does a person refer? A person may refer to cultural upbringing. A person may refer to attendance at Church. A person may refer to belief in Christ. A person may refer to spiritual knowledge. There are many ways to use the word...

    Pence says "White House doesn’t report to the Congress.”

    Executive Priviledge protects executive communication - it is not simply Presidents or Vice Presidents. That's why. Executive Priviledge protects executive communications regardless of who is subpeonaed or when the subpeona is received. A subpeona is a written order to give testimony on a...
