    What is Treason?

    Unpopular opinion here, but treason is as real a thing as blasphemy...

    Conservative only. It's a great time to be in America now

    I'm a fiscally conservative libertarian progressive who feels that neither party represents me at all. Do you mind if I chime in?

    world oil reserves gone in 19 years

    That's a whole different conversation, but yes. I agree. If we can't even accept that this process causes tremors, and bring some science and oversight to it, then how can we really trust that the process of porous liquid extraction from deep below our aquifers won't eventually contaminate...

    What is a real God?

    I would accept a demigod (a human-like being with "powers" above and beyond the capabilities of human possibility) as a god. I just need to see anything at all, in the real world, that could validate my need to hold out hope for such an entity to exist. A god will have abilities above what we...

    world oil reserves gone in 19 years

    Yeah, the image thing is pretty annoying. And the map I presented focused solely on Oklahoma. There's plenty of information out there about Texas, Kansas, etal. Texas has seen a 6-fold increase in quakes, and they're happening in areas where the faults themselves haven't been geologically...

    Is Bible literal young earth Christian fundamentalism turning people away from God?

    Fine. How about just simple basic stuff? Do you believe that Young Earth Creationism is a legitimate idea? Do you believe that it helps or hinders the faith?

    world oil reserves gone in 19 years

    First of all, the link says no such thing. The introduction is based on the story of Crescent High School's gymnasium wall cracking and damage being caused to adjacent classrooms... It's little more than a long-winded explanation of the process used to effectively look at school sites in...

    Is Bible literal young earth Christian fundamentalism turning people away from God?

    You started a thread and I participated in answering the questions that you asked. Isn't that how conversations work? The same thing that makes you think he/she/it doesn't. Life follows a set of pretty obvious parameters. You can give an external entity qualities beyond those parameters, but...

    world oil reserves gone in 19 years

    I read. Thanks. I'm not concerned with the few thousand microquakes, but with the couple thousand larger ones. They are caused, admittedly by you in a previous post but reluctantly by certain former Attorney Generals/EPA directors and the companies that are profiting from them, by activities...

    world oil reserves gone in 19 years

    They're only meaningless to those who find them inconvenient. I don't know if photos are still broken or not, so here's a link to a map of fracking sites, and their injection quantities, in Oklahoma. http://maps.fractracker.org/3.13/?appid=8c62863a9d43488db4f426b83a181574 Here's a map of...

    Is Bible literal young earth Christian fundamentalism turning people away from God?

    Yes. The focus isn't on some spooky idea about the authority of God but rather on how one comes to a conclusion in the first place... My question isn't facetious. If you I told you that the only way you could truly understand something was to first admit that it exists, and then understand it...

    You mean like 2,700+ earthquakes in Oklahoma since 2010, when before 2009 they averaged 1-2 per year?

    Is Bible literal young earth Christian fundamentalism turning people away from God?

    You asked a question in an open forum that I am both educated in and happen to have an opinion about. Would you care to actually discuss the topic of your thread, or do you prefer detraction?

    world oil reserves gone in 19 years

    I estimated 43 years back in 2007. The numbers must keep changing.

    world oil reserves gone in 19 years

    There's a reason that sinkholes and earthquakes are occurring in places where they shouldn't be occurring, and in ridiculous quantities. We're swiss-cheesing the ground beneath our feet, and some people are wryly smug about it. What a bunch of weirdos.

    Is Bible literal young earth Christian fundamentalism turning people away from God?

    Did you actually read what I wrote? I have no expectations of nonexistent things.

    No one actually clicks on links, do they?

    Is Bible literal young earth Christian fundamentalism turning people away from God?

    I believe so. Yes. Aside from being basically intellectually bankrupt, YECs have to backload their faith in God by first having faith in Scripture, then having faith in their interpretation of Scripture, followed by a rejection of any ideas not conducive to those first two things... It's faith...
