    Evidence Macroevolution Does Not Exist

    Changes in allele function is not only an observable fact, but is also the basic description of biological evolution. It is the foundation upon which modern biology is based. As children, we would sit in a circle. The first child would whisper a short story in the next child's ear. Then...

    Zionism

    Revisionist history form Israel to America. :facepalm: Tired of dealing with the denial. I think I have made my POV clear to all those not blinded by hatred of the "other".

    Zimmerman and being armed.

    Considering that, according to court testimony, Zimmerman was no physical match for a a 19 year old boy, it seems likely he needed that extra bit of "muscle" to back him up.

    Zionism

    Native Americans did attack colonists and settlers. Justifiably so. The land currently being taken was not bought. "Indian Givers" is a pejorative and an insult to Native Americans. At issue is the current treatment of Arabs living in Israel and occupied lands.

    Zionism

    Funny you should say this. The way America has treated Native Americans over the last few centuries, occupying land, passing laws that remove them from land they occupy. Forcible relocation. Reacting with righteous indignation when they demand equal treatment under the law. The massacre of...

    Zionism

    Amazing how those olive, almond and hawthorn orchards suddenly appeared, along with previously bulldozed buildings, in these tent cities set up anywhere....:facepalm:

    Zionism

    And as I pointed out earlier, Nelson Mandela, a man who has experienced apartheid intimately, acknowledges that Israel is an apartheid state. Rather than encouraging non-Jews to accept Israel as a prospering and shining beacon of democracy, they are creating hate, distrust and feelings of...

    Zionism

    Change of subject? This is exactly one of the issues I have continually brought up. "Excuse me sir, but those Olive trees your grandfather planted, and this land you have and home you were raised in and have raised your own children in, well, I am sorry to tell you that this land has been...

    Zionism

    And you have proven my point. You see all Arabs as 'other'. Just as many Arabs see Jews as 'other'. I am calling on Israel to stop it's current human rights violations, and you are stuck on the past.

    Zionism

    No, we are talking about today. For instance, July 17th, 2013; BEERSHEBA, Israel (Ma'an) -- Israeli forces demolished a Bedouin village in southern Israel for the 53rd time on Tuesday, as thousands protested a day earlier over plans to forcibly displace Bedouins in the Negev. "It is the...

    Zionism

    Citizens, perhaps not. Arabs living in occupied lands. Constantly. Military operations, in particular in Gaza, remain a threat to the life, liberty and security of the civilian population. During the first four years of the second intifada, demolitions led to the displacement of more than...

    Zionism

    Like forced relocation, uncompensated and unjustified land seizure and illegal settlements.:facepalm: Because they are not the only residents of the land.

    Are works necessary for salvation in Islam?

    A simple question arising from another thread. Are works necessary for salvation in Islam, or do works follow salvation as a willingness to do as Allah has commanded as a result of belief in Allah and the Qur'an? Thank you advance for your answers.

    Zimmerman and being armed.

    The question is, are you more likely to do so if armed?

    Zimmerman and being armed.

    Back to my experiences in a particular country/western bar in Arkansas. When we as bartenders and bouncers saw a man determinedly leave a confrontation to head to his vehicle, we kept a watchful eye on the door for his return. The more confident he looked coming back, the higher the likelihood...

    Zimmerman and being armed.

    Does it matter? And irrelevant to the question posed in the OP.

    Zionism

    It disturbs me that in a thread about Zionism, you complain that I did not mention other countries and organizations that also have unjust practices and laws. No, I do not support the PLO. And I have mentioned the atrocities and inhumane policies of Hamas and the Palestinian Authority. But...

    Is the US a Christian nation?

    Well, I am not going to argue time spent in study.;) However, my understanding from Muslims I know is that salvation comes from belief and love in Allah. And that submission, or works, is a result of that belief and love, not a requirement for salvation. Much like the works of the Christian...

    Zimmerman and being armed.

    In my experience, particularly when working in bars and clubs, the presence or easy availability of a weapon emboldens many to do what they may not do unarmed.
