    Farts: The Most Wonderful Proof of God

    That's the most compelling argument for theism I've ever heard. Thank you AE....thank you.

    Who wrote the book of Genesis?

    Yeah, it's interesting how only a "few" think it's a problem for the theory that Moses was the author. Talk about ghost writing.

    Beaten to death with a brick for opposing arranged marriage

    You seem to be changing the argument. You were responding to Smokes statement about the conditions of Muslim culture concerning these offenses. You made the comparison that these offenses were no different in western culture than they were in Muslim culture. You comparison is false for...

    US announces $60 bln arms sale for Saudi Arabia

    Iran threatens all it's less maniacal neighbors(granted they're few but Saudi is one) Most of the weaponry mentioned is excellent tech but very old. The F-15 while perhaps the most effective proven war machine the world has ever known is far surpassed by the F-22. The little bird choppers...

    Human Rights Campaign: Fighting hard for the Democratic Party

    Perhaps. It is my belief that when American leadership accomplishes nothing the American people are generally better off than when they actually meet the goals they set. I understand that this stalled status quo cannot be held at the present time but that's because the last republican...

    Beaten to death with a brick for opposing arranged marriage

    Actually I'm sure it is a huge difference to the victims. In the west the victim is likely at the very least to receive aid and understanding and justice is often pursued and found through the laws and legal system not to mention many other resources and outlets. The victim in Islamic...

    What is the best argument for an atheist?

    Actually the argument from evil is only good if one is arguing against a benevolent god. It really isn't a decent argument against god/gods in general. I find it pretty weak in fact.

    White House White Board

    Just found these vids through a NYT article. They're simple,informative,and easily understood. Wish they'd go viral. They're videos put out by the White House to explain the unemployment situation and why extending the Bush tax cuts are stupid. Each is less than 5 minutes long...

    US announces $60 bln arms sale for Saudi Arabia

    While I disagree with selling an ***-backward country like Saudi any military hardware it seems the state dept got a nice deal on what is essentially a lot of obsolete or near obsolete weaponry and some troop transport. Edit:I have a much bigger problem with them selling stealth weapons to Israel

    Flamboyant LGBT, what of it...

    That's the line. "I'm straight" I haven't often had a gay man disrespect it.

    Beaten to death with a brick for opposing arranged marriage

    Not at all. While these atrocities are committed in western culture they are hidden and punished when perceived. They are most definitely not supported and promoted by our laws and religious leaders. There is a difference, that difference is huge!

    Homosexuality & Religion

    I've been watching you post in these homo rights threads for years. You always back out and off when your hypocritical dogma has been evidenced for what it is. I'd like to think most people would consider for at least a moment why they are consistently unable to defend their beliefs and...

    Homosexuality & Religion

    But Gods law states that you should be hostile to them. Lev 18:22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination. Lev 20:13 If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood...

    Why is pornography bad?

    I must have missed it but unless your answer was "yes" you hold a biased inconsistent view. Google "chefs and alcoholism" and tell me there isn`t a correlation. Does that mean working as a chef is "bad"? You also know very well that correlation does not equate to causation. I regret...

    Why is pornography bad?

    For the third or maybe fourth time The vast majority of people do some type of work that I`m willing to bet they`d rather not have to do for economic reasons. Your argument is not an argument against sex work, it is an argument against almost all work. Do you consider all work "bad"? You...

    Why is pornography bad?

    Certainly. The OP has no need to "avoid" it. The point is moot when one considers "all work" is a means to the end of "economic security". Meaning, "All work" is bad if one holds that point of view. Do you believe all work is bad? Yes. You`re projecting. You`re making the...

    Homosexuality & Religion

    I`m constantly amazed at how the all powerful omniscient creator and ruler of the entire universe is so concerned with where I`m putting my penis. It`s enough to give me a serious sense of overinflated self-importance. :D God is so damned preoccupied with my peepee!

    Why is pornography bad?

    I believe so. Your perception of the argument is correct. I don`t understand your confusion. You state that "sex work" is a direct result of some past sexual trauma. Quite honestly regardless of any past trauma "sex work" is a direct result of economic needs just as any and all work is...
