I was going to ask if you were OK with religion getting too involved with government, but I forgot something: You'll never provide a straight answer to that question. I love this kind of debate technique. Make a statement as if it were fact, then question the answer to a baseless question assuming that fact. Doug is very good at it, but when you pin him down, it's just all narcissistic strut. Ever notice that when he gets pinned into a corner, he tries to shift the discussion in a new direction? Or he'll turn the discussion into a snark fest? I used to think Doug had a solid streak of intellectual curiosity in him - now I know better - he's just another prejudiced self-hating social misfit who can't get along with anybody. And yet, the reality is that you will never discuss religion mingling too much with government. You hauled out the "we have a Christian heritage" blather instead, a target that's easier to shoot than the side of a barn. |

"Moreover, it's wrong to ask believers to leave their religion at the door before entering the public square. Abraham Lincoln, William Jennings Bryan, Martin Luther King Jr. - indeed, the majority of great reformers in American history - were not only motivated by faith, they also used religious language to argue for their cause. To say men and women should not inject their "personal morality" into policy debates is a practical absurdity; our law is by definition a codification of morality." Barak Obama, USA Today, 7/10/2006 Let's debate this: Without the ten commandments, absolutely nobody would know that murder is wrong. Nobody. No exceptions. Period. I'm sorry Doug - I'm tired of you and your bull****. Go play fake intellectual games with somebody else. I'm out. This is far from being bull****. This is at the heart of your "we have a Christian heritage" thing. That usually leads to a discussion of how many of our laws are based on religious principals, so I shot down that idea for you. Here's the heart of the issue: I think normally adjusted humans NATURALLY know certain things are wrong, and don't need commandments or laws to help them. So much for religious heritage. I think we'd have most of our laws even if religion never existed. |

No Jeff Gordon movie. Seagal was good, before he decided he could write and direct movies. Van Damme, movies. Just SUX. Jackie Chan is a good comedian. And I like good comedians. Hey, Van Damme always had a naked butt scene and the girls in the house must have found it titillating. IMO, just about any episode of the "A-Team" had more good stuff than a Norris movie. Peppard saying "I love it when a plan comes together" displayed more acting talent than the entire cast of a Norris movie saying all their lines. But maybe I wasn't paying close attention. --Vic Did not say Chuck was an actor. Just said it had great action scenes. Q: What's behind Chuck Norris' beard? A: Another fist. |

You stand by and say little or nothing to Krause for the most vile **** on the internet, and then jump on Reggie for this obvious joke? Some jokes are funny - some are not. This does not reach the level of Joke in any sense of the word. I do not find pedofilphila funny. What ever else Harry has done, might or will do does not equal basically being called a pedophile. For what it is worth, I did find Harry's comment about keeping a photo of a young girl in his wallet, very weird. I mean very weird. While I don't care if you hold me to a higher standard than Harry (I think I should be held to a higher standard), Harry has called numerous people pedophiles and made numerous references to their preference towards bestiality. Harry made these comments often without any comment from you or any of the other regulars. Don has also made numerous comments about people being pedophiles when he is puppy dogging Harry's comments. So while I agree with you I should be held to a higher standard than Harry, JohnH was making a valid point that many people overlook Harry's daily comments that are equal or go beyond anything said by others. |

If I wanted to spend the time, I could find numerous comments made by YOU about numerous people liking little boys, just because Harry said it. You are so busy puppy dogging Harry, you can't even remember what you said. |

When krause has accused posters of incest, bestiality, etc., or voiced a wish that they were dead, why was that "not cool"? Sad part is, krause was not joking. -- Charlie |
