catholic church is what it says, not what orthodox says
i was busy and apologize for not finishing that debate. hopefully i will this time. here is a good response to start with: I will answer your objections. But first, I submit to you a challenge. If the CC is not true,,, then surely it has contradicted itself in its official teaching. I have not found this to be the case. (I have questions regarding Extra… Nulla, "outside the catholic church" etc) If the following stuff is debatable, I'd think something could be found as per that challenge. I...
obama's got enough experience
figured this should be addressed in its own thread. since it's important. onea those "obama's a a nazi, the antichrist, a muslim in kahoots with bin laden" things that need addressed. well, the argument about experience has some merit more than that, but definitely not as much as most people think. 1. Theodore Roosevelt (42) 2. John F. Kennedy (43) 3. Bill Clinton (46) 4. Ulysses S. Grant (46) 5. Grover Cleveland (47) 6. Franklin Pierce (48) 7. James A. Garfield (49) 8. James K. Polk...
obama... just as much if not more merit, against the surge and for troops in afghanistan
the position is being compared to mccain's. there was an addition in 20000 troops to iraq, to make it 1.8 or so instead of 1.6 hundred thousand troops. the iraqi government was already, before the surge, coalescing its own troops. 20,000 troops is negligible given the overall number already there, and the force the iraqis were forming and had. that the generals in iraq wants more troops, only shows they want to win there, and hte better way to win is to have more troops. but the...

reagan was a bad president
so i'm questioning the conventional wisdom that regean was such a great president. the national debt went up substantially, starting with him, exponentially. now, we have the debt going up two million dollars a minute, and the everyone paying a fifth of their taxes to interest only, nothing really, and the average person is born with 30k in debt. he wanted to spend less, but whatever the case, his tax cuts costed us this, given that spending less wasn't going to happen. it's a fundamental...
the orthodox church is not the true church
the orthodox church is not the true church there is more to the catholic church that you realize i want your insights on this matter...
this is the best conservative estimate of how many planets have complex life like ours: 1429 planets
how many stars are there? 70,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. 70 sextillion is 7 followed by twenty-two zeroes what's the probability of life forming? one in seven billion so... if you assume that it's just as likely that something as complex as a human would form, as it is for life to form.... using basic probability... you take 7 billion times 7 billion. 49 and how many zeros? (to get the zeros we simply count them, nine zeros in a billion, so 18 zeros billion in the billion times th...

the rights of infants in the womb should sometimes trump the rights of the mother
at least later in the pregnancy... sometiems infant's rights should trump. a mother assumed the risk of pregnancy, and then, she assumed the risk of carrying the child for many months. an argument could be made that earlier in the pregnancy she forfeits her right to not be pregnant by assuming that risk. much like... if you cause an accident, and the victim's body is somehow temporarily attachedk to your body, hypothetically speaking... a reasonable person would say the tortfeasor must at le...
macroevolution more likely than not is true
given the transitional evidence, which ironically is usually what is attacked by antievolutionists, evolution more likely than not is true. links for things on traisitional fossils look for the chromosomal stuff, and chapters six and five in the PBS link below, read or watch the video. http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/faq-transitional/part2a.html http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/d2700.html http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/ http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/id/program.html#...
