Nope. _I_ don't claim they are Christian, _THEY_ claim they are Christian. I'm not going to sit here in judgement and say they're not Christian, simply because they've sinned in a way that Christ would not have sinned, because there are very, very few ways that Christ would sin. And yet I did...

You think when a scant handful of Muslim organizations speak, the US media is there at the ready to report on it all? The funny thing is, those groups make their denunciations, but the media doesn't carry it. So how, exactly, do they become loud and clear? That may be one of the silliest, and...

Well, for one, like when people who call themselves "Christian" go onto Web forums and claim that other people who claim to be "Christian" are not Christian at all, and criticize the people who call those who claim to be "Christian," Christian. And yet these same Christian will claim that all...

Soon as I read "banned words" my Spidey Sense told me something wasn't right. The words haven't been banned. The words are on the university's annual New Year's Eve list of words that they are recommending to be banished, or removed, from the Queen's English for "Misuse, Overuse and General...

Much to Bill O'Reilly's and the other Fox News talking head's chagrin, the Muslim World isn't a monolithic entity. They don't all take the same marching orders from a single leader. Muslims have a wide ranging set of attitudes towards terrorism and Islamic extremists, from full-on support to...

"Cheltenham Veterans Cemetery, Maryland today, time now. We are laying my grandfather to rest, a Korea/Vietnam veteran, I walk over to see his plot prior to the service, and this is what I see. A backhoe that literally went through the graves, and over some graves to dig up the hole on his...

Starting tomorrow, students in California must be allowed to play school sports and use school bathrooms "consistent with their gender identity," regardless of their birth identity. In Illinois, anyone under 18 cannot use a tanning bed without a note from their doctor (UV rays are helpful in...

Cuba exchanged all incandescent light bulbs for CFLs, and banned the sale and import of them in 2005, probably because they got most of their light bulbs from Venezuela and Brazil, which banned incandescents the same year. In China, 100 Watts and higher have been banned since 2012, and as of...

Rough service, and three-way bulbs will still be made. I do like the Cree LED bulbs a lot. I have these in the bedroom lamp and in the living room. Cree's $13 LED light bulb is the best yet, looks and feels incandescent (hands-on) | The Verge And a video comparison of the Cree and the GE LEDs.

Study: Deployments not reason for increase in military suicides - Stripes Study: Mental illness, not combat, causes soldier suicides - CNN.com The record number of military suicides seen in recent years may not be directly due to extended deployments or combat experience, according to a new...

That's not speaking to the subject of carcinogens, it's speaking to the subject of lung cancer. And, it only confirms exactly what I said above, so I'm not sure what point you're trying to make. Is it that pot is safe? If it's that pot doesn't cause lung cancer, then it's a redundancy of a point...

I'm officially way past bored out of my mind. My Last Available is showing LA:168 but it's actually 232, and after my dry run last Thursday the 26th my Last Load is showing LL:0. And not a peep since the dry run.

You're not listening. Every time there is a Muslim "incident" the Muslim communities here denounce it. Unlike the Catholics and some other religious groups, Muslims have no real hierarchy here, so there is no one to speak for them. Immediately after the Boston bombings, "After the terrible and...

The people who don't believe in evolution are the people who don't know anything about evolution. The scientists who don't believe in evolution aren't scientists and they wouldn't recognize evidence if it leaped out of the water and slapped them in the face. The biggest problem is the use of...

Yep Blasphemy laws around the world

It's a plant. It's...a...plant! Read the article linked in the OP and replace the words "marijuana" and "pot" with "corn" or "maize" and you can get a sense of just how little sanity there is in all this. It's a big moment: Colorado will become the first state in the nation to open...

I thought mu first paragraph explained pretty clearly what set me off. Like Dave said, your post was misleading. And then you capped off your post with an utter falsehood. Granted, at the time you typed it you probably really and truly believed that it's the additives in cigarettes that people...
