  1. I'm sorry Mammon, what did you say? I have you on ignore.
  2. He's a "Christian Objectivist" Zip. You must have missed that yesterday because his thread discussing it was deleted by the mods.
  3. And you wonder why people on this forum keep putting you on ignore?
  4. Also be sure to tell them you had never listened to the show before today
  5. it just HAD to be a potato, didn't it? Now the civil wars with Ireland are gonna start all up again because they took it as a personal insult.
  6. By what standard do you measure him? By what standard does he have or not have potential? Potential to do what?
  7. KevinDW78

    Ability

    Reminds me of that YouTube Video of the infant "wrestling" with the king cobra in India.
  8. My bidet needs a bailout. Give me money!
  9. Just read this in a current new item. Maybe some "hope"? (pun intended)
  10. But based on what standard in each case?
  11. Sure enough, Dick Morris wrote another op-ed peiece today on Hillary as Sec. of State lol http://www.dickmorris.com/blog/2008/11/14/...-is-he-kidding/
  12. You can listen live online at http://www.radioamerica.org/
  13. Now it's reported that he is considering Hillary as Secretary of State. "change" eh? uh.... yeah. http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/11/13/of...ecretary-state/
  14. What's your point? Has anyone here said they would do such a thing? No. You're so contorted in floating abstractions that you aren't even making logical sense anymore. Just because you remove your label of "moral" and "immoral" doesn't necessarily follow that everyone starts behaving like discompassionate sadists. You're using a false dichotomy. I don't know anyone on this forum who would behave in the way you suggest. YOUR problem is that you can't fathom people behaving KINDLY simply via their own rationality. You are hellbent on placing your labels of "moral" and "immoral" all over your floating abstractions. Reminds me of those classic 1940s images of luggage with stickers from every conceivable country slapped on them.
  15. Uh.... "Anyways"? Excuse me? Mind backing your argument up for once? I know that's asking a lot from you.
  16. ...Yeah... Utahans aren't the most rational of people (I should know) lol.
  17. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,450759,00.html Who'd a thunk! I won't hold my breath that the mentality will carry over into other industries though.
  18. oh how funny. I was just reading the chapter in ITOE last night that explains why your arguments aren't valid.
  19. "fact" and "psychology" used together is for to laugh
  20. Homosexuals (in the state of Utah) are denied the right to adopt children. (or does that not qualify as an "individual right" to you) How about the fact that in many states, Sodomy is still on the books? Is sex between consenting adults not an individual right? How about that in the state of Utah, it is illegal (yes an arrestable offense) to sell gay pornography? Is it not a violation of an individual right to conduct lassaiz-faire business between consenting parties? Do I need to go on or can we drop the smug, arrogant, attitude?
  21. 100% wrong. Private companies have to file annual EEO Reports with the government to prove that they are hiring minorities. Check for facts before making your assertions.
  22. Correct. Or to be more specific, the liklihood is so small that even if such a series of unfathomable, unfortunate events were to occur, that I could hardly care that the last event was to end up dead. There IS such a thing as responsible people out there, ya know. Not all of us slave away for "the man", subject to dismissal at his whims because he caught us goofing off on the assembly line. Some of us ARE "the man". But there are complete strangers to you dying every day! Oops - another one just died in Bangladesh... and another in Mozambique! Oops there goes one now in Topeka! What did you do to save THEM? Why were you wasting your time on this forum when you could have been doing *something* that could have saved their lives! Quick! Go! Your superhero abilities are needed!
