The heaven and hell in both examples and in all examples will be the subjective interpretation of the person experiencing the event. Theoretically, th...
What difference does location make when determining if you're receiving eternal pleasure or pain? If you're having an orgy in your bed on Monday and b...
This statement is completely wrong. The ex nihlio theories are central to Judaism and most forms of Christianity (Mormonism excepted). https://en.wiki...
This might be specific and not general. All other examples of specific cases had prepositional phrases except this one. Unless you assert "to be good"...
This all feels like pragmatics. Sure, it's better to be able to trust, just so I can know what to expect. I trust the Klansman to be a racist, and in ...
You use "trust" here to mean you accept its veracity, except with your last example where you use it to mean you expect certain results. You have ther...
I think we should have a biological male, biological female, trans male, trans female, asexual, fluid sexual, homosexual man, heterosexual female, hom...
For the record, my family has been consuming a record number of eggs during this pandemic. I think eggs are something everyone knows how to cook. As l...
When were these good old days? The days of the monarch or the dictator, or does that go back too far? At least now our leaders feel like they have to ...
I didn't suggest we needed to increase tax revenues, so I've not advocated for any increases, either on the rich or the middle class. Biden wanting to...
I boycott all North Korean goods. Sure, it's difficult around Christmas when looking for that perfect gift, but it's the least I can do to de-fund the...
I know very little of your swampy little outpost, but am I correct in stating that property in the Netherlands is fairly expensive and the only crop y...
Yes, but the purpose of your OP couldn't have been to convince us of the virtue of honesty because I would think that's largely uncontested. We all un...
Tell me all the things your kids are going to need to sustain themselves so that I can teach my kids to sell it to them. I'm just trying to identify e...
I actually went to the Biden site where he lists out his positions. If I had to pick what I didn't particularly like, it would relate to raising taxes...
I read the article you sent, and it does clearly delineate three strategies to the coronavirus, which really can be described as varying levels of qua...
No complicated math here, but with 24 votes so far, with 4% voting for Trump, that means only one Trump voter. :chin: My issue with the Baden accusati...

Sure, so let's feed popcorn to every infected person because we don't know what it'll do, and we might as well err on the side of caution. Best case, ...
No it's not. The primary reason we shut down the economy was to slow the spread of the disease so that our healthcare system wouldn't be overwhelmed b...
Let's say 1m will have severe cases (however we define that) on Date X if we don't quarantine at all. Let's then say we have 500k hospital beds. Assum...
Well, sure, total trust has not been lost. But do I trust the dentists like I once did, and do I just take my medicine as prescribed? I probably do a ...
Oh, please, I'm not a conspiracy theorist. You're just a de-legitimizer of all who don't speak the gospel (backatcha). I've simply questioned the exte...
There's honesty and then there's truth. We only know if someone is honest if we are able to otherwise find the truth. And if we can find the truth our...
A couple of thoughts: First, the distrust of government is obviously not new. The question for liberal democracies (of which I include the US) is how ...
The only way you can sense you're being watched is thorough your senses, of which there are 5. So, I feel I'm being watched when I see someone watchin...
If someone is knocking on death's door, I think you should throw everything in the hospital closet at the patient and you should wave all sorts of bra...
Yeah, and you don't know why they're dying. You're just hypothesizing one way (it's because they were really sick and about to die anyway), and I'm hy...
We know people are dying on ventilators at alarming rates. You can say it's because they were really sick and going to die anyway, or you can say the ...
President Fdrake issues a decree that we quarantine the world so that the spread of covid will not exceed the number of ventilators based upon no evid...
If they killed people, we'd stop using them. You're making the Trump argument by the way. Let's try this medication, it seems like it works from what ...
Well of course. Use respirators where they ought be used, but maybe not for covid. If they don't work for those patients and they possibly hasten thei...
If you're going to concede the point that medicine isn't scientifically based, but that it's just based upon anecdotal cases and general feel, then we...
Really? Because it's the existing protocol, it must be based upon good science? It's just a tautology? Maybe show me the study you're referencing inst...
If you're going to appeal to authority, you're going to have to cite to the authority, which are the actual studies. Simply suggesting that they must ...
