Isn't basic Christian doctrine that Jesus was without sin? Jews believe people are intrinsically good but can be misled to evil. At least that's what ...
You're describing today's extended stay hotel. In the US all hotels have bathrooms in the room, but in filthy Europe, they don't care. Hostels over th...
So yeah, it's hunky dory to treat non-citizens like shit but an atrocity to treat some citizens as better than others, so if a nation decides to call ...
There isn't any confusion on my end. You have an objection to disparate treatment of citizens within Israel based upon ethnicity and have no inclinati...
I didn't miss your point. I was pointing out that you've made a distinction that makes no moral difference. You are hanging on an arbitrary legal defi...
The question isn't why you reside in the US. It's why you're justified to live in the US. Surely there are those justified in living in the US who wer...
And what basis did the founders have in calling America the land of the free, considetimg they had just recently stumbled upon it? And why is the US r...
It's not far fetched to assume they'd reclaim whatever English land ownership there might be and to limit non-Scottish immigration. Whether they'd all...
I think most of those who claim sex can't be changed will change their mind if a pill is created that in every way changes one's sex. You exaggerate y...
One way we can distinguish how much of their maleness a transitioned female has retained is by having her compete against biologically born women. Whe...
If the suggestion is that transition surgery is medically appropriate in order to save the lives of those suffering from gender dysphoria, then it wou...
The Shoutbox is not technically a thread, but is a general area to recreate the old real time shoutbox on the old PF, which itself was not a thread. T...
This thread has been going on for three years, making it the longest thread on this Forum. I expect 2020 to continue with this thread and then onward ...
God to me is more a representation of a proper goal, anchored in Truth. Without God, we have no way of knowing why buying a bunch of toys is a lesser ...
I'll concede your empirical claims: senses come before concepts and socialization in humans is necessary for survival. Concepts being linguistic is no...
I started breathing in 1966, so you're a tad older. Going completely by recollection, I've seen a major change in expected standard of living. We buy ...
Are you presenting a thought experiment of someone born alone and never having his self developed due to a lifetime of isolation or you suggesting the...
Because Trump looks unpredictable, destructive, not concerned with proportionality, and egotistical.. I'd be scared shitless if I lived in Iran. Ameri...
I think the strategy has been one of increasing sanctions, open mutual hostility, and a lack of diplomacy. Iranian hostilities go back from my memory ...
No, and nor is Obama, who trespassed into Pakistan to assassinate OBL in what the Dems have now clarified as a violation of international law. Fortuna...
I don't equate collaboration with altruism, but think of it as working together for a common goal. Collaboration does not imply egalitarianism either,...
Their seems more focused on delaying pregnancy until the addiction issues have been addressed: From their website: "Our mission is to continue to reac...
No. Nixon wasn't prosecuted. There's a long standing DOJ policy not to prosecute sitting presidents, but there's no Constitutional prohibition. https:...
"The majority opinion, by Chief Justice William Rehnquist, held that the courts may not review the impeachment and trial of a federal officer because ...
Your suggestion that there is no difference between the vagueness of the impeachment process and the clarity of a criminal prosecution isn't interesti...
There is a legal means to enforce a Congressionally issued subpoena. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-congress-subpoena-explainer/explaine...
The Georgia law on theft, for example: "A person commits the offense of theft by taking when he unlawfully takes or, being in lawful possession thereo...
It is, and when they do, the President will be impeached, but not before. As you guys have gone on and on describing the great need for this impeachme...
And this is non-responsive to my post. My comment relates to the vague Constitutional standard and the legal description of the allegations contained ...
No, the problem is I'm right, even if the Democrats are right that Trump deserves removal. The Senate gets to be wrong and that'll be the final word. ...
You just really don't fully understand the judicial process. How does this case get to the Court? Who has standing to bring it? Someone is going to su...
Your attempt to directly analogize a judicial proceeding with an impeachment fails on many levels. The President has been accused vaguely of "high cri...
You sort of made up the thing about Senators taking an oath to be impartial jurors. They represent those who elected them. Yeah, except Senators aren'...
The Constitution says nothing about articles of impeachment either, so I'd suspect the could impeach by just saying it. Maybe the Senate can start the...
The truth is obvious here. The House accomplished something the Senate will undo, so they want to delay it or possibly stop it by complaining the Sena...
No, Clinton's articles of impeachment went to the Senate, at which point he was impeached. Trump hasn't been impeached. Apparently the House, having n...
The House can try to manipulate the process in the Senate, which will have no impact on the final result. Regardless, Trump has yet to be impeached, w...
The Senate has not been asked to decide anything and there has been no request by the House that Trump be considered for removal from office. Sure, it...
Not until they've transmitted the articles to the Senate does the impeachment occur. That requires an act of the House, not the Senate. I am aware of ...
Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Trump HAS NOT been impeached yet. Unless and until the articles of impeachment have been transmitted to the Senate, ...
The real question is the number of Democrat detectors there will be. In the House, 3 Dems defected and 0 Repubs. I'm not sure why you think it'll be a...
