Dorian might hit Georgia, and I note no one has extended any concern in my direction. Atlanta is not on the coast, sure, but there is the possibility ...
The neutral words would be "less common." It's less common to be gay, black, a philosopher, or an Indian chief. Because most people aren't black doesn...
I'd propose adding to the diagnostic criteria questionnaire asking whether one has previously committed mass murder, and if so, then providing the dia...
You've presented a homophobic argument, so the personal disclaimer appears inconsistent. The term "unnatural" carries a negative connotation, so your ...
It can also be used to try to clarify if something really is true. If I said "'Really' means duck in French," you might say, "really"?, and I'd say, "...
Oh, the irony in telling us you can speak in all tongues. Y'all (not ya'll) is a contraction of you all. It is the Southern American informal plural o...
I had a friend (you'd call him a "mate" because you guys mate your friends) who spoke this rhyming Cockney talk that seemed sort of cool, but it was a...
There is good argument that the "good and evil" reference is a literary device intended to mean knowledge of everything, not just of morality (the jux...
English beer is warm and stupid. You also don't put ice in your other drinks which is stupid too. Your lack of universal air conditioning isn't real s...
Gather round all you lads and lasses and I shall tell you the tale of our humble abode. Our nation had just emerged from the Great War. We were beaten...
If the knob falls off a door, we have a knobless door, not a wall. Maybe this is a thread about essentialism. I'm not sure. If it is, I'll just jump t...
I doubt he was ever going to talk. I do agree though that many were worried that an extensive prosecution would result in more damaging evidence being...
We have had threads about the right to die. Wouldn't a guy in Epsteins's situation be the perfect candidate for assisted suicide based upon the hopele...
And the even bigger picture is how long must those in mainland China continue to suffer under fascism. There is something painful in watching freedoms...
You're making an impossible distinction here. Obviously different tribes behaved differently across continents, but trying to distinguish them into te...
Assimilation is not a homogenation process. Germans can celebrate Oktoberfest and still be fully American. I would acknowledge that some groups do fig...
Not to get too far afield from the OP, but the actual word used is the Hebrew ????? (pronounced hevel) meaning vapor or breath. This term is obviously...
This assumes meaning is found in one's occupation and that an occupation is not simply a means to an end. I suspect you find meaning in life with your...
That's a debate I don't feel like having. It reopens the whole discussion of whether Bush sold the war as responsive to 9-11 as opposed to it being th...
I guess I'm looking for the examples of bad responses to the shootings. The usual response I've seen is sadness, crying, anger, maybe a prayer vigil, ...
To say that one is proud to be Irish compliments the Irish. To say one is ashamed to be Irish insults them. It therefore makes sense to be insulted by...
Perhaps, but that's not what she said. She said she was ashamed to have been born white and privileged. That is nothing to be ashamed of. Creating or ...
I've not advocated fearfulness as the solution, and it's doubtful that on a day to day basis those who've adopted your viewpoint live any differently ...
All Republicans are in favor of gun control. They just arbitrarily draw the line at automatic weapons and say those are just too dangerous to allow fo...
Yeah, well you're just saying that because you have too, not because you believe it. That 1% free will is interesting though. Maybe it gives your life...
If it'll piss you off maybe. Democrats are socialists now and Republicans are fiscally irresponsible without many ideas. I choose the latter 99%. The ...
Random murders occurring where one ought be safe is cause for alarm. We should feel. confident when we drop our kids off at school or go to the mall e...
Why does making them solely responsible make them less likely to do it? I'm up for giving both the organizer and the trigger man the maximum sentence....
A contract isn't a speech act? Sounds like an ad hoc exception to the absolutist free speech rule you advocated. If I ask you to murder someone for $1...
We don't have a world like that. We hold both the organizer and the person who followed the order responsible for the act. The "I was just following o...
And yet over 10 million people died who otherwise wouldn't have, yet in your world he would be free to go about his day, watering his daisies and what...
The serial killer tends to be the white male and the common murderer tends not to be a Trump supporter. That's just the truth, racist or not. One shou...
No one holds that the NT was written by God and only some fundamentalist sects hold that the 5 books of Moses were written by God. No one holds that a...
