Why do so many people here get emotionally involved with the topics? I look upon this forum as a place to go to practice critical thinking and to lear...

This is how problems get solved by rational thought.

I repeat, I have never stated that I am against any form of regulations or laws. I have from the beginning only questioned their efficiency in doing w...

So if everyone in Texas drives around in cars with "Get rid of guns" bumper stickers, wearing t-shirts with the "Get rid of guns" slogan on it and pla...

According to the articles I have read, it states that he was riding an illegal street bike. that must mean that there are regulations in place. They d...

Don't you want to make a reply to my proposal for a solution?

Spending money on social development, education, health care instead of soldiers and death machines.

I could not agree with you more. It is just that I don't understand why people keep on insisting that the only way to solve the problem is by gun cont...

So there is your proof, the laws were useless in preventing things like this from happening. And that law appears to have expired anyway.

Arguing from emotion does not get reasonable answer or solutions to problems. That was pathetic. As far as I can see no one has even come near to sugg...

Option 2.

Ok, so you don't really know much about them. Any rifle can be made into an automatic weapon fairly easily with the tools found in almost any handy ma...

So you think that collecting a bunch of guns and ammo, sending the missus on a trip are impulsive? Shit I would hate to see what he would have done if...

What do I uses as a search phrase? "What does Baden think an assault rifle is?" Doubt that would work some how, unless YOUR OPINION is sort of famous.

Could you please tell me just what you think an assault rifle is and what is your reasoning as to why it should be illegal.

Good job I am not a gun advocate then isn't it.

He was also a freakin millionaire and would have bought them illegally if there had been stricter laws. The laws would not have stopped him at all. I ...

Never said we should not try to stop them, I just asked for an explanation maybe of how any present or future gun laws could have stopped this guy fro...

Does anyone have any evidence that gun control would have actually stopped any of the recent killings? I find it hard to believe that someone like the...

As a wise man once said. "We pay a high price for our freedom, sometimes we pay with our lives"

Damn right we will. (Y)

Not really, more of a Freudian thing. Super-ego - ego - id type of conflict. Most people bend to the external pressures just to have a peaceful life. ...

Society expects men to be masculine, just as it expects women to be feminine. It is part of their folkways and mores. Expression of both varies from c...

Gasp!! :-* Put those things away man.

I bet that did wonders for your athlete's foot. :D

We need a SCREAM BOX.

Err, hahaha I think.

Show off. Just had to show us your mirrored closet doors next to the bed didn't you. And the sky light to look at the stars in a romantic interlude. B...

Bloody marvelous, where is the thumbs up button when you need it? (Y) (Y) Edit ; What do they Elves do?

I think I agree. But just a comment I expect no answer to. The lord of the rings is a grand story. It contains most of the situations found in the bib...

You have asked that question a few times now, could you answer it. I have done this many times before and have been given the same answers usually. If...

No, I walk without him. He would not walk anywhere with me after the number of times I have denied his existence. But so many do. I'll let you think a...

Cheers Tiff, here's to all. Got a couple of 6 packs of cheap Portuguese beer that tastes good, so the first one will be dedicated to all of those frie...

Yes, thank you for pointing it out. (Y) Fixed it.

I live with a great deal of humility, I am not consumed by world concerns for my own sake nor for my ego's sake. And I don't have to blame god for the...

Thank you, So it is clear, there was no need to do any fancy interpretations, just read it. It is nice to know that even ordinary people can read the ...

So why then? Damn, I should have figured that out. Do I need an interpreter to explain it for me. Not unless I am stupid. So do you have any new image...

I agree, and that is about all the modern bible is. A historically document that has been corrupted so that no one alive today can ever hope to interp...

So we do agree on what a parable is. When I dream about someone I know telling me something, I understand what they are saying. Why I had the dream is...

How does this example prove anything? Did Peter not know what god was saying to him? Did he fail to understand that someone came to get him? I honestl...

But that is only lack of data, not a way of interpretation. Yes you are right, it could be talking about the color of the stool I just left in the bat...

Bloody hell. Does that mean that even the knowledgeable, the enlightened, the blessed ones don't agree on what religious texts mean. :s That sounds ju...

OK, thanks if someone found the problem and fixed it for me, but now it works again, so if no one did anything then I guess I should just give a nod t...

Lots of people have already done that, but most of them had something to say that people wanted to listen to. Like Hitler or Martin Luther.

But the thing is mate that you and me just don't know how to interpret them. They are full of hidden meanings that god put there so that we poor human...

That is so true, it means exactly what it says, "walk humbly with God"

So let's try something. interpret this for me. What is the special hidden meaning here 1 Then an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing at the ri...

So if I write "The cat is black and was a year old when she had kittens" you would not be able to understand it just by reading the text? Of course yo...
