My, how easily you throw terms like this around. How is he an antisemite? His comparison of Venezuela's crime statistics with the holocaust was sheer ...

Yeah, but nothing approaching the apocalypse, so you can cool your jets. How could you possibly know that?

>:O

Sure, but I don't see the need to ban idiots.

I see. Yeah, he's a bit of a neocon, but then, so am I, so that's probably why I like him.

I disagree with the ban. The insinuation that he's a Nazi is based on pretty flimsy evidence. If you're going to accuse someone of almost the worst th...

I like David Horowitz. How do you characterize him?

This is contradictory. What makes us moral if not that which grounds morality?

Good. I think what I was suggesting is plain for all to see.

This hardly sounds like I'm "covering for him." And you haven't refuted what I said. Granted, it would be difficult to refute, since it's just my impr...

You didn't answer my question. Why did you choose to interpret his remarks hyper literally? It's my understanding that Trump uses this phrase to talk ...

Because they may come to America from said countries? Duh.

It's not an either/or, though. We can and should focus on both.

What does this mean? Why do you think I'm doing so? My original comment was about how I thought the claim that Trump is a liar is overblown. He doesn'...

Like we're already doing, we'll switch to alternative fuel sources, like natural gas and renewables.

I'm highly skeptical of this and certainly not going to take your word for it. No it wasn't. It wasn't a Muslim ban. You said Trump said that a terror...

No I didn't.

Why would you choose to take what he said that literally and then proceed to offer several articles covering certain events that happened today? Do yo...

From a recent article I read: I would add the hysteria surrounding the travel ban as well, which the media claimed was a "Muslim ban." I see no eviden...

I think he believes a lot of the stories about him are fake news, about which he is right. I grant you that the executive branch has too much power an...

:-|

I said that one needn't read someone's posts if they don't want to. I wanted to read your posts in this thread, so I've responded. How typical. Just l...

Sorry, but you're not going to get my sympathy. You're a mod on a tiny Internet forum complaining about having to read stuff that mods read. So? Don't...

Don't read or post about what you don't like or aren't interested in. It's very simple.

Much ado about nothing it seems to me....

Right, you're merely proving my point. Anything a church does to gain members is to "adapt," so you can't ever be wrong. I don't dispute what you say.

These are precisely its strengths that have allowed it to endure for 2000 years. You no longer have a universal church when you take such things away....

So what's "good new age?"

I thought you meant what he says, not the center. I just gave you an example.

Nah. And I never claimed they were....

No, that's how they wither and die. See mainline Protestant Christianity. Been where? Watch his damn videos. The man has the Om symbol equaling mc2 be...

Cry me a river. A Franciscan would. I don't give two figs if someone's wealthy.

He's "written" dozens of books, has a new age center, and goes around giving talks like the above one. No, I don't have any direct evidence, that's wh...

Pfft. Stop all this make-nice sappiness. You're all just pretending and you know it. Hate each other. It's the Internet.

I saw a video by him a few months ago and was slightly intrigued but then watched a few more and slowly began to see his MO. He's just another new age...

The bait isn't juicy enough for me to be sarcastic. I can give you points for trying, though.

Yeah, basically.

No.

Me? No.

By leftists, think the people who like to scream, violently riot, block speakers on college campuses, or try to publicly shame people who express diff...

Talk about hastiness! I never accused you of anything. You strike me as a modern liberal, not a leftist, and I make a distinction between the two. Lef...

Plus, it's a bit rich for leftists to pretend to be great defenders of science when they also claim there are half a dozen genders; or when they claim...

That's not false, though. There are scientists who aren't motivated by silly religious ideas and aren't energy corporation shills who question some of...

Yeah, I like that model quite well. I might call myself that too.

You could be a free market socialist. Free exchange of goods and services determined by supply and demand + cooperatively owned businesses and corpora...

There's no quote in that article saying he denies climate change. Just vague insinuations to that effect. All I got from it was that he sued the EPA, ...

Interesting. Thanks for sharing. Where did you get this from?

So? Been described? Is he one or not? That doesn't make him a denier. You're concerned that people can question climate science? Concerned enough to i...

Because?

Hmm. Well, that sounds like an uncharitable characterization of the man to say the least.
