I think some of the other kids on the playground have schooled you about all the "me me me me" BS. Of course it's going to engender a negative attitud...

Yeah, they won't be able to bend a knee. They will be on a stretcher, begging through gasps and drowning on their own fluids, giving docs permission t...

We are too, when the need arises. :roll:

Here's the deal: You aren't smart enough to know if a needle contained "nice stuff." The dummies who don't vax, get covid and run to the hospital like...

Doh! No; The whole idea of covid vaccination is that one can "go back to normal" once enough people are vaccinated. As usual, all the Murican Rebels h...

I've already explained this to you Isaac. Those people you reference don't exist. They are utterly worthless as to be deserving of nothing but to be k...

I think you miss my point. We have been playing your game, to no avail, since time immemorial. When will you ever learn? Your way does not work. If it...

Yup, still there. I'm not the guy to help. I don't know tech.

I don't know what you are doing, but your quotes come up "6mOptions" and it's disconcerting. Might want to ask some techy what's the hell is going on.

Well, I did not delete it so I don't know what happened. In any event, I don't think I have argued, in the context of this thread, that Darwin would s...

I think I already explained to you that I am not a peer or an expert. Nor do I read the journals. Nor would I know what methodology any experiment wou...

I've lost the context from which you quoted me. Can you please re-insert it? I *think* I might get your question but I don't want to answer without se...

No, I have not so failed. You clearly are being obstinate. The details are these, read my words (watch my lips): Distance, mask, vax. Wait, hold on. L...

You jump from people suffering the risks of certain behavior, to society learning to avoid them. I think that, from the opium dens to nicotine, to alc...

As has been explained, in this or other threads (I'm losing track) I judge others based upon their equally unqualified, incomplete assessment of the p...

I think there is confusion between the merits of the argument and the existence of the argument. I don't know shit about the former, but I am aware of...

Here's where your thinking fails you. I have a saying which is a play on words from another, older saying: "If the shoe doesn't fit, then why the hell...

Not true. Especially when dummies are propagating new variants all the time. By "dummies", I mean those who think the "vaccinated can't get ill no mor...

That's my point. I don' know. I'm not a "peer." But, like climate change, it seems most peers are on one side of the coin. Right or wrong, I'm throwin...

Look to what Neandertals did for each other in and around the cave. That. Space, water, food, clothing, shelter, medical, education, defense. Pretty f...

Your argument would have me be far more convincing if I rolled over and let the Trumpista's have their way. Then I could be righteous in my martyrdom....

That's only because you lack depth of thought, and think only of yourself. Had you any analytic reading skills, you would have seen all the care for o...

I know my position is subjective. Entirely. But the fact that others disagree and have every right to be wrong, does not mean they are right. They don...

Yes, love for my family, love for Americans, and love for my country. You are an enemy. I hate you. And I hate Trump and all who support him. And here...

"Have to change there way of life?" By social distancing, wearing a mask and vaxing? How inconvenient. :roll: Fuck the state. The state has not done s...

Hatred does not justify love. Love, however, can justify hatred. "I Don't Know How To Explain To You That You Should Care About Other People." Dr. Fau...

"I Don't Know How To Explain To You That You Should Care About Other People." Dr. Fauci

"I Don't Know How To Explain To You That You Should Care About Other People." Dr. Fauci

"I Don't Know How To Explain To You That You Should Care About Other People." Dr. Fauci

I don't want to start an argument, but you are being a little harsh on rats, snakes, weasels and vermin. I mean come on! :wink: Yeah, those Governors ...

Yeah, that's why I don't go down that road. On the other hand, I do remember lessons from biology and ecology about too much of a good thing. They are...

If harm were separate from motivation, unintentional, a mistake, then I'd have fewer questions. Science is often wrong, and people are often Guinea Pi...

I get it. To extrapolate, I do have questions, and questions can become misgivings, if you let them. It's just that once I make the call, I don't let ...

The same way they overcome any fear. Unless they are those who don't overcome any fear, and choose to hide under the bed. Personally, I stare at the n...

I don't. All my misgivings about the vaccine exist in a maelstrom of shit about public policy. I can't even ask those who have the creds about misgivi...

I'm sorry, but I didn't think I was implying anything. I thought I spelled it out pretty clearly.

I think you are worthless. I social distance for the same reason I have always social distanced. I wear a mask for the same reason I wear a gun. I too...

I'm not willing to pay any of your bills. If you don't social distance, don't mask and don't vax, and if you get sick and go to the hospital and take ...

Yes, really. No. You are supposed to believe those same pieces of shit are the same people who refuse a vaccine. Yes. It's called "science." Like when...

The old saying "The bigger they are, the harder they fall" applies here, I think. The bigger our population gets and the longer we delay, the more cat...

I usually leave people like you in the rear-view mirror. But I see here a teachable moment, and hope you can be taught. I’ve been banned from more int...

:100: And my mother always said, "If you borrow something, put it back the way and where you found it."

The same malady struck in 1865. Within twenty years, the statues started their long rise, the flag again flew, the liberated oppressed were still oppr...

My opinion: 1. Kind of. It pretends to logic but logic can defeat itself unless there is a "gentlemen's agreement" to ignore it. 2. Yes. And they are ...

:100: As far as the Earth is concerned, probably more like parasites than vermin. But yeah, right down there with them. They probably serve a purpose ...

Let me slow it down for you: "We all know the ball of heat that is the Earth’s magma is freaking tiny compared to the ball of heat that is the sun. Ho...

We all know the ball of heat that is the Earth’s magma is freaking tiny compared to the ball of heat that is the sun. However, the magma is a lot frea...

:up: And where one technology (especially an unknown and unproven one) is given the grace of time to develop and improve, I would think the same court...

See, now that wasn't so hard. :grin: Anyway, my mom just sent me sermon she got at church (she's a Christian) and it had an analogy from physics about...
