  • You are in my Prayers

    I read your article, ''What I've learned from debating religious people around the world'' with fascination. To provide you with some insight I am what is commonly called an evangelical Christian, but could not be accurately labeled as a full Calvinist. I try my best to communicate in a manner that saves others from perdition and I likewise strive ...

  • Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor -- Says Roe Is "Settled Law"

    All I need to know about today's U.S. Senate Nomination Hearing for Liberal New York City Feminist Sotomayor, is that she thinks the appalling pro-Abort ''Roe vs. Wade'' Supreme Court ''Decision'' of 1973, is ''Settled Law'' (her words.) Hispanic voters may be trending towards the Democratic Party side of the political ledger lately, and who ...

  • Science as Religion

    He has religious beliefs and is also a great scientist. There is no evidence that Collins' Christian beliefs have ever limited or impeded scientific pursuits. Collins' qualifications should not be suspect merely because he holds religious views.The idea that scientists should (or CAN) have completely objective views about every facet of life ...

  • Learn to get along

    The positioning of the gay community as the anti-Christianity movement is a losing proposition for them. Find the common ground and discuss the differences openly, but insults and attacks create the divides that lead to collateral and unnecessary damage. The very reason I voted for Barack was he espoused to put aside the differences, focus on ...

  • Hitchens lets his passion undermine his point

    These rants from Hitchens have entertainment value, I suppose, but as with all of today's opinion-driven media they must be taken with a grain of salt. A lot could be written, but I'll just focus on one point here: Hitchens is mistaken to think that a failure to conflate Mormonism with Christianity indicates bigotry. The teachings of Mormonism ...

  • Fantastic article!

    Someone tell me why those in the USA who try so hard to get the 10 commandments posted all over in our public square and taught to our kids in school break so many of them trying to get that done? And also fight so hard to take money from the poor and middle class and put in the hands of the rich? And also to keep corporate greed-based health ...

  • Evangelical Ball and Chain

    I must admit that I enjoyed watching the GOP self-destruct during the last few months...even if I focus my disdain on specific factions of the party. But I can't help but put myself in the position of a Republican strategist and attempt to answer the question ''What should the party do now?'' To this I would say one thing: ditch the evangelicals. ...

  • I always knew you had at least one puff piece in you...

    ...and I wish it had stayed in you. The movie you should have written about in your piece on Sarah Palin is David Cronenberg's The Dead Zone... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1VHSQV0yn8 Don't think I'm claiming to be what Pastor Ed of Wasilla Assembly of God claims to be - a prophet. One need not have powers of prognostication to know that ...

  • Re: Fundamental Problem with Singer et al

    Agreed. If you're stronger, you can kill the competition to increase your chance of survival and success- might makes right. This evolutionary principle was used to justify the greatest atrocities of the 20th century. A modest guess is 100 million people died because of the pseudo-scientific philosophy- mostly in countries during ...

  • Lieing Hypocrites

    What an article. Talk about no research. Did the author just call up the JW PR department and copy down everything they told him? Yes, the Watchtower Society promoted the fact that the poor Witnesses in the African country of Malawi were being persecuted because they were told by the Watchtower not to buy a political I.D. card. If they did the ...
