Odd that you would mention this. Looking at posts by Annabanana, Rusha, the E-squad, Arthurbraindead, and perhaps a few others I no longer pay attention to, this phenomena you describe is more on the left than the right. More often will you find the "Obama/Biden/Harris/Hillary are God's gift to...

I frequently heard the story of my mother's first taste of wine. Back in her day, no one was surprised if a woman hadn't drunk alcohol because the culture frowned on women drinking and there was never a lack of things to quench one's thirst so most women didn't care. My father took her on a date...

I should have been more clear. First, I mean law of the state, not God's law. Second, by license I meant "allowing to", "not stopping someone from doing something". In that way I think my comments make sense. Put in a nutshell, all crimes are sins but not all sins are crimes.

This is what I explained to ACW a few posts ago on why I was not a libertarian. I agree that we cannot have liberty without morality, nor morality without faith. As you point out, libertarians must exclude morality and faith as the foundation of what they call liberty. But I think the roll of...

A moral obligation is an internal obligation to do what is right/good. For example in the context of COVID, I have a moral obligation to figure out if academics, politicians, and the MSM is telling the truth about COVID. As it turns out, they were lying, which creates a new obligation to help...

Hilltrot beat me to it: So, what you're sayin is that you hate God and everything he represents. You want the innocent punished and the guilty to go unpunished. And since you did not deny being a Democrat, you obviously want innocent babies murdered. You, dear sir, are despicable.

Omniskeptical said: But they don't work at all, so you are only placating people's nerves. They don't placate your nerves? Typical female. edit: I meant Typical Hysterical Female.

So you don't think we should have freedom? Even leftists think freedom is great, as long as every free individual desires to do exactly as they say.

I wonder what the age of the people dying of the vaccine is?

You have a moral obligation to understand this study and realize you were wrong. This outburst shows you let emotion control your views.

The reason I say I'm not a libertarian is because I offer a solution that libertarians also offer. And since they are more well known than I am, one might think I'm offering that solution because I'm a libertarian. But I'm not. I'm not a libertarian because the logical conclusion to...

Of course not. What I do know, from demonstration, is that making alcohol illegal makes things worse. So why are things so bad with alcohol? It's the bad justice system that does not prosecute crime properly when crimes are easier to commit when drunk. And a bad law system that does not allow...

I think the result of decriminalization will ultimately end up the same as alcohol. And the medical problems with pot will also be well known if it is legal and I think that will result in lower usage than other drugs. But I have no way to prove that will be the result. Although I think I have...

Yes, we are talking about 2 different groups. Although calling the group I focus on as those that "like to party" misses the mark a bit. I'm talking about people who use but not so much that they can't keep a veneer of normalcy in their lives in wider society (while people closer always know the...

Having not had to deal with addicts my whole life until recently, I can see now that the "hard ball" approach I had supported is counter-productive. Most addicts, depending on your definition of what an addict is, heal themselves. They all know it's bad, but most young people that start taking...

Is there any place that didn't have lockdowns? Their death rates look pretty much the same as any other place. I actually took the time to get the death number data from worldometer everyday for a long time, even though the same data is available from conservative sources. Did you take the time...

That's the best kind

Eider and expose4 and exminister... something with the letter "e" and comedy posts?

Aren't you even going to be curious about why things also got better everywhere even where there were no vaccinations? Some of those places didn't have any lockdowns or masks mandates, either. It had nothing to do with lockdowns or vaccines. It's just a normal infectious disease cycle. Since...

You act as if words don't change meaning over time. "Conception" used to mean from fertilization, now it means from implantation. If I use the word "conception" meaning from fertilization, you should understand from the context. Likewise, even if you didn't understand before, you should...
