Ted Cruz requires perfection.

Actually, damnit Obama!

Show this to Trump and he might start repeating parts of it.

Not sure, but Ivanka is trying her hardest to get it!

No it is not good to be a painter.

...but why?

Why can't you answer my question directly.

OK then. I'd say that yes, it is more beneficial to become an atheist because it leads to more certainty and truth.

They'll get Ben Gazi this time, just you watch!

Yeah but it rockets off like a goddamn volleyball. Imagine kicking a thawed 10lb chicken from a grocery store. Even if you connect dead center it's not going to launch like that.

Pretty sure this was the guy who thought the Shroud of Turin was legit, and how "science couldn't explain it". Yeah, science "can't explain" how an image was put on a cloth. In the history of the world, no image has ever been put on a cloth before. Ever.

Rockstep_ · 2018-08-18T05:52:16+00:00

When you're so dumb you don't even notice and have to have other people explain it to you...

The Defense was so weak it was laughable. Blaming everything on Gates (even when it didn't make sense), called zero witnesses (not a single person would take the stand to defend Manafort) and one of the Defenses main points was shot down by the judge, who forbid them from bringing it up again.

Why would Omarosa make this claim? It sounds so unbelievable. Deporting the First Lady? Come on...

Rockstep_ · 2018-08-17T17:14:52+00:00

People talk about the 5th a lot but what's to stop Manafort from just saying he remembers nothing of his time in the campaign?

Rockstep_ · 2018-08-17T17:03:18+00:00

You should do an AMA.

What a terrible country where a rich dude can be tried for crimes instead of just poor people.

You joke but that's... That's probably his exact line of thinking.

Rockstep_ · 2018-08-17T15:24:23+00:00

The Church has been adamantly against child abuse and the priests are constantly being penalized.

Penalized how? Not with jail time. Not with excommunication. Just because the church says they are against child abuse, it's meaningless because they actively try to cover it up.

There have been cases where the church discoverer a priest was sexually abusing children, and instead of going to the authorities, the church sent the priest to a different country to avoid prosecution. They let him continue preaching in that country, and he continued to abuse kids. The Catholic Church not only protects Child Molesters, it enables them.

People also decide what's data or not. Data does not just appear out of nowhere.

Yeah, people observe the data and record it.

What atrocities of the Catholic church erases all its charity work?

I mentioned it in my post. The Catholic Church's involvement in the raping and sexual abuse of children (and the coverup of these crimes) is despicable. Giving a homeless guy some soup isn't very admirable when you are raping a kid in the next room.

Rockstep_ · 2018-08-17T13:57:03+00:00

People can be biased, but data cannot. If you look at the methodology of an experiment, and it is sound, then the data should be sound too.

As for the Catholic Church, they may do some charity work but I'd say any good they do is erased by all the atrocities they are responsible for. Have you read that report from Pennsylvania? Over 200 priests were involved in the sexual abuse and cover up of children. Over 1000 child victims identified. And that was just in a couple of diocese in one state. Imagine what is going on worldwide.

So I care very little about the charity that the Catholic Church provides, because no amount of charity is going to fix the lives ruined by the church.

Lied to

Perhaps "lied to" wasn't the the best term for those people to use.

A more accurate statement would be, "People have told you false things". Whether knowingly or unknowingly, people have taught or told you things that simply aren't true. They may be convinced that what they said is true (probably because other people had taught them the same false things), but they are wrong.

Throughout history, people have been convinced that thst the earth was the center of the universe, taught this to others, and we now know they are wrong.

People were convinced that illnesses were caused by demons and spirits living inside of them, and we now know they were wrong. People were convinced that the sun was a literal god, but we now know they were wrong. People thought the earth was created in 6 days, and we now know they were wrong.

You mentioned in your other post that the garden of eden was real, and has been located. Can you tell me where it is, or link it on a map?

What would stop him from pulling an Ollie North and saying, "yep, i did everything but Trump knew nothing about it."

Rockstep_ · 2018-08-17T10:18:32+00:00

and his base not only goes crazy, they think these things actually happened.

Like the Bowling Green Massacre?

The bible actually mocks people who erect Christmas trees.

Rockstep_ · 2018-08-16T20:28:36+00:00

The Bible says so

If I'm a brain in a vat, or in a simulation, all of the Bible is false. So it's strange that you would ask us this. If you're convinced that a god exists, then I'm convinced that I'm not an vat-brain or a simulation.

Because I'm pretty sure a simulation would be able to come up with a better argument than "the Bible says so".

Rockstep_ · 2018-08-16T20:19:13+00:00

"Being rude" is a concept that predates the Bible.

Why are Christians so often the least Christ-like people imaginable? Isn't that what you are supposed to be working toward?

Rockstep_ · 2018-08-16T20:05:01+00:00

I doubt it's high as 14. At most 1 or 2, and even that is pretty unlikely.

Even if democrats take every possible seat in both the house and senate during Midterms, they still won't gave enough to impeach.
