    OK, it's time I revealed what the actual test is. The test was to pose a question and measure who could answer it by simply presenting an argument versus who would turn to personal attacks and insults to make their point. Those in the former group--thankfully most respondents--passed. Those in the latter group--just a few--failed the test. What group did you end up in?

    What a nonsense - you are not able to give a concrete example. And you are not able to say why somepone like Adolf Hitler was existing who was denying all laws of survival for everyone and ended (like lots of other big Nazis) in a form of ritualized suicide.

    If you say something like "children sacrificing themselve for others" - then give me please a concrete example for such a behavior if you are not able to understand the difference between evolution as a science and evolutionism as an ideology. This may help to clear your thoughts.

    LOL! People like me? Okay that's pretty funny. You're wrong. I mean not like a little wrong. You're like so wrong, they would need new laser technology in order to measure the distance of wrongess you have achieved.

    But I love that kind of assumption because it's so easy to prove how colossally wrong it is! Wanna see? Here we go!

    What kind of laws would someone like me, pass that are based on stone-aged belief systems? Take your best shot! You won't get one right. Not one. That's how wrong you are!

    Oh wrongness, thy name is Panzerkampfwagen....

    Oh, and lest I forget to directly answer your question (wouldn't want to dodge!):

    the·o·ry
    1. A supposition or a system of ideas intended to explain something, esp. one based on general principles independent of the thing to be explained: "Darwin's theory of evolution".
    2. A set of principles on which the practice of an activity is based.

    So let's see if you dodge mine!

    You realize, don't you, that when you say that a concept like "evolution" or "biology" does something like "selects," you are anthropomorphizing that concept. You are speaking in terms of "it" as a consciousness--not unlike "God."

    Quite frankly, this makes no sense at all. Perhaps it was just typed too fast and you didn't realize that you were not expressing your thought well. I'll give you another chance...

    oooookay, then...


    It always amazes me when individuals spout nonsense like it's fact, and then don't care to actually back up the claims.

    It sort of sounds like what anti-theists accuse religious people of doing. You know what that's called? Hypocrisy.


    Good day.:sun:

    God is mother nature itself.

    ie.... mankind was 'created' within (the evolution of life over time)

    mankind created words

    mankind created the god(s) the idiots you are asking have learned to worship!



    and not a person can deny them facts, without lying to themselves.

    Proof; all learned about their god from words.

    okay.


    I like the official version.


    Even if it was eventually shot down, there is tons of evidence that they INTENDED and TRIED to do what is recorded as the official version, and that is what matters to me. The phone conversations tell the tale of heroism. That is the best that we are as human beings.

    you like 'the cannon' too

    (what is accepted by others and could care less for the truth)

    no it aint.

    What is true is what is best, no matter how ugly it is!

    Well...I believe the official version IS true. And, as I said--the essence of the matter is the intent of the heroes--either way.




    ....You seem to miss the forest for all the trees blocking your view.

    Your continously argumentation "I am right because others are idiots, liars and ugly" shows to me that you should drink some bottles of beer less a day.

    there is the difference; you dont care about reality as long as a hero has a stage to look up too


    quite the opposite; you see the hero (one tree) and forget what is real to the whole



    What i find interesting about you, is that you actually will convince yourself that your opinion is best because others present a belief as having logic.


    In this flight 93 case; the administration felt it was best to shoot the plane down for the good of all. There was already 3 planes into the towers and pentagon. It was the right decision.


    but the simple minded need a hero versus having the capacity of just holding onto the character of the choice.


    For example; i know it is best to just stone a liar, than allow then to lie and harm others.

    or a cleaner example; put a glass rod into the winkie of a rapist/pedophile and break it. No one who is aware of the penalty will rape a person/child once witnessing the example

    you may have pity on the selfish and their actions

    I dont

    likewise............ if the idiots actually want to hold onto the lies of their beliefs, they can but dam them for harming another with their weaknesses.

    ie... note the comparison of the rapist/pedophile with the religious preachers............. i say, deal with them directly as look what is is doing to mankind.

    beer was a creation because water was tough to store and be safe.


    now a days.... it is a passtime for entertainment


    i would like to have liars hung as a passtime............... because it aint safe to have the selfish around our future generations!

    It seems to me you are thinking you are a great genius if you are agressive. Perhaps it's much more easy: Tell me why you are hating Christians - what is the real reason behind your completly drunken arguments?

    Perhaps I recognize that the reality transcends the minutia. If you think that one has to examine the pores of life and see the ugly filth and stench of what is amid us--and dwell amid that, then you miss the beauty and gentleness of the reality that is. Refer to Swift's Brobdingnagians to better understand.







    Your sentence makes no sense.

    Evidence of this "reality?" And you call others "liars." Bah!


    Having character IS heroic.

    Yes. I do have pity for those in bondage to selfishness, or, as the case may be, slaves to delusions of grandeur.

    BTW--It's "hanged." Coats & pictures get "hung," people (liars) get "hanged."

    No, you guys spent the thread lying, twisting what I said, etc so why would I even bother discussing it with people bent on lying?

    Can you prove that he does not exist? Give it a go. If you are intellectually honest, you will.
