I'm personally holding out for cold fusion.

I have a problem with quite a few of the words you used, or more specifically, how you used them. To begin with: Traditional Morality Ideal Coherent Conscious Morale Christian Precedent If you are able to make a case that divorce is wrong without the use of any*of these words, or any of their...

He got pulled for a variety of reasons. One of the things is that unlike South Park, who draw in caricatures of their celebrity guests, Imus got big names on his show. People with money, power, and influence. That was a big part of the show. By tarnishing the show in any way, he jeopardized...

Oh, I don't mean little white lies. I mean if you're really going to become good at lying, you learn to mix just enough truth in with the lies in order to make them believable. Starting out, go with about an 80%/20% ratio of truth to fallacy, but as you get better at it, cut back on the truth...

I drink only beer and wine, about a case of each per day. I prefer the beer with my name on it, as you'll see in my signature, and for a wine a good white shiraz.

Out of curiousity, did you read the initial post in this thread that clarified the topic at hand, or any other posts in this thread before you decided to chime in, or just the title?

Some scientists chalk this up to a chemical in the brain similar to or even identical to the massive hallucinogen DMT being released either right before or right after the actual physical death or near death. They say this also explains the tunnel and/or white light.

Does this include Hitler, Mussolini, or Stalin as well? What about Saddam? Should he have had a second chance?

If they are not bad people, why would it even be necessary to jail or execute them? There is nothing wrong with them, they just made some poor choices, correct? All you need to do is persuade them to make better choices with their lives. On the other hand, if you execute them, are you not...

True power comes from within, from the self and the self alone.

The consequences of the actions? Lots of men, women and children were raped, tortured and died brutally. What would you think the consequences would be?

You tell me, are they bad people? Are they good people that did bad things? If so, what makes them good people?

It's unfortunate that you are unfamiliar with Hebrew, Koine Greek, and even Persian. What you are quoting are actually translations of translations, and not at all accurate. This brief quote should familiarize you with one brief aspect of the linguistic concept of Satan: Satan is to be better...

Some called me the father of lies, but I've found if you really want to manipulate or hurt someone, you tell them the dead truth. Then again, I would have to say that the best lies are half-truths.

On June 28, 1984, Ramirez claimed his first known victim. Ramirez entered through an opened window of Glassel Park resident Jennie Vincow, age 79. According to Philip Carlo's book, 'The Night Stalker,' he became angry after not finding anything of value to steal, and began stabbing the sleeping...

You ever read Huyman's book, La Bas, out of curiousity? Supposedly he was present at black masses where the devil actually appeared. It was what made him eventually become a monk and devoutly Christian, because he figured it the devil were real, then so was god.

I can tell you exactly what happens when you die. First you get really stiff, then you turn funny colours. Then you begin to stink. Usually someone buries you, and you slowly rot and are eaten by various organisms until only your bones are left.

No, everything you know cannot be explained through science. Well, maybe everything you personally know can be, but there are things that go beyond science, and situations where science has to admit its current limitations.

I know that I certainly didn't get forced into believing a certain religion, that's for sure, but it's a typically human practice since the beginning of time. Converted by the sword, so to speak, even if there isn't always a literal sword involved.
