    Do you believe in predestination ?

    I was attempting to express my interpretation of a thought experiment which you proposed. My initial attempt (which wasn't concrete enough I don't think): And so here now was my attempt at an improvement (now also with new coordinating references): Thanks for the opportunity. :e4e:

    Guns!

    Look at the AP being all responsible and trying to avoid partisan electioneering rhetoric. Almost like they're trying to be a professional, respectable journalist organization or something. Crazy.

    Fasting thread

    84 hours. I didn't watch this whole thing through yet but it's unlikely to be vulgar, and from what I have watched he's promoting some of the common ideas commonly promoted by fasting enthusiasts.

    Fasting thread

    This came out of the Lifting thread, @Jefferson mentioned he fasts weekly and he got me intrigued about it. I personally tie it together with lifting weights and fitness but plenty of people don't, many people fast for religious and spiritual reasons as well, so I thought I'd make a new thread...

    This Fourth of July, it’s worth pondering the true meaning of patriotism

    Ukraine Crisis

    Part of how our Constitution works is protecting political speech. How else can we improve it (through the amendment process) without airing views that are contrary to the current Constitution? The Constitution is changed each time it's amended; when it's changed, it's no longer the same as it...
