Yes, the issue was who exactly does "all men" mean? Does it mean Black men? What about Black women? Unfortunately Thomas Jefferson didn't think much of Black men and Black women, in spite of all his glowing rhetoric. It's a good thing Jefferson wasn't our only founder, otherwise we'd have a...

What does that mean? Does the woman reserve her right to not be raped even in those contrived thought experiments or not? Or are you saying that at 'the point of no return' for the human race, that it doesn't matter anymore? Please clarify. My answer, to repeat, is that even in or under...

You're extremely condescending to me. For someone so much younger than me.

Huh. So when a high pressure steam pipe ruptures you wouldn't burn to death but freeze to death? Never would have thought that.

Clouds.

Here's a couple in their 70s. You can see them doing deadlifts in a few of the clips in the weight room. I'm not saying they're doing them particularly well, but wearing those weightlifting belts can help prevent injury; they might be worth looking into.

It doesn't appear to me that water can be both supercritical and ice cold, not if I'm reading phase diagrams correctly. If it was ice cold it wasn't supercritical and if it was supercritical it couldn't have been ice cold.

All I want is more urgency is all. Yes, I've thought it out further than just the next step, but the next step is more urgency. I reject that "what's the difference?" and "can't be undone", "hope", "untenable proposals" are distinct from what you call "pie in the sky". All of these support...

Also true. Of course many Christians owned slaves and many Christians were slaves, so Christian isn't really the operating principle.

We had a problem with slavery. That one took a war to fix. If you remember, President Lincoln justified the war with words from our founding moral treatise: ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL he said.

= quote-unquote "Originalists", a shorthand form denoting those who take America's founding moral philosophy as the controlling morality in our country, and thus interpret (the distinctive lawyerly work) the Constitution according to it. Preexisting, permanent, universal and indivisible moral...

And my post wasn't belligerent. Hence the smilie. :)

So long as we get the right jurists.

I don't think that's much of an assumption. He made a garden. Gardens are bedded with soil. What I mean is, the Scripture almost explicitly said that He made soil, when it explicitly does say, that He made plants and a garden. Soil is what plants live in, and what gardens are bedded with. :)

Those are the founding Christian principles of America. You're more American than Marke. . . . Marke

I am also exactly that. America's founding moral philosophy is God's moral philosophy: Universal inborn (AB's "inbuilt") indivisible human rights; i.e. "ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL"

He'd confirm the justices that President Trump did in fact nominate (not rhetorically or theoretically, he really did nominate them): Quote-unquote judicial "Originalists".

300 LBS 4 (0 rir /rnr) That's it; that's the workout. I could only do four reps at 300 LBS, so I stopped. The weight that you can only do four times in a row (to 0 rnr = none left), when you're at your strongest (right before your first set) is the literally heaviest weight you want to work...

Do you only mean that corruption exists in the party? When I hear you say this I think you mean corrupt like Latin American and African and Middle Eastern regimes who are literally illegitimate. They're basically bought and paid for, every last one of them, which is why none of them are safe...

Fact is if you want to define left wing as collectivist and utilitarian, the opposite of that is individualistic and absolute. So one form of individualism is anarchism, and one form of absolutism is identity politics. Anarchistic identity politics is like the most opposite politics from...
