The one thing we know about international relations is that liberal regimes do not go to war with each other. That means it's the only idea going that might establish world peace. Nothing stomps out regimes deleterious to human rights like an overwhelming military. That's because you don't...

More like the cure.

To spread democracy. Because you believe in human rights. Because you believe in protecting morals. To secure our freedoms, liberties and rights. For the love of mankind. For the exercise, adventure, as a career.

Who is harmed by my belt-fed even though I have it left out openly as I go about my business? It's there in case I need it. You never know when you're going to need a belt-fed, simple plain fact. I argue incontrovertible. I'd get argument opposed to that argument, but I'd argue it's...

Our rights are an illusion. We live in the freest country in the world, because of our democratic institutions, and our founders' grasp upon our rights is secure, because they wrote the right laws, but right now we don't believe in our fundamental rights, so they are being protected in spite of...

In 2012, he wasn't living in the world where Australian and Kiwi style confiscation of AR-type semiautos was within the Overton window. It hadn't got there yet in 2012, they were talking about magazine capacity restrictions. When he got into "The gun culture", "the Tennessee culture". "If I...

So typical. Like almost everywhere else in this country except Texas, the cities are populated by Democrats. They're stuffed with them. And they tell us, living in the exurbs and rural, how we should have laws. Like they know.

Don't be an idiot! That's like me saying Paul was a Catholic. It's BEGGING THE QUESTION. Just tell me which one it is, if you get around to it---or any of you Dispensationalists, just anyone, just chime in and let us all know. One of the covenants Paul means in Gal4:24 ("THE TWO COVENANTS"...

When are we going to annex that great big parcel of land (with only a tenth of our population)?

It's only a lie if Dispensationalism is true. You certainly don't demonstrate its truth, so this is all just begging the question. NO ONE AGREES until like 1800. Not at all. The language in Hebrews 12:22-24 and the language in Galatians 4 is connected through "heavenly Jerusalem" and...

This consists largely in agreeing with the Niceno-Constantinopolitan and Apostles' creeds, going to Mass once a week, and maintaining full communion with the Church (which means avoid grave matter). It's really easy. It's not nothing, but it is an easy yoke and a light burden, just as the Lord...

When we go to Mass, we are participating in the heavenly Mass, the eternal Mass. We get a taste of heaven, every week! Happy Easter Chrysostom.

That's always entirely possible, really for any of us. The trouble with Dispensationalism---well, it is manifold---but here, the trouble is that no one in history ever had the same idea as you, not a single soul, until like 1800. I know you'll say that this is a logical fallacy, to even...

And how many of these people are wankers, again? We know President Trump's a wanker, Falwell Jr., all the homosexuals wank, all sexually criminal Catholic priests probably wank for that matter. You seem to have it in for wankers, except when I suggest it to you, you portray me as extreme and...

I searched for nero aureus coin, and clicked on "images" and there are quite a lot of these coins still in existence, you can see very many digital images of very many of them, they're all a little different, but they're all from Nero's lifetime, right from the time that he presided over the...

---I'm sorry. The what? There is no such thing. Just like there's no such thing as "the secular stigma on homosexuality (cf. the title of this the sixth of the threads)"---that's not real either. And there are Catholics, and then there are all the other Protestant Christian traditions...

Huh. I wonder if the gun was loaded with alternating "soft recoil" shells, followed by slugs (those are the hardest kicking shotshells). Each ladies' second shot seemed to kick far harder, and seemed to surprise them.

That's nice. Argument from silence and all. 22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of...

he is the head of the body, the church

"Jer 31:31-33 KJV Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant ONLY with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah ONLY: (32) Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of...
