He was a Christian. :) The most salient thing in the book for me is telling the murder from the murderer's perspective.

Hatch a plan.

Do you think that successful people are successful because they wish harder than the rest of us or because they hatch a plan?

Did no one live there? Did we not annex it? Is it not a full state? I'd be happy to annex North Korea compared to what's happening over there.

Most of them. They're still ongoing. Lots.

You do recall that the United States began as 13 states and now it's 50 right? Had to have happened somehow. I'm just suggesting 'dust off' the process. I think Hawaii was the last one to join the Union, before that Alaska. They're both integrated into our Union even though they're not...

No. I'm talking peace as in the absence of MAD. I've seen Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees physically fighting on a baseball field over a game of baseball. But there weren't even knives or bows-and-arrows involved in that conflict, let alone 50 MT H-bombs. Smirk. :)

Here's three medical doctors' idea to solve the threat of nuclear MAD: https://edition.cnn.com/2022/03/17/opinions/nuclear-war-weapons-abolition-helfand-levy-bivens/index.html Basically, "ban" nukes. Gun control writ large. Typical MD thinking. smh.

Agreed in principle and disagreed that this idea is naive. What's naive is to think we can keep whistling past the graveyard when it comes to nuclear weapons, climate change, and a potential looming bolide impact. Climate change is already happening, we're way closer all of a sudden to nuclear...

How do you contain all that optimism? :D The short answer is to repeat what I've told you before. It would have to 'start small' and slow and only with polities (nations) who are actually interested in uniting, not through force. I never said through force. I never implied it. You have...

Maybe far more recently than that, for like 150 days.

Yes.

We're talking about two different categories of things. One category is those ethical matters that are moral matters, and the other category is the rest of the ethical matters that are not moral matters, but they are still ethical matters. Like smoking and exercise, but also every other thing...

But logically, all declarative indicative propositions are binary with regard to truth. Agreed.

Why don't you think that all the water would still be around somewhere after a global Flood?

I see the world ocean as evidence that water once covered the entire planet, because it currently still covers 80% of it even today.

You're just using them synonymously. Nikolai and I aren't using them synonymously.

Yeah. Agreed. In other words, it's not the Bible, it's Christ Himself.

What if they are preaching hate without informed consent? Can't your brothers and sisters and full intersex siblings make mistakes? No grace. Why are you posting in this thread? Aren't you 'in' the politics of this world, in this thread? I never said Mosaic law, nor did I mean Mosaic law...

Because of the people who apparently have lived in Africa and in the Americas for over 6000 years. Hey come on. I believe in a literal six day creation.
