Hey Whistler, I'd dabble in post-impressionist night sketches of your mom.

Is that a homemade Chapman Stick? Impressive.

All other things being equal, if Hitler, Idi Amin, etc. were ordinary people whom I happened to meet in a coffee shop or whatever? Sure. Realistically, I would never get near enough to any of them to have a personal conversation. And if I offended them sufficiently, all of them could have me...

"Planet X" should have killed us 20 times over by now. That is one of the most ridiculous conspiracy theories in existence. We're always about a year away from total destruction by a planet that simply is not there. NASA couldn't cover that up. Every hobbyist astronomer with a telescope would...

It was long believed that Pelagius had no extant works, and all we knew of him--as is the case with many ancient heretics--came from his detractors. In the era of the early church, heretical works had a tendency to get themselves destroyed. Apparently there is a handful of Pelagius's works that...

The video about being baptized seems a little ... squishy? Ecumenical? Though the line about leaving behind his sins and picking up some viruses from the Thames was pretty funny. He almost seems like he's saying baptism is an aesthetic experience as much as anything else. Which it isn't. That...

"Anti-Zionism" reveals itself to actually be "anti-Jew" fairly quickly. Just let the activists speak. I'm very glad Twitter isn't real life, because finding overt antisemitism there is a task not unlike finding hay in a haystack. There's a small but vocal community scapegoating Jews again.

...Too ... much ... Montreal Seasoning? I'm not sure that these words go together.

NDP lol

"The Day After," the 1983 ABC TV movie? Maybe explain your point instead of throwing out sentence fragments.

Just to throw a monkey wrench into the works: Here's what Protestia had to say about the Eileen Gray case in 2022. https://protestia.com/2022/03/14/judge-julie-accusing-the-shepherd/ One, I believe Julie Roys engages in yellow journalism, and has a clear bias against John MacArthur and Grace...

As I said earlier in the thread: Since this Ruslan dude gets his information from a single source, which is also Julie Roys, it doesn't change my opinion.

Because the topic at hand is abortion, and whether it is moral to stone women who might be pregnant if it would also kill an innocent unborn human being. Whether men deserve execution as well, just isn't relevant to the topic.

One, pregnancy isn't instantaneous. It can take almost a week for sperm to meet egg. That means if a woman was caught in the act, she wasn't already pregnant. Two, if judgment was swiftly carried out, in all likelihood she still wasn't pregnant, or at least it was still too early for anyone to...

It is the 2006 employee handbook, as discussed in 2012. I had nothing to say about the current handbook at the time, as my time machine was in the shop.

I did. I'm afraid I don't grasp what that has to do with this thread, however.

If I was a lawmaker, I would support any just law that resulted in fewer abortions than the previous law. I don't support rape or incest exceptions on general principle, but if they made the difference between some restriction and no restriction, then I'll tolerate them. And then I'll work...

No, Trump's no RINO. As I said yesterday, no one in Arizona is asking for a compromise on abortion yet, but he's offering one anyway. That's not a RINO, that's a dyed-in-the-wool Republican...

Heck no. A decade ago, Lila Rose posed as a 14-year-old prostitute and visited a Planned Parenthood with her "pimp" and a hidden camera. They basically ignored the fact that she was underage and being trafficked for sex. Abortionists insist they are providing a medical service, but they also...

This is an application of the ethical principle of double effect, which posits that it is permissible to cause an unintended harm in order to prevent another, even if the unintended harm would not be permissible otherwise, and if the intent is not to cause the unintended harm but to prevent the...
