Emancipation Proclamation:..

Did not free slaves throughout the USA, you stupid knob swallower.

No matter how hard you stomp your fat lying and ignorant feet.

You are a plastic moron.

You are the dumb phuque knobber who has his history (among other things) wrong: the Emancipation Proclamation did not end slavery (the owning of human beings) in the USA, seems to me if you are wrong you should take a week off. You could be a a citizen in the USA and own slaves after the Emancipation Proclamation.

I am sure you will be posting your apology forthwith.

Close enough.

<quoted text>How much of the world population did he influence during his lifetime of being "charming"? I am not at all impressed with Christians who make such claims. I would rather stick to the known facts.
Jesus did not "seduce" any Jews away from the Jewish religion during his time on earth. He preached the Torah. The Torah is the Jewish scriptures. As Christians, we can either be intelligent enough to know that and not argue with those who are not Christian, or we can be fools.
I choose intelligence and honesty.

The fact is he told the Jews of his day that they no longer needed to follow Mosaic Law or adhere to covenant that required all Jewish men to be circumcised. He preached in direct opposition to what the rabbis taught and telling his neighbors that they didn't have to bear the burden of living under so many different rules infuriated Jewish leaders because it lightened the purses on their shoulders. They denied him because of greed, not because they didn't believe whether he was a Messiah or not. If his ideology had made them richer through practice of it, they would have welcomed his sermons and claim to heaven. He preached love and freedom, and the rabbis taught separation and strict adherence to numerous rules [so many rules that people probably couldn't remember them all]. You don't think his message would appeal to the poor and oppressed Jews?

Jackasses like you make me laugh when you run about calling people fools. Your comment just bit you in the ass, moron.

You are quite correct.
William Dembski, of ID fame, had this to say:
"I think at a fundamental level, in terms of what drives me in this is that I think God's glory is being robbed by these naturalistic approaches to biological evolution, creation, the origin of the world, the origin of biological complexity and diversity. When you are attributing the wonders of nature to these mindless material mechanisms, God's glory is getting robbed." He continued, "And so there is a cultural war here. Ultimately I want to see God get the credit for what he's done -- and he's not getting it."
At the Fellowship Baptist Church (in Waco, TX) Sunday, March 7, 2004. Dembski answering a question about his motivations.

There was an .mp3 of "Billy D." saying it, in his words, however, the file isn't hosted there any longer.

Buck, tell me it ain't so.
Tell me this is all made up.
Or maybe taken out of context.
Or maybe he just had to say what he had to say to these folks.
Or maybe that's what he used to believe until he saw the light.
Or just tell me this isn't your hero, it's another Billy D.

It was mid-colonoscopy that I suddenly understood what my Chinese fortune cookie meant by, "Searching the inner self requires a prepared mind." Were you aware that colonoscopy without a strong sedative is nearly impossible?

No. But now that you mention it, I'm not surprised. That's something to look forward to I guess (I'm overdue for the procedure)... that and I think you get to keep the video.

Yes and Behe says Jesus is the designer you agree with him yes?

Actually, there might be some validity to the Vedic Astrology.
But I'll stick with Behe for now - it's nonsense.
I am always susceptible to evidence. I am a true skeptic. There are only a couple of those in this forum.

Chuck Norris would disagree.

Darwin was embarrassed by th fossil record and admitted that it didn't support evolution. Archaeopteryx, the poster child for evolution, had been descried before 1859

Darwin's careful, meticulous observations of Galapagosian beaks and plumage could hardly have helped him put his brain around something like Archeopteryx. How do you go from a Archeopteryx to a Finch in a mere 6000 years? I wonder how old the people back then thought the Earth was? Or how old Darwin THOUGHT it was?

Buck's son makes a video for dad. Satan made the lie of evolution in the Garden of Eden!

Your comment is irrelevant. Galapagos finches were the result of microevolution.

You may know that the attempt to include Vedic Astrology in the public school curriculum in India was challenged, as was ID here, as an attempt to introduce "creation science" into the schools.
I agree with you though, it's nonsense. Just like Behe's ID.

You could be credible in finding fault, not credible to call it nonsense.

I talked to Lisa Colodney today. Told her the subject of "The Silent Coup" came up on Topix.

She told me about Len Colodney taping a phone conversation with Bob Woodward. He then accused Woodward of this or that to a Washington Post reporter. Woodward said Colodney was lying.

Then Colodney played them the tape. Got his name in a Washington Post headline, and proved Bob Woodward a liar in one shot.

She also told about walking in Len's house during a rainstorm, water dripping off her hair, in a sloppy sweatshirt. Len said, "Come in the den. There's someone I want you to meet."

She walked in. There in an armchair sat G. Gordon Liddy.

The G-man. What an awesome badass. If I were an attorney, he would be my role model.

The fall of the Soviet Union took fifty years and dissolved beginning with the election of Gorbachev, not with Reagan.
It took longer then it should have when Reagan was elected and the transition was rougher.
Here on planet earth.

You are a stupid, lying coward.

The history is settled. Reagan brought them down when he would not give in to Gorbachev's begging to shut down SDI in exchange for concessions on other weapons.

You can't re-write history just because you're a lying liberal coward.

You would rather give a communist credit for what an American president did. You hate America. Why don't you leave?
