How much time have you faggots wasted on this dumb game, when you could've been doing something productive?
As many minutes as pounds you weigh. So probably like a few months.

I think if I lived there I'd drown in my own sweat.

English summers are bad enough as it is.

No, if you don't like them then don't post in them and they'll fall of the page quicker.

There's no point trying to force some arbitrary definition or limitation on other posters. There's already bans doled out for threads which are incredibly obvious bait.

Why is the fact that he's black even the slightest bit relevant?
It isn't.
Then I'd be interested to know why it's in the title.

also the bartering system would like a word with you. There may not be money, but humans will implent some kind of system.
While I adore Adam Smith, I'm afraid he was wrong when it came to the bartering system.

Well, fuck, I'm glad you picked up on that.

For a second I was concerned I hadn't made my position clear enough.

It'd be incredibly useful if you actually demonstrated the point you're trying to make, and gave us the source for that picture.

You can't believe everything you read on the internet.

Science is built up of theories, not facts.
You can't conflate the two.

Theories are, essentially, facts. The nature of empiricism, however, keeps us - and rightly so - from claiming any theory as absolute. What you mean by 'facts', I presume, are actually just observations. Which, disregarding the fact that they are subject to their own issues of validity, can't even begin to be compared to theories.

Better question: if God loves everyone unconditionally, why even invent a place like Hell?
Who is to say Hell is a place full of despair and torture?
The people who wrote the Bible.
And the Bible has been translated dozens up dozens of times, along with being tweaked *cough*KingJamesversion*cough*
So nobody should actually consider it an authoritative piece of literature?

BEST ANSWER: There is no God.
As far as science is concerned, that's a false claim.

I'm referring to our locked thread yesterday.
The one about the Earth being 6,000-10,000 years old.

Where I said if God was wiped from contemporary existence another one wouldn't be invented in his place and then you posted a response saying I was implying God had been invented (which, I actually didn't) and then I didn't respond to you at all?

I don't see how that reflects my capacity to debate,

Until OP and Meta develop ability to debate properly and actually read posts,
I will not discuss this matter.
I can debate properly. Yeah, I get hotheaded and can be opinionated, but I'm one of the most tolerant people you'll find in terms of differing beliefs and attitudes.

My main concern is that I see no reason to believe in any sort of deity (although deism, to an extent, is mildly justifiable), which you're welcome to challenge me on, but it only becomes a problem if your beliefs are being used to step on people's toes or, especially, if they're being used to legislate.

I don't really know what you're talking about though, since I haven't debated - or even responded to - anybody's posts in this thread.

It certainly, however, shouldn't be funded by the taxpayer. But I'm not knowledgeable enough to pontificate on the American situation.

What do you mean by this?
On the basis of principle and my experience in England, taxpayer funded parties and elections really don't seem necessary. As for a cap on donations? I don't know enough to have an opinion when it comes to the American system.

Sorry, but his handling of stuff like the AIDS crisis pisses me off. I'm sure there are arguably worse that people have done (Buchanan), but in modern history, Reagan falls to the dead bottom for me.
That's fair enough, you seem like a person who focuses mainly on social issues, where economics is more my area. So, I'll concede Reagan was pretty shitty when it came to that.

Personally, there should be no limit, but it should be transparent and shouldn't be done through some sort of middle-man agency.

So. If Bill Gates wants to donate a billion dollars to someone's campaign, that should be fine?

I'm not saying I disagree with you, but without a limit, we are essentially making it so that only the rich, or those with good connections, have a chance in elections.
I'm very disconnected from the issue, to be honest, we don't have things like campaign trails and political ads.

It certainly, however, shouldn't be funded by the taxpayer. But I'm not knowledgeable enough to pontificate on the American situation.

Best: JFK, Monroe
Worst: Bush (Sorry, but the whole WMD bullshit kinda kills him in terms of me ever liking him), Reagan, FDR
Reagan wasn't that bad, to be honest.

A lot of liberals hate him because he's the conservative poster-boy, and a lot of libertarians don't like him because it was essentially "rhetoric masking Statist content", to borrow Rothbard's description.

He certainly wasn't good, but he was fairly moderate in reality.

I'm sympathetic to those who think corporations should be allowed to donate, but fundamentally they aren't people.

I've had worse.

The only reason I don't much like this guy is because he's intentionally combative, and often looks for ways to punish students.
