The Constitution is the highest law of the land. Ignoring that is no different than Congress enforcing laws, despite not their role to do so
Has it ever occurred that the law of the land, regardless of its altitude, could be wrong?
Nope. Free speech, privacy, self-defense, fair trial, etc is far from wrong. The U.K can learn a thing or two from the U.S

For Reagan, you forgot to add the fact he armed and supplied our enemies
lolno

Reagan sent supplies to the Mujahideen who were people against the invasion of the Soviets. After Russia left, the Mujahideen set up a legi and sovereign government called the Islamic State of Afghanistan. After this, extremists rose up and are what we know as the Taliban. They ousted the real government and set up a non-recognized governemtn



ohai
Iraq was friendly to the U.S government during that time, especially since the Iran-Iraq War had post-revolutionary Iran fighting.

Except I'm not refusing to understand. Comparing something in the Constitution to something not is not even a logical concept.
It's like you think the Constitution is infallible, by virtue of being the constitution.

Really, I feel sorry for your students
Why are you refusing to understand that people can prioritise things differently to you? Max might rank science-denial up there with Constitution-denial.

Except I'm not refusing to understand. Comparing something in the Constitution to something not is not even a logical concept. Read the rest of my statement though  "If he had instead said a person that supports legalization of abortions, then I'd still support him despite my  personal opinion against state-sponsored abortion"

Except Door never stated Constitutionalism isn't assumed
Except he quite implicitly did when he said this person wants a total ban on guns. You still haven't given a clear answer.

Would you, or would you not, support an individual who agreed with absolutely everything you say except on the issue of guns, wherein they want a total ban?
No
So now you understand how I feel about Ron Paul. We took the long way to get there, but we got there.

No, because that is unconstitutional.

Comparing a Constitutional right to a concept not defined in the Constitution is, as said, comparing apples to oranges. If he had instead said a person that supports legalization of abortions, then I'd still support him despite me personal opinion against state-sponsored abortion

America has a Constitution that guarantees gun ownership

Constitutionalism isn't assumed.

The point isn't whether or not they end up getting into office, it's about this person's opinions. Let's assume they aren't even running for office.

And evolution is divided between mico and macro
macro and micro evolution is bullshit made up by the creationist community. Evolution is evolution.
lolno

I think that fedora is tight on your head. It's reducing the blood flow to your brain

>mfw gun ownership is a constitutional right
You're either dodging the question or misunderstanding him. Constitutionalism isn't assumed.

Answer the question properly.
Not dodging and not misunderstanding. I live in America. Door lives in America. I can only vote for candidates that run in America. America has a Constitution that guarantees gun ownership

You have got natural selection and evolution exactly backwards.

We can, and have, observed alterations and genetic similarities between species. We have observed evolution which led us to develop the theory of natural selection. What you're talking about is just survival of the fittest, which is facile.

There'd be no point to natural selection if it didn't facilitate the process of evolution. By accepting natural selection, that is where you admit all species are essentially related to each other (which is pretty much beyond doubt).
No, I don't have it backwards. I'm in Biology this semester and I know damn well enough which is which

Natural selection is in many parts survival of the fittest. My example perfectly displayed such. And evolution is divided between mico and macro. We have not observed macro, but have observed micro which is known as adaptation; take the moths in Britain that changed.

Natural selection just means selection of animals based on their dominance and strength. That in no way proves evolution, macro to be specific, because it's the idea all living things have descended from one common ancestor

It changes my view of them, but I can certainly still enjoy their work.
Mostly the same for me. I think it's dumb that Jason Lee is a big scientologist, but it doesn't stop me from loving My Name is Earl.
It's certainly not as important with actors, and even less so with musicians (unless they're religious).

The only real issue I have with a public figure's political views is when they're writers or journalists.
when the dude is a creationist.

>not supporting a person because of one, minuscule belief

Would you support someone who lined up with everything you believe in, but wanted a total ban on all firearms?
>mfw gun ownership is a constitutional right

Door, you've defined the concept of comparing apples to oranges

3403
I'm not having this discussion again. If you haven't realized that evolution fucking happens by now, there's no hope. There's nothing I can do to convince you.
Prove to me with unreasonable doubt and proof all life forms are descended from one or several common ancestors that were present on early earth, three to four billion years ago
No.
Then I won't accept evolution as 100% fact

Care to explain what is funny? Look up evolution; it's a theory. Somebody needs to take science again it seems
First off, evolution is the observation; natural selection is the theory.

Secondly, do you even know what a theory is? You're treating it as a synonym for "hypothesis". The theory of evolution via natural selection is about as solid as you'll find.

Lol no. Evolution and natural selection are different. Creationists, such as myself, do accept natural selection because that is observable. A dog that gives birth to a litter of puppies and one puppy is weak and can't feed and so it dies, that's natural selection in motion on a day-to-day basis

Evolution is far different than natural selection as it's the theory that living things (species) are related to one another through common ancestry from earlier forms that differed from them. Darwin called this “descent with modification,” and it is still the best definition of evolution we can use, especially with members of the general public and with young learners

I know what a theory is. A theory is essentially a hypothesis that has gone through experimentation is a generally agreed consensus of other scientists. A hypothesis is a statement of a possible explanation for some natural phenomenon

What does the url say? Theory

Theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world. Key word, explanation. Many theories over the years have been disproved. We don't teach the geocentric theory because we have confirmed through space exploration, telescopes, and astronomy that the heliocentric theory is correct

Paul holds a M.D from Duke University School of Medicine and a B.S from Gettysburg College. He's far more educated than many other people

lol wut?

The only saving grace for Abrams is he directed/produced two of my favorite shows (Lost and Revolution) but I'm also worried the movie will feel too much like a tv show

Hey maybe the movie will start out with the Jedi being overrun so they send someone to the past to change the future.

Like Star Trek.
yiff in hell

No, but I have far more respect for celebrities that don't spew generic CNN and MSNBC bullshit. I have high respect for Brad Pitt because he's very pro-gun
