A bigot is a prejudiced person who is intolerant of opinions, lifestyles, or identities differing from his or her own. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bigotry Obstinately so. In other words, it needs to be unreasonable. You can find the idea of being a murderer wrong. You can choose to remove them from socie...

I think having a doctorate from a diploma mill is a pretty good indicator of lack of credibliity, which is important to the extent that one must rely on a person's authoritative credibility.

HA!!! See my point. 16 views and not one comment yet we now have another new thread on Mitt and Mormonism started by Rollo! It iseems ok these days to whip a Mormon and to make lots of noise about a Mormon politician. But if we did this to Huckabee I am sure there would be an uproar. Like it or not...

Religious tests for office are explicitly banned by the Constitution.

Just finished watching the documentary online. Assuming that proponents of evolution were misrepresenting statements, taking things out of context, and just generally being unscrupulously partisan, I was quite disappointed (but enlightened) to discover that, indeed, ID is merely a repackaging of cr...

This is pretty funny dude. You gotta love the "everyone's stupid except me" attitude some people have, especially when they're the ones most guilty of idiocy. I'm not addressing your arguments because they are convoluted and make very little sense to normal thinking people. You can't even...

I'm not sure I agree with the notion you've been stating that increased entropy is somehow associated with "complexity". Look up Shannon entropy. Shame on abestosman for being aware of science. Let's go on using the term "complexity" like a new-age hippy uses the term "ener...
