Re: The Court Just Sealed Everyone’s Fate, Including Its Own
Read what I wrote. You are repeatedly misstating my claim, and I know you’re smart enough to know that. My objection is to your description of the United States as “not a democracy.” I don’t understand why you are hiding behind a straw man instead of addressing my actual claim. It's not a "direct d...

Re: The Court Just Sealed Everyone’s Fate, Including Its Own
Non responsive. Move to strike. You didn't ask a question. I did. Motion denied. Move for a more definite statement. How does calling the United States a Constitutional Republic being used to take power from the people? Read what I wrote. You are repeatedly misstating my claim, and I know you’re sm...

Re: The Court Just Sealed Everyone’s Fate, Including Its Own
Please read what I wrote. The problem is not with the description “constitutional republic” — it is with your claim that the US is not a democracy. That’s patently false. And it’s currently being used as a rationalization to take power from the people. I don’t know why you insist on perpetrating a ...

Re: The Court Just Sealed Everyone’s Fate, Including Its Own
So, you link to an article on some website written by an English major? I have no idea what you are trying to do, but your statement that America is not a democracy is false and misleading. https://legaldictionary.net/constitutional-republic/ https://constitutionus.com/democracy/is-the-united-state...

"backlash over 31-year age gap" https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/martin-freeman-breaks-silence-backlash-194002492.html To put things in context, Ortega is 21 years old, and the character she plays is an 18 year old University student.

Re: Lars Nielsen's "How the Book of Mormon Came to Pass"
Thanks for the review, Reverend. I think I'll give it a pass. The take home may be that whatever makes a person a "true believer" persists through a change of belief. I was struck by the way his desire to be known as a revealer of mysteries has remained constant throughout. I guess he joins the ran...

Re: The Court Just Sealed Everyone’s Fate, Including Its Own
You're equivocating on the term "democracy." We all know that democracy comes in several flavors, only one of which is "direct democracy." You are reacting to the term "democracy" as if Gadianton had said "direct democracy." But you should know better from context. Pretending that "democracy" and "...
