Re: What Mormons Thought About General Conference

Man, watching a head on collision between political relief and religious belief is just as painful on the right as it is on the left. The cognitive dissonance these folks feel must be unbearable. It's the first step of the Spirit to give them the further light and knowledge that Father promised, wh...

The post, as written, violates UR 4 and FR 2. It can remain in Paradise if you remove the personal attack and change the content so it is not a derail.

Nice Clown Moderating.

Is this how Shades moderated?
Responding to questions, explaining how the rules apply, and being polite when doing so are, to my understanding, consistent with being a clone of Shades.

Re: Thread for discussing climate change

My opinions are mine. My observations are mine. My mistakes and faults and flaws and inconsistencies are mine. I understand many of the stupid damned things that are said on this board better with this clarification. It truly is a we/them forum, where one point of view is claiming to speak for "we"...

Re: The Conspiratorial Clowns

Gadianton, My apologies for moving your opening post. That was a mistake, which Canpakes has corrected. With respect to your other request, Cultellus’s post was moved to Prison because it contained a personal attack. When that happens, subsequent posts that repeat the personal attack are moved as w...

Re: Obama: Open Borders are unsustainable

One can be in favor of giving some illegal immigrants amnesty and not being for open borders. Back in 1986, Reagan signed leglislation granting illegal immigrants amnesty, but he wasn't really for open borders. The immigration system is broken and outdated, and it needs to be updated by Congress. A...

Re: Thread for discussing climate change

He said our civilization is predicated on… You’re misstating what he said. Its a perfectly valid point, especially given that market forces squeeze out profits at the expense of resiliency. Our health care system is a perfect example. It still isn’t equipped to cope with the change from no pandemic...

Re: Thread for discussing climate change

You should take more time to understand a point before flailing around trying to refute it. And that’s what you’ve done twice now — flailed. Just keep telling yourself that stability is irrelevant to a farmer when she is deciding to invest in land, structures, and equipment with payback periods of ...

Re: Thread for discussing climate change

I saw this post thanks to Res Ipsa quoting it in full. In it, absent the promises refutation by Cultellus, Manetho's point stands. I am so glad you do not read my stuff, Chap. And I am so impressed that you have to repeat that you can't read. I love that. I never said I would refute anything. When ...
