You only think your view is realistic because you haven't studied enough history. The Shrike Send a noteboard - 06/08/2023 04:04:34 PM

And you only think I am optimistic because I am not myopic.

BTW, Belief in a god/the gods/no gods is not something one needs to unify a population.

Seriously, read up on late 19th century US history. It will make you feel better about early 21st century US events.

I'm curious as to your point in posting this. damookster - 04/08/2023 03:17:48 AM 964 Views
The point is that these uneducated dumbass race-baiters dare to lecture us TyrReborn - 04/08/2023 05:33:36 PM 785 Views

Not only is this statistically incorrect, it's historically incorrect. Ghavrel - 08/08/2023 11:35:42 PM 892 Views
Sigh, I understand that it's hard to grasp these days, with our medical miracles, TyrReborn - 14/08/2023 05:52:01 PM 823 Views
Disease is counted as part of wartime casualties. Ghavrel - 14/08/2023 08:17:53 PM 801 Views
And Covid killed 1000000 Americans lol TyrReborn - 14/08/2023 09:49:02 PM 902 Views
You didn't cherry pick anything. You just decided that the consensus of experts is incorrect. Ghavrel - 14/08/2023 11:37:05 PM 897 Views
Died of =/= died from, and died during =/= killed TyrReborn - 17/08/2023 04:58:08 PM 893 Views
I don't think so Tom - 07/08/2023 01:54:05 PM 848 Views
These facts would cause you to be denounced as a "putinite fascist"... TyrReborn - 07/08/2023 05:45:05 PM 796 Views
Well, of course it's going to pass Tom - 07/08/2023 06:55:12 PM 912 Views
Tom, you are being far too reasonable. That doesn’t fly in 2023! *NM* damookster - 08/08/2023 12:22:49 AM 387 Views
He is, which is why, I think, he is wrong. *NM* TyrReborn - 08/08/2023 10:18:32 PM 400 Views
I just can't buy that the political and academic class will give up their grip so easily. TyrReborn - 08/08/2023 05:49:58 PM 787 Views
Academics have been pro Marxism for over 100 years. It's nothing new. *NM* damookster - 08/08/2023 05:59:55 PM 401 Views
Maybe. But they've never been this spiteful or spoiled before. TyrReborn - 09/08/2023 01:29:30 PM 762 Views
No, they only recruited students to spy for the Soviets *NM* damookster - 14/08/2023 06:18:58 PM 378 Views
Yes. They do that now, too. Except it's the Chinese. *NM* TyrReborn - 14/08/2023 09:51:37 PM 381 Views
Do you have sources for that 'far more conservative and far more religious' claim? Legolas - 09/08/2023 07:35:50 PM 833 Views
In regards to more conservative, The Shrike - 09/08/2023 08:35:03 PM 873 Views
You see all this fury because a random dude on the internet calls a dude a dude TyrReborn - 17/08/2023 03:31:00 PM 773 Views
I side with Greg and Tom in this discussion. damookster - 08/08/2023 05:57:54 PM 813 Views
I don't suppose linking medical articles is going to help too much here, but... Ghavrel - 08/08/2023 11:28:05 PM 837 Views
Elizabeth, you know I have a non binary grandchild. damookster - 09/08/2023 01:22:32 AM 919 Views
Yeah, I know, I just think that the statistics are dangerous. Ghavrel - 09/08/2023 04:36:40 AM 780 Views
Respectfully, do you truly believe this? TyrReborn - 09/08/2023 05:42:31 PM 798 Views
I'll bite... Legolas - 09/08/2023 06:39:46 PM 796 Views
Thanks. <3 *NM* Ghavrel - 09/08/2023 08:27:13 PM 379 Views
Your thoughts AgentApple - 11/08/2023 04:14:37 PM 769 Views
Yes, that's true. Legolas - 11/08/2023 06:11:49 PM 828 Views
Re: Yes, that's true. AgentApple - 12/08/2023 04:25:28 PM 773 Views
The issue itself isn't necessarily - the way it's being used, however, is. Legolas - 14/08/2023 05:44:35 PM 792 Views
This is not bait, I am legitimately trying to understand. And if I understand correctly... TyrReborn - 11/08/2023 05:17:02 PM 979 Views
As I said, it wasn't intended as perfect analogy - it's about how much say should children have. Legolas - 11/08/2023 06:44:33 PM 814 Views
No, seriously, only the last one was intended as parody. And I'd like an explanation. TyrReborn - 14/08/2023 05:43:37 PM 791 Views
There aren't a lot of people committing suicide over their teeth coming in. Ghavrel - 14/08/2023 08:21:29 PM 787 Views
Indeed. TyrReborn - 14/08/2023 09:50:53 PM 750 Views
You aren't mentally ill because of your views. You're just an asshole. Ghavrel - 14/08/2023 11:35:13 PM 789 Views
Re: No, seriously, only the last one was intended as parody. And I'd like an explanation. Legolas - 15/08/2023 04:14:57 PM 844 Views
See, you're willing to discuss, instead of insult. Others on this board might take note. TyrReborn - 17/08/2023 05:18:39 PM 792 Views
Yeah, well, I have the luxury of an outsider's position... Legolas - 23/08/2023 11:47:24 PM 835 Views

Fun facts Vodalus - 26/08/2023 06:22:57 AM 878 Views
There's some evidence that hormonal changes in utero are related to transgenderism. *NM* Ghavrel - 26/08/2023 11:26:21 PM 381 Views
Naturally occurring or iatrogenic? *NM* Vodalus - 26/08/2023 11:37:06 PM 392 Views
The studies are about naturally occuring variance, but that doesn't rule out other causes. *NM* Ghavrel - 28/08/2023 12:03:16 AM 458 Views
Not really "fun" so much as "a sad reality of biology", but yes. TyrReborn - 27/08/2023 09:42:14 PM 803 Views
Imagine if you had the same attitude towards trans people. Ghavrel - 28/08/2023 12:02:34 AM 769 Views
I may be no endocrinologist, but I at least understand simple biology. XY =/= XX =/= XXY TyrReborn - 28/08/2023 05:40:14 PM 748 Views
One can be an adult trans person and not support mutilation of children. *NM* damookster - 28/08/2023 07:49:32 PM 382 Views
Fair enough. I have some measure of respect for "Caitlyn" Jenner. You do you homie. *NM* TyrReborn - 29/08/2023 04:54:13 AM 366 Views
Simple is definitely true. Shame you never learned biology past what you were taught in high school. Ghavrel - 28/08/2023 11:21:38 PM 762 Views
Right, cause we're "butterflies" TyrReborn - 29/08/2023 04:57:20 AM 769 Views
I go to mass more than you. *NM* Ghavrel - 29/08/2023 09:58:09 AM 384 Views
Wow, really? And you still mutilated your body and told God that He was wrong about you? TyrReborn - 31/08/2023 05:44:32 PM 864 Views
I must say, The Shrike - 31/08/2023 07:04:47 PM 1003 Views
Love is being true. Love is being honest. Love is God. TyrReborn - 31/08/2023 07:52:59 PM 786 Views
I appreciate that a great deal. Thank you. I think very highly of you, too. *NM* Ghavrel - 01/09/2023 04:44:58 AM 459 Views
Really went off the deep end there huh... Legolas - 31/08/2023 10:39:02 PM 779 Views
At least my beliefs can't be disproven by a $40 test at Wal-Mart. TyrReborn - 02/09/2023 03:40:43 PM 766 Views
It's ok. Many of us are quite sad for you too. The Shrike - 29/08/2023 11:10:32 AM 799 Views
I couldn't care less what unbelievers think. You'll meet the Truth, one day. TyrReborn - 31/08/2023 05:45:31 PM 751 Views
No such thing as damnation, but thanks. The Shrike - 31/08/2023 06:55:23 PM 785 Views
Then nothing more needs to be said. See who support your lies, Ghav? They literally deny Love. *NM* TyrReborn - 31/08/2023 07:54:23 PM 452 Views
He understands love a lot better than you do. *NM* Ghavrel - 01/09/2023 04:46:14 AM 378 Views
Hah! I knew you didn't worship God. Thanks for admitting it. *NM* TyrReborn - 02/09/2023 03:38:43 PM 447 Views
You're simply acting deranged at this point. Ghavrel - 03/09/2023 01:13:20 AM 885 Views
I hope you don't call yourselves Christian. TyrReborn - 03/09/2023 04:11:06 AM 731 Views
Of course I'm Christian. I confess the faith of the apostles and of the councils. Ghavrel - 03/09/2023 11:41:56 AM 772 Views
Would you castrate Michelangelo's David? TyrReborn - 03/09/2023 09:03:07 PM 767 Views

It is not, and I am not. TyrReborn - 03/09/2023 09:06:48 PM 784 Views
You absolutely are damookster - 03/09/2023 09:27:00 PM 781 Views

Bro, I'm not worried about your immortal soul. damookster - 03/09/2023 11:35:41 PM 793 Views
I get that. But Ghav, supposedly, is. TyrReborn - 04/09/2023 12:09:55 AM 789 Views
You’ve expressed some pretty odious and ugly sentiments. Vodalus - 03/09/2023 10:07:51 PM 771 Views
Yeah, I'm definitely an outsider, and so are you. Legolas - 28/08/2023 07:49:48 PM 780 Views

Most of us don't really like "the gays," either. And referring to people as "blacks" is offensive. *NM* Ghavrel - 13/08/2023 12:34:32 AM 371 Views
