  the recent charade of scholar's regression brought laughs and good memories to the minds of jwd.

  though shortlived, threads like that reminded me of jwd's best moments.

  Isn't that the very definition of "troll"?

  Because you yearn for attention?

  Yes on both would be the obvious answer.

  the phone rang in the art gallery and i answered.. the voice was a young woman's.. one of her two parrots had died rather suddenly.. she wanted a colorful frame for the memorial portrait.

  could we accomodate her?.

  the remaining bird was sulking.. i suggested parrots without partners.. i don't where my tasteless jokes come from.

  The account of Ananias and Sapphira at Acts 5 categorically proves the Bible is not inerrant

  by yadda yadda 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  go and read it again at acts 5: 11. ananias and sapphira drop dead at peter's feet for "playing false to god/holy spirit" by not giving all of the money to peter that they got from a field they sold.

  ananias and sapphira were christians.

  they wanted to help the poor and so sold one of their possessions, a field, and gave most of the money to peter.

  many researchers taking a different view of pedophiliapedophilia once was thought to stem from psychological influences early in life.

  now, many experts view it as a deep-rooted predisposition that does not change.january 14, 2013|by alan zarembo, los angeles timesas a young boy, paul christiano loved the world of girls the way they danced, how their spindly bodies tumbled in gymnastics.

  Obama's speech writers used the strawman fallacies yesterday

  by moshe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  seems they liked using that fallacy a lot--.

  president obama has an, at times, well-deserved reputation for delivering his speeches well.

  certainly, the president made an impression today when he delivered his second inaugural address calling for a bolder, more expansive government that would be committed increasingly to the principles of liberalism, with characteristic soaring rhetoric.. unfortunately, another characteristic was also in evidence in obama's speech: namely, his tendency to argue against positions that nobody holds (and by extension, to mischaracterize his opponents' views so as to make them easier to argue against).

  Point out the lie? - how about: I will close Gitmo on my very first day as president?
