Right, right. You're job is to remind us that no one can be saved unless they accept Jesus Christ as their own personal savior. And, surely, that entails asking yourself "what would Jesus do?". In or out of bed. Would Jesus masturbate? Would Jesus watch porn? Would Jesus tolerate homosexu...

Why were you suddenly talking about your private sexual proclivities? I can't recall having asked, and it's certainly none of my business..." :? Well, as a Christian, aren't your sexual propensities the business of God? After all, what if they include child molestation or rape or orgies or pos...

Uh-oh.... It's back: the lag time. Or is it just me? Also, on three occasions this morning I've encountered this: 500 Internal Server Error Just for the record... Over at ILP, my quotes thread has garnered about 50 views in the past week. Here, it has garnered nearly 10,000 views. Bots? How about co...

Unlike some here, I do not argue there is no God. How on Earth could I possibly know that? If you grew up in a household that didn't have particularly religious beliefs and grew up watching Carl Sagan on Cosmos, you might think differently. That's exactly my point, though. At birth, we are "th...

Muriel Barbery from The Elegance of the Hedgehog I thought: pity the poor in spirit who know neither the enchantment nor the beauty of language. Do they know that? People aim for the stars, and they end up like goldfish in a bowl. I wonder if it wouldn't be simpler just to teach children right from...

American Beauty Frank: How come these faggots always have to rub it in your face? How can they be so shameless? Ricky: That’s the whole thing, Dad.

From my frame of mind, however, each of us as individuals, given the arguments I make in my signature threads, comes to acquire a uniquely personal [subjective] assessment of morality over the course of ...

That's moral relativism. Not if your own One True Path to Enlightenment revolves around dialectical materialism. And the thing about "political economy" is that Marx and Engels insisted that their own historical assessment was...scientific? They went all the way back to nomadic, slash and...
