I think that somebody's throwing a tantrum because they're not getting their way. On a side note: my parents are losing their coverage after paying into it for over 40 years because of ObamaCare. Who needs "death panels" when the old will...  [Read More]

Regarding your specific situation, colloquial existential Nihilism seems to me as the only logical conclusion of Atheism. I don't understand how atheists can keep from moving into that ideology. (That's not an insult, it's a genuine question.) From w...  [Read More]

First of all, there's no reason for this to be locked. This is the section of the forum for this kind of stuff! Second, I recently watched a good video which may show you that you can be more comfortable with the beliefs you have rather than the one...  [Read More]

It seems to me that increasing gun ownership restrictions makes a lot more sense for preventing suicides/crimes of passion than it does to prevent rampages. I don't think it's too reasonable to base any laws on things which are so insignificant in t...  [Read More]

To be honest I doubt they even thought about the implications of having weapons. It really isn't that big of a deal here. If someone I knew was packing, I'd ask why-- but if they said just because they could, I wouldn't bat an eye, and death threats...  [Read More]

Regarding your question, I'm not sure how much sense it makes to separate Jesus from the Gospel narrative, or from the various traditions which make up Christianity today. There really isn't much of a "Christianity" apart from those; after...  [Read More]

I never played them, but they don't look at all appealing. From what I've seen, they look like they're targeted at a much younger playerbase.I'm not sure I would classify them like that. While it is kid-friendly, it's certainly not mindless about it....  [Read More]
