    Starving Gazans to death - is that also not genocide?

    Pressure On Biden To Pardon Trump

    I remember reading something about the office of the president getting more and more powerful over the years. Great if you support the guy running things. The majority who put them there tend to look the other way.

    Pressure On Biden To Pardon Trump

    That's the problem with only two parties. Or actually a problem with American voters. All of the eggs have to fit into one of two baskets.

    Pressure On Biden To Pardon Trump

    They limit the powers of the president. Congress can remove the president from office which would mean no more pardons.

    Pressure On Biden To Pardon Trump

    That's kind of built into the idea of Presidents being able to pardon folks. The check and balance on this is the other two branches of the Federal government.

    Pressure On Biden To Pardon Trump

    The DOJ looking for ways to drop the charges anyway. Justice Department weighs how to drop charges against President-elect Donald Trump: source A pardon I suppose would just amount to a political gesture. A pardon only deals with the federal charges. Though I'd suppose any state charges...

    Physics/Relativity Question

    What I've read is that acceleration causes time dilation... ok. When the acceleration ends, i.e. we've reached a constant state of velocity, the time dilation caused by the acceleration itself stops. However, mass is relative to velocity. So the difference in velocity leaves the object to which...

    On the nature of intellect

    Not what I implied. Human knowledge obviously can't exist without the human mind. However we can observe the knowledge possessed by other species through their behavior. We can't with absolute certainty. Our conscious human knowledge is an interpretation of reality. It's accurate enough to...

    Pollyanna syndrome and determinism

    I wonder how close this is to the idea that God has a plan for you. I went through a large part of my life with the idea that whatever happen, there was some purpose behind it. It worked for as long as I held it. Yes a reasonable fear is probably more sensible, however I never ran into any...

    On the nature of intellect

    We discovered them after we invented the shapes. Without the shapes being first invented there'd be no mathematical truths. We could always invent other shapes which would come along with their own set of mathematical truths. Being these things are not having a material existence outside of...

    Past a Plethora of Trump...

    The Wu-Tang Clan's song "C.R.E.A.M." is an acronym for "Cash Rules Everything Around Me".

    One reason I wouldn't want to be all knowing.

    It would certainly be boring. That's why I figure if there was a God they created us. For entertainment.

    Well, ok fine. The joy of annoying another fellow human being. :thumbsup:

    I live about 40 minutes from Trump, so local support I suppose.

    Atheists: does God exist?

    I always assumed it to be defined by the person doing the talking, or posting in this case. Every post, a different God. Not my job to define God for you. If I wanted God to exist, it'd be easy to create a definition I am comfortable with. However, I don't really care if a God exists. It is...
