I used to think the Dillahunty and Dawkins type arguments against the existence of God were valid, and I suppose they are, as long as God means little more to you than the cartoonish papier mache God of mainstream religion. I take a more nuanced God-as-consciousness approach to the problem of...
Yes, that is all common sense. The fact that we need to remind people of that simply highlights how out of touch with reality we've allowed ourselves to become.
Does anyone honestly think that Hamas debates their own moral approach to this war with the same scrutiny that we are doing here? The idea that Hamas would debate amongst themselves how best to mitigate Jewish civilian casualties is incomprehensible.

You are aware that mandatory information reporting is a form of regulation, right?
Are you further aware that the article cites the Canadian government official website, canada.ca, and the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), crtc.gc.ca, as its primary sources...
