    Why did Barrack Obama completely ignore Kentucky?

    He was so far behind there there was no need.

    Is the Annie Leibovitz Photo of Miley Cyrus Immoral?

    No, nothing's wrong with it.

    Republicans are sitting in the cat bird seat!

    Bush's approval ratings have exceeded Truman's in being consistently lower than any other President's now.

    Republicans are sitting in the cat bird seat!

    There's more to "class" than money. For instance what 'class" would you say Britney Spears is in? Hint: the one we're born into stays with us. See Class: A Guide Through The American Status system by Paul Fussell .

    Republicans are sitting in the cat bird seat!

    And McCain is........:confused: BTW by established measures of class the Clintons are Upper-Middle Class but I'd say so generally only based on Bill's Ex-President status. The fact he's from Arkansaw dropped 'em down to middle class while he was in office.

    Republicans are sitting in the cat bird seat!

    Yes and no. However, not all Wars are just, either. Indeed it is. But not quite as ignorant as the idea that if your income is less than $100K a year it's in your interests to vote Republican. Tell that to all the right-wingers who whined about Clinton. Then how did George W. Bush do it?

    Republicans are sitting in the cat bird seat!

    The problem with Rev. Rick's analysis is it ignores two important issues the Republicans are on the wrong side of: the war and the economy.

    Contradiction in Adam and Eve?

    The world is not black and white; neither is scripture.

    Contradiction in Adam and Eve?

    It's certainly not a simple dichotomy. Studying scripture or any ancient text is a complex process. Are you familiar at all with "The Jesus Seminar"? It is an annual scholarly gathering of the world's foremost experts on the Bible. I believe it would be correct to say that generally none...

    Contradiction in Adam and Eve?

    Define the sides. Are there more than two? I agree completely.

    Contradiction in Adam and Eve?

    Well, read the four Gospels back to back and you'll see beaucoup contradictions. Occasionally you'll see little ads hawking a booklet with a title like "absolute proof Jesus never existed". They're hyping skeptics just like fundamentalists hype Biblical literalism. It's historical record...

    The "T" in LGBT

    I just really have trouble comprehending why it mattered to them. One is tempted to chalk it up to being uninformed only but it seems there's more there.

    The "T" in LGBT

    The Religious Right's response to advances in human progress vis-a-vis sexual orientation is as the thread title suggests to rag on the rights of transgenders/transsexuals and in one particular area: to foment outrage over MTF TS's (Male-to-Female Transsexuals) using public women's rest rooms...

    Contradiction in Adam and Eve?

    This is the typical fundamentalist retort to the notion that the Bible is not to be taken literally(FYI a much more established notion than the one the Bible should be taken literally). It shows nothing but the fact the speaker is uninformed. "Believing the Bible" is begging the question...

    Contradiction in Adam and Eve?

    God does not change. Our perception of God does however. The ancient Hebrews really believed in a testosterone laced tribal god that'd smite their enemies. But of course, the real God, the Architect of the Universe, did not smite the Hebrews foes at all, they did. They just had a primitive...

    IOW you have no argument to offer.

    Contradiction in Adam and Eve?

    The Bible's full of 'em.

    Contradiction in Adam and Eve?

    The legend was certainly not authored (verbally as it was passed along orally before there was written language) to be in any sense taken literally.

    Contradiction in Adam and Eve?

    I'm not.
