    Richard Dawkins & Atheism

    You can't be serious. Educated, well-read, well-traveled people can come to hold some pretty bizarre conclusions about various topics. Here's proof. Laughable ... especially the part about Jesus inciting the authorities to crucify him so he could fake his resurrection--a calculated move to...

    Is America Doomed?

    That's just beautiful!!!! You're right, I'm the one whose head is screwed on crooked. I really hope that you don't live to regret those words some day. Oh yeah, and I don't really respect police officers, either. LOL!!!!!!! So much for this thread, I guess.

    Richard Dawkins & Atheism

    Not a "complete" one ... :) We're all idiots: some of us are just more idiotic than others. As for Dawkins, he's a brilliant man, a world class debater, and I like a LOT of what he has to say about politics. But when he goes off on religion, I couldn't disagree with him more. Then when he...

    Is America Doomed?

    Since you brought up some really big pet peeves of mine, I can't help myself ... Yeah, how about our stupid criminal justice system?! The fascist pigs should have just let that guy go off and die with dignity instead of hunting him down like an animal. What an absolutely thankless job...

    Roundtable (10 May)

    Great show! One period stood out, when the discussion turned to crop circles. When one of the guests (sorry, many of the names are still not sticking in my long-term memory) said something to the effect that, even if crop circles are hoaxed, the hoaxers are still responding to paranormal...

    Is America Doomed?

    Great post! I would just add that the most important thing we have that sets us apart, and I think your post alludes to this, is The Constitution. Public officials, soldiers, they all swear an oath to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Such oaths mean...

    Is America Doomed?

    And, correct me if I'm wrong, but Einstein was referring to the nationalistic war factories that those men in my previous posts fought and died to defeat. Or, are we saying America is the moral equivalent of Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, Fascist Italy, and then the absolutely off-the-charts...

    Is America Doomed?

    The world is a very small place. No matter where you flee to, you'll never totally escape the barbarians. They will always be in the forests considering different strategies for storming the gates of your islands of safety and security, and island hopping is no way to live. At some point, you've...

    May 3rd - Peter Robbins

    This was a truly great show! I thoroughly enjoyed it, although I'm not a total RFI believer. I'm sure this will draw some flack: feel free to blast away ... I agree with Gene and David, that they actually went easy on Mr. Robbins. I'd like to hear Mr. Robbins' thoughts on really encouraging...

    Credible vs. Clown list needed

    Damn it!!! I'm still just a tender foot when it comes to all of this stuff, and the thing that has frustrated me more than anything else during this short journey of mine is that, as soon as I come across someone whom I think I can finally let down my guard with and trust in, shortly...

    Are You A Terrorist?

    Good points, both. I don't necessarily have a problem with DHS investigating and cataloging information on the host of ideological groups that inhabit this country. And I agree that the key words in almost every definition include, "members have been known to advocate or engage in criminal...

    The Nazi UFO Conspiracy.

    I realize this is quite an old thread, but ... This entire proposal is ludicrous on its face. There isn't a shred of evidence that Nazi saucers existed, but of course that never settles anything. So, for what these arguments are worth ... First of all, Germany's overwhelming air power was...

    Star Trek Apartment.

    YES!!!! That was a hilarious sketch!!!! Thanks for jogging my memory to bring that one back up. Shatner can make you laugh just by looking at him. But in all seriousness, I truly believe there's someone for everyone out there: even for Trek geeks. You just have to be patient and be open as...

    Conspiratorial Belief System- Where does it stop?

    I used to get myself all wound up about things, as you seem to be. You can really ruin your life spending all of your time popping Tums and trying to wade through the ocean of noise that surrounds us. Just stick to what you know is right, teach your kids to do the same, certainly get involved...

    Ufology's best argument

    Man are you right about that!!!!! Society's GOT to get moving on environmental issues!!!!! LOL!!!! *(Deep breath in ....) :)

    Ufology's best argument

    About how many more billions of years do we have left to develop the technology to evacuate Earth? We've been here for such a short period of time, it's truly mind-boggling to try to imagine what the human race/Earth will be like even in another 200,000 years!

    April 12th Show

    Alright, I'll just crawl back under my church pew now and leave you true thinkers all alone. What does it mean to be alive? Nobody knows ....

    April 12th Show

    I have a strong feeling I'm going to regret getting involved in this, but ... What you're doing here is taking a term--in this case "alive"--and arbitrarily assigning a definition to it while neither clearly detailing and defending the reasoning behind your inclusions of the specific...

    Gene, you were in my home town?!

    ... Main Street, and of course here's the "Dynamic Duo" of Shaver and Palmer. Again, thanks SO much for this interview!!!! It's hard to express how this has stirred me today! If I come across anything else, I'll post it here. Have a GREAT night!!!!!!
