Originally posted by JSherlock Well, fuck me. Now I know why there's all these ads at bus stops for Planned Parenthood showing an unhappy black girl. That's truly sickening. When will people get over the idea that there's master/lower races? Quoted for sarcasm. But in answer to your question, peopl...

Ditto, etc.

Well, first off, it would be more accurate, I think, to say that atheists tend to believe in the provable; that which is empirically observable and/or provable. That's similar, but not the same as, "science". You assert that science cannot "describe" morals, but that's not really...

It's a hypothetical situation; the goal is to resolv...

I think I lost most of my respect for the author at: you've walked away from the one single baseline every remotely moral person has ever agreed on: the value of human life. And I know we all agree on that, because we can all think of people we could've otherwise stabbed and gotten away with it. Ple...

Originally posted by Angelique I'm a member of the very same group you claim is victim of a sexist policy. If I say I'm not being oppressed, who is anyone else to tell me I am? Forgive me for my rudeness and presumptuousness. I was unaware that you had been elected to speak on behalf of all Catholi...
