So you have heresay incorrectly quoted with an interpretation. So you are actually saying that your statement was false A direct quote from an interview is heresay? and if my interpretetion is wrong, then what is YOUR interpretion of what he said? He didnt deny this when the book came out.

To all, Thanks for the thoughtful comments. and they are worth responding to. I promise that i will soon after returning home from this Bus trip.
Could you reference that? I seem to have missed that in all his press conferences That was in Woodward's first Book. When asked :Have you talk to your father before making the decision to invade. His answer was something like: I talked to higher Auithority. that implies, inmo, what i said in the articl
I believe that God speaks thru His Word, for those willing to discern Him. I don't claim to have personal revelations, only pieces of a puzzle that lead me in His ways. Something in the Sciptures His Word will strike me; that is God. When the Scriptures reveal how I am not living in accordance with His Will, then that is God. But
this is why i'm an agnostic witness. Too bad. but at least you are not hearing "things" These people give Him a bad reputation, i tell you.
Recently an amazing theme started to appear in more than few of JU's postings. That is: God speaking with the authors of those postings, or so they claim. It seems that it is very fashionable nowadays to claim that what you say was according to what God told you during a "personal" speaking session with Him. I honestly dont know what that means. In all Go
The democrats and the news media are doing everything to brainwash the average American in to thinking that the war with Iraq was wrong and missmanaged. Many Americans see the parrallel between Iraq and terrorism. Democrats say that this threat is the figment of many imaginations. You certainly are living in your own dream world. The media are not even showing or telling the whole picture. what you see and read (that what you t
The logical and inevitable consequence of a continued uproar over this thing is that any prayer of any sort will be abolished from the proceedings. That is what intolerance leads to. I remember at the start of this congress in Jan, some memebrs of congress objected when one of them used Qura'an for his
the Pope as the supreme interpreter of religious doctrine on Earth....always correct and infallible Good article. Someone had to say it sometime. The strange thing is, the same people who follow that false authority (God never gave anyone that authority or quality) put themselves in judgement, not only over other humans but with the utmost arrogance over other religions as well.
One day, there won't be any trees, hence no more leaves. Two points Eoic: First we dont know that. all indications point to another cycle. how and what, we dont know. Whether you believe in a Creator or not, the conclusion is the same: if you believe, then the Creator will continue to create. I
while others are enraged but they all believe it should not happen in a Christian country and who said that IT IS a "Christian Country"? You? !!!!!!! and since when? Let me see if i understand the situation here: Slavery and discrimination from the Start Elimination(i.e.Genocide)of the natives from day one Legal prostitution at first, then decriminalizing sexual relations between unmarried people later. Settling disputes wit
Don't tell me faith is bad because of the actions of some who profess to have faith. I won't tell you that Islam is bad because some Islamic people have become terrorists. may be you did not, however, many many many here, here on JU including KFC (see comments #11 and #16 above) said, saying and will continue to say that.
What each of us faces is not simply the certain knowledge of our own personal death - but the knowledge of the inevitable death of everything we value. The end of every hope and aspiration: not merely for ourselves but for humankind as a whole. While I agree with most of what you said about the Human condition in general, i disagree with your conclusions. Religion is the coin in which we pay for whatever comfort
What are the excuses NOW to remain in Iraq Col, i am sure you have been following the news. not the obvious and the headlined ones, the ones you get when you read the articles that are buried inside. and also when you read some op-ed articles. that is why i am surprised that you keep asking what is th
She was wrong, because she believed the scientific statements of the time that said that homosexuality is societal and a choice and not genetic or as we're finding out, directly related to the amount of testosterone in the mother's womb and the mother's immune system attacking the foreign substance (XY instead of XX). Objectivism: It's hard. It takes huge effort to understand it fully and to apply it carefully. (just like reason is not automatic, it is a choice)
Spuds McKenzie was the spokes{man} for what company advertising what products? Budweiser What company asked customers: where's the {primary product}? and who asked the question? Burger King, walter Mondale What other famous advertisements can you think of from the same time frame or before it? . Base Ball, Hot Dog and Chevrolet How did I do? <img src="../ima
His father will support him with none of that. He picks on him because of the way he dresses. He picks on him because he's a sissy At this age, a father is more suited to handle him. Talk to your Ex and ask him to be more understanding and guide his son in the right direction with reason and compassion. and talk to your son and tell him that he needs his father and should listen to him but should also talk to his father about wha
Brute military force will take out the insurgencies of the world while conversely bringing more to rally around the cause. well said. But who is listening???? Most think you can fight your way through a mind-field (if there is such an expression) believing that you can deal with it as if it was a mine-field. when you have such a mighty force without the morals guiding and restraining it, it is hard to think that you can a

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed torealize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot You can add, "and his friends stopped listening to him". Great article.
The current administrations uses the terms democracy and freedom as if they were morals They are. The problem is our foreign policies are far from both. Just look at the regimes we support and protect against their people's will.They are numerous to count or list. However, they use these two principles
Very insightful article. it raises many questions worth asking and debating the answers to them on the highest level of the official and intellectual levels in the Nation. As an ordinary citizen, let me try to propose some of the questions and the possible answers. America likes to have the moral high ground, and this we did when were leading the world to freedom and democracy against those dirty commies. But afterwards al
The Queen is not a representative of the United States government Of course she is not. When i say "WE" i meant the USA and Allies in the war on terror. To their own cred
Several days ago, President Bush visited the Islamic Center in Washington DC to attend the Center's celebration of its Fiftieth year of existence. That was a nice gesture on his part. I was not surprised at all. When he appointed Karen Hughes as his "Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy" that told me he realizes what is at stake. He said the following in a co
So now you presume to speak for 1.4 billion Muslims? Or even the majority of them? I didnt presume that. and i am not speaking for anyone but myself. I am just saying what i read and hear in their media indicates that. If you think i am hearing them wrong, i honestly hope you are right. It is
