[quote who="utemia" reply="21" id="2262993"]It is very hmm let me call it simple minded to just argue that there is no possible way itty bitty little humanity with the all the new technology developed and improved all the time could possibly have any effect on the global ecosystem and thereby mankind can in no way influence the global ecosystem. After all, what is all the technology in the world compared to erupting vulcanos or solar flares? (I would really like to know where the evidence for

[quote who="the_Peoples_Party" reply="9" id="2171084"]All you did was ad hominem, circumstantial ad hominen, and poisoning the well. By the way, those aren't compliments those are fallacies. Those supercomputers that are being used are doing the worst case situation. I probably should remind you of what Dr. Jim Renwick, a top UN IPCC scientist, said about the credibility of those generated computer models. I could easily say that a few of your organizations are

Back in the day my friend had this game where you could select from several different monsters (one of them looked kind of like Stay Puff the Mashmallow Man another might have been a praying mantis and there several others can't remember them maybe a King Kong/Godzilla look-likes) and a destroy the city. No it wasn't Rampage because it had an overview perspective and I know what Rampage is. Also the city maps were bigger than Ramages side scrolling maps like the whole screen and b

[quote who="Leauki" reply="6" id="2262232"]Sandmonkey reports: Der Spiegel just confirmed the rumors, that many of the guys that are cracking down on the demonstrators in the streets are lebanese hezbollah members. According to them, there are 5000 Hezbollah members in Iran that are part of the crackdown on the students. This is a big mistake. You don't bring an arab to beat down a Persian, unless you want the Persians to get really and I mean really pissed off. The hatred that Per

I concur with you AD. I think Obama's greenness (not pertaining to the environment but being a newbie) is showing especially with the whole lack of foreign policy experience. I pray we don't have a foreign policy bombschell like what carter had to deal with or what Bush had to deal with, for I don't think Obama would be able to handle it with the time that Bush had, but maybe would be able handle it with the time Carter was given. Like I stated before he wanted to negioate w

I think he was referring to the Iranian Hostage Crisis. Which took place in the last 500 days of Carter's administration. BTW, AD I got your PM. I just haven't had the time to respond. The weekend are always packed with things. I do understand what you're saying and I'll respond to your PM soon.

[quote who="Leauki" reply="12" id="2260515"] ANYWAY... it is refreshing to learn that the "death to the Jews" crowd in Iran is smaller than the "death to the dictator crowd". It would make the world a much better place instantly if a new Iranian regime would re-open diplomatic relations with Israel and encourage trade and tourism between the two countries. After all, Israel and Iran had been allies ever since 550 BCE, an alliance that only ended when the terro

To be honest with you, I would be surprised if Mahmoud Ahmadinejad got relected and when they said he did I was shocked by it. Because I have friends that live there and they say people are sick of the Iranian political regimes. Especially college students and people in their mid twenties are just sick and tired of how Iran is. If you do go to Iran let me know. I would love to go. I also have the stamp of that country that Ahmadinejad speaks of so often. I'

My point WASN'T that Shakespeare was so old it was the fact of how RECENT it was and that WE ARE MISSING a fair amount of his works even though during his OWN time he was famous.

First, Einstein is AN EXPERT on astrophysics and physics. Thank you for your weak definition of appeal to authority but I know what it means. I was alluding to the fact of how you were just saying a fallacy when there was NO fallacy committed FOR Einstein is an expert in those areas. I'm not just saying that because 'he's all that' he's a renowned physists. For ad verecundiam to be true A. the authority is NOT AN EXPERT IN SAID FIELD (oh wait Einstein is)

I strongly feel that this whole thing is a cycle. I had this whole debate with some lepton in a previous thread about some time ago. If Lula or Leauki (they're not the lepton) reads this maybe they can remember who and where. I think Nitro posted on that thread as well but can't remember it was a while ago. To which I'm sure no one is going to remember due to the fact of how many threads I'm sure everyone has posted on. Essentially, he (the lepton) was espoucing

I haven't read any of the MSNBC post but I'm sure that most of those posters speak from the side of their mouths and want everything to be political correct. 'We have to remember that this was just a joke and the Right is taking all of this out of context.' They want to eat their cake and ice cream (and milkshake) all at once! And have it both ways (or three ways). This is the freedom of having free speech well as long as you don't bash those people who are in popular.

I like how she, Contessa, stated how she's been called slutty 'but its happened in public'. This shows a few things. First, she gets called slutty in private. Second, she doesn't realize there is a difference between her being called slutty in public and being called slutty on national television and then it being repeated on national television over and over again. Third, I don't think ANYONE would say something like that about Biden's grandchildren OR for that matter it w

[quote who="the_Peoples_Party" reply="14" id="2252941"] "Liberal" is defined, in theory, by certain political positions. "Conservative" is defined simply by trying to preserve or go back to a previous situation. In a society that used to be liberal, a conservative is a liberal.

Symmantics vary from place to place. That's why so many discussions boil down to definition of words and how one defines a word. A good example of my thought here is McDonald's. McDonald is just about all over the world and each McDonald has its own individual flavor. In Thailand, some McDonalds serve a Pad Thai yet it still is a McDonald.
