The "politics" board here seems more like a debate board. Politics, philosophy, religion. I mean, we discuss morals and ethics, which really fall more under the branch of philosophy then politics. It would be cool, which enough people well versed in Philosophy.

I’m with Newgrundling. In lala land, Communism would be the ideal system. But we live in the real world, and Anyone who doesn’t think Capitalism has proven thru time to be the best needs to study history better! The USA is the prefect example. It started out as a few week counties, and turned into a super power in a little over 200 years. You can hate it all you want, but that can’t deny its power and strength.

Civil Disobedience? You have to be “civil” first. Besides, Gandhi believe is was a Countries duty to protect it’s people. He also believed if their was an injustice going on, such as the way Saddam treats his people, you should do everything in your power to stop it.

Civil Disobedience, my ass! Your dictionary says it best when it says Civil Disobedience is “characterized by the use of passive resistance or other nonviolent means.”

Racists are forced my penalty of law to do what the Commander says. Out in the field like these solders are, if they were taking the doing that under their own accord without the commanding officers orders and consent, their would be hell to pay! They would no doubt be court Marshaled and go to Prison if they are not discharged. Do you know what a military prison is like? They STILL haul in large boulders and force the solders to chip away at them with pick axes! Do you really think 2 solders would risk that fate to save an old man or a child? Trust me, this is the army doing it, not just a small group of solders!

Response to: Creationism in Public Schools Posted March 26th, 2003 in Politics

Lol, why in the name of all that is holy did I even reply to this? It always ends up the same way! And we all repeat what we thing back and forth till we just get tired and stop replying. Anyways, lets dive in, shall we?

The Evolution of an animal into a higher life form is a fact. I am no referring the process of the Evolution, but the Theory of Evolution. I though this was understood. Guess not.

So you don’t think the Big Bang is garbage? Check out William Lane Craig's book “Reasonable Faith” His theory is this, without exception, whatever begins to exist has a cause, and the universe began to exist, so the universe has a cause! Dust just happened so explode to make a universe? Don’t get started on Stephen Hawkins, buddy, there are maybe 5 people in the word who can understand his theories, and I doubt we are in that number. He believes there is a timeless space, a four-dimensional hypersphere, near the beginning of the universe. Now, this is all Greek to me, and I’m guess unless you received a doctorate at the age of nine, it is Greek to you as well. The main problem with the big bang isn’t the mass of Scientific evidence against it, but the small amount supporting it. For that reason, I feel it will forever stay a theory.

religion and science are not to be mixed? How can one truly exist without the other? Let us assume for a second God is real, then did he not create all the things Scientist study? Assuming he truly exists, and that he created the Universe, should he not be a part of it all? When over 90% of Adults believe there is a God, why should the minority be treated with favor? I know we try to grant equality here, but the Needs, wants, and desires of the Many greatly outweigh those of the few.

This is problem be my last post in here, seeing as I feel it is a waste of time to argue with someone when neither side it ready or willing to give up their beliefs. I’d stay and listen, if I hadn’t heard all of this before!

Response to: Creationism in Public Schools Posted March 25th, 2003 in Politics

The problem with Evolution is that is have to many holes in it. Creationism is just another treat. In fact, most and more scientist are following a system called “Intelligent Design” which is more an Agonistic version of Creationism. It is not “bullshit” as someone called it. Look it up, there are more factor pointing toward this. Evolution is a factor in us today, in the development of the different animal species but it doesn’t explain the creation of all of this. The big band? Please! What a crock!? How far up your ass does your head have to be to buy into that!

Listen to what I am saying! I am not saying protein is stored on the bones. I am saying the amino acids from meat causes the bone to break down to provide enough alkaline meterials to nutralize the acids. Your medical textbook should have plenty of info concorning acid nutralization to prove my point. The body then pisses out the bone's calcium. Furthmore, what I am saying has been documented by independent reasearchers: A University of Chicago study in 1992 found that big eaters of meat lost an average of 90mg of calcium per day, while a 2003 study done by the University of Applied Sciences in Germany examined vegan's intake of calcium vs calcium pissed out and found that vegans gained on balance 119mg of calcium a day. Lemme see your studies.

I am listening to what you said, this is the first time you said THAT! Thank you for phasing it so those of us who don’t speak vagen can make since of it! Neutralize Amino Acids? Not all Acids need to be neutralized! Do we neutralize DNA? What about RNA? What about stomach bile? Is that neutralized? No, no, and no. The reason the amino acids caused calcium loss is because protein, calcium, and minerals require the fat-soluble vitamins A and D for their assimilation and utilization by the body. When protein is consumed without these factors, it screws up the normal biochemistry of the human body and causes nutrient and mineral loss. Yeah, sure the meat eater lose more calcium, because the don’t eat a complete and proper diet! Studies? You want studies? I can give you more then studies, these are proven facts!

A study is an application of the scientific method. It goes from stateing the problem to analysis. All that is left is drawing conclusions. Hmmm, documented calcium loss of people who eat vs vs. vegans gaining calcium. Conclusion: a vegetarian diet is good for you. You want another study? Sure, I got plenty. HOw about the much publizized China health study done by Cornell and Oxford studies that looked at the effects of availibility of meat is certain areas. The results? To quote T. Colin, Ph.D:"The China Health Project's Primary finding is that the Chinese who eat the least
fat and animal products have substantially lower rates of cancer, heart attack, and several other chronic
degenerative diseases."

I heard the say study about the Japanese who eat mostly fish. Just skip the studies, just some meat (pardon the pun) to sink our teeth into! Some fact. One or 2 studies doesn’t mean crap! You need to read the book “How to Lie With Statistics” by Darrell Huff, Irving Geis. This book will make you understand how Studies are just that, studies. Nothing concrete is proven by one or 2 studies. Just read the book…

Never heard of that. That is the first time I have ever heard someone say Chicken, when prepared properly, is unhealthy!
Simply because you never heard it before doesn't make it untrue. The arguement still stands.

Ok, I’ll give you that. I just figured with all the propagand about Beef beign unhealthy being spread around, we would here a thing or 2 about the chicken being bad for us!

You need to check your facts before you post something like this. He set the world record for the 100-meter dash, won two gold medals, and had the best long jump series of his career while on the diet. I get this tidbet from Runner's World, 1992 edition. Furthermore, the diet hasn't been weakening him, he even saidn in a interview that his best year in athletics was when he started the diet. He also continues to tour the country and explain the merits of a vegan diet. Now, if it weaken him, why is he such a proponet of a vegan diet?

Check YOUR facts, the majority of the gold metals he won where in the 80’s, before the vagen diet. But, he is getting old, and it is expected that he would be slowing down, so I will give you this one. Still doesn’t account for the millions of those Athletes who break records and win contests on all meat diets, though!

Bro, look up “gorilla diet” on a search engine, and look for a Zoology or otherwise scientific site, not a vegan site, and they will confirm what I have said. Gorilla’s diet are different because their philology is different. Call me when you have black hair growing all over your body and you can climb trees with your toes!
I got bored. I looked up "gorilla diet" on Yahoo. I found more then a barginned for: Go to http://www.scienceupdate.com/april00.html
and click on April 13. It explains all you need to know. The larger colon simply allows the ape to be stronger than a man. Even with our small colon, we can get our nessesary protein from plants, like our ancestors who we share 99.9% of our DNA with.
Is it? Really? Show me, and NOT in a Vegetarian site, either. Show me in a Scientific site! I just finished looking though “the Textbook of Medical Physiology” by Arthur C. Guyton, M.D., and it said nothing about Protein being stored in the bones. Are you telling me the foremost textbook for medical knowledge is wrong and you are right? Product some proof, buddy, or don’t quote science!

That radio show is where I first learned about the Gorilla junk, when one of the guys I train asked the question ,we searched, and find that. They say the motivations in the Digestive system are the reason we can digest vegetables and fruits, and the Digestive system is a result of years of evolution we humans don’t have! Listen to is again!

I'm not sayign the foremost medical knowlege is wrong, as I have shown foremost medical science supports my side. Maybe you should read that textbook more closly and read about how the body neutralized the sufuric acid formed from animo acids. The only conclusive study showing a porblem with vegetarianism is showing how vegan diets lack B12. An so, I suggestto all vegetarians to taek B12 suppliments, like what I'm doing.

See above, I already covered this. All I have to add is, if you have to take a pill to fix the kinks in your diet plan, there is something wrong with your diet plan.

What if... that actually happens with this war? When we get there are the Iraqi's going to be gone? or (as I also predict) will there be a chemical biological war that will ensue? I put it up to you.

It is a nice theory, but it has a few flaws. The main one being, if you look closely at the news, there are still citizens running around in Baghdad. Another being, we have spy satellites that can read the year of a dime on the top of the Washington Monument, I’m pretty sure they would have picked up a mass exoduses of Arabs from the city. As it is, they where worried that Saddam would not let them leave the city and us them as human shields, so I’m pretty sure the US military is keeping close tabs in the civilians whereabouts. It is a very interesting thought, I have to say, just not realistic with the technology we have today.

I also have no doubt their will be a chemo-biological factor in the war.

They are not. They don’t want to kill the civilians, but the war is taking place mainly in a urban area, they can’t avoid it.

The large majority of the Military in this country is for the war.

Where do you get your info? Did you see the smaller expolsions taking place within the large ones? That was ammo backfire from anti-air craft weapons they hit. Admittedly, they were close to civilian targets, but they did not aim for any schools or Apartment buildings.

People seem to forget that our Army is beyond doubt the must humanitarian in the world today. We are not Vikings or pirates or Romans, we go out of our way to protect the civilian, not just in this war, either.

The point of the Shock and Awe raids is to end the war fast, and limit the number of civilian and military casuistries on both sides and in case you haven’t been watching the new, it has worked!

Your right, I said that, I was correcting you.

They are broken down after they linger on the bone structure, and then are finally crapped out. Furthmore, the amount of protein the human body needs has been seriously miscalculated by "experts" who work for meat companies. "Proper protein" isn't that much say experts which are unalligned to meat companies, and the 2 or 3 amino acids that meat has which vegetables largly don't aren't needed to be comsumed as they are the type which are easily manufactured by the body.

We don't get as much as pure vegetarians from vegetables, but we get guite enough. Your comment on lions, tigers and, bears simply are not applicible, as those animals have digestive processes much different from ours, and can deal with the negative parts of animal protein.

As for Carl Lewis, let me ask you with, when did he win his Gold Medals? In the 1984 Olympics he own four gold medals, the first from the100. With a burst that was clocked at 28 mph at the finish, Lewis won by eight feet, a record. He had a 10-year unbeaten streak in all events, till the 1991 World Championships, he got owned by Mike Powell. He started his vagen diet in 1990. The point is, in the 1980’s, when he was still an omnivore, he won more races, and by a much widen margin. He is still a great athlete, but he got progressive worst as he started eating his new diet.

First off, the reason weed will never be legalized is because the Tobacco and Alcohol are paying the legislators. Weed, unlike Alcohol and Tobacco, is easy to grow and cheap. It is also safer then Alcohol, and more effective them Tobacco. Weed would be a make your own and sell it thing, the Conglomerates would lose lots of money. Not much Tobacco and Alcohol, either. Why take pain killers for head aches, muscle craps, and PMS when you can roll up a fatty for free! The Tylenol and Aspirin and Ibuprofen companies would lose money as well. On top of that, ever, is the black market. If weed is legalized, people would freely grow it in their front yards and the drug cartels would lose money! No top of that, all the bars and restaurants and clubs would lose money from the drinks they sell. On top of that, hemp makes great rope, clothing, shoes, etc, etc so all the clothing a mercantile industries would lose money! EVERYONE who has money has something to lose, there is no why they are going to legalize weed!

Listen, Alcohol has been around and is more popular then weed ever was, in the European and Descended European cultures. Weed has been around, but not in our culture for a while.

Alcohol isn’t made by man! We can replication conditions for fermentation, but the fermentation is self is a natural possess, just like the growing of Weed. Besides, God make hemlock, are you going to say that is better for you then cyanide?

FACT: Animal proteins, especially those found in red meat are not heathy. They are processed very inefficiently and generate excess amino acids which the body can't absorb. These excess amino acids weaken bone structure. Hense vegetable proteins found in lentils and nuts are better for you.

Animal protein IS healthy. You have been lied to if you think it is not. Yes, EXCESS animal protein will make Animal protein excess in your body. For a time.

They all have bits and pieces. On top of that, do you realize how little protein is in them? Do you realize how much your would have to eat to get proper protein?


FACT: It has been shown through many studys that vegetarianism increases longegivity

What studies? I can find studies staying the Adkins diet is healthier, doesn’t mean it is true. I can find studies that say being a vegetarians is unhealthy, even! Studies don’t mean anything, studies are just a stepping stone on the scientific method. They have a study that proves everything under the sun.

FACT: Red meat is notiorious for having bad cholesterol that clog up arteries and cause heart attacks.

So, what is wrong with Fish, poultry, and dairy protein? You can also by Lean Beef, that is health for you. Even pork has been lowered in fat now!

FACT: One does not need to eat meat in order to be strong. Several Olympic athletes have been vegetarians. Moreover, look at gorillas.

Tell me the name of one? The only Professional Athlete who is close to being a vegetarianism I know of is a Body Builder in the Golden Age named Bill Pearl. And he did eat Dairy and eggs. However, there where at least 20 other guys better then him at the time, and they ALL eat red and white meat. GORILLAS? WHAT!? You are basing your knowledge on that of another animal!? DO you realize how unique and specific human philology is? Clearing not. And this is based on fact! If you want to talk about animals, what about Tigers? What about loins? What about Bears? What about wolves? You apes friends have a longer digestive tracked and a large colon, so that the plants stay in their longer, and digest more. They have evolved to a fully vegetarians diet for Millions of years of only eating Plants. We human, like lions, tigers, and bears, never evolved to the level where we can eat all vegetables and fruits and get the full benefit like apes and other animals do.

Just to set the record straight...

Well, try again. And please, be more careful next time when you label things as facts.
