The 2 Republicans are going to have a run-off since neither will 50 percent... which means they'll have to fight it out another few months.

AND a Judge issued a Temp Restraining Order in Dallas County to block the vote count.

While ignoring the silly self-serving question above...

On Topic, it turns out that Trump's War had wiped out all the so-called Moderates that were vying to lead Iran, and as the only leaders left are the Radicals, Khomeini's son is now the leading candidate to lead Iran.

Scratch some atheists, and apparently you get a rwing Gnostic who KNOWS that what is just actually their OPINION is really Fact.

I know what I say is opinion and or belief... you two need to hide behind ad hominem because you KNOW BECAUSE YOU KNOW that something is a myth, and couldn't possibly be real.

btw, all that 'New Atheist' stuff died of hubris at least a decade ago, and more and more people realize that maybe they don't KNOW everything there is to know.

Opinions and beliefs are fine either way... being -------- to anyone who disagrees with you is passe.

Twoofy,

In the story, this is a spiritual happening, not a physical one.

M'K? Now, you may not believe that, but that's your opinion, which is not necessarily a fact.

On Topic....

Right before US Troops were told this was about Armageddon, Marco Rubio was saying that backwards Iran thought this was about Armageddon, lol.

#103

That does not make it rape, either, in that culture at that time.

#99 |

'militant atheism' was State Policy, not just Stalin's personal belief.

Twoofy, that was the thread you also said Mary was underage... until someone pointed out to you that 12-14 was the average marriage age.

Which was right after your fiasco about the wine being worse than the water... to a blind horse, or something like that.

#91

I liked my answer better... 'so BJ could be happy either way'.

#89

The last time we did this a few weeks ago, you hurt yourself and everyone pointed and laughed at you.

I don't want that to happen again.

- I find it interesting to push your buttons on this

Ah, so. Now, when confronted, you were just, 'pushing buttons".

You as see-through as clear glass.

- a logical fallacy fanatic

Appeal to Authority... is when there is no rationale given, as I provided in the link.

And if we took away your ad hominem and several other logical fallacies, you wouldn't be able to post at all.

#84

People who use derision to try to prove that their opinions are actually facts are... kinda sad, really.

Aren't you the one who got slapped around recently for not grokking that wine was usually healthier to drink than was the local water 2000 years ago?

- no one will watch

People who think that their opinions are facts are too close-minded for any new information.

#82

... is no kind of argument at all.

And your opinions remain just that, not facts as you would have us believe.

- They're stories. Period.

Thanks for confirming that you believe that your opinions are Facts. Just like any Gnostic rwinger, you know because you know because you know.

Of course, we have all known that for years.

Meanwhile there are physicists, astrophysicists, neurophysicists, the former head of the Human Genome project, prominent Phds in all sorts of sciences that disagree with your OPINION.

Here's one now, neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman, who will tell you that the next time a neuron has a conscious thought will be the first time... and about his belief in God.

- it's no different than being extremely knowledgeable about something like The Lord of the Rings.

You can't help yourself, obviously. Derision of people who happen to disagree with your opinions says that you are:

A. Not actually confident in your opinions and
B. Project belief that your opinions are facts... again, just like any Gnostic rwinger.

#74

I gave my opinion on the subject of the article in #12. Perhaps you didn't get it.

oh, and:

- and you believe you KNOW the truth

Pretty obviously refers to your insistence that anyone who disagrees with your profound knowledge about, "Bronze Age goat herder myths" is obviously wrong.

Like I said, just like any rwing Gnostic, you think you KNOW the truth.

The rest of us know that we have opinions, which you degrade... prolly out of a lack of confidence; we don't think we have the certain knowledge that you claim by deriding the opinions of others.

- non sequitur.

Not at all. I just said you shouldn't be so self-righteous about your opinions of religious people, considering what some extreme atheists have done.

- this superstitious crap

We all know what opinions are like... some people just have two of those when you count the one they speak out of.

The difference in this conversation is that I know my opinions are just that, and you believe you KNOW the truth, per your distain of the opinions of others.

So, you and some mouthy rwing Gnostic who, "knows because they know' have much in common.

-If Man was created before Woman then why do men have -------?

To make sure BJ is happy either way?

("Men have ------- because all human embryos begin with a shared, default development plan that forms mammary structures before sex chromosomes trigger differentiation into male or female around week 6-7. ------- are essentially a "pre-installed" feature of the mammalian body plan, and for men, they are a vestigial byproduct rather than a functional necessity.")

#58

Aw, well, at least we now KNOW THE TRUTH!

Stalin used "militant atheism" as an excuse to wipe out at least 12 million people:

#53

Yeah, pretty much:

No, dimwit, here's the numbers you could have looked up rather than looking stupid:

"Violent Crime Comparison:

Research from the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) found that U.S.-born citizens are over 2 times more likely to be arrested for violent crimes than undocumented immigrants."

Incarceration Rates: According to a 2025 analysis by the Cato Institute, the 2023 incarceration rate for native-born Americans was 1,221 per 100,000, compared to 613 per 100,000 for illegal immigrants.

Homicide Rates: In Texas, which provides unique data by tracking immigration status at arrest, undocumented immigrants had a homicide conviction rate 14% to 26% lower than native-born Americans between 2012 and 2022.

Long-term Trends: A Stanford University study found that immigrants have had lower incarceration rates than U.S.-born individuals for over 150 years"

"conflating legal immigrants with illegal immigrants."

The stats I mentioned are include illegal immigrants, if that's the question.

And this has been true for decades, along with the FACT that both have always been net economic plusses.

- repulsive phony Christian

In the story, much of the Church Falls Away from Yeshua and towards the AC... who's current enemies are the actual Christians and the Culturally Christian Dems and atheists.

He's whittling his Base down to nothing... prolly because he thinks he doesn't need them any longer to stay in power.

What good are they if there aren't any Election, or if he's able to rig them no matter the numbers?

Jeff can't understand that this case is an outlier... that per capita, immigrants commit less crimes than do US citizens... and FAR less violent crimes.

So he very dishonestly takes an outlier case and pretends it's the norm.

SO much like Trump in that respect, he is.
