Your favorite part of the 'Declaration of Independence'

Swashbuckle @Swashbuckle (305) • United States 12 Jul 09

What is your favorite part of this historic document? ---- We hold these truths to be self evident. That all men are created equal. That they are endowed by their Creator with certain and unalienable Rights - That among these...

ProvostGuard Many people in the United States want to remove God from public life, arguing that the mention of God and the Creator in relation to our government somehow violates their Constitutional rights. However, the Constitution guarantees us freedom of religion, not...

ProvostGuard I like the Declaration as a whole, though my favorite part is probably the list of grievances against King George. It shows why many Americans were upset enough to revolt against their government.

Racism is a 18th century flawed theology and has no point in the modern day!!!

Swashbuckle @Swashbuckle (305) • United States 10 Jul 09

Well, brought on by hfahctor. Thanks friend! I just want to say that racism is a stupid arguement used to accuse people who have real doubts about some people and their policies as a way to make said people to shut up. I think...

ProvostGuard Some, including me, think racism is silly simply because the concept of race is an artificial construct; all humans belong to the same race. Within the human race there are people with different cultures and appearances. From a genetic standpoint, however, we...

ProvostGuard A rally itself is not a bad thing. It's one way for us to exercise our freedom of speech. It's the protesters, how they choose to protest, and how the media chooses to report it that makes a rally bad. Just using this as an example, but I don't like turning on...

ProvostGuard Just looking at Glenn's expression, I see no indication that he is in favor of an attack on the United States. I would even say that Scheuer was not being literal and was only trying to emphasize a point. In addition, it's not treason if they both support the...

ProvostGuard What we know as the New Testament did not appear until long after Jesus had died. However, most of the writings that make up the New Testament appeared several decades after after His death. We are fairly certain that most of the Letters of Paul were actually...

Fox news the best when it comes to political facts? why or why not?

Swashbuckle @Swashbuckle (305) • United States 9 Jul 09

I love Fox News, I watch the O'reilly factor a lot. Who here watches, or doesn't? tell me why or why not.

5 responses

ProvostGuard Fox News does seem to be a bit more fair and balanced. I don't really understand why people frequently accuse Fox of being a network of right-wing extremists. I have seen Bill O'Reilly play the devil's advocate and defend Obama on occasions. I have seen Neil...

ProvostGuard There is an overwhelming amount of evidence that suggests we did land on the moon in 1969. I personally think landing on the moon would have been easier than accurately reproducing a moon landing in a studio with 1960s technology.
