Taliban publicly execute woman, men cheer....

Doesn't do a thing for me. :)

Ha! "Just one more war and there will be peace." They didn't mention that it would last 2,000 years.

I was going to write that, too, but Buddhism is generally not considered a "religion" as the others. In addition, do you know how Zen got developed? The Samuri warriors wanted to not be afraid of death when they were involved with their killing.

He's no Ronald Reagan.

True Buddhism isn't meant to be a religion, but a practice, that being said the vast majority of it's adherents don't practice it as such, but as a religion.

He is a excellent actor ("Sommersby" still gets me teary eyed at various points, even after repeated viewings, he and Jody Foster were just SO good! ...and the score was excellent also!), and yes freakin gorgeous! :)

Thank any-and-all-god(s)! One was MORE then enough thank you -VERY- much!

Excellent!

It is both.

He made two movies based on Japanese ones. Did you know that, MSnbc?

....everything whoreywood does is recycled, is this supposed to be a "revelation" of some kind? I leave that to the snake-handlers. MSnbc? Are you making a personal attack of some kind? Sounds like someone's needs his nap (or perhaps nappy changed?)! I'm disappointed, expected you to tell me he's a "Leftist", isn't that what you always say?

{Pro-choice as opposed to ANTI-choice obviously, it's just what it says, self-evident and obvious.}

Word games. Are we talking about "choosing" what kind of dressing you want on your salad? Or are we talking about CHOOSING TO END THE LIFE OF A VIABLE UNBORN BABY THAT WANTS TO LIVE?

Why do you people hide behind these euphemisms? Is it shame? Fear of disclosing the true meanings?

Jainism and the Bahá'í Faith come to mind with regard to peace.

So to address my original statement---All Religion is Bull Crap---

How many Americans are practicing Jainism? If you're not Christian, you're not American and you most likely are going to hell.../

Who said anything about Americans practicing Jainism?

OK, avoid the topic. Keep up the euphemisms. I will limit my use of the word "choice" to restaurants and DVDs. You apply it to living unborn babies. Go right ahead.

euphemisms? I spelled things out the truth clearly, the FACT that this contradicts your right-wing-corporate-fascist-party ideology is no problem of mine.

True, true!

Yes, euphemisms. You did not refer to what you meant by "choice." You said what it is not. You never mentioned what it really is in this context: Snuffing out the life of an unborn child.

All religions are destructive because they rob the human spirit of its divinity.

buddism has its bloody history too.

you have never heard too much about them, but you hate them?
wow

i especially how you mixed the kirshnas with the buddists.

um so pro-life isnt a play on words huh?
cuz as i recall the party that is supposedly pro-life are also the capital punishment and pro-war crowd, making the por-life claim just frippery.

but then again, they have no idealogy, so it is just a coincidence that they all happen to claim to be pro life, while loving executions.

nope.america has christians,jews,muslims,athiests,buddists,siiks,hindus,and so forth.all americans.sorry this is news to you

the choice to snuff out that life.it is pretty clear

like the choice to kill crminals

"ddism has its bloody history too."

Left-winger socialism is the bloodiest of them all.

"so pro-life isnt a play on words huh? "

Nope. It is clear. Those people are for life. If they wanted to be very specific, maybe they would say they are "pro-unborn-baby-living," or something like that. "Pro-choice?" Heck, I said that to my wife today at a restaurant. She asked me what I thought was good, and since I am "pro-choice," I suggested she choose freely and voluntarily. Is that the kind of "choice" you mean?

"pro-life are also the capital punishment"

Yes, that is why I referred to the unborn little babies. Degenerate murderers are a different story. Isn't it interesting that Liberals will hold candlelight vigils for serial rapist-killers, and encourage women to "make choices?"

{the choice to snuff out that life it is pretty clear

like the choice to kill crminals}

Yes, they are equivalent in the Leftist mind. Thank you for the clear response.

It's alright to kill them -AFTER- they're born (after there's a actual real person involved and not a zygote) apparently.

No right-wing fascism, endless killings, endless "disappearances" to mass un-marked graves, South America is filled with them, right-wing-fascists responsible. Many of the so-called governments in-bed with your blessed saints mad-emperor-reagan for instance, amongst other scum, like your boy friedman, and the iron-whore-thatcher.

"pro-unborn-baby-living"
Ha! How about "pro wedge issue".

"degenerate murderers"
Funny how DNA testing has so many of your degenerate murderers walking free.
"candlelight vigils"
Who?What?Where?
"encourage...... make choices"
Offer choices. Women clearly think that's good. What the heck do you know? How to do invasive ultrasound?

Reading comprehension problem.

You have deflected and adverted from the topic. I am referring to the typical Conservatives, the people in your town, the people on your street - the ones who believe that the lives of unborn babies should not be snuffed out and called "making a choice."

But you divert to a completely different topic about government actions that have nothing to do with the lives of unborn children in our country, and the people who do not want to see their little lives ended.

{Funny how DNA testing has so many of your degenerate murderers walking free.}

Leftist tactic that I have pointed out many times: If something (or someone) is not 100% perfect 100% of the time, then it is to be summarily rejected and denied.

Sorry, I do not buy into it.

No. You're talking about a wedge issue. The mainstream conservative constituency does not agree with you. You simply seek to push legislation through corruptly elected red-state legislatures.
Again, you are male. Why is it your issue?

Sorry. My bad. It is evident that you simply don't understand the science.

Thanks for taking the time. Sorry I missed them. It is wrong to kill under any circumstances.

As Freecrack so wisely said
"um so pro-life isnt a play on words huh?
cuz as i recall the party that is supposedly pro-life are also the capital punishment and pro-war crowd, making the pro-life claim just frippery. (I'd say it's typical right-wing HYPOCRISY!)

but then again, they have no idealogy, so it is just a coincidence that they all happen to claim to be pro life, while loving executions."

What is the purpose of execution? Is it not usually for horrendous crimes against the mores of society?
What crimes has a unborn or newly born committed against society?

well left winger socialism according to you is all their is, as conservatism has no idealogy according to you in order to amass any actions for better of worse.

but do tell us more about left winger socialism.its a hoot watching the damaged mind at work

so the pro-life crowd arent the same people who support the death penalty?
the pro-life folks are vegetarians?
the pro-life crowds are opposed to war as a way of dealing with others?
the pro-life crowd are against guns, as they are a tool that serves but one function to kill?

which by the way, if you are pro-life, or pro-anything for that matter, you have an idealogy.which you claim conservatives dont have.

so please go on and keep explaining.this is funny

degenerate murderers are a different story?
do degenerate murderers not possess their own lives in order to be degenerate murderers?
cuz im pretty sure they arent the undead walking the earth like zombies.
they are alive, thus supporting killing them regardless of the reason why, is being not pro-life.it is actively supporting a position that seeks to take lives.

thus making the pro-life moniker word play exploiting concepts, not accurately expressing them.

not a matter of leftist or right mind, as the word "life" has a clear meaning.

but remember apparently "life" only applies to the unborn.
and all other forms of life dont qualify as life.
just a little rewriting of the english language in direct opposition to the dictionary and it all makes sense

aint it amazing how without an idealogy he can explain so clearly the belief system.hmmm

who says the purpose of execution is singular.
their is the purpose of punishment, also the purpose of scaring people into not doing various things, as well as making problems go away that other wise cannot be suppressed.

not to mention the sacrificing of virgins and such to appease gods.

it has no single purpose, and changes from situation to situation.

the problem with the abortion debate is the mixing of concepts.
some how an unborn chid is viewed as life, when as unborn it is the potential for life, not actual life.even by your own account, do you celebrate your "birthday" which marks the length of your life measured by years, by when you were born, or when you were concieved?

you have an allowance for killing that makes it just in your view.it seems as punishment.
you fail to see that others have different allowences for killing and expect them to think as you do.

nor is preventing the birth of a child the same thing as executing it.

you do know abortions happen naturaly right?woman expell fertalized eggs all the time when menstruating.it makes it not a matter of ethics or judgement of any sort.it is a natural process.

The right-wing-fascist-party and fellow travelers do seem to be all about revisionism, in every area - just like "1984"... it's very "revealing".

it's very "revealing" isn't it?

comment was made with poor satire I guess. I don't hate anyone. I do hate religion in general. It keeps people suppressed and depressed. The statement was in response to folks who don't gather info about anything but still hate what they don't understand, at the same time not willing to learn.

Those who know conservatism do agree with me. I encapsulated the views of Kirk, Buckley, Chambers and a host of others. Sorry.

Pro-life is not an ideology, of course, unless you think that the very basics of any civilization - not killing, not stealing, etc. - mean ideology.

I understand. No problem.

how can one know conservatism when it has no idealogy to know of?

no.pro-life is an idealogy.
what isnt an idealogy is poro blinking or pro breathing.these are natural functions that require no idealogy.
for instance according to you islam isnt pro-life, yet they are over a billion strong right.
so being as they do exist, and have so for almost 1500 yrs, you gotta pick one or the other.

i do look forward to another argument over the use of the word almost, and to what effect

{pro-life is an idealogy.}

OK. If believing in the sancity of life is an "ideology," than I am an ideologue.

yes, we all know you are an ideologue, and based on more than just that.
but it is nice to see you joining us in reality, even if it is but for a moment

Are you implying that discrimination against women doesn't exist in the USA, especially among fundamentalist Christians?

Look across the world. You will see that women in Western countries have the most freedom and status.

Well said!

Except for China and India, among others, i.e. about 40% of the world's population between these two countries. Then, there is Brazil, Japan, Indonesia, etc., with huge populations too.

No, it goes on in this country under multiple religions. It goes on in many countries under many different religions. It goes on in families with no religion. It depends on the family and the situation. We have places for women to reach out here in this country. The shelters and agencies are all over the place. They started over 50 years ago. Now there are tear sheets on the inside of toilet stall doors with numbers and websites to get help....

At least the women aren't beaten, shot or beheaded out on the street in this country, with men cheering it on.

Yes, as I wrote, look to Western Civilization and how free women are in them.

They are no more free than in many other countries.

Uh... I guess this doesn't count, then: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_in_the_United_States

Really? You actually believe that?

Quite incredible. I mean it is almost impossible to fathom....

It is not a matter of belief, it is simply a matter of fact. You certainly haven't been around or read much...

It simply is not true. And the truth is obvious.

It certainly never has been obvious to you since you systematically get everything wrong!

No, I got this one right. Check out Dinesh D'Souza for starters. Look into the life of women in China, India, the Middle East and Africa. Even eastern Europe.

I guess that is why India, Bangla Desh, Tannu Tuva, Mongolia, Sri Lanka, among others, had women freely elected to very high posts, long before this happened in Western countries.

The lives of women in those countries are circumscribed, both legally and socially. One marries, for example, the person that the family chooses. Rebel against it and one is ostracized. OK, now start and say that this happens in America - distort and twist.

Well and truly said! It's a massive ongoing disgrace...

Who so shall telle a tale after a man,
He moste reherse, as neighe as ever he can,
Everich word, if it be in his charge,
All speke he never so rudely and so large;
Or elles he moste tellen his tale untrewe,
Or feinen thinges, or finden wordes newe.

LOL

The gretest clerkes ben not the wisest men.

The firste vertue, sone, if thou wilt lere,

so it took 1400 yrs to compile the truth in a book?

Not impressed.

Two words; Colorado City.

Are you willfully blind?

Which christians are you speaking of?

"Two words; Colorado City."

To what post are you referring? Please reference your posts.

Whoso that frõ the poore mannes cry
Stoppeth his eares though he loude crye,
Shall not be heard; and moreover, rede ye,
His days shall increase and multiplye
That avarice hateth — this is no lie.

If these other countries are so pro-female and the USA is not why, pray tell, are you still living here in the land of feminist suppression?

Still trying hard to impress us, eh?

{Vierotchka:
If these other countries are so pro-female and the USA is not why, pray tell, are you still living here in the land of feminist suppression?}

Excellent question. If I were living under "oppression," I would certainly want to leave....

Which land would that be, according to you ("here in the land of feminist suppression")?

Word games. Your post clearly imply that in America women are oppressed/suppressed. You praise other non-Western countries for how women live in them. Now, I suspect either a personal insult, a pretense to sophistication with poems, or word games that deflect from the obvious essence of your posts. Why do I write "obvious?"

Because Nursediesel and I came to the same conclusion - independently - about your posts.

Let the insults, poems, or word game begin:

Ready..... Set..... GO!

I wasn't talking to you. But the fact that you responded so fast leads one to suspect that you and Nursediesel are one and the same...
