    Guns!

    Wow. If that was just hardball then I wonder what a .45 ACP would do. The 9 mm is higher velocity, but the .45 is literally twice as much lead (mostly lead).

    Guns!

    Sure. Completely reasonable. Also just being unarmed in American can't be shown to be unreasonable. I just think we have a right, and it's also wise to consider it a responsibility, to be prepared to defend our lives and limbs, and those of our families, and while we're at it those of other...

    Guns!

    If you're going to be standing your ground, then having a bigger round like a 9 mm or a .380 ACP is probably your best bet, but if you can run for your rifle, which is really what the pistols and handguns are for, then a .22 LR is OK too. In the latter case, it has more to do with your rifle...

    My Problem with Creation Science

    Clete's trying to explain the distinction between scientists as a group, and what he calls "real science", which is the unbiased and honest search for the truth, wherever it may lie. He accuses the scientists of being corrupt on the latter mark, that they are blind to the truth and promulgate...

    Wokey McWokeface

    Basically, fixed it for you. Last I heard the only sports record held by a woman is long distance swimming. Worth noting that there isn't any institutional policy keeping women from competing in all the professional sports, it's just the ladies leagues with institutional discrimination---men...

    Ellen Page Announces: "I Am Insane!"

    Greatest television and movie franchise in modern times right there. TPB FTW. ("for the win"---not implied vulgarity)

    Definitely part of the E in EBR (evil black rifle).

    Don't forget "the shoulder thing that goes up".

    Where does the Bible teach that the earth is billions of years old?

    Truly. The unlikelihood that their fairy tale is true, makes actual fairy tales seem downright realistic.

    Capitol Police Warn Of Threat On March 4th

    Does anyone know if the idea of a "superbug" is possible in viruses, or is it just bacteria? It sounds more like the facility, building, would be the problem, at least to me. Something got out. That means "biosafety level 4" really means "not safe at all", since it let out the covid.

    Capitol Police Warn Of Threat On March 4th

    Illiberal democracy is just as evil as absolute monarchism. Neither protects rights. But liberal democracy is not evil. Neither would be liberal or constitutional monarchism.

    Ethics and morals

    The Catholic bishops claim authority in teaching "faith and morals". Loosely, what we believe, and what we do. But really, it's what we believe and what we believe about what we should do. Whenever we think about obligation, we feel like we're dealing with morals, but not according to this...

    Guns!

    They're not. Commands, commandments, laws, they are biblical. Rights aren't. That's totally fine. Rights come from moral philosophy, where they are the best way for us to formulate a theory of morals that's independent of religion. Morals here means it's someone else's life, not yours, so...

    Wokey McWokeface

    There are at least two racisms, one is a state of mind, which is what Democrats and leftists and progressives mean by racism. The other is the answer to the question, What do you call a person who violates human rights based on race? This racism doesn't require a state of mind, it is objective...

    Evangelism According to John 3:16

    In your own home diocese. Find out the closest parish church to you, decide which day you'd like to attend. Check on the parish's website (or drive by it and look at its sign out front) if there's Mass on that day, some parishes celebrate Mass every day of the week, but almost all of them will...

    Biden - "Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids"

    I think that's clear. See OP.

    Biden - "Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids"

    Unsurprising that any Democrat or progressive users replied here. They know they'd get decimated in this discussion. Fact is it is unclear whether or not President Trump is a racist, or a rapist. And it is also unclear whether President Biden is a rapist. That's all we know.

    Biden - "Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids"

    Why isn't this President Biden's version of President Trump's "They let you grab them" remark? It reveals a fundamentally racist worldview. This level of hypocrisy is why we are so divided as a nation. This is all just party politics, we have our political views, and we vote for the candidate...

    Can Christians Sin?

    And His offer is eternal, and He said to celebrate His offer continually until He comes again, which is exactly what eternal looks like, when it meets with temporality: it goes on forever. We're going to continue to celebrate His offer forever too, because it is eternal. We're not going to...
