Only if it stays on topic.

I'm looking at an apparent contradiction between some things Jesus says in the Book of John, using the same Greek word: troubled (ταράσσω) Look particularly at John 12:27: “Now my soul is troubled , and what shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this hour’? No, it was for this very reason I came to thi...

So I suppose this topic is over then. There are two separate questions here. The first question is whether or not Trump is legally qualified to be a presidential candidate. The Supreme Court did not rule on that question. They simply ruled that State courts are the wrong forum to make that determin...

I think they should have made that finding after the January 6 impeachment, when a majority of both Houses essentially agreed with that finding.

Do you think "facts" and arguments can exist in a disconnected fashion? I think that arguments about facts usually come from motives of someone who actually has some other agenda. I think it's good to have everyone's motives laid out on the table and say why they are really arguing for th...
