You mean he is threatening to do to them, what they did to him. Like purport lies about the Steele Dossier, promote the Trump/Russian collusion lie, etc. Ooooh, revenge! That's what we need presidents for! And personal, vindictive revenge! Forget innocent until proven guilty! Forget the dangers of ...

Has he been convicted of those 90 felonies at this point? No. And Biden has not been convicted of any of the things you have suggested either. I think the same rules need to apply to both Trump and Biden. Investigations and courts are the right place to figure out what is true and what is not. Shou...

If there's any evidence of that at all, it should be investigated. I think the House of Representatives would be happy to jump on it if you can find them some evidence. But have you looked at how dictators like Hitler actually come to power? Often, by promoting claims like you just made. It gets to...

How do you think the US should keep want-to-be dictators in check? How do you think the US can keep want-to-be dictators who are also unelected puppet masters, in check? We are seeing that right now, right before our eyes. The puppet being Biden and the identity of the puppet masters unknown. If th...

Sorry, Boot, but Paul Graham is just not an advocate for biblical New Testament principles, full stop.

For reelection, I think this clause is also relevant: No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congr...

The separation of powers is that the judiciary (particularly low level state or federal judges) are not in charge of the President, no matter how much they might want to be. The President is accountable to the voters for reelection and Congress for impeachment and the Senate for conviction. I don't...

Let's think about the next level from a biblical perspective: DH1. Ad Hominem. An ad hominem attack is not quite as weak as mere name-calling. It might actually carry some weight. For example, if a senator wrote an article saying senators' salaries should be increased, one could respond: Of course h...

Basically, I’m a lot more interested in how the Bible tells us to seek and find truth than how Paul Graham tells us to. We can evaluate this essay in light of the Bible's teaching. Let's start here: But I say to you that everyone who is angry at his brother will be subject to judgment, and whoever ...

I can't tell what you are agreeing with me or disagreeing with me about. Are you responding to something in what I posted? If so, what? Could you take something specific I said, agree with it or disagree with it, and perhaps explain why?
