Re: The danger of “LGBT” teachers.

More likely that he did not follow the "party line." From a cursory reading of the wikipedia article, it was not ethics, as a disagreement with his conclusions. I would be expelled as well, as I would never call homosexuality "normal" but rather a pathology. The accusations from...

Re: The danger of “LGBT” teachers.

Pretty old data, you would think we have considerably more data now. I would expect that if this was the case, we would have more modern data as well to support this. There is very little data reverenced too. 30 cases… Yes. This a report from almost 40 years ago. Yes, because back then there wasn’t...

Re: Browser for Windows 7?

This reminds me of how my Dad refused to give up DOS and was only willing use Windows 3.1 and 95 because he could still natively run it. He refused to use Windows 2000 for years until it became impossible not to upgrade.

So it goes in tech...

Re: Calling people evil or demonic

I think one of the problems of calling things “evil” and “demonic” is that it ends up taking away the potency of those words if we use them too much. I do believe that evil exists, but if everything I disagree with is “evil” or “demonic,” then nothing is. When is the line crossed between potent eno...

Re: Four Presidents in NY, Hucksters ???

Trump is accused of being a huckster for promoting Bibles, and possibly garnering money from their sales. But who really are the hucksters? Getting a pittance for selling Bibles or asking $100,000 dollars to be photographed with past presidents? If the Trump's purpose isn't to make money from the B...

Re: "God Bless the USA" Bibles

The value of that stock is probably artificially high. The $3-$4 billion is wealth on paper. Do you have some better idea of how to value a security other than a high volume, high liquidity market like the Nasdaq? The market value of a stock is its current value. But not all stocks are based on sta...

Re: Evil and Violence

I think the attention we pay has to do with our understanding of belonging to another Kingdom as ambassadors of that Kingdom. Do you think that the attention paid to MN's political threads demonstrates an understanding as belonging to another Kingdom? Not when I participated in that Politics sub fo...
