Because two are soft and two are X like you? What does this even mean? It said N A Z I S But the N A Z I S that run this place are twats so the made A Z I S into an X after I posted cause that is not what it said when I first saw it. Drama I know. And yet, you’re still here! You must not hate them ...

Hey ppanther...long time!!! Where'd you run off to? We moved to South Carolina several years ago. We moved to Oregon in 2014. The only thing I miss is an abundance of good stores and restaurants (we don’t live in Portland - thank goodness). I can go one direction and be in the middle of town in fiv...

Glad to see DC, Panther, Jay & Biggie in here! Y’all could possibly make this place readable again! Muted midget chimes in 3, 2, 1... Don’t hold out too much hope for my end of the deal. I don’t even know how to play this game any more! I think I’ve become nice ppanther, but that’s probably not...

Nice to see you DC, and I seriously cannot believe you other people still do this.
That’s because you are soft.

So, not much has changed!

Hiya Roach and Mikey!

ppanther

No, no, no, and no on baseball, though I did try to get them to love playing it. It turns out my kids are swimmers!

Nice to see you DC, and I seriously cannot believe you other people still do this.

I'm jealous!! What are you drinking?

My husband has taken up brewing and has had some excellent batches lately, including Rogue (from a kit) Dead Guy Ale. Which, as I remember, was not your favorite. But the hopyard is so cool!

Sam Harris explains the futility Sam Harris explains the futility? Of prayer? Sam Harris is your go-to for an opinion on the efficacy of prayer? Asking Sam Harris if prayer is effective is like asking a cattle rancher if vegan diets are healthy, only worse. Because Sam Harris is an extreme nutcase ...

I'm sure you believe this to be true, Brian. So at least you have that going for you.

BSmack wrote:Exactly what point were you trying to make?

Give me a break, Brian. If you're not being deliberate, well then, you're just obtuse. You pick.

ppanther

Except... Brian knows exactly what I meant, and is being deliberately obtuse. No mystery there.

Keep trying to pigeonhole me. It is rather amusing. But you discovered gravity and so did I. Now, do you want to ask me if I was the FIRST person to discover gravity? In that case I would have to answer no. Why? Because I am reasonably certain that others did so before me. Why is this so hard for y...

ppanther

There is no confusing the two. They are one in the same. Learning can be nothing more than discovering for yourself that which is already known. Or it can be like Newton "discovering" gravity. Either way, the process of acquiring knowledge works the same. You can go ahead and admit that y...

Obviously the nuance is going over your head. But when you do finally figure out what I am saying, it will be YOU that will have put the pieces together in YOUR mind. My role is that of a lens in exposing your mind to the idea and creating the optimum conditions around your so that your mind can ma...

OUT! PS: Was that Smack Chatty enough? For some reason, I remember you ending your posts with "L8!" Maybe that was someone from Kansas City. EVERYTHING YOU HAVE EVER BELIEVED YOU HAVE DISCOVERED ON YOUR OWN. Is it starting to sink in yet? It's not sinking in, mostly because it's absurdly ...

I'm not upset in the least about ppanther's posts. I just don't understand what the fuck happened to her. She used to be able to argue a position with skill and now she's reduced to nothing but ad hominems and incoherent bleats about metaphysical concepts that are clearly beyond her understanding. ...

ppanther

No, it's self evident. Nobody can discover an idea for you. There are facilitators for sure, but the actual "ah ha" moment is a personal experience. You have either had an amazing amount of personal experience, or your worldview is remarkably small. Either way, your baseless arrogance is ...

Delusions of grandeur much? Ridiculous.

And I'm beginning to wonder when the fuck you are going to make a cogent point. All you can do is attack me. You have nothing to say about my arguments. Oh, poor BSmack is being attacked. The horror! I've stated, quite cogently in fact, that I think it's weird that you harbor contempt for the belie...

ppanther

You are seriously boring me.

I'm wondering now, why you're trying to hard to anti-evangelize?

ppanther

There's a reason you don't see a lot of women around here and its not just because these forums have concentrated on sports talk I certainly hope you aren't under the impression that women would find this behavior intimidating. Silly? Yes. Scary? No. Seriously, put that UC Long Beach degree to work...

Well Brian, to be honest, I think it's a little weird that grown-ups even enjoy "smacking" people they have known (even if just over the internet) for 10ish years. I wonder why it's acceptable, commendable, or even something anyone would desire to do. Argue? Sure. Debate? Of course! Smack?...

Oh good grief, Brian... it hasn't been a "smack board" for about 10 years now.

What a strange response.

I have nothing to defend to you, Brian. I'm not the one behaving contemptuously.

the ability to reason vs the desire to maintain a belief system that is not supported by reality. Oh Brian, give me a break. This quote ^^ is incredibly condescending. Too fucking bad. So then, that's how you're playing? If someone calls you tedious (because frankly, your act in this thread has bee...

Gee maybe because Poptart and understanding science are like ppanther and the San Fancisco Giants? He suggested that men lived longer because of atmospheric conditions that, if actually present, would have turned the surface of earth into a boiling cauldron the likes of which is normally seen on th...

Awww Christy. Does logic make your wittle head hurt? Wow, Brian. Seriously? Why do you feel belittlement is necessary? I find it more than a little entertaining that you think you've outsmarted everyone who believes in God and the Bible. I also think it's interesting that you get some level of sati...

I'm an agnostic. So I will always hold out a sliver of hope that what you say about the gospels is right. But you'll never get me to lay a bet on it unless you tighten up your game. Wow. Whether or not you get off the spiritual fence is the sole responsibility of a guy named poptart on an internet ...

Tell me you knew.

Because you said so? Or are you hanging out with the science crowd these days? Don't tell me... you've read about this stuff all over the internet and are therefore now an expert?

Really, the topic is irrelevant. The arrogance is thick.

OK... so just those scientists then. That's meaningful. Thanks!

The question of when life begins has been debated throughout history, but if we don't agree with you, we're a sick fuck? Jsc, this is not a subjective debate. This is not a matter of opinion. Life begins at some point, and there is no reason to believe it is any time other than conception. The only...

I can't speak for PSUFAN, but think I am. Not in a bad way, though.

I'm inclined to agree with everyone so far. I actually laughed out loud at this. Tom, I hope you are well! I'd actually prefer that people not be bigoted, racist homophobes. But MtLR prefers pretense. That's what you said he said, therefore it must be true. Personally, I'd rather know if someone wa...

So pretense is preferable?

I'm sorry, but the mother matters more.

So now you're saying you're only cool with abortions if the mother's life is at risk?
