    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    So clarify your position then: does the fact that murder is illegal have an effect on the murder rate - yes or no?

    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    Are you seriously asserting that if murder were legalised tomorrow, the murder rate would stay the same? Seriously??!

    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    Now you are just being ridiculous. Of course laws stop crimes like murder being committed. You have repeatedly 'argued' pathetic semantics with me over the last few pages: selfishness, sacrifice and now laws.

    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    So let's abolish laws then! Let's be anarchic. The law against murder doesn't stop murder so let's just make murder legal. That's the 'reasoning' you've put forward up there. It's ludicrous.

    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    "Love sacrificially" = "greater love has no man than he lay down his life for his friends". Jesus (not your Constitution or mine BTW), Whom we are called to emulate goes further in that He died for us whilst we were not yet His friends. I see that you agree that taxation is ok if it benefits...

    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    Presumably by the same token, then, you are against people being compelled to pay tax for defence and law enforcement, particularly when those benefit more people other than themselves? Oh and, BTW, I study Scripture daily, and that leads me to the conclusion that we are called to love...

    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    Phil 3:20 for starters. As Christians we have a duty to move beyond narrow nationalisms and heed the Lord's call to love our neighbours (including the Samaritans!) as ourselves. As He says in the Sermon on the Mount, even the pagans love those who are theirs. We are called to go further to avoid...

    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    Sounds like base selfishness to me; there are people other than Americans in the world you know.

    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    So, what, you think Trump is hastening the Second Coming by pulling out of Paris and that's therefore a Good Thing?!

    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    I sincerely hope He does come back and sort out this nonsense before it is too late. Then those who have been bad stewards and the sponsors of bad stewards will doubtless have some explaining to do. But it seems that He has been content thus far to let us commit our own follies: He didn't step...

    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    Well, the 97% figure comes from your own NASA, amongst others. Do you and Trump therefore think that this they also peddle 'fake nooze'?https://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus/ Are NASA on a 'false bandwagon' too?

    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    Whoah! Wow! Just Wow! When over 95% of scientists agree about anthropogenic climate change, the science 'isn't settled'?!! Oh. My. Word. Presumably this is all 'fake nooze' of 'alt facts'. I'm very sorry: I thought you wanted to have a serious debate on the pros and cons of the Paris...

    Trump: U.S. to withdraw from Paris climate pact, calls it 'unfair' for America

    Well, unless someone's one of those climate change denying fruitcake, the statement makes perfect sense: Mar-e-Lago WILL be below sea level in years to come if Trump gets his way. It's a shameful foolish act of a turkey begging for an early Thanksgiving. I'd laugh if it wasn't so serious for...

    Guess he's already bored with his Florida retreat as it will be underwater in due course thanks in part to him.

    CBO is in Folks (LOOSERS)

    And that's one of the reasons I could never be an American. I'm very happy with our 'socialized ' healthcare system here
