    Washington Death Penalty Suspended By Governor Jay Inslee

    Are you really saying that causing someone 50 or more years of suffering and misery is your preferred choice?

    Washington Death Penalty Suspended By Governor Jay Inslee

    As Alcott points out above, that is a problem of your own making. So you're okay with a lifetime of suffering and misery--which also applies to those who *might* be wrongfully imprisoned. A lifetime of suffering and misery. I have a newfound insight as to your character, CTB. And for...

    'I Didn't Join to Be Sacrificed': U.S. Troops Fed Up with Risky Afghanistan Strategy

    Then why didn't the Democrats in the House and the Senate at that time stop it? I doubt you'll answer this, as whenever I post something that's opposite to your perception of reality, you completely ignore me....

    Washington Death Penalty Suspended By Governor Jay Inslee

    Technically, you're only partially correct. It's not the executions that cost more than keeping the person in prison; it's the automatic appeals, separate prison arrangements for those on death row, etc., etc. Prison's not supposed to be a nice place. It's supposed to be a place that people...

    Washington Death Penalty Suspended By Governor Jay Inslee

    Okay, that just doesn't make a lick of sense. How do you justify that an execution is less expensive than life in prison? Second, how do you justify that life in prison is a worse punishment than execution? If someone murdered your wife, and you are then asked to pay taxes each year to ensure...

    Thank you! And now it's back to Yeshua to read what you've written, and if he doesn't agree, explain why. Of course, it might also help if people start citing their references for their determinations of words (for example, the use of the word "perversion" in Jude; in the 8-10 different bible...

    Thought police: Firms must swear health law not a factor in firings

    But...but...how else are we going to force those businesses to do what we want them to do?

    CTB -- I'd still like an answer to the questions I asked on page 1:

    Now you're on track. He's obviously relying on the large number of commentaries that agree with the conventional thought that Jude is referring to homosexuality; so address those. Why would all those commentaries look at the word studies and come to the conclusion that homosexuality was what...

    Looking for a good answer

    Look, I don't agree with Yeshua much. But what you're saying here is worse than what you're accusing Yeshua of. You have the opportunity to increase the knowledge and understanding of a fellow Christian--but you won't do it. It almost seems that you don't mind condemning your brother in...

    That's a matter of interpretation and understanding. It's easy to say Yeshua is wrong. Prove it.

    19 Statistics About The Drugging Of America That Are Almost Too Crazy To Believe

    Not arguing that. If I were to take the graphs and the observations I stated above at face value, I'd state that during the time period when prescription drugs have increased, life expectancy has increased, thus supporting your statement. But at the same time, we should also be wondering: Are...

    He's given you the scripture. It's now up to you to educate him as to how/why he's interpreting it incorrectly.

    19 Statistics About The Drugging Of America That Are Almost Too Crazy To Believe

    So we've had an increase from 43% of the population to 48% who have been prescribed at least 1 drug; and from 6% to 10.7% of those who are taking 5 or more prescribed drugs ... and during the same time frame, life expectancy has raised from about 76.5 to ~78. Not a true cause-and-effect, but...

    Huh. No mention of his Nobel Peace Prize?

    Playing well with others...

    Okay, practice saying this a few times: "I am perfectly willing to give others whom do not agree with me the respect to practice their convictions." If you can't say this line, then you have your answer as to why. They probably don't feel like you're respecting their convictions. Notice...

    19 Statistics About The Drugging Of America That Are Almost Too Crazy To Believe

    ITL - is there a similar chart that shows amount of "legal" drug usage? As drugs become more prevalent - "healthier living through medication" - is there an indication of the amount of drugs being prescribed that correlates to the lifespan chart?
