I would have to say no. I'm sitting safely in my house so I don't see what I have to be saved from.

Is an asteroid heading for me or something?

CNN, Business insider, CBS, and Time Magazine.

I have also talked to at least a dozen Walmart employees to better understand what is going on.

There are 63 Sam's club stores closing or have already closed. All their employees are laid off or getting laid off. They said that they are going to convert about ten of them into distribution centers but this has affected over 10,000 people. Walmart has a long history of fucking over its employees but this is crazy.

The bonus is only a one time thing and the max is $1,000 dollars. You only get $1,000 dollars if you have been working for Walmart for 20+ years.

Evolution is the back bone of modern biology. It is a verifiable fact that living organisms will change over time. With every generation new mutations add information to the genetic code. Studying evolution helps medical professionals predict how actions we take now will effect the biology of the general population. One of the things they are concerned about is that thanks to the advent of modern C section procedures women with narrow birth canals who wouldn't have been able to survive natural childbirth in the past will become more common. Eventually it will be rare for anyone to be able to have a natural birth.

What kind of drugs are you on man?!??!!

I've never owned or needed to own a gun. I'm not some reactionary pussy who thinks everyone is coming to murder me.

I live in Louisiana so climate change is going to become a real problem in the coming years with every year being the hottest on record and hurricanes becoming more frequent.

I have great respect for the advancements of modern medicine do to scientific method. I would prefer not to have small pox or polio.

They also close 60 Sam's club stores without telling their employees. People showed up to work only to be told that they don't have a job anymore. You apparently are a very gullible person. No wait, you're just another right wing sycophant who doesn't like to use your brain. Nuance is just too far out of the realm of what your brain can process.

That's what you believe, not what Atheist believe.

The big bang theory only addresses the singularity because we don't have any method of examining what came before. You believe that a magical anthropomorphic immortal spoke the universe into being with an incantation spell.

We are held accountable to someone. It's called society. Societies punishment is called prison. Christianity say's that there isn't necessarily punishments you will have to face because your God's justice is directly contradicted by the idea that he is merciful. Mercy is the suspension of justice.

The crusades occurred from 1095 to 1291. There forces were 15,000 strong but in 196 years of their holy war 1.7 million people died. It was also during the time of swords and Spears, not machine guns and missiles.

The problem with that argument is that Christians all throughout history and all around the world have and do use violence to propagate their beliefs. The only reason why you don't see Christians in modern times and in developed nations commuting horrible acts of genocide is because they don't have as much power as they use to. The Christian time of genocide was called the crusades. The Buddhists did it in Japan and China and the Hindus have done it to Christians and Muslims all throughout history. The problem comes about when one religion gains total control over a country. That's why the founding Fathers gave us the first amendment.

I agree, but that is the goal of all religions. Name one religion that doesn't want everyone to believe their dogma. Whether it is through converting others or having kids and raising them to follow the religious dogma, the desired effect is the same.

I'm a Left Wing Atheist and although I don't care for there views just like I don't care for the Christians holding up the "God hates Fags" signs, I wouldn't want to take away their right to hold those views. This is America and everyone has the right to believe what they want. The only time it becomes a problem is when they try to impose those views on others and take rights away from people they don't agree with. Your Rights stop as soon as they encroach on mine.

Your question is formed incorrectly. A religion is a faith based belief that some form of self continues to exist after you die. You can be apart of an Atheistic religion like some forms of Buddhism or Taoism.

I do think human cloning should be legal but I am a bit biased I guess.

I don't get it. It just sounds like a bunch of contradictions. I guess I would have to read the book but if this is a direct quote then I would have to say he was just insane. Nazi's weren't socialists any more than North Korea is a Democratic republic.

You are talking about polytheistic paganism like voodoo or tribal God. They are not historically respected because they don't have longstanding religious texts. That means they are passed down through word of mouth. Have you ever played a game of telephone? Try doing it over hundreds of generation's. They are just put under a blanket term of polytheists.

It's impossible to be a Nazi and a Leftist. Nazi's are fascists which falls on the the extreme authoritarian right of the political spectrum. The extreme authoritarian Leftist are Communists. Calling a Leftist a Nazi is like saying that person is 100% white and 50% black. I've watched someone call another person a Nazi communist. That's like saying that person is 100% white and 100% black.

That's funny coming from the biggest snowflake on this site.

Yes, and the old testament didn't exist when the Rig Veda was written. That is why Hinduism is the oldest religion still being practiced.

The Islamic religion started in the year 610 CE so it has existed for 1408 years.

The word "Atheist" was used by the Romans to describe Christians because to the Romans, they didn't have a God because they worshipped a dead guy.

Revelations doesn't give the date of fulfillment, doesn't mention the names of any countries outside of the middle east, and it doesn't mention any modern people. It's just a mash up of vague incoherent nonsense.

It's so vague that you could never tell when it was being fulfilled. That's why the Christians thought it was the end times in every century since the first century.

You are just apart of another generation of nut jobs that us normal people have to deal with.

You have massive victim complex. Mao and Stalin formed a religion of the state. People of every religion have committed genocide against everyone else or each other at one time or another. You are taking something that has always been and called it a fulfilment of prophecy. That is the very opposite of a fulfilled prophecy. A prophecy is a very specific prediction that can only be fulfilled by that one event.

Is a prosecutor trying to make a one legal system where ever defendant goes to prison whether they are guilty or not?

To make a country work you need people from both sides of the political spectrum giving there perspective. Or countries problem is that both leading parties are right leaning. This has created an imbalance.

Usually that only happens if the baby is past due, the mother can't pass the baby naturally, or she doesn't want to deal with the pain of giving birth. If they got that far then obviously they chose to keep it. Abortion is about the mothers choice of whether she wants to be pregnant or not. It's her body. If my wife chose to abort our baby, I would have no right to tell her she couldn't. It's not my body. My wife has extreme physical problems and they gave her an 85% chance of dying from the pregnancy. Her pelvis is more metal than bone and she broke two screws in her spine carrying our baby to term. She is the bravest woman I know, but I wouldn't have thought any less of her if she decided that she didn't want to go through with the pregnancy.

The quote you used was " you are just trying to minimize loss of life".

You cut out the context. The context was" if the mother died".

I said every fetus has the right to live. That means if the mother is dead then your only option is to save the baby. I said this because that is the only reason why you would cut a fetus out of a woman to save it.

You asked "Do you see a difference in terminating a pregnancy in order to destroy the fetus vs terminating a pregnancy in order to save the fetus?"

I couldn't conceive of any instance where you would have to terminate a pregnancy in order to save the fetus because by definition the womb is basically the healthiest place to keep a fetus that isn't ready to be born.

Your questions was idiotic.

I already said that every fetus has the right to live, but there is a second clause. It doesn't have the right to live at someone else's expense. If the mother is dead then saving the baby is the most logical option. There is no right that a dead person has that would justify letting someone else die.

As it pertains to abortion, the fetus doesn't have the right to use the woman's body against her will to stay alive. If it lives, good. If it dies then that just means that it was using that woman to stay alive, which it doesn't have the right to do if it is against her will.

You can twist what I said all you want. That just shows that you can't defeat my argument as it was stated.

The only reason why you would have to do that is if the woman is dead or the fetus is having health problems that needs to be treated right away. In that case you are just trying to minimize loss of life. I already said that every fetus has the right to life. It just doesn't have the right to live at someone else's expense. If it comes out and lives, good. Whether it lives or dies is irrelevant to the fact that a woman has the right to choose what goes on in her body.

Some of them might have but on the whole, no. The Bible is irrelevant. They saw people that were having a ruff go of things and they helped them out. You are arguing for correlation and not causation.
