We all know by now what the burden of proof is and on to whom it falls. He who makes the claim must then prove it. Therefor Atheists have long said that we the faithful must provide proof of God's existence since we are claiming he exsists. But I say otherwise. The belief in God or God's in some form is not new, it is as old as humanity. However the lack of belive in any such deity is new VERY new. So Therefor I submit that it is not the idea of God''s existence which is the claim but rather the belief that there is no God which is the claim, and therefore the onus is on Atheists to prove that God dosent exsist.
As anyone who has meet me will tell you I don't exactly bye into communism. I've always believed it to be a nice idea that altimeter leed to sinister ends. Well now I have proof. This video (and the others in the serise) show communism ' s true colors. But what do you think is this video truth or propaganda?
I found this really great video explaining why socialized medicine despite being somewhat successfully implemented in other countrys simply can not work in the United States. Credit to howtheworldworks on YouTube
So I've been watching videos by learn liberty on youtube and they got me thinking. They are all about how government is unnessisary and how the free market can not only self regulate (wich I not only agree with but would argue that it is to some extent designed to do so) but that it can also regulate society. But the problem arose when they kept referencing the law as a factore in many of there purposed scenarios. My question is with out government who makes the laws? And if someone or some group of people are making laws then don't we have a government?
So for those of you that don't know public (government run tax funded) police departments all over the nation have been plagued by budgetary issues lately. This has given rise to the private police firms basicly companies that employ armed secuety guards with arrest powers to patrol property owned by the companie's clientele. This has got me thinking could policeing be privetised? This issue has defenetly been brought up before and I want to hear some opinions about it. Personally I'm a pretty pro free market pro small government guy but (ready for the shocker) Im pro public (government run tax funded) police. First of all I just find law enforcement (insuring domestic tranquility) to be a legitimate role of government and while I generally oppose taxes I do support property tax as it goes towards things that benefit me directly (like law enforcement) so I consider it to be a good thing (I still hate the income tax though) but what do you think would you prefer to have public police patroling your streets or would you rather have rent-a-cops protecting you?
This is why I hate Islam it is the religion of intolerance. While we here in the U.S bend the rules so that "native" Americans can smoke paodein as part of there rituals Christians in Iran have to suffer under the oppression of sharia law which un like our laws dosent make exceptions for religious practices and in fact out laws all religions other than Islam ARNT WE SUPPOSED TO BE OPPOSED TO THAT SORT OF THING WHY DO WE REFUSE TO PUT A STOP TO THIS? 100 years ago the muslems would be facing justice at the hands of the Crusading army's of Chrisindom for these transgressions. God they are lucky we moved past their level.
Remember when the Muslims are the minority they always maintain a low profile until they have the upper hand. Now they are possibly going to get protections not offered to any other religion in this country. And that tramples on the first ammendment rights of the rest of the citizens link below

l so in Islamic country's not only is it a corporal and in some cases capital crime for a women to be Raped (like that is her fault?) but if they complain about their sentence (usually called an appeal here in America) they get a worse one. Remind me why the HELL have we have not glassed the Middle East yet if ever there was a region of the world deserving of a nuclear holocost it's the middle east.

Now I believe in intelegent design also called Devine intervention. But I see evolutionists and creationists going at it all the time on this site and the evolutionists usually get the better of these arguments (just speaking form an outside prospective) but i want to know dose this argument for creationism have marit? http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=d3jrcP-o6Vs
There is a test you can take to see wether or not you are a libertarian. If you are unsure about where you stand politically and don't know which party to support you sould try it out. I just took it my score was 100% libertarian.
its very short. It's only a few questions you can take the test here.

Hitler Stalin, pol pot, Mao, Castro, IDE Amein, and countless other dictators forced gun controle on there people then killed them in massive genocides. If you support the disarming of law abiding privet citizens how can I or anyone els be sure your intentions are good? If you support gun control you support rape, murder, theft, home invasion, and genocide, its a package deal.
I hate it when I hear welfare checks and food stamps refered to as "entitlements" entitlements my ass. Those are tax funded handouts social security, retirement pay, VA benefits, police and fire department pensions, tax returns, retirement plans, those are entitlements because the recipients worked for them and earned them learn the difference.
Im a Revolver man myself. I like them because they are more rugged, sturdy, never jam, cost less, have less kick, are Easeir to clean and maintain, And you dont have to buy magazens and have to worry agout lodeing and unlodeing them. But I want to know which one you prefer are you a revolver man like me or are you all about the new toys.
And if you prefer semi-autos tell me why. Aside from higher amo capacity which realistically you don't need in a personel defense situation (but should still be an option if you feel it's nessisary for your defense) I don't see any real advantage to the finicky semi-autos. I mean if you have a gun that can jam up simply because you tilt your wrist back while firunconsciousness intentional habit some semi-auto shooters develops a result of the kick) then I think you need to reevaluate you weapon choice (but that's just me.)
Well liberals? Should we make bombs illegal? Should we put stricter restrictions on bombs? Oh I've got it how about we implement background checks on bomb, electircal parts, feralizer, and pressure cooker purchases that will fix the problem right? ;)
