 'Western culture has made a fundamental change in its religious base. We have exchanged that One who said, "I am the Truth" (John 14:6), for the incredibly expensive doctrine of Freud and the words of all his various disciples. Our new religion says with Pontius Pilate, "What is truth?" and teaches that our status is one of "original victim" rather than "original sin." --Carol Tharp That's beautiful. With effort, with a great deal of work, I can sometimes trim things down to concise statements. Those who do it with ease are truly gifted. Here now, for those who perhaps haven't considered it, is another example of concise work: "And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with his wrath?" - Thomas Jefferson That tiny two-question argument is worth hanging onto. No scoffer, no enemy of liberty can answer it. Even more surprising they don't try. It won't shut them up; they'll change subjects and keep going like it was never there, flinging insults as they go. But they never meet the issue, ever.
Dark Matter + Dark Energy = Dark Truth"We find that such evidence demonstrates that the ID argument is dependent upon setting a scientifically unreasonable burden of proof for the theory of evolution." - Judge Jones Kitzmiller case http://www.talkreason.org/articles/Falsify.cfm"To Compel A Man To Furnish Funds For The Propagation Of Ideas He Disbelieves And Abhors Is Sinful And Tyrannical." - Thomas Jefferson "And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with his wrath?" - Thomas Jefferson
