Dude, for Christ's sake. (Pun intended)

Create a new thread for this crap.

You clowns sound like stoned College freshmen in a dorm lobby at 4 am.

It's the 'political thread', not the 'discuss theology' thread.

The lengths these liars go to in order to claim something is false shows what a joke fact checkers are. It’s all about wording with them or outright fabrication (this happened but I’ll say it’s false).

https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-wef-idUSKBN2AP2T0


It features a man who says: “Now let’s talk about their stated goal, ‘by 2030 you’ll own nothing and be happy’. So, the question is, how do they get us to that point? How can over 10 years they get us from having private property to owning nothing?”

The WEF does not have a ‘stated goal’ to remove everyone’s private property by 2030. As addressed in previous Reuters fact checks, these claims likely originated from a WEF social media video from 2016 that stated eight predictions about the world in 2030, including: “You’ll own nothing. And you’ll be happy. What you want you’ll rent, and it’ll be delivered by drone.” (here)


Danish politician Ida Auken, who wrote the prediction in question (here), said it was not a “utopia or dream of the future” but “a scenario showing where we could be heading - for better and for worse.”
 
Good stuff.

But I don't get, "These are people who, whether they are first generation or fifth or sixth generation Texans, came to the U.S. legally."

How do people who are not first generation Americans come to the US legally?
 
You do know that various species can sometimes interbreed, such as wolves & dogs & coyotes, to produce viable mixtures which are neither of the parents' species, right?
That's not what evolution claims happened. The new animals are still part of the same 'KIND.' There is no new genetic information being written, only exchanged. Evolution claims molecules-to-man. Try and keep up with the rest of the class.
 
Fair but that point still stands. The good and the bad should be taught, not just the good. Just because I pose an opinion or you pose one doesn't mean we think each other are evil but it seems like Gassy has that opinion of liberals and that's not a good look.
You don't think it's evil to trample little old Indian ladies with horses? Huh. Most of the rest of the civilized world does. YOUR side does that sort of thing. Ours doesn't. Even Bill Maher, archliberal, thinks you guys have gone full Hitler on this one.
 
There's levels to this though. You can be a fan of a team, proud of what they've done in a given year but there are fans who are so fanatical they'd resort to violence over their fandom.

We're all proud to be born in this country but there are people that would resort to violence because they think a group of people is superior to another. That's the level of nationalism I fear and the rhetoric on the right is trending in that direction.

You see it on this board where people would literally kill democrats if they were in power. That's a dangerous level of nationalism.
Explain exactly what "rhetoric" on the right suggests they are "superior" to another. I'm assuming you're trying to make this a "White Supremacist" argument? Exactly what "rhetoric" points you towards that end?
 
So it's like the 2% Neanderthal DNA Euro people have?
Neanderthals are not essentially different from anyone you might see walking down the street. An early specimen’s oddities were likely due to disease. Modern DNA analysis show that they are just part of the human race.

Contrary to their reputation as some sort of sub-human brute, Neanderthals displayed a great deal of technological skill in the manufacture of their tools. Neanderthals were not only fully human but evidently were very skilled people coping with the harsh world of the post-Flood Ice Age.

Any more questions?

pretty sure I learned about many of the bad events in our history during my History and civics classes in high school back in the 80's. The difference being that it wasn't taught through the lens of separating the races and telling white kids that they are oppressors or telling black kids that they are systemically oppressed and it's their white classmates fault.

Tell me what is more divisive than things like CRT and identity politics?
 
MAGA Sheep are to stupid to look up facts. Their tiny brains can't comprehended numbers.

MAY 2021 - 2.96
MAY 2019 - 2.94
MAY 2018 - 2.98

Gas prices are exactly the same as they were under Trump, his sheep just blindly believe anything they see on twitter. Gas always goes up this time of year because of summer blends and increased travel. The spike will definitely be higher this year because of pent up demand for travel and production disruptions caused by greedy republicans.

They're still elephants. And NOTICE! that mutations ALWAYS involve the LOSS of genetic information, not the GAIN of information. Thanks for proving my point that 'evolution' is consistent on this.
You have no idea what they will look like or even if their DNA will resemble elephants at all a billion years from now. And that's assuming they don't go extinct.
It's all hypothesis and conjecture. Claiming to know it all as a human here for 70-100 years is the epitome of arrogance.
 
“Literally kill democrats if they were in power” 😂

Don’t need power to go around killing Dems. We simply don’t do it because we aren’t like todays liberals who *do* actually do that sort of thing.

Go put on a MAGA hat and walk around any major city and see who likes killing who. Power or no power.

Now that's funny - because your logic fails when applied to the sheer speculation of an evolutionary 'scientist' who claims to know what happened billions of years ago. You just shot your whole position in the head.

And it's the "height of arrogance" not the epitome. Learn English. But I do agree - evolutionists are the pinnacle of arrogance, denying God's existence but putting themselves in His place.

There is ZERO falsifiability with evolutionary genetics. But we DO KNOW that ZERO new information is created whenever there is a mutation. That is a scientific FACT. So all available science DISPROVES any evolutionary theory. Therefore your puppetmasters are forced to invent new, wild theories to try and explain it. Example: The so-called "Cambrian Explosion" is simply another way of saying "Creation" but leaving God out of it.

The math says there isn't enough time for evolution in genetics.

The genetic differences between organisms are mathematical show-stoppers for evolution. A simplistic comparison of human and chimpanzee DNA shows that the genetic divergence is at least 4%. (The difference is certainly much larger than this number which was derived from a technique not as precise as lining up sequences as in our example above. This “4% difference” does not take into account the different number of chromosomes in the two genomes, the different arrangement of genes among the chromosomes, and a lot of non-coding, but regulatory DNA that show significant variations. If you take these real issues into account, as you should, the divergence is 15 – 20%.)

But let’s assume the measly 4% often quoted. How big is 4% in the DNA? It doesn’t sound big, does it? But the human genome has the information content of one thousand 500-page books. A 4% change would be about 40 large books, equivalent to about 12,000,000 words. We are expected to believe that random mutation plus natural selection (somehow driven by the right combinations of zillions of environmental changes) can generate 12 million words in a precisely meaningful sequence – just to get the “little” divergence between chimps and people.

But the evolutionist always says that “given enough time – millions and millions of years,” such miracles can happen. But evolutionists claim that human evolution would have taken place over the last 10 million years, with creatures like humans and apes sharing a common ancestor. Is that long enough? Note that a human generation is about 20 years. You have to hope very optimistically for rapid mutation and natural selection. In fact, detailed population genetics calculations have shown that only about 1700 mutations could arise in a population over a 10 million year period. That’s only a “page or two” out of the required 40 large books.

As IMPOSSIBLE as it is to go from raw materials to the first functional proteins, and as impossible as it is to go from at least hundreds of functional proteins to the wonderfully integrated system of a single cell, the impossibilities are yet unimaginably greater to generate the information content of multicellular creatures, like “simple” invertebrates. And from there to fish, to amphibians, to reptiles, etc., the NEW INFORMATION CONTENT is ridiculously great, but must be generated by mutations and natural selection. Wow . . . what blind faith!

I don't think there's anything more divisive than identity politics. We see it everywhere including on this board. It's okay to have a set of beliefs but it's not okay to think someone is evil** just because their ideas are the opposite of one's own. That's where I was getting at replying to Gassy.

**unless it's actually evil, such as the calling for killing people.
 
We've warned the libs on here many times, their push to bring in all these illegals is going to backfire on them. We've stated a number of times, the hispanics that came here the legal way and who's decendents migrated here legally to live the American dream, greatly resent the ones who come here illegally.

Oh, and that whole LatinX nonsense? That doesn't fly very well with them either.
 
Do think there is some hope for this country when liberal states (polling) are not happy with the job Biden is doing. It was ridiculous for these folks to get emotional about mean Tweets but its another level when you cannot afford to full up your gas tank, feed your family and not be able to heat your home due to the incredible price increases. Then add in the increase in crime which is now making the suburban women not feel as safe plus their children being used as political pawns by school boards. Rubber is going to meet the road sooner or later because it is going to get much worse.
Mean Tweets are the least of the reasons Trump was voted out. He was divisive as hell. He pitted Americans against one another and was only the President of the Red States of America.
Nobody was in love with Biden but saw him as the lesser of two evils. His attempt to overthrow the government and remain in power only solidified that choice.
And Trump calling Putin "saavy" and a "genius" during the worst military crisis in Europe since WW2 is pathetic boot licking. They are using Trump and Tucker Carlson clips on Russian state tv right now as examples of Putin being supported in America. F'ing pathetic.
Hopefully we have better choices in 2024. If it's Biden and Trump again....our country will just sink further toward failing democracy status. Both of them suck azz.

Give it a rest DukeBlu. Nobody is buying what you're selling, your silly "can't we all just get along" tripe. You're a phony.

Evolution is a scientific theory that is research based and just makes more sense to me than creationism.
But if you split the difference you could say God created the environment for evolution to take place.
At the end of the day nobody truly knows. Hopefully, someday we will.

LOL that you believe man coming from apes makes more sense than that there is a real God who created everything.

Once again, note that evolution – to qualify as a science – must provide evidence that these events have actually occurred! Not only is the evidence lacking, but any mathematical analysis shows that these transformations of species are impossible!

This is analogous to a district attorney hoping to convict someone, not only with no evidence, but with overwhelming data that proves that the suspect could not possibly be responsible.
 
You do know that various species can sometimes interbreed, such as wolves & dogs & coyotes, to produce viable mixtures which are neither of the parents' species, right?
Everything you listed is the same species. You know that, right?

To your other quote, nah never really thought it was funny. But i understand a lot of people love it. Cool. Last sitcom i watched was Barry and China Joe trying to transform the greatest country ever.

Make no mistake, it's their ultimate goal. Will it happen by 2030? probably not that quickly. But a lot can change in 8 years. They've made it clear, they are infiltrating federal governments with their people and pushing policies that align with their stated goals. Klaus Schwab is a Totalitairan intent on reshaping the world in his image. The people who think this is going to result in some grand utopia are in for a rude awakening.

I've seen people on here brush things like Covid or The Great Reset off like it's nonsense by saying "yeah, all these countries all got together to form this one big plot against the people of the world". Well the WEF is your evidence of just that happening.

Well, I'll agree that speciation of, say, finches, does occur. But you know what, they are still finches. Show me the speciation from finch to monkey or another family of any sort. That is the issue and it is nothing more than hypothesis.

The Eastern part of Ukraine want to be part of Russia so it seems kind of ass backwards to fight a war over it. The issue is how far will Putin push the land claim beyond that. The Russian guerilla forces already control most of the ethnic Russian territory. But now Putin is staging troops in Moldova and Belarus. That is contesting the parts of Ukraine that don't want to rejoin Russia including Kyiv. Right now Putin is just flexing to see what he can gain. He already got the important Naval ports. The only thing left of value is the old shipyards and more control over the Black Sea.

How anyone could question these countries not coordinating with each other is laughable. You think they all just happen to be in unison on their actions and their phrasings by mere coincidence? Look how quickly that happened too.

What a load of crap. There is one party in this country that might side against the USA with Iran, Russia, North Korea, China, Isis, Al-Qaeda and alien invaders from Mars. And it's not the GOP.

I'd much rather have nationalism than that.

How many trump supporters shot and killed china joe supporters? Now do the opposite. Several china joe supporters murdered trump supporters BC they were trump supporters. You need to expand your news sources.
 
BS . Name ONE time ANYONE has observed two animals mating and it produced a new species? Even Dion admits that is basic biology. They will always produce an offspring of the same kind with a variation, but never a new species.

This destroys your religion of macro-evolution.
Those variations add up over time to become new species. You can clearly see that in the fossil record. Where do new species come from then? God creates an entire population out of thin air and plops them down somewhere? Why has that never been observed then? By your own standard that means it doesn’t happen right?
