Because one person's opinion determines the truth about something that affects billions of people. Sure, seems legit.

Do you think any of the Abrahamic religions are beautiful, with such venegful deities?
It seems like we now see the reason for the motivation.

They are both beautiful and ugly. Can't you wrap your head around that?

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, is not easily angered, it keeps no account of wrongs. Love takes no pleasure in evil, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be restrained; where there is knowledge, it will be dismissed. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when the perfect comes, the partial passes away.

Isn't that beautiful? Or am I insane?

Love conquers everything but love is based conditionally with the Abrahanic faiths.
So its a false love and that kind of love is ugly, as its based off an insecurity and fear.
Would you sit by whilst a woman was being threatened with violence in a relationship and yet swore she was in love with her partner?

Just answer me how that is beautiful Ben?
That to me is ugly and the bases for the faith of this deity is the same
Its eternal punishment if you do not love deity

So how on earth is that beautiful?

by Ben Reilly Thu Jun 23, 2016 8:11 am

Well, I can see a certain (weird) kind of beauty in loving a partner who hurts you, as I've been that person ... it's not healthy, but being human isn't really healthy for that matter. But that's beside the point.

You can't force people to think as you do -- even if you're convinced you're right. If you do, you're no better than ISIS. You have to let people do things you think are wrong -- even horribly wrong -- so that they'll hopefully learn, or their children will, etc. I sat back and watched my country re-elect George W. Bush. I told anybody who'd listen what a bad decision that was, but at the end of the day I wouldn't have forced any of them to vote my way instead of theirs, even if I had that power.

If we didn't have problems, we wouldn't have a purpose, after all.

I am sorry to hear you went through that, but to believe its beautiful, is allowing lust and insecurities not love to rule your emotions.
That is not having a go either, many people have fallen prey to this when they think they have been in love. Love is freely given both ways, and when it is conditional or not given in return, it ceases to be love at all. I am not forcing anyone to do anything, as this is a debate. Seriously, i have lost track of how many falsified claimed you have made this morining about me. Where i am trying to reason points, you simply accuse.

Any relationship requires work, but love is the bases of all happy relationships and its because of love for each other that people place each other first before themselves. When that love is not replicated though it ceases to be love and a yearning.
Again if a person uses the threat of violence in order to cower someone through fear misleading them into believeing they are in love,. that is dosmestic violence and yet the abrahamic faiths are based on this exact same principle.

Yes i am well aware there are some lovely passages and teachings within the religion, but that is all irrelevant, when the main character this deity, is based on the worst form of abuse that plays off peoples insecutities with death. To me, I find that appalling. No parent creates you out of wanting or needed love in return, they created us simply out of love.

Omar Mateen didn't always fit the profile of a would-be radicalized killer, a friend told NBC News.
In 2014, American-born Mateen was remarried to a second wife and had a new son — and his friend, Mohammad Malik, had never heard him express extremist views or say anything homophobic.
But after a young man who went to their Florida mosque was killed in a suicide bombing in Syria that year, one thing did trouble Malik: Mateen said he was listening to recordings of Anwar al-Awlaki, the radical Islamic cleric killed by a U.S. drone strike in Yemen three years earlier. The suicide bomber, Moner Mohammad Abu-Salha, had said in videos before he was killed that al-Awlaki inspired him.

Mohammed Malik. NBC News

"It threw up a red flag for me," Malik told NBC News on Tuesday. "I asked him what he thought of them and he said they were very powerful, which raised a red flag even more for me."
Malik dialed the FBI. Agents investigated, but later determined that Mateen — who had been the focus of another probe the year before for "inflammatory" comments to co-workers — was not a threat.

That was the last time that Malik had thought about Mateen's potential terrorist ties, until June 12 — when the 29-year-old slaughtered 49 people at a gay nightclub in Orlando and pledged allegiance to ISIS in a 911 call amid the rampage.

Malik, 43, revealed in a Washington Post essay on Monday how he tried to tip off the FBI about his friend, whom he had first met in 2006 at a family dinner and would stay in touch mostly through texts and phone calls.
"My hope and guess is that (the FBI) did the best job that they could (investigating him)," Malik added.
His observations of Mateen add another layer to a man whom co-workers said fostered a "toxic" work environment and was prone to expressing racist views against blacks and sexist views against women.

I'll leave it up to the judgement of billions of people, who saw fit to throw out monarchy, dictatorships, human sacrifice, etc., but still saw something redeeming about their own religions -- enough at least to live lives in which they didn't hurt anybody intentionally, and often did great things based on the religious beliefs they were taught.

Really, man, I think your principle problem is you expect everything to be perfect right now. Not only would that take a lot of time ... but it's really never going to be perfect, not while we're alive. There will always be a new battle to fight. That's who we are, and hopefully we can make it until some point in the far-distant future where it's not.

So you be Bernie Sanders and I'll be Hillary Clinton. You be the idealist whose ideas are wildly inappropriate for the here and now, rubber-meets-the-road reality of the present, and I'l be the pragmatist, playing political football and realizing that if the opposition concedes three yards at a time, you take it and try to win with it.

I do not expect people to be perfect but understand simply when they contradict in their views.
You simply do not realise that you are in fact inadvertantly defending wahhabism, as this is where the belief coimes from for Muslim women to compulsary where the Burka. You should be critical of the belief around this but think you are thenbeing a bigot to those who are misguded to think its a choice to wear. Its not a choice, the doctrine is the choice and again its through condming bad beliefs, that we have seen progression happen in the west. Once irish families placed their daughters in the Magdelene laundries, where many suffered appallingly. Are you saying the parents have the right to choose this on their child, bcause they were pregnant?
Again beliefs should never be defended and be open to criticism, but you think it means criticism of people.
By defending those who claim to choxse to wear, you inadvertantly also then condemn those forced to wear by failing to speak out against the belief system that forces women to believe they are ashamed of their bodies.
I am the realist, and its you who is the one failing to see where you are trying to do good, it is actually supporting things that are bad,
That does not make you are bad person, just misguided

Didge, I'm saying as fucked-up as many of our beliefs are, this is where we find ourselves and "it is what it is." We're not going to convince most people that religious rules are stupid.

What we can do is differentiate between what is harmful and what is harmless, and a woman thinking she should wear a damn head covering is harmless in the grand scheme of things.

Ben we did, it took a few centuries in the west but it happened and its working.
Soceities progressed in the west because people were not afraid to speak out on what they saw as wrong even if it upset people along the way. I mean look at the Vietnam war, do you think all those people protesting, who did upset many American families, due to their children serving. Did this all in vain and that it simply was not worth it?
Do you think the American civil war simply due to the loss of 500,000 + dead, was not worth it even though it brought about an end to slavery?

Between people wanting their 2 seconds of fame and the media beating the FBI to check out these 'possible fruit cakes' and their 'what if' stories before they get to publication; because that's what media/newsprint do - they do not sit on any story if they can 'ONE UP' their competition for a possible exclusive.

Doesnt matter. One day we will all know I guess.
Until then, I remain neutral.

And that in a 'nut shell' is the most responsible attitude to have; this entire horrible event is like one huge rotting ole smelly onion that the FBI is trying to separate one layer at a time ...mean while every nut case that sat within 50 yards of this cretin - shared a playpen with him while they were in diapers is calling the FBI center and pouring out their - 'have I got a story for you about Mateen' "...The Orlando LGBT nightclub killer described himself as an “Islamic soldier” out to avenge the US war on the Islamic State, according to his phone conversations with police during the 12 June massacre..." - Page 4 3143589420

Yes isn't it amazing how so many people come out of the woodwork and claim to have "known" what these shooters were up to?

Eds, I can't believe that you question the news media so, and yet you are the first person to start a thread whenever the news media informs you of an event. Then you believe the event occurred, but you begin to question details, question anyone in authority, and call witnesses liars. What do you believe?

And more important for us, What standards do you follow for what to believe, who to believe, and what facts to take issue with? I'd like to know, because I could then follow you better.

You seem to invent a story within a story. Yes, the event occurred, but then you selectively disbelieve and cherry-pick your facts, and invent an entirely new narrative within the original story.

So you leave us with a new story, but no standards by which to sort things out. Could you do us this one favor, and gives us some of your standards of what to believe, and what not to believe? Let's begin with the media: shall we simply disbelieve a story in the press, and discount everything thereafter?

So, there was no shooting in Orlando because it's all press lies. Carry on...

Sigh.
I have never said there wasn't a shooting.

I can't begin to unravel your confusion when you have misquoted what I've said or reinvented what I've said.

I have explained myself over and over again. I can't keep on doing it.

I've just finished discussing this with Didge so read my replies to him.

I'm talking on a more general level. This is what you said:

Come on! You've seen it yourself even in the basic of terms: one week we can't eat eggs then a year later, we can.
It's not always "misreporting" you know or "bad science"

If it's not "misreporting" and it's not "bad science", then what is it? You are certainly building your reader up to the conclusion that it's a conspiracy.

Let me give some clues to investigation: Look for questions without answers, and answers without questions. When you have a planted story, you have an answer without a question. So...the issue is, why is someone giving us an answer when we haven't even asked a question? Why is the story being planted?

But you never follow through. By raising the issue that things are not as they seem, you tell us that the story isn't right. But you never go on to the next level: why are we being misled?

by eddie Thu Jun 23, 2016 4:39 pm

Because I don't know the answers quill, that's why I can't answer my own questions?
Surely me saying "I don't know" means I haven't the answers.

So I come to a debate forum to ask others but I think the problem is, is there are too many churlish people here that call you names but have no other offers, or you get people who put across their point and you say, thanks, but I still don't agree and then you get called names churlishly.

So I don't really bother.

When I debate on what you all call "conspiracy sites" - where I put the opposite view across (like the ones I get here) I get answered and no name-calling or churlishness, even if I don't agree.
So you can see my dilemma.

I get bored easily by rudeness - I can be so much ruder and nastier, no one can be a patch on how nasty I can get if I really wanted - but I don't want to, need to and it's boring.

So you see my dilemma. I often walk away in the middle of a debate like you do, or Ben does, or Syl does....cos I can't be bothered with it all.

Polite

Is that godlike productions Eddie?

behave, they are a bunch of fruit and nutcases and have read how abusive they are to people when first tess pointed me that way.
I have never joined and never would, as most people would be in hsyterics at the bullshit that is posted on there
You believe what you want, i am simply going to ignore you on these type of threads as you end up spoiling them for the rest of us and waste our time whilst we spend pages trying to explain simply things you cannot grasp
This is what will happen when you continually talk crap

It's an 'either/or' situation. Even if you don't know the answers, you still know the direction your questions should be going. So ask them.

A really good witness statement. Has anyone seen this very detailed statement?

by Guest Thu Jun 23, 2016 7:10 pm

Am watching it now, nothing so far on faries or lizardmen

Yes, it was on MSNBC yesterday. Unfortunately, she had no prior relationship with the shooter and she has no personal knowledge of his motives. All she has is what she heard on the 911 call, and we have already heard and seen the transcript of what was said in that call.

by eddie Thu Jun 23, 2016 8:37 pm

I have no idea what you're going on about.
She was on the floor in the bathroom of the club.
Have you heard the whole thing properly?

Indeed, she heard him talking numeroeus times and no doubt being as its on the phone she had no idea what was going on. She is trapped as a hostage in the bathroom and thus unable to know that at this moment the Police by their covering fire had forced him to retreat into the bathroom. That the Police werre able to then able to enter the club and retrieve hostages. So she is going to hear other gunfire, which will be from the Police. Its easy for people to think there might be more, but she never saw any others but throught there might have been more due to conversations. This is normal in the confusion and adreniline that takes over when people are petrified in such a hostage situation. At no point as we both agree does she say there are other gunmen, she only assumes there could be as she does not know who he is talking to. Its a very good telling witness accounts of the confusion that happens during such a terrorist attack

Two or three times. I understand she was on the floor of the bathroom. Does that add anything to her story? No. She never met the shooter; she was just a witness to what we've all been over and over, several times. We've even got a transcript of the 911 call.

She's a sweet girl, and it's not her fault that she has nothing more to add.
