Err, so your cells just start producing viruses for no reason?

Do you know what a plasmid is?

So in other words, you have no evidence that Christians cannot read a story with witchcraft in it, so I'm forced to conclude that it is A-OK to read Harry Potter. I'll be off reading Cinderella (uh-oh, that magical fairy godmother!) to my son, then.

I am at least not an existentialist (far out man are we really here or is it an illusion-puff, puff toke toke)

Better see a doctor, I think you've got more problems than most of us ever dream of.

Any more patronizing and I will call you a flaming democrat hypocrite which you would be.

Plasmids are used by cells. Are you conceding that viruses are cells?

Well, that would be a convenient way of ending the debate, wouldn't it?

No, and you wouldn't have asked that if you knew what a plasmid was.

Why are you running from your racist statement in #561?

If it was such a valid and cool thing to say, why not defend it instead of play these kiddie games.

Everyone here should avoid the creep until she explains her racist statement attributed to christians in #561

You are the one that has consistently used Ad Hominem jabs. Stop it.

You and NewLand presented evidence that it's naughty to actually BE a witch, not read about one, and I already knew that. I've already said twice that there's a large difference between reading about one for entertainment, and actually being one.

Have a great night :)

Enshrine away. What is the agent, and what is acted upon?

Are the cells free agents, reproducing viruses at will? Or are they being acted upon by the viruses, for the purposes of the virus?

I don't think I am using ad hominem jabs.

Prove it.

No, but they are living. Are virii free agents, reproducing without the cell at will?
