Blessed are the poor in spirit:

for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

I've always believed the Beatitudes to be the most beautiful of Christ's teachings.

Is that a joke or something?

I thought that "the fall" was the catch-all excuse for any features of the human body that seem less than optimal?

For instance you and your sister (or a cousin, or an uncle) "share common ancestry". This does not mean that your originated FROM your sister (or cousin, or uncle).

I've been wondering if maybe he's from Arkansas.

(With apologies to any rational people living in Arkansas)

"unless you are a Muslim or Atheist or some other Christ hating type person.

Come now, didn't anyone ever tell you about making sweeping generalizations like that?

I'm an atheist. I don't hate Christ. I don't believe he existed, (that's just my opinion) but I don't hate him.

Ah Chuck, even most Messianics I know believe Josephus quotes about Jesus are dubious.

Steven:

The veracity of Josephus is of little concern to those who are lost.

They are in the flesh and think they are right.

I can not change the mind of an unbeliever.

All I can do is preach the Holy Word of G-d.

I am not saying that they are equivalent claims. Dimensio has made no assertive answer to men from monkeys or not, only that she/he did not say it,

But Dimensio does make this claim

//Humans and monkeys share common ancestry.//

So what is the common ancestry? Thats all nothing else. Just the facts.., MAM.

Real and specific facts please.

Humans are not descendant from monkeys. Dimensio knows it. He's just being disingenuous, to use a euphemism.

Evolution is all speculation and zero speciation.

Thats the core of all evo and they bring no facts for it.

The theory itself then becomes a tool of secular liberals to undermine the bedrock of our nation.

Maybe thats why they go ballistic when the finally are faced with one one their assertions

The only examples I have ever seen of people screaming liar fraud bla bla this much would be the movie footage of Nazi judges at the peoples tribunal's, or someone being drug off into the institution.

"Evolution is all speculation and zero speciation."

How do you like my new line?

Maybe I should use it as my tagline?

I'll wait until I get a response to it from the Darwin worshippers before I use it as my tagline. Their response to it will determine whether I'll adopt it or not.

I like consensus.

Neat tagline lol

Yes you must kneel at Darwin Central, or even worse convince them you have swallowed the koolaid.

"I'd rather be a pig than a Creationist"

That's okay, Oztrich Boy, because you obviously have your head in the sand.

One day it will be Mexican sand, because you and your kind insist on carrying out a war upon believers in this country, with the predictable result.

Brush up on your Espanol, Amigo.

Just as Christians overcame the mightiest empire in the world, Rome, just as our Jewish brothers survive against what would normally insurmountable odds; just as Christian patriots threw off the yoke of the oppressive British empire; just as Christian abolitionists led the charge against slavery, we will overcome you as well.

You can call it "White Horse's Theory of Revolution".

So Oztrich Boy, you and your secular humanist pals who have contributed nothing to our great country, or the world in general, except misery, will find yourselves losing what you would call 'survival of the fittest'.

There is a difference between a scientific theory and a scientific law, but not the one you are hoping for.

There is a difference between Americans and Canadians, one I am very glad for, but not much difference between Canadians and the French, one that is quite expected.

Yes, Dimensio knows it. No, Dimensio is not being "disingenuous". You are. Or maybe you're just invincibly stupid. Dimensio repeatedly (and correctly) said that humans are not descended from monkeys, and ALSO (and correctly) that humans and monkeys share common ancestry.

Even RunningWolf understands that these are not equivalent statements. (See #1947) You're the last holdout in claiming that is "disingenuous" to say "share common ancestry with" because it implies "descended from".

I tried to explain this to you in a childishly simple way: that you share common ancestry with your sister, but this doesn't mean you descended from your sister. Is there something about your familial circumstances that makes this example confusing to you?

Well, since you ask... I vote for the new tagline. A good, old fashioned creationist lie is preferable to isolationist paleocon racism any day.

PREMPTION: Why do I suggest racism? Let's look:

Demographic is destiny. Don't hire 3rd world illegal aliens nor support businesses that hire them.

Why "3rd world" illegals, and not just illegals? Why "demographic," especially in connection with "3rd world"?

For instance one of the most positive demographics is found among Pakistani immigrants. They are equivalent to Indians in having the highest education level among all immigrant groups, in spite of the fact that Pakistan is even more "3rd world" then Mexico, and are the most rapid in providing net benefit, moving up the economic scale and providing tax revenues in excess of public services consumed.

I'll admit I could be wrong, but I get the impression you're more concerned with the COLOR of immigrants than their objective demographics OR their legal status.

Look get off it will you.

The difference in those two statements is nothing, semantics really .

When its man and ape, descended, evolved, ancestry,.. look we all know what you are evos are saying no matter how cleverly you believe you have hidden it.

That last paragraph.. You make a complete ass of yourself
