We'll I don't feel the need to defend it, the supreme court already granted it. Silly. Silly?
Could you please post a link to that SC decision?
And, let's assume for a moment the Supreme Court "granted" tax exemption to the Co$. Why does that mean it is settled law? By your specious logic, abortion is completely moral and acceptable because of Roe. Sorry, that argument doesn't wash.
If you are refering to the e-meter well it works like a lie detector
Yes, I am referring to the "e-meter" and no, it doesn't work like a lie detector. The measurement of skin resistance is a part of how a lie detector works. Comparing the e-meter to a lie detector is like comparing a calculator to a PC. In addition, the lie detector is a notoriously inaccurate device, which doesn't say much for the e-meter.
But as far as your descussion on how the meter works, its all useless beacuse the device is so inaccurate. Really, how accurate can something be when it acutally says (according to L. Ron in The Book Introducing The E-Meter p. 28) "Ordinary "tin" cans with the paper label stripped off are preferred. Although they are less attractive, they give a more accurate response." That is just plain "silly".
I'm applying Ghandis principle of "first they make fun of you, then they fight you, then you win" hehe
I guess whenever you have nothing to support your beliefs, you'll try anything.
But seriously we both know you aren't actually interested in listening to me so cool it.
Cool it? I don't think so newbie.
And the reason it seems I'm not listening is because you aren't saying anything.

Tin cans are conductive enough to do the trick. The e-meter flows a very small charge through the body and then measures the mental resistance depending on how steady the electrical flow is. Thats all and thats what a lie detector does. It is easily proven by holding both cans and letting go of one, there will be no resistance whatsoever. Basic.
But besides that I believe things have changed since the days of using the busch bean cans. We now have specially made cans. Oohh

It works on the same principles as a lie detector and yes lie detectors are inaccurate but I already went into that. Had you actually read my earlier post you would find that we are in agreement on that fact, but at the same time the e-meter isn't used as a lie detector it's used for something completely different. It's used to better man, not condemn him.

I'll get back to you on that, I have to run.
