Can't handle honest debate instead of purposefully posting inflammatory pictures, can you? Freerepublic is a forum, not a grade-school picture cut and paste session. God has blessed human beings with tremendous vocal capabilities and I feel that we should use these abilities the best that we can when putting forth and articulating honest debate.

No Wildcat doen't know how to debate. Instead he likes to jump from thread to thread finding persons he disagrees with and if he can't debate them he starts a stay on the subject flaming tactic. It seems Wildcat is the self appointed posting police and only what he can understand as being on subject must be posted. He's very childish to say the least and his consistant posting in this manner {usually personal attacks instead of debating} is getting very old.

Looking at your name in Find in Forum you posted in this thread just for the sole purpose to harass and attack people and nothing more.

[Miss Marple]

In my continuing effort to bring information to all of you, I feel I must clarify a term. Humans are, indeed, primates. Here is the definition of primates, from the Academic Press Dictionary of Science and Technology:

primates: an order of omnivorous mammals, consisting of three suborders: Anthropoidea, including humans, great apes, gibbons, and Old World and New World monkeys; Prosimii, including lemurs, loris, and the like; and Tarsioidea, including tarsiers; members of this order are characterized by highly developed brains, forward directed eyes, use of the hands, and varied locomotion, and particularly by complex, flexible behavior involving a high level of social interaction and adaptability.

BTW in case you haven't noticed if I have something to say about you in this forum I at least have the guts and decency to ping you as well. GOSSIP MONGER!

[Fred Mertz]

"Ooga booga."

That means thank you, in my best sounding primate voice of course.

[Miss Marple]

Just trying to elevate the tone a little. Thank you for your asistance in this matter.

PING to post 821 and others.

Don't hold your breath until JW has a Chicago office. Yea, right, they'll have a Chicago office right after they get their New York office up and running which will happen right after they get their Houston office in place which will happen right after... well, you get the point. It is all lies, just fund-rainsing BS.

Another point, JW has no "business" and no "billings." Its income comes from contributions of people like you, or maybe one or two people not much you.

[Iwo Jima]

LOL! Your comparison of Larry Klayman and Benny Hinn is so right on. I have compared Klayman to Elmer Gantry, but it's amazing how few people get that reference. I'll use Benny Hinn from now on.

Still laughing.

[A.J.Armitage]

After my message last night, Jim sent me a nice letter assuring me that the rule is still in effect. Yet the comment hasn't been pulled. Did someone forget? Is "bimbo" not on the list of personal attacks?

[A.J.Armitage]

Hey, where's sink get off too, anyway?

Hole_n_one has him nailed. Surely a little crow should eaten.

[A.J.Armitage]

I've seen people say things like, "We're human beings, not animals." Of course, we are animals, but we're not just animals. We're primates, but I don't see why you can't use the term the same way, in that we aren't merely primates.

[Miss Marple]

I only posted the definition because there seemed to be some confusion earlier in the thread. Your usage would be correct, but we are, of course, primates.

[Clara Lou]

I guess we need a definition of "personal attack" and what exactly constitutes such a thing.

[Sabertooth]

Your usage would be correct, but we are, of course, primates.

ahem

[Miss Marple]

The scientific name for the sabertooth tiger is Smilodon.

I always liked that name.

[Sabertooth]

The scientific name for the sabertooth tiger is Smilodon.

That's the genus. The species name is fatalis.

[FreedominJesusChrist]

Most Bible believing Christians would reject that definition of primates anyway. The problem with this definition is that it assumes that human beings are animals and thus, places them in the same category of apes and monkeys.

Defining humanity as being animals takes away from what ultimately sets us apart from the animal kingdom--human beings have a soul and are capable of belief in God and knowing right from wrong; God did not give this ability to animals and placed man over the animal kingdom because we are made in God's image and animals aren't.

Anyway, thanks for the extra information MM.

You are alleging Simon & Schuster, in effect, paid Jeffords to leave the GOP and swing the Senate to the Demos.

Not being a legal expert, I can only say that from my point of view, the Jeffords book deal has a very strong appearance of impropriety.

What are you suggesting was S&S's motivation for doing that? What's in it for them?

There was a mention in a Cindy Adams column around that time that Bill Clinton had met with Jeffords and helped persuade him to switch. S&S is Hillary Clinton's publisher, and has a substantial investment ($8M worth) in her, and presumably would want to keep her happy.

And if it is true, is it illegal?

See my first answer. It's very, very close, in my opinion.

[Miss Marple]

Becky, do not atttempt to argue science, please. This is a scientific classifiction, and if you will READ the definition it speaks of certain characteristics which define a primate, including highly developed brains and forward looking eyes. As far as I know the Bible doesn't require me to check basic scientific knowledge at the door.

This definition says nothing about the soul, salvation, or the actions of God in the affairs of men. It simply describes the characteristics of a certain group of animals, men being members of that group.

That God created men to be custodians of the rest in not discussed here. Discounting the definition as something that "most Bible believing Christians" wouldn't accept is spacious and irrelevant.
