AZswayze started the topic Trump has done some outrageous things so far, most of which I can easily look at in the forum Politics 7 years, 9 months ago
easily and say “woah, that seems like a horrible idea”. I can’t do that with the immigration ban. While I don’t agree with the ban itself, I understand the sentiment behind it. The thread a little ways down is a perfect example of how some people tend to grasp onto one side of an argument, and demonize others with differing opinions, thus shutting…[Read more]

Imagine being held up by some protesters, and being fired for being late to work. Holy hell, I think I would lose my mind.

I saw a Vice episode just prior to the election where he was pretty doom and gloom over the possibility of Trump winning. He was on Anderson Cooper the other night, and to my surprise he was a bit more positive, especially over the immigration executive order. He claimed to have read it and that it’s simply not a ban, but a suspension. To me, he’s…[Read more]

I think you and I agree on something for once. I’m all for civil protests, but violence and vandalism are never acceptable. Many on the left are angry, I totally get that, but these idiots need to take a breather. They’re undermining their own efforts.
While it’s true that the left harps on inclusion, the demonization of both sides by each other…[Read more]

AZswayze replied to the topic How long until FlyFishingUte and WestCoastCutthroat get into a major argument? in the forum Politics 7 years, 9 months ago
Sorry, didn’t mean for it to go that route. My comment was just due to the fact that both those posters like to argue politics. Had no idea it would spawn actual political discussions.

I edited my post and answered your question, so you may have missed it. Yes, I believe we are in agreement. Sorry if my post came of a little rude. I’m just very passionate about this topic.

Definitely went on a bit of a tangent, but what set me off was your comment that it’s arguable that being against murder is a tenet of religion. While that is somewhat true (at times it’s perfectly acceptable in the bible), it doesn’t mean that this concept originated from the bible or any otber religious text, and it certainly has nothing to do…[Read more]

I’ll give you some examples:
1. Gay marriage. I don’t know any non-religious people who are against it, and the “secular” arguments I’ve heard are devoid of evidence.
2. Creationism in public schools. Yes, this is still a topic of concern in the South, and with Betsy Devos poised to take over as Secretary of Education it may rear its head on a…[Read more]

Religion doesn’t have a monopoly on morals, and many of the values that the major religions espouse are completely immoral imo. Laws should never be created off the basis of personal faith. Murder, rape, robbery, etc, are bad for society, thus illegal. The bible is a testament to god’s vanity and immorality. Nearly half of the ten commandments…[Read more]
