When I saw the gofundme site my radar said don’t do it. It appears my instincts were correct.

I always blame me. It saves a lot of time.

What financial incentives?

Unfortunately I’m afraid we’re gonna get pounded by the Ducks. Maybe pounding some beaver afterwards will cheer us up.

My favorite King book was Rose Madder. I need to read that one again.

I’d forgotten about Lya. Is she still covering USU? If so, condolences to Aggie fans everywhere.

His best game as a Ute, imho, better than his 332 yard performance. He broke multiple tackles on seemingly every rush versus Indiana, whereas the o-line was opening massive holes against UCLA. Both performances were spectacular, but he was the complete package in the bowl game.

In some Muslim countries over 90% of the population believes Sharia Law should be the official law of the land. Even in more liberal areas, outside of the West, it’s still well over 50%. That means that a lot of these people who are fleeing terrible conditions in their homeland are likely bringing a horribly oppressive ideology along with them.…[Read more]

The difference is that you have people, who are trying to combat the ideology itself and the tenets that have fueled terrorism, being cast as bigots and racists simply for broaching the topic. I mentioned Sam Harris earlier. He is pretty far left, but he has been castigated by many prominent liberals for his views on Islam. I have never once heard…[Read more]

Completely agree. The religious right deserves every bit of flack it receives, and these ridiculous “religious freedom” bills are nothing more than bigotry cloaked in faith. This Christian persecution complex that has reared its head in recent years has become increasingly dangerous to the rest of us.

Liberals tend to demonize people who criticize Islam, even other liberals (see Sam Harris and Bill Maher vs Ben Affleck). Many of these same folks excoriate Christians at every turn. So, yes, on the left it is far less acceptable to mock Muslims than Christians. Maybe it’s a reflexive reaction to the bigotry of the far right, but it most certainly…[Read more]

I’d then bring in women and children and the elderly and other at risk groups (LGBT, etc).

You made this statement the other day, and I still don’t fully understand your position. So, we leave behind the families where a husband/father is still present? How is that humane?

Then, let them choose what way of life they want: A good, Christian, successful life, or the short life of a terrorist.

So, these are our only options? I suppose I’m a terrorist. I think I know what you’re getting at, but I find it pretty off-putting when people assume being a Christian is superior to adhering to a different set of religious…[Read more]
