  1. Deism in the 21st Century

    Ask any priest or minister. The argument was decided in 325 AD--all Christian chruches accept the Council of Nicaea which acknowledged the full divinity of Christ. That's why the Nicene Creed says "God from God, Light from Light, True God from True God, begotten, not made." The Trinity...
  2. Deism in the 21st Century

    If you had paid attention in Sunday School--or whatever Lutherans call it--you'd understand that when Jesus calls himself Son of God, he is saying that he is God. He calls Himself the Son of David--saying that He is David--the Messiah. That's what it means to call yourself the Son of...
  3. Deism in the 21st Century

    Yeah, Encarta is a real good source. Check the DOCTRINES of every single Christian faith and you will see that they all profess that Jesus is True God. Or, better yet, ask any Christian.
  4. Deism in the 21st Century

    Dude. ALL Christians --Catholics, Lutherans, Baptists, Methodists, Episcopalians, Presbyterians, Fundamentalists-- believe that Jesus is True God. To argue otherwise is to betray your ignorance of what Christianity is. The divinity of Christ is a Doctrine of all those churches. The only...
  5. Deism in the 21st Century

    30% (or close to it, last poll I recall seeing) of American "catholics" do not believe that Jesus is God. That means they aren't really Catholic, nor even Christian. They are, basically, high-church (ritualistic) Unitarians. Unitarians are certainly Deists. The "catholics" I'm talking about...
  6. Deism in the 21st Century

    Deism is a major philosophical and religious view in the USA. Basically, anybody who describes themself as Christian, but then admits to not believing that Jesus is God, is a Deist. That means the 30% of American "catholics" (selfdescribed) are actually Deists, ~40 million people. Deism was...
  7. The West Wing

    The show would be a lot better if it had some hot babes on it. The chick who plays the press secretary looks like freakin' Big Bird, The dishrag who portrays Zoey Bartlett isn't exactly homely, but she ain't hot neither. Stockard Channing--she wasn't even hot when she was young...
  8. Malayan strategy in Vietnam

    The "Strategic Hamlets" idea was from the Phillipines War. It worked against the Filipino freedom fighters because they couldn't get outside assistance. Strategic hamlets kept the guerrillas from being resupplied by the general population; it worked there because the Phillipines are islands.
  9. Do ATL's really exist?

    Somewhere in time, Hitler and Gandhi are kicking back smoking a blunt together.
  10. Decuple Scientology

    I know that you were serious--but I thought that audits were a one-on-one thing where a Sciento;ogist "priest" hooks you up with wires to a tinfoil-covered shoebox to see how well you're progressing.
  11. Decuple Scientology

    Is that audit the one where they hook you up to a tinfoil-covered shoebox?
  12. AH Challenge: Third World USA

    Have a caldera erupt in Greenland which melts the glaciers, in 1776. Aside from the tons of ash thrown into the atmosphere, resulting in decreased temperatures, the influx of fresh water from the glaciers into the North Atlantic, disrupting the salt pumps that power the Gulf Stream. This...
  13. Historical "good guys"

    People need to put other or none of the above in thier polls. I say the Catholic Church was, is, and always shall be the greatest force of goodness in history. The Catholic Church has certainly educated, cured, aided, fed, clothed more destitute and disenfranchised people than any of the...
  14. worst villain ever

    Yes. I do realize that. The US is the tool of the British bankers, has been since 1907.
  15. Which Great American Writer would make the best military leader?

    I think that Edgar Allen Poe is the likeliest great American writer to become a brilliant military leader. He actually was a Sergeant Major of artillery before he went to West Point. Say he doesn't drop out of West Point in 1831. When the War of Northern Aggression is launched he will have...
