news:kuxgj.25686$Ux2.22866@attbi_s22: Our culture -- not our religion -- is the only thing preventing IEDs and suicide bombers in America. Wow. You are not who I thought you are, Jay. I'm saddened, by your stand on this. I stand by my statement. America is a nation of many religions, united by one culture. The underlying (or, rather, over-arching) principles of our constitution were laid out by Christian men, Nope. Jefferson was definitely an Atheist and the others likely so from all available evidence Bertie |

Our constitution and founding documents were based on Christian European values. Yeah, like the idea that slavery is a perfectly acceptable practice condoned by the Bible, , that if it ain't European it's inferior and worthless, that women and other chattel don't get to vote, and that earth and its "inferior" inhabitants exist only for the exploitation of white Christian males. (Add to that the settlers' view that religious persecution is God's work.) We are losing that in the name of greed and PC tyranny and the mongolization of America driven by PC edicts and one world idiots. The abolition of slavery, complete religious freedom, women's sufferage, the idea that other cultures have worthy aspects, and evironmentalism used to be radically PC ideas, too. Obama and the under 30 crowd vote. How many of those under 30 crowd know Obamma is half white? The media does not mention it EVER. Obama denies his white blood and that's OK? Given your bigoted views, I'm surprised that you're not rejoicing in the fact that at least he's half-white and not right off the boat from inner Africa. America is spiraling down like a broke wing Cessna with a student pilot at the controls. It's just a matter of time before we go SPLAT You augered in the first time you posted here. |

Bertie Well they can't tell me what the weathers going to be with anything close to certainty next month why the hell should I believe them when they say what it will be 10, 20 or 50 years down the road? Actually, forecasting has become incredibly accurate in the last twenty years and is getting better all the time, short term certainly. I never cease to be amazed at how accurate winds aloft are, for the most part, and terminal forecasting is probably ten times more accurate than it was even ten or fifteen years ago. As to the predictions they're making long term, so far the trend seems to be accurate. More wind, more storms. record highs and lows.. As for Florida, I can live with that. Mmm me too. Shame about the everglades, though. Bertie |

Do you understand that, historically speaking, many scientific hypotheses are proven wrong and that doing so is consistent with the scientific method? Absolutely. Now if only the evolutionists and global warming fanatics would come to understand that. Matt |

Jay, The religious right in the US scares me almost as much as Islamo-fascism. In fact, they are two sides of the same coin. We are indeed in full agreement. And on my birthday, to boot. If that ain't proof of god... ;-) Happy birthday! Are you old enough to vote now? :-) |

And a dismayingly small percentage of the current population of those who claim to be scientists. Wrong, see below. This will become very apparent within a few decades when all of the global warming, er, global climate change "scientists" are proven wrong. That will be the biggest setback to science in our lifetimes. Please demonstrate that a significant percentage of reputable scientists claim that increased global warming to catastrophic levels is a dead certain fact and won't admit to the usual caveats of the scientific method. They may exist but they would be a small minority. And you're going to need primary sources - media science reporting is notoriously inaccurate and tries to inflate scientific statements way beyond the scientist's actual views. We need to see it in their own published material or equally reliable sources. http://scienceline.org/2007/02/07/gl...l-uncertainty/ Maybe you don't consider 600 scientists to be significant, but just to be clear is that what you are saying? A full, accurate statement that conforms to the scientific method would be along the lines of "There is mounting scientific evidence that the Earth is experiencing global warming, that the rate of warming is increasing, that human activity could be contributing to this, and if this trend continues, it has major implications for life on Earth. While alternative eplanations exist, they are not as useful in explaining all the observed data." There is no absolute certainty anywhere in there. Often scientists are guilty of not reciting the full version because they mistakenly assume that everyone understands the full but unspoken context of their announcements. But even when they do provide the full context, it seldom is included in the media accounts because it's not as sexy as some version of "Scientistists predict the end is near!" I don't see much equivocation or acceptance of any possible error in statements such as: “the question mark was removed behind the debate about whether climate change had anything to do with human activity on this planet.” “There is no question that the increase in greenhouse gases are dominated by human activity…The warming of the climate system is now unequivocal,” Can you point out the allowance for error in the above statements?

I'm saddened, by your stand on this. I stand by my statement. America is a nation of many religions, united by one culture. The underlying (or, rather, over-arching) principles of our constitution were laid out by Christian men Not so. http://www.earlyamerica.com/review/s...7/secular.html This is why it so important that we protect and nurture our unique (in the history of the world) culture, and is why real conservatives (not the new-fangled religious ones) fight so hard to preserve and protect it. IMHO it's a delicate thing that could be easily destroyed in a generation or two if we don't play our cards right. Yes, but rewriting history doesn't help. But, hey -- back to the original topic of this post: It looks like Obama is going to easily beat Hillary in New Hampshire, according to the latest polls. Quite a surprise. Not really. Many of the people who were supporting Hillary were doing so only because they were convinced she would win, and they didn't want to be left out in the cold when that happened. (This is true of any front runner. Ask Howard Dean.) In the wake of Iowa, those people now feel emboldened to abandon her. rg |
