CC - The US probably won’t stop with Iraq. It’s GOOD to be the cop. Today Iraq, tomorrow the world! (Ooh, went a little far this time…)

RE: Bush Covering for an Invasion of Iraq?
The US always has military plans drawn up for all “troublesome” regions. That’s what military planners and strategists get paid for…

RE: The end of the world
No thanks, some things should be left to theory and speculation…

RE: The Existence of God
In theory I’ll agree, however, the US Administration is very selective on which “evils” it wishes to eliminate. Obviously threats to US security come first (Iraq?!?!?). Being world policeman seems to me to mean getting all the bad guys, not just the most popular. Now I’m treading on if the US has the right to act in this manner. I’d say we’d better tread carefully…

RE: 9/11 over rated?
If your refering to a reporter sticking a camera in a fireman’s face after he was just rescued after being buried alive for 3 days, I’ll agree news agencies sometimes need to back off and use some common sense…

RE: The Existence of God
Ignorance of another culture is the first step towards fear and hate is the first step towards war.
For some Americans, this is true. This is why I say America views Iraq as evil. Saddam or no Saddam won’t matter when Americans start dying in an Iraqi conflict…

Americans have no objective valor, you must be living in France…

RE: The Existence of God
Earthquakes certainly pre-date humanity. I don’t see how they can be considered “evil” on this point. Only by human bias can they be considered evil.
Why does God allow the Devil to exist? He’s on the payroll…

RE: 9/11 over rated?
I don’t believe you can place a natural disaster on the same level as a terrorist attack. Diseases go the same way. Homicides and suicides are outside the scope of this discussion as well. I believe lots of money is put into medical research, crime prevention, and all types of therapy. Be serious, any country will hi-light any disaster at the hands of humans or natural. Feelings obviously still run high here in the US. I’m sure in 60 years most Americans will view 9/11 as most do now refering to Pearl Harbor…

RE: We should not attack Iraq
The limited inspection deal is ludicrous. Even inspectors with full, unlimited access to Iraqi installations, I doubt they’ll be lifting to see what’s under every rug. Hell, he could hide the majority of his arsenal out in desert bunkers and nobody would find it. This doesn’t mean I’m all with an invasion either, but the difficulties are there…

RE: Time Travel
Traveling at lightspeed (hyperdrive) is in theory time travel in the past, where the system is set to make up lost time traveling the great distances. To an observer, you’d leave an area in one place only to re-appear in another an instant later. Obviously, technology WAY beyond ours, but a nice thought…

RE: Building on the WTC site
Agreed. I grew up in New Jersey, Woodbridge Township near Staten Island. I’m with you…

RE: Building on the WTC site
Your hearts are all in the right place, but remember, this is prime commercial property. I see no residential building there…

RE: Could the USA/Allies Have Saved East Germany from Communism?
Agreed with Yanny. Russian troops wanted Berlin (and Hitler) real bad after the suffering of their people by the Nazi’s. I really don’t think the Allies could have excluded a Russian occupied zone on that point alone…

RE: Atheists in foxholes?
My take on this is that people are still faithful, but are finding it harder to find time to practice. Work and school or both, seems like our daily free time is shrinking…

RE: Atheists in foxholes?
Thanks CC for speaking up. That’s the scenario that divides the theists from athiests. When it’s over (if your alive), you’ll know if you BELIEVE or not…

RE: Christian Bible - Truth or Lies?
DasEwokSS - Hey, I lived my life basically a good person, whatever lies ahead, let the cards fall. I don’t think I’d actually say “Bring it on, Bitch”, however. If He doesn’t like the fact I stayed true to my word, I suppose He’ll be forced to do His worst; I am prepared…(all this in theory, of course)…

RE: Christian Bible - Truth or Lies?
In the scenario where the theists are proven correct after my death and I’m standing before God - hopefully I’ll get points for staying true to my words and beliefs! Whatever punishment He comes up with - bring it on!!!
