How do you separate the killing of an innocent child from Politics and Religion? Isn't life, such as that of an African America life, something that should be stood up for politically and religiously? If you are of the mindset that a child is not being killed in the process of an abortion, I can only deduce you condone the…

Care to elaborate?

Stay hydrated and rest. Just like someone else said above, work another muscle group. This is a weekly occurrence with me so that's why I concentrate on different muscle groups each day to allow for proper rest of the muscle group. Remember, your muscle growth happens during the rest phase so don't push it and try to work…

Interested in the feedback.

That would be like saying lynching and hanging of blacks is a personal decision. Politics and Religion should mind their own business and stay out of it.

I had this problem a while ago. I would stretch my calf first thing in the morning prior to placing my feet on the ground. I would do this with a towel wrapped around the ball of my foot and pulling the towel while locking out my knee. I would also roll my foot on a frozen water bottle to minimize the swelling and…

Yea poor woman. It's unfortunate a malady, such as pregnancy, is not preventable. :huh:

Per the link below, 57 members or 57% of the Senate currently hold a law degree. 169 members or 38% of the House have a law degree. These ratios also existed in 2009 when the Dems had a Democratic majority so their is no correlation between current policy decisions and educational background of Congress. They're all…

Just one last question. Since there have been cases of babies surviving premature births as early as 21 weeks and you are basing it on the viability of the baby outside of the womb., at what stage of pregnancy would you no longer consider an abortion?

If you are going to quote scripture at least do so in its proper context. In Genesis, the bible is speaking about the initial creation of man. There was no mother to precede him. Jeremiah 1:5 states "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the…

Soldier, I believe there is a god. You do not believe there is a god. Why is the burden of proof on me to prove there is a god and not on you to prove there is not a god? You will have to pardon my inability to fully understand what you are trying to convey since it all appears to be semantics IMHO.

You say "I do not believe there is a god." Earlier you said "The time to believe in anything is after you have the evidence and not before." What evidence do you have to prove there is no god?

Do you or do you not believe there is a god, regardless of what others think?

You said in an earlier post that you do not believe God exists. By accepting this belief without any evidence, you have already accepted tross0924's line of thinking.

LOL. Actually I responded to the OP by asking him what proof does he have to refute Intelligent Design since he said there is no proof a God exists. I am not trying to prove there is a God. All I am saying is there is no proof a God does NOT exist. I used the eye as an example of evolution not having all the answers. I…

Care to elaborate? I can throw out books supporting my position as well. http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=michael+behe+books&tag=googhydr-20&index=stripbooks&hvadid=11475651248&hvpos=1t1&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=11859359842094528344&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=b&hvdev=c&ref=pd_sl_4mfhi5j9na_b

I claim the evolution of the eye cannot be explained by science, therefore, I reason it was created by Intelligent Design. If you have scientific evidence to prove otherwise, by all means provide your sources.

You explain the evolution of the eye. I'm on the side of intelligen design, remember?

So does the biology of the human eye with regard to evolution.

Again, your point neither proves or refutes the existence of God.

Science has not yet been able to prove the total absence of Intelligent Design so there is no proof a god does not exist either.

Brazil has the 6th largest economy in the world, by GDP, and the only country OF ITS SIZE, in the top 6, to offer universal healthcare. Of the top 6 (the US obviously being No.1) Brazil most closely resembles the US in population and shear land mass. To be able to compare universal healthcare systems in different…

lol :smile: All true but you still didnt answer the question.

So you're comparing a country with a population of about 5 million people to a country with 315 million......Where does Brazil rank on this list? They have a population close to 200 Million and universal healthcare.

Standing Ovation!!!! :flowerforyou: This attitude is what made America great. It's nice to see it still exists.

Interesting. I will have to look into it further. Thanks for the info.

Yes, I have read it. That is why I keep correcting you because your interpretation of the letter is incorrect.

Which is why I agree something needs to be done to fix healthcare, medicare, and medicaid.

The offsets are the revenue increases. If they're not, your saying the government will receive $1 trillion dollars in taxes and expect to save $700B in Medicare costs, making this bill a $1.7T healthcare bill. When it was signed into law it was $930B. You are now saying the law was passed with over $1Trillion dollars in…

Unfortunately, your numbers are incorrect. You can see in the article below tax revenue equals roughly $500B, not $1T. http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/06/fact-checking-romney-does-health-reform-cut-medicare-levy-500-billion-tax/
