  1. This is a pretty interesting site.and this is a very good one as well.
  2. We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may. It is obvious that you don't agree with our replies.......but comments like "It is obvious to me that those other 2 "glories" are make believe....are simply uncalled for and frankly rude. I think the disconnect is interpretation.......and your dogged determination to object to our interpretation, which is fine, but try a bit harder to understand.
  3. Thanks for the statistical analysis....... She is a lefty to be sure and we will no doubt end up with her. That will make some happy and some not so much.As for being fair....I posted the story for all to read and judge for themselves.......the title is from the Washington Times, not Bytor.
  4. Scary......read more here.
  5. Sounds racist to me. To answer your question, if she were conservative, I would feel the same way....racist comment and her history smacks of judicial activism.
  6. Would you be okay with if someone had said:I would hope that a wise Anglo man with the richness of his experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a Latino male that hasn't lived that life. Read New York Times article here
  7. I think you forgot to post the symbol.
  8. Was there ever any doubt????
  9. I think prior to 1978 it would have been an impediment, now the blessings of the Priesthood are available to all. If as was believed in years past by the brethren that blacks for instance, were less valiant in the pre-existence, then it may have been right to assume this. I have often wondered if race or different skin color will exist in the eternities or if that was just Heavenly Father's way of testing us, to see if we would truly love one another.
  10. Seems the Lord had no problems with delivering Laban into Nephi's hands to have his head cut off.......bet Laban would much rather have been water boarded. I wonder how we would feel if we didn't water board the three monsters, including KSM....you know the one who cut Daniel Pearls head off......and another terrorist attack would have occurred in Los Angelos and thousands more had died, because we did not use extreme interrogation methods administered by the CIA under the direction of a Physician???? Funny isn't? We water board our Navy Seals during training....maybe we should prosecute the members of the armed services who came up with that??
  11. Your quote from President Faust is very moving. I listen to it often on the Special Witnesses of Christ dvd....very moving. In 1982 Apostle Bruce R McConkie addressed several issues at a BYU fireside, among the issues were the desire that many have to seek a special relationship with Christ. He quotes as follows:
  12. Regarding habeus corpus, I fear some slick lawyer gets one of these yahoos off on a technicality and then he's back with a vengeance that can only be satisfied by blood. How do you feel about military tribunals?
  13. I understand your point Funky. I am mainly speaking about the hypocrisy of the left. I have read reports that the detainees receive a lot of special treatments that they wouldn't receive normally. I don't want the detainees here nor do I want them to have access to our courts. Military tribunals seem the best way to go. Let us not forget that these are the worst of the lot and deemed most dangerous. Many have been released and some returned to their former callings....terrorist.
  14. Since some feel that mistreatment of prisoners occurred under Bush's watch, wouldn't Obama have insured their safety and well being by now? Or are you saying that Obama is employing the same system as Bush and if that is the case, and I think it is, then it's probably safe to assume that mistreatment wasn't and isn't going on. After all, Obama would not want that kind of scandal.
  15. Ah, but he also wants to detain them indefinitely. No habeus corpus. They are treated much better at GITMO than they would be in the US prison system. Point is, the issue is not as easy to solve when you are in charge of doing it. Political posturing for political gain worked well, but now he is adopting much of what he bashed....at least for a while.
  16. I am sure I would be excommunicated.....after shooting that sorry @!* step father right between the eyes!!!!
  17. I think you've got it backwards. Considering all the vilification heaped on Bush, this is an interesting development. I understand that Obama is reserving the right to use water boarding in the event he deems it necessary......I thought he said that was torture???!!!
  18. Interesting. It doesn't do it in the winter. The other night I had the windows open because it was unseasonably cool and the TV worked great. Very well maybe heat related. Maybe I need to keep the back of the TV cooler. Thanks Snow.
  19. Bahahahah!! I love it!! Love it!! read here.
  20. I have a 61" Samsung DLP (6163W). The picture is awesome.....not LCD for sure, but I have had it for four years. So what's wrong you might ask? Well, the TV just turns it self off. I turn it back on and a few minutes later, off it goes. Over and over and over....aarrrrrrrrr!!!! I am very close to shooting it. Very frustrating and they are not just giving TV's away. What a pain. Something needs to give soon....college football is right around the corner. Yeah I know......college football is three months away, but I have got to look forward to something!! Blasted thing....just did it again.:mad:
  21. I am a registered Republican, but only because I believe a vote for a third party candidate is a waste and the best way to affect change in the Republican party is from within. I am really libertarian in my views...small l not the party.
  22. I don't get the no abortion under any circumstance position either. Sicko is being a bit kind to the step-father...IMO. GAG!!!
  23. I love Dick Cheney and greatly admire and respect him. He will not, however, run for President and I would never vote for a Democrat......unless they suddenly became advocates for smaller government, fiscal responsibility, strong national defense and opposed abortion on demand, etc.
  24. Former Vice-President Cheney is spot on IMHO. This link contains the transcript of his excellent speech.
