    It’s right in the first amendment lol. And Jefferson clearly stated so. It’s amusing you think he’s a liberal.

    No they didn’t lol.

    Actually it prevents crybaby conservatives from imposing their beliefs in imaginary friends onto the rest of us.

    Because you can’t lol. But when you make silly assertions on a debate forum you’ll get called on it.

    It’s ok. We both know you can’t substantiate your claim in any way.

    The VP9. Holds 10+1. I don't have a big hand so it fits well. Hasn't jammed one time and I have fed it different types of hollow points. Very nice pistol you should check their line up out.

    Totally fair comment, just don't expect others to adhere to your religion. That includes inserting it into civil law. That is where I have the problem.

    Plus, have you ever been given a religious pamphlet? I have been passed a few over the years and I find it extremely rude. How dare that person suggest religion to me if I don't ask.

    My success at logic does not depend on talking you down out of a tree

    I dont care if you believe in God and Salivation or not

    You can believe whatever you need to.

    Some religionists are actually borderline atheists, denying the existence of all the gods - with a token exception.

    Monsieur Pascal's Wager
    Poor old Blaise lived out his days,
    And gazing on a face divine,
    Exclaimed with glee, "O Lucky Me!

    I've won that bet of mine!"
    But then his gaze broke through the haze.
    He saw that gods abound!
    In serving one, he'd snubbed the rest.
    They stared at him - and frowned.

    You can't just assume something is an inherently good thing without being prepared to justify it.

    The Christian god is a very popular one, but it is our existence that creates the gods.

    You obviously do not speak for Christians.

    I do when I cite the Christian agenda:
    1. Feed the hungry
    2. Give drink to the thirsty
    3. Welcome the stranger
    4. Clothe the naked
    5. Visit the sick
    6. Visit the prisoner
    7. Bury the dead

    So what is your reasoning to not help your fellow man? I have given a helping hand to people and it fulfilled me tremendously. It gets me out of my own mind and my own selfishness. It feels good.

    I have also been helped when I very much needed it.

    I like the ergonomics better than the Glocks. Don't get me wrong, I love Glocks and have had a Glock 17 and I loved it. 18 rounds is a helluva back-up! I conceal carry sometimes though hence the PPK and HK.

    You are free to believe the Dumb Luck theory of creation if you want

    But thwt requires the biggest leap of faith
    Christians do all of those things and are more generous than liberals who tend to give very little

    In America few people are helpless

    Instead many are just lazy or drug addicted

    Giving them free stuff is a form of brainlessness that can make their condition worse

    Oblivion is being unaware or unconscious of what is going on. When you are dead there is no awareness to be unaware of.

    I want the worms and bugs to eat me and turn me into soil. It is as nature intended.

    You are making a positive claim. You are the one obligated to provide support for it. In debate there is no obligation to prove a negative.
