What the?!?

We're supposed to be the most industrialized nation in the world and yet we can't seem to supply our soldiers with essential equipment. What the hell is that? And the reservists get second-rate equipment? Isn't the defense budget really huge now? Is all that money allocated towards the Star Wars program and pay raises? Not that pay raises are bad (Stars Wars sure is), but a couple of extra bucks in the pocket probably don't stop bullets nearly as well as an armor vest... The Star Wars technology sure isn't going to zap those bullets.

"Uh, we made an error in judgement with this whole liberation thing. It turns out that they don't really like us over here. Oh, and by the way, we don't have our supply chain set up correctly so you'll have to have your family buy your armor and mail it over.

And for you reservist volunteers who aren't career military people, thanks for leaving your much higher-paying jobs to help out. You're going to be out here a lot longer than we said you would be. Hopefully, you'll still have a job when you get back. We don't have any armor for you either. And you'll have to make due with these muskets. Good luck, soldier."

Paley's argument is made with passionate sincerity and is informed by the best biological scholarship of his day, but it is wrong, gloriously and utterly wrong. by texas holdem poker

I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, or has a will of the kind that we experience in ourselves. Neither can I nor would I want to conceive of an individual that survives his physical death; let feeble souls, from fear or absurd egoism, cherish such thoughts. I am satisfied with the mystery of the eternity of life and with the awareness and a glimpse of the marvelous structure of the existing world, together with the devoted striving to comprehend a portion, be it ever so tiny, of the Reason that manifests itself in nature. by party poker

Is it honest for me to go and sit there on communion day and drink the wine and eat the bread while feeling it all to be mummery? by paradise poker

The issues with respect to both relativism and the importance of sociological influences on science might be encapsulated by asking if one could have had a different science if historical conditions had differed... To the relativists the answer must presumably be 'yes', but then the onus is on them to demonstrate the validity of their position. To me, the answer is an unequivocal 'no': the course of science would have been very different, but the ideas would have ended up the same. by poker tips

The philosophic thesis that all knowledge is ultimately founded in experience has in the end led to a postulate concerning the logical clarification of any statement about nature. Such a postulate may have seemed justified in the period of classical physics, but since quantum theory we have learned that it cannot be fulfilled. by empirepoker

If my interlocutor desires to convince me that Jupiter has inhabitants, and that his description of them is accurate, it is for him to bring forward evidence in support of his contention. The burden of proof evidently lies on him; it is not for me to prove that no such beings exist before my non-belief is justified, but for him to prove that they do exist before my belief can be fairly claimed. Similarly, it is for the affirmer of God's existence to bring evidence in support of his affirmation; the burden of proof lies on him. by WPT

The idea of death, the fear of it, haunts the human animal like nothing else; it is a mainspring of human activity - designed largely to avoid the fatality of death, to overcome it by denying in some way that it is the final destiny of man. by casino games

How it is that anything so remarkable as a state of consciousness comes about as a result of irritating nervous tissue, is just as unnaccountable as the appearance of the Djinn when Aladdin rubbed his lamp, or any other ultimate fact of nature. by casino online
