Okay folk...
this is more proof that Almeyda has simply been jerking our chain. See Message 34 for more on that.
​
He did good and I for one was completely fooled. I'll admit, it was hard to imagine someone that had actually bought into the AIG nonsense, but not totally inconceivable. But these last two posts provide stunning evidence that we have been had.
​
Big time.
​
Congratulations Almeyda.
​
Great job. You fooled us completely.

They get us to lay down our absolute moral standards one by one...
​
You and others keep saying stuff like that. But so far I haven't seen any real examples.
​
So let's go down the list of absolute moral standards one by one.
​
What would be moral standard number one?

Well, let's see?
As I asked in Message 18, what would be the first example of this Moral standard of truth?

Please read what you are writing. You say...
​
Please enlighten me and point me to what radicals are reading or interpreting thats making them become terrorists.
​
I point you towards the Bible. The problem is not the document, it is the RADICAL. It matters not if they are Islamic, Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Atheist, Communist, Fascist, or any other type of radical.
​
To paraphrase the Wizard of Oz, "RADICALs and FUNDAMENTALISTS and LITERALISTS, Oh My."

You keep bringing stuff like this up,
but still have not answered the question I asked in Message 18 and again in Message 23.
​
If there is an outside objective moral standard, what is it? Please, can you list one?
​
It cannot be something general like "follow God's teachings" since the nature, existence and identity of God will vary depending on the belief structure of the person you ask.
​
Personally, I believe that there is one but I have yet to see you or anyone else point to such a critter.

Re: ?????????????
If you look at the AIG article there is many more such silly statement. From the referenced article Darwin's Bodysnatchers
​
they add...
​
US evolutionists were also strongly involved in this flourishing 'industry' of gathering specimens of 'subhumans'. The Smithsonian Institution in Washington holds the remains of 15,000 individuals of various races.
​
Note the use of the word sub-humans as a typical AIG characterisation. That is not what the Smithsonian says, it is what the spin doctors at AIG say.
​
But does the Smithsonian have 15,000 individuals? Most likely. They have mummies, cadavers, collections of bones and skulls. Surprised? Not really. That is what a museum does. Is that Bodysnatching? Only in the perverted imagining of AIG.
