And it's not like you haven't had a chance. We're on page 14 and still
waiting.

If you could prove, or even give good evidence, of any kind of
conspiracy, you have yet to do so.

I'm not the one resorting to name calling and insults. Seriously. I'm
not even in my mid 20s- why am I the mature one in this thing?

Alkili is good, too. I prefer my sewage comment better, though.

And I quoted the word "cheat"- meaning it's not cheating, but some might
try to say it is.

That makes the false assumption that the other species count as
children. They're not. So it's a failed analogy.

I only bow to two things. One is my Creator. The other is the truth. And
occasionally asian people, but that's out of politeness. And even then
it's only to those who weren't born in a western nation.

Once again, you skip all the valid points.

And that same line was used on you, if I recall.

Although, in this case, it's leading a horse to the septic system and
TELLING him it's water.

And how are we defining superiority? Name something that animals beat
us in- and remember, we're allowed to "cheat" and use our technology. We
made it, and thus, it counts as a species survival trait.

Oh, and don't for a second think "environmental equilibrium" counts.
Any species on earth could and would do exactly the same "consume until
nothing survives" process that we're doing. Without stopping to consider
the consequences for even the meager amount that we have.

The thing is, other forces inhibit the rest of the animal kingdom. And
thus far, we've proven unstopable.

Wow. I must be tired. I just used the wrong "to".

Dude. Have you ever had a thought of your own in your life? Seriously,
stop the needless and useless stream of quotes.


And I told you my theory on the stuff they're hiding from us about the
pentagon. They fired on it before it hit the building. And that's half a
dozen reasons why I'd hush the incident as much as possible.


Besides, as that site I was so nice to link you two clearly
demonstrated- the wreckage was about right for a 757. Or maybe a 747.
Give or take. But it was about the right size for the wingspan and
engine locations for such a plane.

One of the few drugs in the world that actually calms the side effects
of chemotherapy. And the ONLY known one that doesn't have side effects
from interacting with chemo.

I love that "the government originally created the "no planes" theory
in order to discredit legitimate truth seekers" line. I admit, if I were
in charge and felt the need to start a massive war, I'd do the same
thing.


And the "it's possible that those who planned 9/11 did not realize the
buildings would collapse". That one was great, too.

I should think our ability to have this conversation provides quite a
degree of support to the "we're superior" argument.


Define "superiority" in any sence.

The ability to survive? We win- nothing else on this planet can visit
the depths of the oceans and the highest mountain peaks. Or, for that
matter, take a stroll on the moon.

The ability to communicate? Done and done.

The ability to adapt? See survival.

Spread our genetics? We can actually make babies without sex these
days.

One day we'll be comfortably eliminating all genetic diseases, and
giving neat little addendums to our gene pool.

Ability to affect the world? Obviously we're winning that one.



Without bringing morality into it, opperating on pure pragmatism- we're
the clear victors. When bringing morality into it- we're the ones that
can understand what it morality- that means something, does it not?

Now, does our being "superior" mean we can get away with whatever we
want? Hell no. We can break a lot of rules, and been plenty of others,
but we're still leashed like every other beast. We have a longer chain
by far, but that only means more freedom, not complete autonomy.

Well then, AB, I almost forgot about that evidence I presented. Heh.
That was a cool site, though- and it actually had an intelligent
conspiracy theory. One that might even be rational. Although I still
don't think they could cover anything that big up.

Yeah. What is going to be done with that canal, anyways?

Although it's really a moot point. We can launch from shore enough
military firepower to sink most any air or sea invasion. Our carriers in
the atlantic could easily deploy to defend Hawaii.

In the modern military theatre- even if we could use the canal- it
wouldn't be fast enough to get the ships to the field.

Actually, the "War College" isn't from our government. It's the
international studies stuff. America's certainly involved- but it's the
UN that does the calculations.

And at the time, Iraq had the largest standing military, and best
equipped, in the area.

Well, the legality of the Iraq war is unquestionable. The original war
was us protecting Kuwait- and violence against an attacker to protect
the victim is not only acceptable, but a moral necessity. Of course,
it's better if a peaceful solution were possible- war is the last
acceptable course of action. But it trumps doing nothing and allowing
innocent people to suffer.


And the current war is a result of the old one. We had a treaty- Iraq
would allow UN inspectors essentially unlimited access. Iraq would not
build or maintain a military over a certain size. Iraq would not seek to
acquire or manufacture WMD's. Iraq would not produce chemical weapons
(even those not of WMD status). Iraq would not produce long-range or
first strike missiles. Iraq would stop committing crimes against
humanity. And a few other points were included- plus it was in that
legality language we all love so well.

If Iraq violated ANY of these conditions, the UN would have cause to go
to war.


Guess what- Iraq violated almost all of them. (Not the WMD thing, which
is the only viable anti-iraq argument). But they did all of the others.
And any one of those was cause enough to go back to war. Clinton should
have been the President to fight the Iraq war. But, of course, he was
too busy boinking the ugliest women in Washington DC to care.

Pot is less debilitating than alcohol, by far. As long as you're not
driving or operating heavy machinery, you'll be fine. Or getting too
stoned and then accidentally setting your couch on fire.

Seriously- if you hurt yourself while on pot- you got what you
deserved.

Yes. By all means. Play fair and answer our challenges to your claims.
We have challenged a few of "yours" (or whomever they truly belong to).
Not all- but then- who has the kind of time to actually go through all
that copy/paste junk you provide?
