though tbh I did not lose hope on Occult in the Islam thread which I should have known better

Oh yes because Islam is the great friend of anarchists and atheists. Go ahead and pretend those that want you dead are your allies. They don't ****ing care if you tolerate them or not. They hate you.

On how the current GOP wants to run the country? I've seen enough to form a firm opinion. What would you like to see me do?



You do see what you did, right?

Spell it out of for me.

I hate when members here talk down to me like I'm ****ing stupid, dumb, un-informed, or a blind partisan. Hate it. Stop.

We're a half year into his first term and it's been a non-stop circus. If he actually does something to help the American people I'll give him credit. Until then, he's a joke. And as noted earlier, I've been following the guy for decades, and he's always come across as a 100% self serving douchebag. So far as president, he's done nothing to change that perception.

Double negative.

That's sad that you think that's clever. No wonder you can't get no satisfaction.

I remember watching new atheists try this and you could come out thinking it was a draw if you didn't know better

Debating to me is not about winning or losing. It is about clearly presenting a solid argument for your position. It should be logically consistent and factual when appropriate, that is all. The best part about good debates is finding weaknesses in your argument and being humble enough to restructure it.. unless youre a fan of stagnation of course.

I just think you suck at debating because you often bring too much emotion into it.

Also, I think Trump going back on his word about destroying the Johnson Amendment was something positive. Thoughts?

Pretty sure he's said **** about how voting Sanders is throwing your vote away while sucking Hillary's manly cock.

I don't care about Islam either way, it's a distraction, it's irrelevant

It's just a misconception that Islam is the chief cause of the problems of that region and terrorism abroad

Yeah. It's something in the water I guess.
