This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the RULES. Registering for debate politics is necessary before posting. Register today to participate - it's free!

words of Jesus christ
I'm going to ignore the fact that this enitre argument is so arrogant and childish for a moment. Besides the fact that Jesus cannot be defined by man's political ideals, your definition of Liberal is the literal one, the one that means "liberal" in a world perspective. In America our idea of... -

The Nature of News
I think Machiavelli would simply tell you that a Prince must look good, but not act as such. That some of these actions they do are simply there in order for him to stay in power and are just as much important as when he needs to be fierce. -

The Nature of News
You really have made no valid point against my argument. You simply have stated an altruistic point of view without a base. Like I said before, take away their pay and see if they come back to work or track down the people they help. They never will. Just because you take my point of view as... -

I found this to be quite interesting. The life of desire is an irrational one. To live by your desires to live by your emotions, the neverending hunger for food, sex, drink, money, conquest, etc. Whatever your choice here is, whether you believe in God or not, should one not live for something... -

Yeah it's blasphemy defined as "denouncing the existence of God." *edit* Then again I just saw that you had posted it lol - I thought you were still asking. -

By logic if you know you're doing something wrong but continue then your request for salvation and forgiveness is a perversion of its essence. God allows forgiveness assuming you stop doing whatever it is you're doing wrong. This doesn't go to say you accidentally repeated a mistake, but rather... -

Attractiveness of Christianity
You're so modest about your self-founded faith. Lets not flaunt around and act like we're the first to find loopholes within religions. There are many unexplained and irrational things to be seen in all - Christianity and Judaism alike. -

Also I'd like to point out that the very nature of politics and in competition within the human mind is based off the assumption that each side must demonize the other. It's simple to say you're evil if you vote for party A when you belong to party B, and vice versa. You're political... -

What is under discussions was my example of acting within such a society. If you have a logical explanation that undermines it pre-empt your answer with that. In such a society, according to aforementioned definition, the very act of voting would be blasphemous. No matter if it was to save a... -

Fox's obsession with the War on Terrror
I'm sure I've already stated this once but I might as well reiterate myself. News is made through the denaturing of facts. It's like defending a perversion of real life events. And no one network has anymore fighting, yelling or spitting than another. If you want to gripe look for the stations... -

It means that you're being either a) a hypocrite - because you're aware that society itself is corrupt and it's almost idiotic to point out a flaw or b) ignorant - I'm uneducated on the Bible, but I'm almost positive God never said, "thou shalt not vote..." and so on and so forth. -

If you would like a different example then I can come up with since so many seem to complain about voluntary and the involuntary difference. The creation of a civilization is one created by a gathering of men. More often than not it is in the hopes of trade and increased prosperity for all. An... -

Voting should also not be a focus on life. Some of the lowest forms of one's identity is what your particular party affiliation is. No matter what form of government you believe in they're all "caves" as Plato might say. When I say the idea is pure this doesn't mean don't bother trying... -

I think you've missed the point yet again. You're attributing will where there is none. By your logic I could say breathing is an action, it sustains your life, you focus your life on voting, you voted for war, war is against God, by breathing you're against God. Use some common sense, don't...
