    Faculty leaving University in droves over statement they must sign [W:89]

    The statement that they need to sign doesn't seem that extreme....those things only apply when they are "near campus". ;)

    Should paramilitary training be a criminal offense?

    So you're saying we have a lot to fear? ;)

    Obama declares his support for gay marriage

    Doesn't Romney have the upperhand for both of those?

    Obama declares his support for gay marriage

    Does Romney have more money than Obama?

    Obama declares his support for gay marriage

    Then what is your explanation for Santorum winning the states that Romney outspent him for campaigning? Which of course supports my point about inciting the religious right. There will be huge attacks made on Obama because of this; and his reward minimal. Like I said, a miscalculation.

    And that the religious right to hold out as long as they did, DESPITE the wallet, speaks volume to what actually wins elections.

    Obama declares his support for gay marriage

    Does that benefit outweigh the attacks from the religious right? You've seen how much support Santorum has gotten and how far it took him in the primaries; against Romney whose wallet was MUCH deeper than his. If it was on purpose, it was a miscalculation.

    Obama declares his support for gay marriage

    If they're not committed to voting, how is that actually a gain? If Obama is going to incite the religious right (a force that must be acknowledged), don't you think that his gain would be more apparent, rather than betting on voters that may not even participate in the election? That's a risk...

    Obama declares his support for gay marriage

    I doubt it....3 days of testing the waters? C'mon... Anyway, it would have been much better for his campaign if he let it lie. It seems much more likely that Obama was coerced into the position. EDIT: I mean really....most of the gay votes are his already. What is there to gain for him? And...

    Obama declares his support for gay marriage

    Obama is not anti-Gay, but that's totally different from being pro-SSM. I believe he was deliberately avoiding the issue because it will hurt him in the re-election.

    Obama declares his support for gay marriage

    I don't think it was courage that prompted Obama to take up the issue of Gay Marriage...IIRC it was Biden's interview that attracted so much attention to the issue. If it wasn't for Biden, there would be no interest in Obama's stance on Gay Marriage. Basically, Obama was forced to take a side...

    Conservatives Continue to be Better Informed, More Intellectually Honest.

    So.....Conservatives continue to be better informed, intellectually honest.....was a joke? Seeing the progress this thread has taken, apparently it is a joke.

    Is God inside of time?

    Allow me another chance at explaining what I meant by state of mind. Have you ever found yourself driving without thinking about driving? As if you were on "auto pilot"? People often go on "auto pilot" if they drive frequently to the same places over and over, and it happens even more...

    Is God inside of time?

    I'm not sure I understand correctly... Caring requires a lot of thought, and that love is a state of caring....Are we not able to infer that love is a thought or at least similar to thought from that reasoning?
