I'm wondering if cragman thinks he going to get a better spot in heaven??
There is always an angle. The more souls you collect, the better the spot.

Alright enough probably, if he could do better he would.

Okay, Cragman, just one more from me.
Just finished this...

Were the super big one to hit tomorrow (atheist god forbid) would this be due to (a) natural forces unfolding or (b) a wrathful God Jehovah, wrathful over abortions maybe? or wrathful because his flock is being too lazy? or what?
Better: Pretend it's not me asking but your grandchild. How would you model (the way the world works) for your grandchild when you answer?
.....
"Finally, in a 1996 article in Nature, a seismologist named Kenji Satake and three colleagues, drawing on the work of Atwater and Yamaguchi, matched that orphan to its parent—and thereby filled in the blanks in the Cascadia story with uncanny specificity. At approximately nine o’ clock at night on January 26, 1700, a magnitude-9.0 earthquake struck the Pacific Northwest, causing sudden land subsidence, drowning coastal forests, and, out in the ocean, lifting up a wave half the length of a continent."
Science and history, bffs!

Well technically, a single-celled sperm has the spark of life in it, so in the interests of preserving life, stop jacking off. You know who you are.

You guys are hopeless.
Not you though.
Or do we humans mean "not me"? :-) Lots of us humans seem to mean that, for some reason or other.

Wildlife "management" is one issue, and is open to debate among those with a genuine interest in species survival.
Trophy hunting, where sick, twisted millionaires get their tiny little penises hard by murdering the best genetic representatives of a species is a completely different issue. There is absolutely no defence for this activity.
And as for you cragman, since you were too cowardly to read and respond to my earlier post, are you willing to help create a nation where ALL U.S. citizens have access to free birth control and family planning information?
Also, cragman, do you have the integrity to get out there and work to ensure that those who are presently unable to provide a decent living environment for an unplanned child have access to the funds to raise that unplanned child to adulthood?
Or, at the very minimum will you and every one of your Tea Party buddies publicly pledge to adopt every single one of these unwanted fetuses (NOT children), if carried to term - including all expenses incurred by the mother during her pregnancy - especially health care?
Answer these questions, dammit. So far, all you've managed to achieve is a magnificent verbal imitation of a particularly boring & scratched phonograph record.

Some day, I hope to sit upon a high horse issuing forth authoritative declarations of righteous intolerance.
Some day.

GLillegard: Accepting your information at face value, can I assume these dedicated guardians of wildlife work tirelessly to ensure the survival of the superior genetic representatives of the species and the trophy hunters happily killed the "inferior" rhinos to get their death fix?
Where are you hiding, cragman?
Sycorax: I don't have any tolerance in my heart for males (or their female clones, for that matter) who try to inflict their fanatical religious beliefs upon women. Furthermore, I don't see anything especially intolerant in the questions I have addressed to cragman.

Why not be tolerant of Cragman's viewpoint, considering tolerance is the hallmark of liberalism?
paunched sauages yammering away... lol
sully!!!!1
lol!
We are tolerant. Cragman's exercising his free speech.
Is he not?
Better: what's YOUR meaning of "tolerant" ?
PS
What's up with all this allusion to males, the male sex, or to the male sex organ lately?
It seems it's in every post now?

Hi Fructose!
It's an attack born of anger against the manliness of trophy hunters and their hypocrisy
in attempting to rationalize what they do by creating the false equivalence that the morality of their actions are equalized by their doing good deeds, like "culling the herd" and having
a fraction of their hunting permit fees going towards "wildlife conservation", etc

GLillegard: If you had read my earlier post, you would have noted that I stated that responsible wildlife management is one issue and is open to debate, while the murder of superior genetic representatives of a species by jaded millionaires is another. My comment stands.
High Fructose Corn Spirit: OK... freedom of speech - you're clearly not terribly bright, and too lazy to read my earlier suggestions that, if implemented, would dramatically reduce the need for abortions in the first place. Also, your limited intelligence precludes you from considering the days when legal abortion options were non-existent - women dying slow and agonizing deaths from botched coat-hanger procedures and other forms of butchery. I remember those days quite clearly, since at least once I was asked to perform such an operation in spite of the fact that my medical training was nowhere close to the level that was needed to do so in safety.
Gotta love freedom of speech, HFCS. Better people than you have fought and died to protect it

You might want to ease off on this Stewart. Whatever you think of Cragman's views on abortion, or anything else, he actually has done more than most people for unwanted/orphaned children.

um yeah
and calling Fructose not terribly bright along with other personal insults is not cool by me
I know Fructose, I admire his intellect and value his friendship
just saying, maybe don't be so hair trigger in your judgments

Relax, Stu, my post wasn't directed at you or in your direction in any way.
EDIT
Ah, thanks, Norton.
I hope everything is going good your way.
