    California Supreme Court struck down the state's gay marriage ban

    Conviction for YOUR religion, you mean. Would a Hindu who has great religious conviction acknowledge "that God had a reason for creating Man and woman"? Well, we've had problems with the whole "separate but equal" thing in the past. But to me, at least, the name seems kind of trivial. I think...

    Clinton, not winning the DNC nomination

    Well, it depends on what counts as "liberal." Is there a particular sort of case that serves as a good benchmark for this?

    Yeah, but corn in the United States is, if I'm not mistaken, the most subsidized crop in the world. And it's quite the cash crop.

    California Supreme Court struck down the state's gay marriage ban

    I'll admit it's nitpicking. But I don't think of it as my own choice of words. I don't know. It seems fairly standard. As far as a "bill of responsibilities" I do think it's a great idea. But responsibilities vary from person to person. A list of universal human responsibilities would be pretty...

    So someone who has never committed a crime and has no intention of doing so is a danger to society?

    I think Istanbul was lurking semi-recently.

    Ah. I found it. After my time, so I was completely unaware of it... # 420.5n - If a permanent has both a +1/+1 counter and a -1/-1 counter on it, N +1/+1 and N -1/-1 counters are removed from it, where N is the smaller of the number of +1/+1 and -1/-1 counters on it. [CompRules 2006/10/01]...

    Gas/Oil

    It would mean that the government pays for part it in order to lower the price. So if it were going to be $3.00, the government throws in enough money to keep the price down to $0.45 instead. I don't know that the Saudi government subsidizes it at all though. I would have thought they didn't...

    RIP Albert Hoffman

    Correct.

    Does this work? The wording on the Redcap suggests that it wouldn't, because it says it gets returned to play if it had no -1/-1 counters, and after the first time it was returned, it would have a -1/-1 counter on it. I thought the +1/+1 counter merely canceled out the effect of the -1/-1...

    Clinton, not winning the DNC nomination

    So which justice would he be having assassinated? Or would the assumption be that one of the current ones will kick the bucket sometime soon?

    California Supreme Court struck down the state's gay marriage ban

    I'll grant you that for terrorists if you like. It's a matter of semantics. We arrest people for murder, trying to blow stuff up, etc. Not for being a terrorist or admitting to being a terrorist. I would say that terrorists should have the same rights as everyone else. But being able to commit...

    Yes, I'm double-posting. Sue me. Actually, I just thought my post was getting a little long and I wanted to address DF's last post separately. Okay, so Modus did open up the biblical contradictions can of worms. While I don't mind discussing that, it seems like it would hijack the thread. I...

    California Supreme Court struck down the state's gay marriage ban

    Um, first amendment again? The government doesn't get a say in who churches appoint as leaders. If a church wants to exclude gays from being pastors or whatever, it can. And if a church wants to have a gay pastor, it can do that too. Um, yes. Why not? Fine, except what's this about a right...

    California Supreme Court struck down the state's gay marriage ban

    I think I actually agree with most of what you're saying, but I'm confused as to what your actual stance is. Fair enough, but how would the government waste money on "debate"? My understanding is that it's about equal rights (uh, from the perspective of the people who want legalized gay...
