It used to be though, it's what sucked me in and held me. Joel Send a noteboard - 08/01/2011 12:57:53 AM
Don't you know what a rational, intellectual debate is?

nope... not really done here...

Sure, there was always the kneejerk extreme reactions (like this one) but if you skipped over them to people interested in those intelligent rational debates there were plenty of takers. Once, I was one of them, but familiarity has unfortunately bred a shameful amount of contempt, and maybe a little cynicism. Still, I find his intent and method laudable; sure, there will always be people quick to say anyone they disagree with about any topic have no right to an opinion, but that attitude relieves him of any responsibility to respond.

"Choose partners carefully to avoid this situation" cuts both ways; "choice" is the operative word. Joel - 14/03/2011 02:38:41 AM 803 Views

I wasn't aware women had a monopoly on dispassionate objective arguments. Joel - 08/01/2011 12:59:33 AM 614 Views
I wasn't aware they had the capacity for it *NM* random thoughts - 08/01/2011 02:45:54 AM 272 Views
Oh, I'm quite aware of and familiar with their capacity; hence my disappointment. Joel - 08/01/2011 03:01:41 AM 688 Views
It is true that the person with the uterus gets to make that decision. Beqi - 08/01/2011 01:46:15 AM 667 Views
Your arguments pro choice are poor. Helene - 07/01/2011 10:59:43 PM 851 Views
Gotta disagree with your rape argument Isaac - 07/01/2011 11:15:34 PM 760 Views

Discussion merits discourtesy apparently Isaac - 08/01/2011 03:24:09 AM 900 Views
At the end I did say that it was not you but the idea. I guess I didn't phrase that well enough. Tashmere - 08/01/2011 06:42:40 AM 721 Views

If you belive a child is a child from conception then does the means of conception change that? random thoughts - 08/01/2011 04:52:34 PM 744 Views
Not an argument or even completely applicable to what you just said. Just another viewpoint. Tashmere - 09/01/2011 01:06:19 AM 740 Views
