Acceptance or approval of what is planned or done by another; acquiescence. See synonyms at permission. 2. Agreement as to opinion or a course of action: She was chosen by common consent to speak for the group. People, at least in this country and most Western countries...

I expected the e-atheists to go a bit nuts in response to the Battleships posts. True to form, they rolled out the usual half-witted bullshit demonstrating their ignorance about racism. I've been puzzling over the response of the theists in the community. Their irrational responses seemed unusually defensive - so much so that I thought they were just reacting emotionally to the authorship rather than...

Guess what? I got my Legion Flight Ring in the mail today. It's kind of big, by which I mean it has a high profile, but it's pretty awesome. Unfortunately, I still can't fly. I'll have to call Cosmic Boy and complain. Top Commenters on doctoreon 's LiveJournal (Self and anonymous comments excluded from rankings) 1 popelizbet 425 2 pretzelcoatl...

During debates about religion, I've often come across an argument by critics that is meant to illustrate the incoherence of theological claims by contrasting them with scientific ones.

After careful (and I do mean "careful") consideration, which has included his messages, your comments, and his past behavior, I have decided not to unban essius . Even if he is sincere in one moment, I do not think he can control himself in the next. It must be remembered that his behavior prompted a warning before the crapflood for which he was banned. The crapflood was simply the last...

It's not his fault! It the fault of that diabolical master manipulator ('cast of characters') who influenced him . Of course, essius ' apology is as fake as his last one, but it's nice to see the persecution complices of antitheism meet the persecution complex of essius . If they don't unban him, he's being persecuted. If they do unban him, they're not protecting the atheist...

As you all know, I do what I think is right regardless of public opinion. In this case, I seek your opinion because I think that is the right thing to do, to collect more information before making a decision. Keep that in mind: I have NOT made a decision. This message comes to you from essius , who gave us our first crapflood (for an hour and forty minutes, no less!) on the morning of...
