  1. She would then by comparable only to Louis Riel!
  2. I have written higher that Omar, from my perpective, should be guarded in a psychiatric institution.
  3. To illustrate a bit: after wars in Europe, British demilitarized soldiers were pushed in New World British colonies.
  4. There is no such thing as innocent victim for polytheists.
  5. A Canadian adult, not a Canadian child though. Back to square one!
  6. Witches were only kind of polytheists; Muslims nowadays go after them as "infidels".
  7. Conversion is like the creation of a "second nature".
  8. Even the most symbiotic circle of criminals needs to recruit new members. It does it mostly by making prejudicial jokes about their future victims as tests to evaluate the cynical potential of candidates. It is at this stage that public enthusiasm can dismantle these circles.
  9. Complete leaps of faith were in 1585 and are still today in short supply.
  10. The Christian truth (called revelation) is that myths are teaching tools to achieve peace through sacrifices of innocent victims.
  11. So much fine creativity up here on the part of the Greeks.
  12. I think this imperialism hides something deeper. English persons (much like French persons for that matter) immigrating to Canada were too often pushed here involuntarily in an attempt to escape misery at home. From there, they may be unable to express directly a taste for revenge.
  13. A serpent tempted Eve, who was aware of the prohibition, to eat the forbidden fruit from the Tree of Knowledge (Genesis 3:1-6).
  14. All to the contrary! Public enthusiasm (however little we have left) is what overwhelmingly constrained the greedy to reveal themselves through the pathologies they develop by reacting to this enthusiasm.
  15. A more revealing question is: if science happen to create new life forms, would not this prove creation?
  16. I will even attempt to go farther since you give me some moral credit to spend: those English Canadians who want to block outside influences on their mother tongue and culture may be doing it because they want to be able to easily go back in and reintegrate England, once Canada will be fully exploited and spoiled.
  17. All to the contrary, if some Canadians are happy with no communication skills, it is mostly due, I would guess, because they earn too easily too much money by overexploiting nature.
  18. Socrates knew one thing.
  19. By proposing innovative ways to detect conflicts of interest, one can be elected president of his state and then he has a chance to pardon who he wants to.
  20. The law has obviously been changed since capital punishment has been outlawed.
  21. At best, these persons are all unreliable witnesses.
  22. Something admitted under torture is very disputed today.
  23. Also, French seems less white than English for Leftless.
  24. "Maieutic" and "irony" are the two Socratic methods; that is why Socrates asserted: "I only know that I know nothing".
