-1=e^ipi Posted August 22, 2014 Author Report Posted August 22, 2014 zactly! You could have... should have... stopped right there and acknowledged your selectively targeted anti-immigration question/OP is failed. ^ Grammar fail. the theory of evolution does not allow you to carve out selectively targeted anti-immigration "story-telling narratives/beliefs" - the theory is the theory. Of course not. Where did I make such a claim? Quote
-1=e^ipi Posted August 22, 2014 Author Report Posted August 22, 2014 It's discriminatory because any old citizen can tell the Queen to go fill-in-blank-here and not a thing will happen to them whereas the new citizen will be turfed. Thank you for your honesty. At least you are being consistent here, unlike other posters. Quote
eyeball Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 I definitely think we should be screening for and weeding out sycophancy. Quote A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.
waldo Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 ^ Grammar fail. do tell - splain it to me, hey! Of course not. Where did I make such a claim? see your story-telling nonsense attempting to create fallicious subsets within evolutionary theory Quote
-1=e^ipi Posted August 22, 2014 Author Report Posted August 22, 2014 see your story-telling nonsense attempting to create fallicious subsets within evolutionary theory What 'story-telling nonsense' am I performing and what 'fallicious subsets' am I creating? Back up your claims with evidence please. Quote
waldo Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 What 'story-telling nonsense' am I performing and what 'fallicious subsets' am I creating? Back up your claims with evidence please. which derivative umbrella are you speaking under? Quote
-1=e^ipi Posted August 22, 2014 Author Report Posted August 22, 2014 which derivative umbrella are you speaking under? I'm asking you to back up your claims with evidence. How is that not clear? Quote
waldo Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 I'm asking you to back up your claims with evidence. How is that not clear? your "young Earth creationist" subset "story-telling" is a real howler! Again, the theory is the theory... if you believe in the theory of evolution... you believe in the theory of evolution. Quote
Mighty AC Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 1. Something has to discriminate against a 'class' of people to be discriminatory now? 2. Could you define these classes of people for me? I know Trudeau tried to define the 'middle class' as 'anyone not living off of their savings'. Uh...ok. I don't know about P.E.T's middle class definition but I can see why pledging allegiance to a monarch when natural born citizens don't have to is discriminatory. Additionally, is radical Islam and religiosity in general a problem? Yes....but I don't think your evolution question is a viable solution.

-1=e^ipi Posted September 2, 2014 Author Report Posted September 2, 2014 Again, the theory is the theory... if you believe in the theory of evolution... you believe in the theory of evolution. Yes, you understand the concept of a tautology. Congrats. What is your point? Quote
-1=e^ipi Posted September 2, 2014 Author Report Posted September 2, 2014 Anyway, just to clarify, I don't really advocate the implementation of such an immigration restriction. I was more interested in how many people would be strongly opposed to it and what kind of reasons they would give. Would people claim that such a restriction is immoral because it goes against 'human rights' or would people claim that such a policy shouldn't be implemented because it would be ineffective? Would people have a position that is consistent with their position on the current requirement of immigrants needing to pledge alliegence to the Queen in order to obtain citizenship? Quote
