Re: Why Reason is with the Catholics
What, you want to prove liberals are irrational or something? All people are, that's a fact. There are things about us that are absolutely irrational, whether it be our fears (spiders, caves, heights, all other phobias) or our hopes (there is an afterlife, I will get out of here alive, war will end, et al). Can we reason? Sure. Do we? sometimes.
now then, on to your "proofs":
what the hell? They literally make no sense. When does crossing a border, where you can get killed or sent back, make sense? or is rational? Number two--no duh! of course muslim terrorists are muslims. What does evolution and catholics have to do with any of this? All religions teach a version of creation--whether it's a woman falling from the sky, being caught by animals that then make land, or a God who made the universe and everything in it in seven days. Again, rational, reason? Christians have reacted violently, jst not in our recent history. Learn about the KKK? Response to a precieved attack on their religion. Muslim extremist, meet KKK. KKK, meat muslim extremist. If you can get over the other following a false god, you'll find much in common, and get along. How are these proof's of the pope's reasoning about Islam? If anything, it says something about man in general under the influence of religion.
One last thing--is it liberal to wonder what Pyongyang plans on doing? instead of just waiting for them to do that something?
Oh, notice the total lack of flaming? Apparently we are capable of being rational at times.

Re: Assimilation
You are a classic liberal. You reinforce what Savage and others speak about
you know, Mill (I think it was him) was a classical liberal, and he had a phrase for conservatives:
All stupid (or is ignorant a better term?) people are conservatives. There's a second part, that applies to very few people, of which you aren't. Ever wonder why the lesser educated (aware, whatever) tend to be conservative?

Re: The Kuresu's Faulty Thesis
and you say I have a faulty thesis. lol.
my dad alone is disprove of your thesis. Crashfrog is disprove of this. Omnivorus has served in our army--ever read the 9-11 Disney thread started by cranston?
All I see conservative's doing is arguing over stupid stuff--like how my thesis is wrong.
oh, by the way--you never showed how my thesis was wrong--you just stated that conservatives do a bunch of things that have no bearing on education. Actually try showing how lesser educated people tend not to be conservative if you want to disprove my thesis.
abe w/o edit:
(last time I checked, Bill Gates created a butt-load of jobs)
abe (this one is an edit):
since when did Virginia join the heartland? methinks you need to review your geography of the lessons. those ignorant conservatives
