We are discussing adoption you fuckwitted troll.
No one has suggested that adoptive parents who rape their children are better than foster homes.

No one has suggested that adoptive child abusers are better than well run care homes.

No one has suggested putting children in the hands of adoptive child abusers is a great idea.

You said we said anything.

You are a liar.

LIAR!!!!!!!!!

You are only looking at the adoption problem and think that anything is better than the kids remaining unadopted.

At no point has anyone on this thread suggested that anything is better. Anything? Child rape? Abuse? Daily whippings?

By my calculation, if we gave Appleby an enema, he could be buried in a matchbox.

I think homosexuals are better off living in communities of their .own. They'll be more comfortable there. I don't mind having them as my neighbour. I would prefer a straight person, though.

Some statements just need underlining.

You *do* realize you are calling me prejudiced (several times now already) based on my personal feelings about homosexuality, don't you? Are you sure you want to continue?
Given that you are a self-confessed homophobic bigot, we will wait and see what he writes.

314. Comment #187381 by Appleby -

I could replace 'fucking cats' with 'homosexuality' almost word-for-word in your post (refer Comment #187371). And that's my point. You essentially have no reason to stop people from fucking cats (or any other animal for that matter) because of your support for homosexuality.
One word: consent.
And if I have to explain to you why a society where men fuck exclusively women is better off than one where men fuck other men...then you clearly have some twisted ideas.
Spot the bigot contest. No evidence, personal prejudice.

Guilt has been proven beyond reasonable doubt. All that remains is that I pronounce sentence on this miserable individual.

Perhaps after lunch.

263. Richard Dawkins interviewed by John Humphrys on Cardinal Murphy O'Connor

Comment #187339 by irate_atheist on June 2, 2008 at 2:09 am

192. Comment #187331 by hcaroe -

I like Cardinal Murphy O'Connor.
That's never a good start.
I think the only reason any of you listen to Richard Dawkins is because he is a big bully (listen to the tone of voice he uses) who is setting himself up as God, and to be worshipped.
Indeed. He is well known for threats of violence and eternal damnation for those who do not follow his non-creed. [/sarcasm]
Look at the photos at the top of the page!
What? The one with O'Connor in a dress? Surely some mistake.
Surely you have better things to do than hanging around here, being bitter.
Unlike the Murphys, I'm not bitter.
Maybe try praying.

Comment #186318 by irate_atheist on May 30, 2008 at 6:23 am

196. Comment #186307 by al-rawandi -

I see two major concerns you raise in the 'free' versus 'free market' healthcare debate:

1. Quality of treatment.

2. Cost of treatment (through tax/insurance) to the patient.

These are both valid points - and important.

I am adding the 'fairness' concern. The trickiest of the lot...

I suppose my approach in life is to tend towards 'fairness' at the slight expense of, well, expense. Unlike FF, I'm pleased my tax pays for the treatment of people I may well never meet. (Yes, I am narked by how some of the money is spent, but no system is perfect). Society as a whole - of which I am part - benefits.

I am of the opinion that access to healthcare should be based on clinical need and not cost (to the patient). Others may have a different opinion.

270. That's it. Texas really is doomed.

125. Comment #185980 by FightingFalcon -

You say that you and your sister are happy with government-run health care - I just hope you don't require a highly technical surgical procedure that puts you on a waiting list where you will never see a doctor. Are you also happy knowing that the amount of money that you give to the government in additional taxes could have easily paid for a private insurance program that would have been much more efficient?
1. Replacing aorta - not a tricky technical procedure? Is that why she's being operated on by one of the UK's top heart surgeons in a specialist unit?

2. More efficient - maybe, maybe not. How much of the 'efficiency savings' turn into 'profits'?

The really interesting thing was, however, that when each team was asked to select a team member to remove, all but one of the teams selected the devil's advocate.

Blair is clearly a fucktard. A danger to all he deals with. The man can't even recognise truth, let alone tell it. Dire, dire, dire. Why did no one spill the beans on this cretin years ago? Religion Poisons Everything.

The late Lord (Roy) Jenkins did say Blair had "...a first class political temperament but only a second class mind."


Given Bliar's stupidity as regards the Iraq war and other debacles, Lord Jenkins may have been only half right...

That is correct. You cease to experience anything as your brain is no longer active. Big deal. An Appeal to Emotion, nothing else.

Today I am not in the mood for taking prisoners. It is, after all, a Friday. And I go 'tard hunting on Fridays.

160. Comment #130085 by The Bishop -

In response:

Luke 19:27 - "But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay [them] before me."

Matthew 10:34-39 "Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I came to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and a man's enemies will be the members of his household. He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who has found his life will lose it, and he who has lost his life for My sake will find it."


Nice bloke, eh?

Nothing like Jim Jones or David Koresh in any respect. [/sarcasm]

Those who can't afford health care should have it subsidized by the government.
Ah, but what should and what should not be subsidised. Who should and who should not be helped? Are we talking about a sliding scale of financial assistance or are there cut-off points?

P.S - Put your strawman away. Gasoline might be expensive, but I can still afford a gallon or two of the stuff and a lighter to go with it :)

P.P.S - Pah!! Windmills are for Dutchmen. We aim lower in the UK, usually heading for the gutter and hoping we'll hit the pavement on the way down.

When people get really really sick, anywhere in the world, they fly to the united states for treatment, not belgium
In some cases, perhaps. In other cases, perhaps they can't afford extortionate American fees and die. Those who live in free at point of use systems - that are world class - need not fly anywhere or bankrupt themselves or their families and also live.

Sometimes, just sometimes, your pseudo-arrogant one-tracked pro-americanism grates. It really does.

114. Comment #185958 by esuther -

Here in the UK, if a governemt introduced legislation so that a Doctor's visit - or visit to the Doctor - were chargeable, well, I wouldn't bet on them being re-elected. Free at point of use medical services in the UK were a hard won universal right that was opposed by the Doctors themselves. Why? Because they could previously charge extortionate amounts - and if you couldn't afford it and died as a result, it was tough shit.

There's a lot of BS on this thread about how bad universal healthcare is. Try being uninsurable - through any provider, and requiring a replacement aorta due to an untreatable genetic disorder, before you start bullshitting on this subject. My sister's quite happy for things to be just as they are, thank you very much. And funnily enough, so am I.
