To believe that the Spanish voters rejected their current government because they were scared of Al Qai-da is frankly based on ignorance.

Many Spanish people were disgusted when the government cynically tried to use the tragedy for election purposes. The going government denies it but it looks like ...

SIAT (shacking in abject terror)

not laughing at all.

Dark ages indeed.

All of you seem to think that the BBC deserves criticism. Lets get a sense of proportion. The BBC might have been a bit slack in its editorial control and slow to apologise. But lets face it - you can't shackle your top reporters - if you do they produce mediocre journalism, the flip side is that ...

@ curdis you seem a bit on edge lately...

this is nothing but a relaxed discussion among friends.

Are they stressing you out down under?

I brought up utilitarianism because it, in its classical formulation, is simple and unambiguous. Rather more complex is the issue whether the truth of moral ...

I don't know that most people would agree withyour next to last statement. As for the last one, it seems that Utilitarianism, if I understand you correctly, doesn't define good and bad but rather swaps them out for degrees of pleasure or gain. (Not necessarily material ...

According to utilitarianism the moral right action would be the one that involves the least suffering (or the most pleasure). I this case it might be very hard to determine what is the right course of action. If the choices cause the same amount of overall pain or pleasure then the choice is morally ...

What about those who do evil believing it to be neither one thing or another, but simply the best way to survive? Truffaut once said that the Hitlers of this world only exist because of the millions of people who perform "little evils" on a daily basis. How does one ...

Having read some of your other posts I can?t believe that you ...

I agree with fable.

This is not born out of fascism but rather a misguided idea of enforcing secularism across the board. Another thing that might have added to the case for a ban is the fact that many women?s groups, including Islamic ones, have argued that forcing women to wear a veil is ...

I dislike all forms of religion and so I hope the entire RCC goes the same way as their pope.

The RCC being humanistic at times? I must disagree.

John XXIII is certainly an interesting pope but I don’t think he deserves much praise - exept perhaps for casting a bad light on the RCC.

If you switch to Linux (free) you could use Kivio from KDE or dia (both free).

I haven’t tried them but have heard they are good.

hi there HLD

Good to see you back.

Perhaps sanctions can work as HLD says; china would be hard hit and we are seeing a far more pragmatic approach, in some arrears, by the Chinese government. As for any European or US government having the guts to implement any kind of sanctions I seriously doubt ...
