Hi. 

Atheist, centrist, father, middle-aged, gun owner/yet against guns; horrified at recent election/disgusted with those who didn't bother to vote who voted for Obama last time. Sorry, I'm way preoccupied with the election results right now, so I'm afraid I'm gonna be a one-note instrument for awhile. 

I'll try to do better. 

Thanks for having me. Smile

Welcome. I hate guns myself, but it certainly is a myth that liberals want to take every single firearm away, merely were saying we have gun death problem and just like you cant drive a military armed tank on a public road, no, you don't need big clips or spray weapons.

I am pissed off too, not at the electoral college but at the infighting in my party, our party's failure to learn from Gore and our long term apathy in local and state elections. I don't want a gun right now regardless of my depression an anxiety, but if you listen to the "no rules" right wing gun nuts, since I have no record, I could literally go to a gun shop today, pass a background check, and nothing could stop me. 

But that sick demagogue has turned the White House into his own fake reality TV studio. My friend in Australia and my X wife who lives in Japan are scared like me. I am sure most sane on this planet are.

If we are lucky, he will simply keep his mess on the ground as far as a war and not cause a civil war here. IF WE ARE LUCKY.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Since I'm still a couple of cups of coffee away from functional, I opened the thread expecting some kind of "Minimalist Best-Of" despite its being in the Introductions section.

So welcome!

And may I add -- in the nicest way possible -- blow Jesus out your ass.

Thanks for the welcomes. Smile

But Crossless1, I had a Jesus-ectomy some 2+ decades ago, so while I appreciate your medical advice, that procedure has already been successfully performed.

There is a cure for Trump; a cure for all these ills: Voting. Frankly, I don't feel like looking outward at all those who voted for Trump. I did enough of that prior to the election. This is a time for the American center and left to look inward. The simplest thing to understand is basic math. There are more of us than there are of them, yet our side of the aisle's laziness put them in power. There's more to it than that, but that's what the politics forum is for.

Hi there. Min is one of the most well known people here, i'm sure, and a pretty awesome guy. Though I don't agree with him on everything. I don't know whether to be afraid he's bringing friends, or not. Tongue

Just kidding! If Min said it, it was probably accompanied by a half-dozen "fucks" is what I was implying.

Welcome to the forums!
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

-Stephen Jay Gould
