Words have meaning. This system is prohibiting things. One can argue that other systems do also but this one is suppose to be Christ centered. I disagree that it is. At best it's Old Testament centered and at worse it's hate centered.

I could literally go on ad nauseam, but sadly, it probably wouldn't matter...

I said illicit sex was the root cause of HIV and AIDS. Every example you listed had its root, either directly or indirectly, in an act of illicit sex as defined as 'sex other than that in a married hetero relationship" which is the Catholic Chruch's only acceptable situation for sex. Which is what I said in the earlier post. So where are the factually inaccuracies?

It's actually 2-3%
He certainly makes a lot of interesting "typos".

Yw, althought Medishare, which is advertised on Rush isn't quite as good as Samaritan, in my view. Samaritan is cheaper, and payments go directly to other members and not a central location.

I wonder what the record is on C-D for number of posts by a single poster in one thread? OP must be getting near that. You're gonna need that Samaritans policy for the Carpal Tunnel you're probably getting.

Yes they did kill many but the people in Germany were Christians, Russia even with their Communism are Christians you don't get to discount them because you don't approve of them. The other 2 who knows but your figure is arbitrary and inflammatory you have no valid reference to support it.
