As much as I disagree with more than 90% of his views, his posts are articulate and thoughtful, that's not trolling. So debate/argue with the opposition, that's what these sites are here for, that's not something you're free to do in every country in the world.

I would agree if there was actual debate as opposed to bomb throwing polemics filled with code word messages from the tin foil hat club.

I don't recall Christ endorsing sloth and parasitic behavior. In fact, sloth is one of the 7 deadly sins.

Duh.

1) I was responding to someone who alleged : "The only legitimate role of government is to protect private property rights and enforce contracts."

2) What reason is there to believe your interpretation is any better than anyone else's/

Because "promote" does NOT mean "provide." Duh.

And what's worse, the CD Conservatives are coming into the thread and doubling down on the OP's nonsensical rant.

They're all pretending to be rugged individualists, when in fact, they're probably all on more government programs than a military base.

Just read the tripe. They're trying too hard, and that's always a sign of guilt and self loathing. Their act ain't convincing.

I really wish Admin in this section would consider limiting the number of new posts created per day....

You can point out what was lied about today? Should be easy, the way you talk about the guy.

So? Ignore them. Responding to them, no matter how insidious, only enables their behavior, but in reality I think some other posters enjoy the battle.

And your little phrase there that you are so fond of is a logical fallacy, not that I would expect you to understand how to recognize that.

It is flattering as hell!!

You don't realize... This is pure entertainment, or I would not be here.
You take yourself way to seriously.
