  2. Hello,


    You can now get verified on forum.

    The way it's gonna work is that you can send me a PM with a verification picture. The picture has to contain you and forum name on piece of paper or on your body and your username or my username instead of the website name, if you prefer that.

    I need to be able to recognize you in that picture. You need to have some pictures of your self in your gallery so I can compare that picture.

    Please note that verification is completely optional and it won't give you any extra features or access. You will have a check mark (as I have now, if you want to look) and verification will only mean that you are who you say you are.

    You may not use a fake pictures for verification. If you try to verify your account with a fake picture or someone else picture, or just spam me with fake pictures, you will get Banned!

    The pictures that you will send me for verification won't be public


    Best regards,

    StanleyOG.

    And here come the insults............................skippy.............tsk, tsk.

    Your definitions are broad in generalizations. When the facts are researched, you will find that the U.S. is a Constitutional Republic, not a democracy where majority rules, but as rule of law rules.

    Thanks for playing, I had fun, it's always fun proving the fraud that you are.

    I'm not insulting you, and before you get all high and mighty, you might want to go back and look at the bottom you've thrown my way on this thread.

    You're still wrong, and you're still ignorance. And you're still repeating the same phrase and you haven't done any sort of research. You have proved nothing except how woefully uninformed you are about our country's government.

    You have made a fool of yourself, and you fell poignantly into the trap DL made.

    This is the sort of "trick question " that is on tests to fool those that don't read the question or didn't attend class except for exams. There's only one technically correct answer here.

    Stop it RoMmy, if this was an intended trap perpetrated by the master of nonsense, you both have failed miserably.

    The form of government intended to be used by the U.S. was a Constitutional Republic.....

    NOW......... If you 2 yo-yo's want to talk modern federal fucking government, then yes, it is a form of democracy, as I stated clearly, earlier, yes it has morphed into a ridiculous form of corruption, special interest groups, minority groups, social engineering, all the prime makings of a fucking lunatic democracy, of course barring all intents and purposes of the U.S. Constitution.

    You all speak as to what "it is supposed to be" in its many shade of gray forms. Not what it really is.

    Find political speeches that don't mention god because I can't in my book that marks us as a theocracy. More like a theocratic empire that's my view any way.

    Really, now?

    Dictionary.com "theocracy"

    1.a form of government in which God or a deity is recognized as the supreme civil ruler, the God's or deity's laws being interpreted by the ecclesiastical authorities.
    2.a system of government by priests claiming a divine commission.


    Which one of those definitions proves your point?

    Maybe one of these?

    Oxford Dictionary "theocracy"

    1. A system of government in which priests rule in the name of God or a god.

    Merriam-Webster:

    1. 1 : government of a state by immediate divine guidance or by officials who are regarded as divinely guided

    2. 2 : a state governed by a theocracy

    How about all of the above?
    Bush and god
    *not_secure_link*www.pierretristam.com/Bobst/07/wf081507.htm
    Obama and god
    *not_secure_link*m.huffpost.com/us/entry/obama-religious-quotes_n_1292116.html
    Clinton on God a faith
    *not_secure_link*www.beliefnet.com/News/Politics/2004/09/All-Of-Us-See-Through-The-Glass-Darkly.aspx

    You have to go all the way back to Thomas Jefferson to find a president who dose not claim his decisions in power are directed by god and that to me is a theocracy.

    So, the mere mention of God by a President makes us a theocracy? Nothing to do with that li'l ol' "First Amendment", which guarantees him freedom of speech, and also guarantees you that no one will make you become a member of a religion or church or anything like that.

    I dont speak as to what it is supposed to be, I speak as to what it is;

    1) We still have a Constitution.

    2) We still have separation of powers.

    3) We still have individual rights.

    And nobody's arguing otherwise. You just still have no idea what you're talking about.

    It's a phrase he read on a blog somewhere and repeats to his little friend over and over again like the philosophical platitude that it is.

    I haven't failed anything. There's only one answer here. Go take a civics test with the same question; you'd get it wrong.

      Of course not, if you do it, it just simply is correct. God, it must be tough being so damned perfect in someone's eyes.


      You need to get away from that mirror.

      No, it's just that the facts are facts. Ace doesn't understand the facts, and we're not even arguing about the same thing. All attempt to help bring him on that page have been unsuccessful, because he won't listen.
      Again, remember what I said? This is a trick question.

      Actually facts are not just facts, they are interpretations of each one's experiences. No two people view things exactly the same, there are nuances that move ones perception one way or the other. Every happening has millions of nuanced tidbits moving through it, how they hit any given person varies greatly. Just ask a cop or a lawyer how eye witnesses disagree on what they saw at precisely the same time and same place.

      Now when you are talking about opinions on top, it's anybody's guess on how the other guy will interpret it.

      That's not what a fact means. What you're referring to is the interpretation of facts. But a fact is a fact, and the question involved is a factual question. There's no need for interpretation.
