		<description>WHY THE USA HAD TO HELP IN THE KILLINGS IN CHILE?
DID THEY WANT OUR COPPER AS THEY WANT NOW IRAKI OIL?

WAS IT WORTH OF?
IS IT WORTH OF NOW?

KILLINGS WILL NOT STOP, THAT IS WHAT MAN IS MADE OF, HATRED.
SO,  HELP ME GOD TO LIVE IN THIS KIND OF WORLD</description>

You are indeed self-righteous.  I unlike you have have no blood stains on my hands or soul.  You are the poor soul my friend.  My youth, old man has two advantages in this case.  One, I was not a participant like you in this bloody orgy that Pinochet and Allende (and his socialist and communist stooges) engaged in.  I am merely a victim of the crimes perpetuated upon a democratic nation and its people by Allende and then Pinochet.  Second, my loyalty is only to the truth.  I can only hope now with Pinochet's death that the Communists and socialists finally speak to their role in this bloody orgy.  I like many Chileans know that the socialists and communists have blood on their hands.  We also know they do not have the courage to confess their sins.  Do you have the courage to come clean or will you hide behind your American citizenship and liberal calling card?  

Old man time is ticking come clean your youthful indiscretions can be confessed before  you leave us.</description>

		<description>Marc,

As much as I enjoy the pointless arguing over three ancient wise men and global warming, I'd like to ask a question about the topic at hand.  Have you read the &lt;a href="http://chicagoboyz.net/archives/004624.php" rel="nofollow"&gt; piece&lt;/a&gt; on Allende over at chicagoboyz?

I'm most curious about your recollection of a document Dorta calls the "Statute of Democratic Guarentees".  Did that agreement actually exist, and did he represent it accurately?  Based on Dorta's article, the legitimacy of the coup seems to hang on the document and the political situation surrounding its inception.</description>

		<description>"and that global warming will soon result in the flooding of coastal cities"

No one is saying this including Al Gore. It will rise a meter every 100 years at this rate. That's three feet and a conservative estimate. 

The CO2 is measurable, and so is the global mean rise of 1 degree Celsius this century. This is proven. Fixing it will generate income and increase the GDP not detract from it.</description>

		<description>Grow up, those 3000 were casualties of war. Iwo Jima? 6 thousand killed, thirteen thousand wounded. For one island.

I hate to break it to you, but to save MY country from being sold out to Moscow I'd happily kill three hundred thousand, including you and your family.

Communists, like nazis, deserve to die.</description>

		<description>reg, some things are meant to solicit a smile and others are meant to be belly laughers.  I doubt that you have the ability to know the difference and to do either.  And, to not see the joke about Earnest Angely and to attack me with that just proves that you're not as bright as you would like everyone to think.

More on global warming:  &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZc4d3vT1dU&#38;mode=related&#38;search=" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stick this in your ear&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
Be sure to take this seriously.</description>

		<description>Incidentally, Woody, I doubt that the Library of Congress has taken an official position on the national origin of the 3 Wise Men.  But I'm not infallible (like the guy at the Vatican, which you also cite) so I could be wrong.</description>

		<description>So Woody's relying for his highly "left-brained logic rather than emotions" on Ernest "Untold Multitudes Have Been Healed As They Put Their Hand Against Mine On The TV Screen" Angley, the crazy televangelist ???  
I love it.  And  I rest my case...</description>

		<description>Samuel, right-wing people are conservative, use logic rather than emotions, and are left-brained.  We were in classes while the others were out protesting and smoking weed. 

Do you know what is the absolute maximum number of years that carbon dating is useful?  That has been an important question on this site.

Hint:  Iraq is related in some way...surely.</description>

		<description>"One of the bases of the theory that the Wise Men came from Babylon"

Good stuff!  Now if you can just get to work on the theory of how many angels can fit on a pinhead, what the harps in heaven are made of, and how Santa Clause can deliver presents to all the children of the world in one evening, then we'll really be getting somewhere!

Sigh, you right-wing fundies would do well to stop all your fuzzy right-brain thinking and start learning to use logical reasoning and the scientific method.  Fortunately for us, your kind hasn't ruined America's standing as the world's center of scientific progress.  Yet.</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;reg&lt;/b&gt;, the correct answer, as I said, is that no one knows--it's all speculation.  I wasn't trying to relate a "fact," as what I was writing was a little tongue-in-cheek and really didn't matter.  But, I forgot that I was communicating with people with no sense of humor.  

One of the bases of the theory that the Wise Men came from Babylon is that the people from that area had the necessary and related understanding of astronomy while the people from the area of Persia did not--and, people who are not contemporary have speculated the same.  But, you know everything so I'll inform the Vatican, the Library of Congress, and Ernest Angley to throw out everything that contradicts you.

&lt;b&gt;publius&lt;/b&gt;, please give me the scientific proof from your testing process that mankind is primarily responsible for global warming and that global warming will soon result in the flooding of coastal cities per Al Gore.  I think your "science" comes up short, so forgive me for not buying in and wanting to take 20% of our GNP to fight an unproven.  I take pride in not throwing away money.</description>

There is. Only those paid not to be purport not to believe it. But science is not a belief system. It's a testing process. That makes it a proven fact.

		<description>Woody,  your "magi" theory is coming, so far as I can tell, mostly from contemporary fundamentalist "scholars" intent on scavenging indications of fulfillment of various scraps of old testament prophecies. To put this "alternative theory" forward as a certain or even a "most credible" conclusion - since it contradicts all original interpretations and requires some rather extensive, round-about speculation rather than relying on  a historical understanding of the origins of the Zoroastrian tradition and where it was based, which was Persia - offers real insight into your approach to deducing what you claim as knowledge.  You made a statement as fact regarding interpretation of a blbilical tale that is the least likely of all extant explanations. Yes, while there's no disputing the origin of this class of priests as Persian, such tales are open to speculative deduction and all things are possible. But there's no justification for repeatedly selling the improbable as "fact" - which you've done with damn near every issue discussed here from Iraq to global warming.  Take your head out of your ass for a change...</description>
