Don't bother...

...it's like trying to explain to a fish he's swimming in water.

(No offense meant, Imric - I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to use that one)

"Here at Ortillery Command we have at our disposal hundred megawatt laser beams, mach 20 titanium rods and guided thermonuclear bombs. Some people say we think that we're God. We're not God. We just borrowed his 'SMITE' button for our fire control system."

ps. Should you feel the need to respond to this - (imric) - (60) - Jan. 14, 2005, 12:55:13 PM EST

The differences between us are not that great. - (mmoffitt) - (59) - Jan. 14, 2005, 09:37:20 PM EST

I think it's a chasm. Almost insuperable. - (imric) - (58) - Jan. 14, 2005, 10:11:56 PM EST

Okay, let's simplify. - (mmoffitt) - (5) - Jan. 14, 2005, 10:28:05 PM EST

Because your 'obvious answer' is wrong. - (imric) - (2) - Jan. 14, 2005, 10:52:24 PM EST

FWIW, I am not an aetheist. - (mmoffitt) - (1) - Jan. 16, 2005, 02:26:14 PM EST

ROFL - (imric) - Jan. 16, 2005, 03:05:42 PM EST

Sounds to me like you've got 2 groups. - (Another Scott) - (1) - Jan. 14, 2005, 10:56:39 PM EST

I don't need to flesh it out further. - (mmoffitt) - Jan. 16, 2005, 02:28:07 PM EST

"The tyranny of the majority" must be fought at all costs. - (a6l6e6x) - (51) - Jan. 14, 2005, 10:28:45 PM EST

And it is SO much worse than the ordinary kind, right? - (imric) - (50) - Jan. 14, 2005, 10:49:42 PM EST

Well, we could start with having a similar # voting machines - (Ashton) - (49) - Jan. 16, 2005, 06:37:05 AM EST

Not fine; in danger. - (imric) - (48) - Jan. 16, 2005, 08:44:15 AM EST

Too late? We'll see. - (mmoffitt) - (47) - Jan. 16, 2005, 02:33:38 PM EST

And you are arguing - (imric) - (46) - Jan. 16, 2005, 03:03:01 PM EST

Mebbe you should answer his question - (jb4) - (45) - Jan. 17, 2005, 09:32:20 AM EST

<sigh> - (imric) - (44) - Jan. 17, 2005, 09:48:11 AM EST

Or even... - (Another Scott) - (13) - Jan. 17, 2005, 10:04:08 AM EST

Err, look at your stuff from a different angle. - (mmoffitt) - (12) - Jan. 17, 2005, 04:43:20 PM EST

A majority isn't all. - (Another Scott) - (11) - Jan. 17, 2005, 04:58:30 PM EST

Not a bad idea... - (jb4) - Jan. 17, 2005, 06:11:48 PM EST

How about a civics test? - (mmoffitt) - (9) - Jan. 18, 2005, 08:15:48 AM EST

Who writes the test? Who judges it? -NT - (Another Scott) - (6) - Jan. 18, 2005, 09:21:47 AM EST

moi? -NT - (Ashton) - (5) - Jan. 18, 2005, 05:15:57 PM EST

^^^^ I'd be comfortable with that. -NT - (mmoffitt) - (4) - Jan. 18, 2005, 06:40:24 PM EST

And when he passes on... - (inthane-chan) - (1) - Jan. 18, 2005, 06:41:16 PM EST

Me. Then, my kids. Then, ... - (mmoffitt) - Jan. 18, 2005, 06:45:15 PM EST

Of course you would - (Arkadiy) - (1) - Jan. 19, 2005, 10:26:13 AM EST

It should ;0) -NT - (mmoffitt) - Jan. 19, 2005, 10:42:41 AM EST

Civics test would be counterproductive! - (GBert) - Jan. 19, 2005, 11:36:08 AM EST

Consider yourself forgiven - (jb4) - (29) - Jan. 17, 2005, 01:24:56 PM EST

For the individual, or the whole? - (Simon_Jester) - (26) - Jan. 17, 2005, 01:51:42 PM EST

Nazi's best result at the polls were 38% - (Arkadiy) - (25) - Jan. 17, 2005, 02:45:16 PM EST

Cogent link. Thanks. -NT - (Another Scott) - Jan. 17, 2005, 02:58:47 PM EST

Hmmm -- Sound familiar? - (jb4) - (22) - Jan. 17, 2005, 06:06:09 PM EST

You're right, of course. - (mmoffitt) - (21) - Jan. 18, 2005, 08:19:12 AM EST

A much more civilized way of saying - (imric) - (20) - Jan. 18, 2005, 08:53:43 AM EST

Oh.. we *haven't* a 'hierarchy of privilege', then? -NT - (Ashton) - (19) - Jan. 18, 2005, 06:29:40 PM EST

Succinct. Love it. -NT - (mmoffitt) - (1) - Jan. 18, 2005, 06:43:52 PM EST

Not legislated. - (imric) - (16) - Jan. 18, 2005, 08:02:06 PM EST

Sure it is - (jake123) - (15) - Jan. 19, 2005, 09:45:55 AM EST

Care to elaborate? -NT - (Arkadiy) - (14) - Jan. 19, 2005, 10:27:07 AM EST

Yep - (jake123) - (13) - Jan. 19, 2005, 11:49:45 AM EST

How is that legislated? - (imric) - (11) - Jan. 19, 2005, 11:56:45 AM EST

You're kidding, right? - (mmoffitt) - (10) - Jan. 19, 2005, 12:05:33 PM EST

Don't bother... - (inthane-chan) - Jan. 19, 2005, 12:06:48 PM EST

Sure they are. - (imric) - (8) - Jan. 19, 2005, 12:11:44 PM EST

Well, that's not legislated - (Arkadiy) - Jan. 19, 2005, 01:26:02 PM EST

The acronym TPOTPS doesn't have quite the ring of, - (Ashton) - Jan. 18, 2005, 01:32:13 AM EST

Now THAT'S a question - (imric) - (1) - Jan. 17, 2005, 02:06:07 PM EST
