Slavery also used to be defended as inevitable... - (ben_tilly) - (9) - Sept. 30, 2005, 06:30:49 PM EDT

Where did you see me defending it? - (drewk) - (8) - Sept. 30, 2005, 09:25:07 PM EDT

"defended" might be the wrong word - (ben_tilly) - (7) - Sept. 30, 2005, 10:01:55 PM EDT

I may have noticed another aspect - (Ashton) - Sept. 30, 2005, 11:05:15 PM EDT

You should read him in his posts. - (mmoffitt) - (1) - Sept. 30, 2005, 03:49:39 PM EDT

Because it is - (drewk) - Sept. 30, 2005, 05:13:10 PM EDT

Speaking of handwaving... - (ben_tilly) - (8) - Sept. 30, 2005, 03:58:55 PM EDT

What about this... - (Another Scott) - (3) - Sept. 30, 2005, 04:29:39 PM EDT

What does "permanent" mean to you? - (ben_tilly) - (2) - Sept. 30, 2005, 06:19:00 PM EDT

Briefly... - (Another Scott) - (1) - Sept. 30, 2005, 07:32:01 PM EDT

Then we differ on what permanently means - (ben_tilly) - Sept. 30, 2005, 08:16:30 PM EDT

I would then argue for frenco canadians to hold the place - (boxley) - (3) - Oct. 1, 2005, 09:56:43 AM EDT

Not comparable - (ben_tilly) - (2) - Oct. 1, 2005, 11:58:05 AM EDT

You're right, but for the wrong reason - (drewk) - (12) - Sept. 29, 2005, 05:10:58 PM EDT

Superbly stated reason why - - (Ashton) - Sept. 29, 2005, 05:50:47 PM EDT

A slightly different view. - (Another Scott) - (10) - Sept. 29, 2005, 06:10:03 PM EDT

Both your views are 'right' IMO - (Ashton) - Sept. 29, 2005, 06:58:00 PM EDT

I think you're misunderstanding his point - (drewk) - (8) - Sept. 29, 2005, 07:45:25 PM EDT

Bingo - (bepatient) - (7) - Oct. 1, 2005, 04:37:39 AM EDT

I would suspect both - (JayMehaffey) - (4) - Sept. 29, 2005, 10:18:00 PM EDT

No, he is not "literally" saying what you claim he is - (ben_tilly) - (3) - Sept. 29, 2005, 10:47:15 PM EDT

No argument with your qualified restatement, except - - (Ashton) - (2) - Sept. 29, 2005, 11:04:17 PM EDT

You don't understand. Gambling is a Virtue. :-) -NT - (Another Scott) - (1) - Sept. 29, 2005, 11:08:37 PM EDT
