Then it would be pointless in me giving a response wouldn't it? A closed mind is a happy mind.

No, it wouldn't be pointless. It would be amusing to see what sort of tortured logic you'd use to try to defend a belief that placed a foriegner on the same level as a countryman.

The logic of the bible perhaps ? It says that all men are created equal, doesn't it ? That means that all lifes are equally important as far as i can tell.

Probably not difficult to amuse you. Would you rather see an American mass murderer living on the other side of the country live than for me to live?

Is every thing black and white in the simple world in which you live? Or is there ever any grey?

[/QUOTE]No it doesn't say that per say, it clearly implies that, (ie:Christ died for all, There is neither Jew nor Greek, free or slave.)so your conculsion would be accurate. [img]smile.gif[/img] I believe it is the Gettysburg address, or the emancipation(sp?) proclomation, anyway it was ole Honest Abe that declared "all men are created equal." My Rhinosoreass...er...Hipotomisses...er...Elephantmi uos...er.. big grey-brown animal memory ain't what it used to be.

[/QUOTE]Ah...yes of course, the moment i posted that message i knew something wasn't right. But since i didn't know exactly what it was i figured to wait until someone would correct me. I read the bible, but that was ages ago, i've never read the emancipation proclamation, and as they put it in Southpark... i don't listen to hiphop.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. --That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

It's actually a good read -- a treatise justifying rebellion.

Well Lordy Lordy Lordy, mark this day down in your journals, it was the Dec. of Indy. Thanks T.L. maybe that memory is from a small fury creature

[Timber Loftis]

I never said men were not created equal, I just said I prefer to see the ones "on my team" live, if I have to choose. Of course other factual considerations, such as the murderer pointed out by Esteemed Mr. Pastry, must be taken into consideration.

Is every thing black and white in the simple world in which you live? Or is there ever any grey? [/QUOTE]Yes. I do believe that the world is VASTLY more black and white. Far, far too many people think that too much of the world is one giant mass of grey. IMHO, they hold this opinion for one reason only. To cover up for their illegal and/immoral acts, rather than attempt to be good and morally upright people. They do not want to be held accountable or responsible for their own immorality. Therefore, they try to completely muddy the waters with this morass of moral relativistic grayness.
