I can't imagine the type of people who think this shit is convincing or right. I know there's far, far worse out there especially stuff which is arguing in bad faith, but I'm almost putting them in the same category now. --- http://www.lukesurl.com/comics/2010-02-24-determinism.png <cite>berlyman101 posted [p:934506615] in The opinio...
