500 Million people will lose their jobs regardless of whether things are going well or bad. She's not saying how many of them will find a new job quickly. 😉

Why, yes, He is; but Jesus also is the savior of the world, and He is the only philosopher who was always right, and He never told a lie. I presume that Friedrich Nietzsche is a fovorite of yours?

How would you know these two things?
Can you be certain that he NEVER told a lie EVEN as a very young child?
Can you be certain that he NEVER had any misconceptions about the world EVEN as a very young child?

If you are going to believe by faith that Jesus was the son of God, what exactly is fantastic about the notion that he may have been perfect from the time he was born???

Originally posted by Dace AceI think it is fair to say that she is not the sharpest tack. In fact, she is one of Obama's biggest liabilities. I hope he sees that.
Nancy Pelosi has to be the stupidest person on the planet! Here she is trying to set off fear amoung the public, in order to get the pay-off money to those that got Obama into the Whitehouse.
