After that it took a few attempts to as I call it "Invoke my presence" and would appear.

M-mann My Conscience I don't want to generalize communism incorrectly. This is my take on it (If I am wrong call me on it). Each communist city works independently. They have their own doctors, their own producers of homes, etc. There is no need for many home builders. Because of the inefficiency for the town having many home builders without the competition, they only have one. Having many producers is inefficiency for the town. They only need one producer of a product that works for everyone. Now, where do the technological advances come in? Why "waist" time to make technological advances for your town when you already have suitable working products? I am just afraid that we will end up like Australia, which is 50 years behind in technology. Actually... can you explain how you view how each town will work? Ehhh....... The competition isn't so much of a problem. In fact I would theorize most of us shouldn't care. In fact greed probably wouldn't bother us too much either in some instances. Just as long as you have cooperation. In any rate the goal of the producers or any such thing is a surplus, It allows for easier distrbution and solves the problem of being under-supplied. So the Technological gaisn woudl be purely so effieceny is increased and therefore prodcution is increased. I imagine there would be a quota they would liek to meet, but I don't think there would be a problem in exceeding it. I still don't see how it would be applied. It just doesn't seem like it would work. Isn't my computer efficient enough? Why develop a better computer, waist man-power that could be applied to the communist town, and waist materials when you have a efficient computer? Why develop a different tasting flavor of Coca-Cola when the normal one is efficient enough?

SoundDoctrine Elf Lord Chiewn SoundDoctrine I'll take this one. But I should put up a few sides notes first. I don't believe that Jesus is exactly the same as YHWH, and I don't believe that Jesus is YHWH playing a different role (I'm not Oneness). I believe in the Trinity, that is, Jesus, YHWH, and the Holy Spirit are three distinct personas united in their deity. I believe that Jesus is deity. I believe that one cannot prove that Jesus is not deity based on the Bible. The one problem we may run into on this subject has to do with the question of divinity. What is the operating definition? Shoot. That's a good question. I'm thinking of an entity which is above both humans and angels, able to go against logic, such as being human and deity at the same time, or being able to do what some would consider impossible, such as raising the dead or ascending into heaven, and an entity which is a deity because said entity was begotten of God, or another deity, being that entity is called,"the only begotten Son of God". Is that good enough, or do I need to go further? I think further might be necessary. sweatdrop As it is, there's pretty much jack I can reasonably debate you on. Marshal67 Were you around for my old thread on this? I forgot who ripped into and who dd not. If you weren't there before for it, I will take you on this just for fun. wink I think I may have missed it. Sounds like fun to me.

Umm...umm...upon thinking about it for awhile, I can't really think of anything else that would make Jesus divine. What's your personal definition for divinity?

M-mann I challenge anyone to an argument about Communism. Wherever, whenever. I totally would want to, but I know I'd get my a** handed to me. As much as I am against communism, I'm not strong enough for the whole Capitalism thing to really defend it. But I would love to see someone argue Communism. Find someone and get the showdown going.

If anyone is willing, anyone wanna debate smoking? A lot of people are anti-smoking, and I'm the one diving into nicotine.

Oh, goodness. Are you calling me god to sweeten me up, or are ya just hoping I won't divinely punish you? Bwahaha. No, seriously, people call me that? People besides myself? If so... that'd make you, like, a co-deity. We're all departmental and stuff, it seems. Anyways, best argument I ever had about Communism was at 1 in the morning in the guy's bathroom at my school. Four of us, for two hours, standing there, debating. 3 against 1. All of us were Communist. The one was supremely good at debating and a supreme Communist/Socialist (I forget if he's just middle ground or not). He was a crazy good Devil's Advocate. Best smackdown I gave to someone about Communism. 12th grade, Government class. Kid was saying, "Okay, here's an analogy. [Note: he was talking about our government verses Communism. Well, he didn't specifically mention Communism, but I think I did, talking about what should be done in Iraq with the new government thing, and he hates Commies... Anyways, to the story!] We've got an airplane of model A that has not crashed in only one out of ten test flights. Model B has flown and landed every test flight, ten out of ten times. Which plane would you rather have?" I said, "Your analogy isn't that good. You're forgetting about the pilots." And the class went "DAAAAAYUM."
