    Best and worst Nicholas Cage films?

    If you think Ghost Rider was the worst Nicolas Cage movie, then you haven't watched enough Nicolas Cage movies. :lol: I think my fav is probably Raising Arizona, although National Treasure was very good too.

    [RD] What motivates creationism?

    Partly. I think it is human nature to pursue knowledge, but to also try and explain that in which you are not knowledgeable. In this context it doesn't mean the bible isn't true, but our ability to grasp it/explain it is limited. For example, I certainly believe in a God that created all...

    Once America Elects Supreme Overlord Trump

    I'd really want to see how many that threatened to leave the USA actually do.

    Civfanatics NFL Keeper League Year 9

    well, kinda. We didn't get keepers and it was autodraft for most of us, but the league just wasn't deleted and is going forward regardless of who is participating and who isn't.

    Dishonest Journalists!

    Apparently news, like money, carries no provenance of it's source. It doesn't really matter where it comes from if it serves its purpose.

    Dakota Access Pipeline Protests

    If transportation cost savings weren't large enough to make that impact, we wouldn't be building pipelines. And again, OPEC isn't really acting as a group anymore - it's more like each man for himself lately. In that regard, it's certainly not controlling the market.

    Dakota Access Pipeline Protests

    Again, wrong. http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-oil-exports-idUSKCN0ZM1E5 US oil exports are the highest they've been in over 40 years, and OPECs failed attempt to hurt our production by driving market prices down has indeed had a huge effect on the current oil market, but our oil...

    NFL 2016 regular season

    Actually, that reason is he was initially considered as a possible wildcat package QB to begin with. When he started doing really well on returns, they decided to transition him to WR to take advantage of his open field running ability.

    Dakota Access Pipeline Protests

    OPEC doesn't set the price of oil. They set how much oil they will produce and add to the market. Lately, many of the member states of OPEC have ignored their own agreed production caps, and flooded the market for their own particular reasons. If OPECs own member states violate agreed upon...

    No..you're being disingenuous. Whether or not you think the price is 'accurate' is irrelevant. My point was that cheaper energy costs are a benefit to society at large. The points you mention here are actually pretty ambiguous at best to the actual context of the point I was making.

    Dakota Access Pipeline Protests

    'True cost'? Please. You know the context of my point, and it's accurate. You want refuse to accept my point by going all henny-penny, well, that's just being disingenuous. Besides, I would think any closet environmentalist would appreciate newer tech and better safety features for...

    I was just pointing out that the Pats have options at QB that maybe no one realized.

    Oh, boohoo. Fwiw, I've never denied global warming, but I don't have a lot of faith in mankinds ability to actually do anything meaningful to counteract it. We adapt very well, but prevention hasn't ever been one of our strong suits. But you keep on preaching. In fact, you should go preach...
