   DaveICURN replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in Talk Politics

   Yes, you do. You stand so high above everyone else that all you can do is gaze at everyone else and their inequity. If you are without flaw, then you have nothing to learn. You speed toward your own evolutionary end. So if I understand...

   DaveICURN replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in Talk Politics

   Though the article does list some historical people and their writings, it merely paints their ideals as the foundation of todays conservatives. I don't believe that we should be coining William F. Buckley as the "Patron Saint". I think this does a d...

    DaveICURN replied to jive turkey's topic in COVID

    So, if I understand your position, you educate that the real risk of COVID infection (death or long haul) is worse than the unknown risk of long term side effects? Not trying to misrepresent your point. Just to clarify. So how can we...

    So, If I may, How do you address the concern on the lack of known long term side effects? I feel like I have no good answer for my family/patients because of this official position. I will pose the same question I did to Smiling. How do you ...

    DaveICURN replied to jive turkey's topic in COVID

    Well I did not assert the argument, but I am trying to play the devils advocate so I will assist to a degree, "As of April 20, the CDC has indeed reported a total of 7,157 cases of COVID-19 among fully vaccinated people and 88 deaths." http...

    DaveICURN replied to jive turkey's topic in COVID

    Eh, this article has a starting argument that I'm not sure tracks; "What is a right? A right is a justified claim on others. For example, if I have a right to freedom, then I have a justified claim to be left alone by others. Turned around, I ca...
