TK replied to Charles Corey Stewart's discussion Band of Brothers
"I saw the whole series of The Pacific done by the same people. If it's anything like The Pacific, I'd highly recommend it. Not because it comes from a non religious stance, but for what such a shitty thing war is, and why we…"
TK replied to Hugh Kramer's discussion Bill O'Reilly & Deepak Chopra claim they "kicked Richard Dawkins' ass"
"Yeah, no one wants the truth anymore, they want to see opinion rudely spouted by other talking heads. I try and stay away from faux news, but will listen to it a bit if I'm in the mood for some comedy or want to scream at someone."
TK replied to Jedi Wanderer's discussion Debt and Unemployment
"You seriously think the government speaks for every person in this country and could come up with policies that benefited every person in this country? Or do you think that getting enough people together enables you to steal from the better…"
TK replied to Jedi Wanderer's discussion Debt and Unemployment
"First, I'd agree with you that it's complete and utter bullshit that all of the banks and financial institutions got bailed out. However, that is what you get when you look to the government for a solution to a problem, that they…"
TK replied to Jedi Wanderer's discussion Debt and Unemployment
"How about we be responsible, and pay off our debt? I'm about to be debt free after working my ass off for two years, and I'm not going to screw anyone in the process. Oh that's right, that'd entail too much personal…"
TK replied to Park Bierbower's discussion Occupy Wallstreet?
"You're against the use of force, but support communism? Are you serious? How exactly would we take away all private property and enforce no private property without the application of government force?"
TK replied to Park Bierbower's discussion Occupy Wallstreet?
"Oh come on man. Desecrating a flag is not anti american and you know it. Our constitutions specifically allows for this form of protected political speech. I think wanting to curtail freedom of speech that might offend you is the…"
TK replied to Park Bierbower's discussion Occupy Wallstreet?
"That would be me, without the e. Government sure is propping up a failing industry, that wouldn't have gotten so large except for government. If the issue is "too big to fail" tell me why we didn't enforce monopoly…"

"Be prepared for a shit storm if you're that high up in the church there, especially if it's an overly fundamentalist one. I assume you plan to quit attending the church? I wish you luck."
TK replied to Sassan K.'s discussion What should I have done?
"I'd leave it alone unless it was your property they were fucking with. You'd be legally, not morally, in the wrong if a confrontation escalated I'd imagine. Plus you risk your safety. Then again, it's your call…"

"Wow....."
TK replied to Park Bierbower's discussion Occupy Wallstreet?

TK replied to Hiram's discussion Alabama City to Let Non-Violent Criminals Choose Jail or…Weekly Church Attendance
"Yep. That's all AA or NA really is. You're replacing your addiction to whatever your drug of choice is with religion. If it works for you, more power to you, but don't kid yourself about it."

Steve said… Hey Travis,
I was just reading your comments on the thread concerning socialism. I'll say this. You got guts. I know from experience that economically conservative or libertarian views are about as welcome hear as someone trying to promote religion. It's as if since you are atheist you must also automatically be liberal.
Well I for one am not and I commend you for defending your point of view without digressing to slurs like your enlightened respondents. Keep up the good fight for rational discourse.
