That sounds like Rudy’s point.
You have to learn to use sarcasm tags! :-) You might scare some people! ;-)
Heh heh heh.
(Sarcasm tags spoil the fun)
Its your obsession not mine! Enjoy yourself!
You are just plain evil! ;-) I like it! LOL!
Yup. Plain Evil. Like Guiliani.
Hahahahahahahahahahaha.
What an arrogant jerk. Now he tells folks how they should believe?
Yup!
I heard Glenn Beck interview Giuliani this morning, talking about guns, taxes, health care and the free market.
Beck was impressed.
So was I.
Did he get to talk about education?
Maybe he meant truly "intelligent" people always strive to keep an open mind.
Or, maybe he meant an evangelist should maintain an appearance of open-mindedness to avoid appearing arrogant.
I really don't know what he meant. But, if it's either of the above, I'd disagree with him.
So this statement by Rudy really means nothing.
Talk is cheap.
Rudy's past actions speak volumes. But I guess we're supposed to not pay attention to what a politician has done in the past, just what he says he's gonna do as he seeks a higher office.
Really? Thanks for the info. Glad to hear it!
But I don't think that those who have firm beliefs are somehow inferior. We simply have to wrestle with the great questions of the world. So I find Rudy's line arrogant, even if I might share some of his doubts.
Did Beck say he was impressed? Or was that your interpretation of what you believed Beck was thinking?
How can you argue with this statement?
“In my humble opinion — and this is meant as an observation, not a challenge — that disdain emerges from an almost subconscious conclusion that to believe in God too fervently betrays a certain intellectual infirmity.””
Beck said that if they weren’t both straight guys against gay marriage he’d kiss Rudy in gratitude for his common sense.
That good enough for you?
***...”The Catholic religion provides me the structure in which to ask these questions,” the Mayor said. “The church has built the road that allows my intellect to traverse to the outer reaches of what is comprehensible and, at that point, the church offers a leap of faith to carry me where my intellect cannot go. For me, being a Catholic is not limiting but liberating.”....***
