Will this happen when the moon is in the 7th house and Jupiter aligns with Mars?

In the year 2555

Please remember us when you are there to witness it.

I would consider keeping someone enslaved to be enslaving them. I don't think that's at all inaccurate.

That's playing semantic games.

No, playing semantic games is focusing on the phrase "entire race" when it has a broad range of possible meanings, a number of which could be considered accurate, and using the meaning that conforms with your worldview.

:huh:  "Entire race" was not my phrase.  It was Chris Silber's.  Take it up with him.

When you come up with an "accurate" definition of "entire race" that fits this context, feel free to share.

In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

:lol: No, you can't have my point. It's your argument that needs an accurate definition of "entire race", not mine. You're the one who's choosing to focus on that phrase.

Jeff Gillooly had a baton; you may be onto something.  :hmm:

That one guy folded his nazi flag into a very tiny little square... should have ironed it before pulling it out.

:lol:  No, you cannot have my point, either.  I am making no argument about the "entire race" that is any different than that made by Chris Silber.  Take it up with him if you have a problem with the term.  I think it is absurd, but your mileage may vary.

Pretty sure it's just out of the shipping packet from China.

Or, I mean, I guess that's how they fold them when shipped :ph34r:

While "race" may not be a precise term, "entire" does have a specific meaning.  Grumbler and I may have focused on the term, but we weren't the ones who used it to start with.
