Blood

2007-04-05T02:49:49Z

Rustyjd07:

'''Blood''' is a fluid that transports [[oxygen]] from the [[lungs]] to body tissue and [[carbon dioxide]] from body tissue to the lungs. Blood also transports nourishment from digestion and hormones from glands to all areas of the body. Blood also conveys disease fighting subtances to the tissues and waste to the kidneys. Blood is thicker than water and has a slightly salty taste. An adults body usually has 10 pints of blood circulating around. Blood is composed of billions of living blood cells floating in a liquid called plasma. If you took a small sample of this blood and poured it into a test tube and then put it in a machine called a centrifuge, you would be able to see the layers of this blood. This machine spins the blood around so fast that it separates the [[red blood cells]], from the [[white blood cells]], from the [[platelets]]. The red blood cells sink to the bottom because they are the heavier, more solid parts, but the plasma remains at the top because it is lighter. Plasma is 95% water and the other 5% is made up of dissolved substances including salts.

[[Jehovah's Witnesses]] believe that [[blood transfusions]] are forbidden by God.

Abstinence

2007-04-05T02:05:07Z

Rustyjd07:

The word '''abstinence''' means refraining from indulging in an appetite.

In the 1800s and 1900s, the word "abstinence," used without other explanation, almost always meant abstinence from alcohol. The "abstinence movement," for example, led to the establishment of [[prohibition]]. ''Teetotaler'' mean someone who advocated "total abstinence," rather than just moderation.

Starting in about the 1990s, "abstinence" has been more commonly used in the context of abstinence from [[sexual]] intercourse, particularly in the United States in the context of [[sex]] education for adolescents. Thus, for example, we read in a 2002 White House policy statement:
:the goal of Federal policy should be to emphasize abstinence as the only certain way to avoid both unintended pregnancies and STDs.<ref>[http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2002/02/welfare-book-06.html WORKING TOWARD INDEPENDENCE

== Porn again ==

So no explanation of how opposing regulation of media (which is what opposition to pornography would necessarily require) is a liberal viewpoint, simply the statement that it is de facto the case without a lick of evidence to back it up. Marvelous. Your book deal with Regnery is a shoe in now sir.
--[[User:RexMundane|RexMundane]] 20:32, 4 April 2007 (EDT)

: Rex, do you accept the notion of "correlation"? The correlation between liberals and less regulation of porn is very high. This isn't opinion. This can be easily seen by voting records and court decisions. It can be shown scientifically as easily as, say, the correlation between smoking and lung cancer. --[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 21:39, 4 April 2007 (EDT)

== ...and about the math... ==

You say that Wikipedia is 6 times more liberal than the American public, and one of the statistics you cite gives the American public as being 18% liberal.

So... Wikipedia is 108% liberal then? I mean that is what you're saying by treating the numbers that way. Of course thats just silly little me for thinking that cant be right. Here I am, brain the size of a planet and it looks for all the world to me like you're twisting math around your middle finger to make numbers say something they self evidently can't.
--[[User:RexMundane|RexMundane]] 20:35, 4 April 2007 (EDT)

:Actually Wikipedia being 108% liberal may be estimating it on the low end. [[User:RobS|RobS]] 20:47, 4 April 2007 (EDT)

: Give [[User:Mtur/Critique of "Liberal Quotient"]] a read. Realize the flaws of a self selected survey. Realize the problems of multiple counts in that self selected survey. Realize the lack of identification on wikipedia (several conservative editors here who also have wiki accounts do not identify themselves as conservative for whatever reason). Realize that this discounts the majority of Americans who do not identify themselves as either conservative or liberal (the plurality is moderate). There are so many statistical errors in claiming six times, its not even funny. --[[User:Mtur|Mtur]] 20:51, 4 April 2007 (EDT)

::Those stats, Conservative 23% Liberal 68% Moderate 9% is entirely beleivable, and those Conservs are really closet conservatives, few willing to admit it openly or engage in controversial subjects.

::Wikipedia has its internal icons who are looked to for guidance in varrying fields of specialization. For as long as I've been involved in the project, there's been a desire from the highest levels to create a Conservaitve spokesperson, one widely viewed moreless as the Bill Buckley of Conservapedia wiki editors.

Crude oil

2007-04-05T01:37:57Z

Rustyjd07:

Oil is either dug up from the ground or separated from vegetables like [[olive | olives]]. Wars are often started from oil.[http://www.moles.org/ProjectUnderground/drillbits/5_10/3.html]

== Oil in the Bible ==

Oil appears over two hundred times in the Bible.

Oil, particularly olive oil, is used in drink offerings to God, but not in sin offerings.<ref>Genesis 28:18, Genesis 35:14, Leviticus 2, Leviticus 14, Numbers 7</ref>

Oil is used for anointing the priests of God by pouring it on their heads. This sanctifies them and makes them holy<ref>Exodus 29:2, 7, 21, Exodus 30:25, Leviticus 8</ref>

Oil is used for lighting lamps.<ref>Exodus 27:20</ref>

New kings of Israel were anointed with oil.<ref>I Samuel 10:1, I Kings 1:39</ref>

In a miracle, Elisha allowed a widow to fill all of her pots, and her neighbor's pots, with oil.<ref>II Kings 4</ref>

As the twenty-third Psalm says:
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

I suppose they're just like Buddists, Confuscians, Hindus, Jews, Christians, Jains, Pagans, etc. People almost never abandon their faith. You might not appreciate it if some Muslims tried to convince you that Jesus was a fraud and that you'd go to hell unless you converted to Islam. Why would they accept a Christian doing that to them? [[User:Czolgolz|Czolgolz]] 09:53, 3 April 2007 (EDT)

:Who says any one religion is the right one for everyone to follow?

[[User:Jrssr5|Jrssr5]] 10:26, 3 April 2007 (EDT)

I think something should be said to the fact that they still believe in the same God it's just called by a different name Allah.

Some of these comments do not hold up to what the Bible says. Jesus said "Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you."

== Shouldn't you convert to their religion? ==

Hah, I find this discussion amusing. It acknowledges that basically, your religious beliefs, if any, are inspired by what your parents and countrymen believe, yet there is still the tacit assumption that Christianity is the correct religion. Don't you ever wonder that, just possibly, if there is a God, it isn't the one you're worshipping, and you're in deep, deep trouble spiritually. There have been literally thousands of different religions and cults throughout history. Yours just happens to be popular at this point.

Personally, if there has to be a God, or pantheon of Gods, I'm banking on the Norse. The whole thing has the ring of revealed truth to me, it's definitely how Gods would behave if they existed. --[[User:Abrown|Abrown]] 22:52, 3 April 2007 (EDT)

'''Ultimate Frisbee''' is a [[sport]], which is played primarily with a [[Frisbee]].

Unlike most team sports, Ultimate is self-refereed. The rules of play states: "Flying disc sports have traditionally relied upon a spirit of sportsmanship which places the responsibility of fair play on the players themselves. Highly competitive and committed play is encouraged, but never at the expense of the bond of mutual respect between players, adherence to the agreed upon rules of any event, nor the basic enjoyment of play. Protection of these vital elements serves to eliminate adverse conduct from the playing field. The responsibility for the maintenance of this spirit rests on each player's shoulders."<ref>[http://www.wfdf.org/index.php?page=rules/spirit.htm]WFDF: Spirit of the Game</ref>

During his time in office he never had a large majority and struggled to get contentious legislation passed. Even so his legacy includes the [[Open University]] and the first steps towards the United Kingdom's membership of the [[EEC]]. He also successfully kept the UK out of the war in [[Vietnam]].

The mainstream is by definition that branch of an organization which is most vocal and controls the policies of the organization. Thus we refer to the mainstream media as the most visible outlet of journalism, with the most access to the policy makers. The non-violent branch of Islam may be the numerical majority, but in terms of influence they are of no consequence, because they either fear or choose not to speak out.
