Default The most liberal person in the history of civilization:

Before I tell you who he is, I will provide several quotes from him, so you can guess.

"Don't criticize people, and you will not be criticized. For you will be judged by the way you criticize others, and the measure you give will be the measure you receive."

"Ask and it will be given to you. Search and you will find. Knock and the door will be opened for you. The one who asks will always receive; the one who is searching will always find, and the door is opened to the man who knocks."

"Treat other people exactly as you would like to be treated by them - this is the essence of all true religion."

"But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you."

"And when thou pray, thou shall not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou pray, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret."

"Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God."

As you can see, these are all very liberally-biased quotes. Some neocons are probably already getting pissed by reading such liberal blasphemy! Can you guess who made all of these progressive remarks?

I personally really, really like this one!!!

I hope he's wrong there, or I'm going straight to hell!

Not that I'm very rich by S.F. Bay Area standards, but my investments in both stock and property (a decent house in S.F. costs about 700k or more these days) puts me in the top 1 percent in the world.

It's ironic that the most liberal city is also one of the richest ^_^ In fact, if you look at all the business centers in the U.S. (NY, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Boston, etc...), they are all predominately liberal. Since there are no greatly successful conservative cities, we know how far a conservative society can go (the best a close-minded society can do is stay rural and isolated from global reatlities).

Imagine, if we had no liberals like Martin Luther Kind Jr., Abraham Lincoln and Jesus, we'd still be living in the stone ages both mentally and technologically.

He was of course refering to the Camelus Dromedarius or Arabian Camel with one hump, Camelus Bactrianus or Eastern Asian Camels with two humps would be harder, he did not forsee the Oligarchs.

Two humps are better than one!

"If any man comes to me, and hates not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple."



"I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."



"Do you think I have come to give peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division."



"Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you."



Whoever divorces his wife and marries another, commits adultery against her; and if she divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery.

Quotes you left out:

"Yea verily - a fetus is an abomination - kill it - quickly."

"Wouldst thou allow unpopular utterances at places of learning? Nay - best to expell the speaker."

"Render unto Ceasar what is Ceasar's, and everything is Ceasar's".

"Skin color is all - Ceasar must allocate all based on skin color."

"Doth a man dare utter a prayer in the buildings of Ceasar? Warn him greatly that Ceasar alone shall decide where he is to pray."

It would be ironic if it were even remotely true. Liberal cities are, not coincidentally, the most crime ridden cities on the planet. Chicago, New Orleans, Detroit, SF...all high crime and all very liberal. Of course NYC was once on that list (thanks to the liberal leadership) and then a conservative came in and changed it almost overnight. Thanks to the conservative the city is now liveable. Unlike the drug addled, homeless mess the liberals have turned SFO into. A once nice city filled with people sleeping on streets.

Now on to your "there are no conservative cities" lie. Salt Lake City (beautiful, successful, and low crime), Boise, San Diego, Phoenix, Oklahoma City, Tampa Bay, and many others come to mind. Here is a list of others:

http://votingresearch.org/USAstudy.pdf

Now what sticks out on that list? Hmmmm. On the conservative side we have Provo, Colorado Springs, Hialeah, Simi Valley, Clearwater...

On the liberal side we have Detroit, Gary, DC, Oakland, Inglewood, Newark, Flint, Hartford...

Gee, if people could choose I wonder which of those lists of places to live would be preferred?

So one list contains beautiful cities with low crime and low poverty. And one list contains crime ridden cesspools that no one who can afford to desires to live in. In fact you could take the highest crime cities list and pretty much duplicate it with the most liberal cities in the country list. A conservative country would be clean, low crime and ideal. Whereas a liberal one would be like SFO; a high crime, high poverty mess filled with drug addicts.

JMS gets another English lesson:

Quote:
there is no "mostly unique;" thats like saying "sometimes always," its an oxymoron - its either one or the other.


The result:
Quote:
By the mid-19th century unique had developed a wider meaning, “not typical, unusual,” and it is in this wider sense that it is compared. The comparison of so-called absolutes in senses that are not absolute is standard in all varieties of speech and writing.
