I am not a Carson fan. Not remotely. But here, it is you who sounds intellectually challenged. "Existential" and "existentialism" mean two different things.

adjective
of or relating to existence.
PHILOSOPHY

LOGIC

Ah yes, I am the one who is so profoundly challenged. Obviously they mean totally DIFFERENT things and have NOTHING to do with each other.

LMAO! Thanks for playing, tho.

Kind of like the 'GUN CONTROL NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" posts that appear immediately after any shooting? (Well, except for those that occur in predominately black areas, of course.)

How can you be so sure that none of the refugees are actually members of ISIS? You cannot. If it turns out. That even one of the perpetrators came in with refugees, they will all be expelled from every country in Europe.

I'm guessing he means the threat of our times,a threat to all that has meaning, or most straightforwardly a threat to our existence.

That's the new left line. It completely ignores that ISIS stated it planned to pretend to be Syrian refugees....

Trump's tweet was from Jan - the Charlie Hebdo attacks. The french ambassador dug it out and posted his reply tonight? Weird.


Why does it matter when the Donald's Tweet was? Was the comment any LESS repugnant in a different context?

No. It wasn't.

Here's hoping the Donald is stricken by a fatal heart attack tonight. The world would be better off if he just dropped dead.

It will be interesting to see how the killers entered the country. What exactly has been France's contribution to fighting ISIS or should I say ISIL, can't keep that straight.

The problem is, is they WANT death. Kill one, and 15 want to take his place.

The Donald will deport each and every one of them.

Maybe if the people of Paris had requested a safe space.
