Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
- -- The Buddha
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

Yes. Just as I would allow folks to call Trump a pedophile. The issue was calling out (you) folks that are on the board. It is not political party that is the issue, it is what happens to the board if you allow folks to accuse each other of pedophilia. I have seen it, it will not happen here again. If Joe Biden was a member I would not allow folks here to call him a pedophile...

This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.
Sure it can. Science can identify and quantify maturity in a person. We use tests to naturalize citizens. Require all of those seeking citizenship to pass a battery of tests, both knowledge and mental fitness, starting at age 21. If a person doesn't pass, they get one chance a year on their birthday to try again.
We'd see news reports of 55 year olds "earning their citizenship" and voting.

Hunter seems to be very Trumpian. I thought rightys gave that stuff up. They had to throw all that out when they accepted the Access Hollywood tape and his paying off hookers to run for president. Have they given this election up and now feel justified in using sexual affairs for political reasons? Hunter is not even running for president. This whole thing is not logical.
