There were all these bums like Quick Tillis, Tubbs, Bonecrusher Smith, Ruddock. Kind of like it is now.

Tyson was the biggest thing since Pac Man. I remember watching a fight of his before I really knew who he was. I forget who he was fighting, but it started out like any fight. A bit of moving around, some jabs, a clinch, a couple of connects. Okay, whatever... Then the other guy just went down like a piece of the ceiling fell on his head!

I told my father that he had to see Tyson. I told him that it's like watching any fight, but with Tyson, after he hits the other guy a few times, they just go down.

Then we watched Mike vs Spinks and Carl the Truth Williams. My father asked me back then who I thought would win a fight between Ali and Tyson. I said Tyson for a couple reasons.

One, I hadn't seen Ali fight as I was just a little too young. Two, I figured that no one could stand against Tyson's power.

When Tyson lost to Douglass, I thought it was the end of the world. I was sure it was a fluke. When Tyson got out of jail, I thought he could take Holyfield and Bowe one after another on the same night, no problem.

I was shocked to death when Holyfield emerged the winner. Couldn't believe it. Thought it was because Tyson didn't train enough since getting out of jail. I put my money on Tyson on their rematch and was sorely disappointed with the way it ended.

Definitely, 100% a prime Mike Tyson's most difficult opponent.

As for being naive in regards to Ali then I can relate to that. I've never ever disputed his greatness as a boxer <and> a human being though, I just thought Tyson edged it until I locked myself in my place for a week watching all his fights on repeat. #GOAT

I've just had such a wonderful day that I can't quite believe it given how it started. Revenge is sooooo sweet and when you can't physically get your hands on someone you have to resort to what I've done, but this day is up there with laying a hot blonde after a hot bath ! On my father's life you'll all understand very soon 😂 😂 😂

You called it! And just minutes later, it happened exactly as you said.

<Spoogy> too. I don't care how many papers he wrote. Some people have mastered the art of faking it till the make it, even if they never make it.

They fake their way through college. They fake their way into a cushy job. They fake their way year after year and just fake it.

After all, your posts are, if nothing else, interesting. That's why so few put you on ignore, and so many reply to you (even if indirectly, as <zanzi> does so often)

Heck, I learned something from you just today. The Moral Argument. The way your opponents wept and gnashed teeth, one would have thought the Moral Argument was too difficult to even understand, let alone reply to.

In an effort to be more concise, I am limiting myself to three posts a day. Each post can have no more than one paragraph of up to five sentences.>

Translation:

Liberals are ignorant, cowardly, boring, immature. I need “something” to make conversing with them interesting/challenging.

Likewise but I'm having another 5-6 weeks away from football. I had a peep the other week and saw Harry Kane playing like Van Basten! I hate that even though he's English because as soon as he puts on an England shirt it's like he plays for Telford not Tottenham. It's disheartening and they make 150k per week and embarrass our country at major tournaments and in Kane's case not just on the pitch. He asked a referee at half time against Iceland in the 2016 Euro's..

"If we don't win this game are we eliminated!!?!".

I wouldn't pick one single player who played against Iceland and/or Wales last summer <ever again> for England. Without going into a massive rant I'm just disappointed and hurt that our players don't care about their country like they do their clubs and certainly don't play nowhere near as well. Time to start with the under 21's... You'll see passion and hunger from those lads because they <don't> get 150k a week just yet, let's try something else and until then I'm boycotting the EPL. My team is in the 1st division anyways I don't care about Man Utd or Chelsea!! England and Bradford City. That's it!

PS. I'll reopen my forum because I'm always available for praising the GOAT.. Messi! I can talk about god all day so feel free to drop by and post <exactly> how good you think the Messiah is, lol.

Atheists are atheists not because they know something we don't, but because they want to be. It's an ego driven position take.

I've noticed that most atheists are extremely shallow in the understanding and familiarity with the arguments surrounding atheism and theism. Even well known professors will sometimes trot out superficial throwaway lines like "you can't prove a negative" or they think that atheism carries no burden of proof. It's amazing.

Now that it's getting out that atheism makes a positive claim in the proposition "God does not exist", and atheists can't hide behind juvenile nonsense like, "Atheism isn't a belief. It's simply a lack of a belief", we are finding less and less people who are willing to commit to this proposition.

Even take a look at the <rogoff> page. There were atheists all around a few years back. I was watching and reading their superficial remarks with amusement. Now, after taking them to task for 4 years (longer?) there is no one that is willing to commit to the position of atheism. Instead, they have moved way over to the right, finding themselves comfortable with agnosticism.

Of course, there are some angry atheist nerds that don't want to give the other side any satisfaction, so they move to the right, to agnosticism, but try to insist on keeping the label atheism! Now the atheists have gotten together and they are trying to pretend that the definition of the term "atheism" is suddenly broadened to include agnosticism.

But the essence of a word is something you can't get away from, like "marriage". It has an essence and we both know what that is and is not.

Anyway, this move to agnosticism is a big deal. They have to be okay with the proposition, "It is possible that God exists" and that is a huge concession for a former atheist. Huge. Then it's interesting to ask why they reject atheism now. Lots of fun there.

So the atheist thinks he finds peace in agnosticism, since he carries no burden of proof. The agnostic declares his ignorance and ignorance doesn't shoulder a burden of proof. But it's not safe here either for the agnostic. There is an argument here, given first by Anselm and later, in the 1960s refined by Alvin Plantinga, called the Ontological Argument. The argument aims to show that if it is even possible that God exists, then he must exist.

Mark, it isn't about difference of opinion. The problem with your political posts is that they lack thoughtful analysis. It is just all personal attacks and hate from you.

Everyone gets that you don't like Trump. OK, now can you move on from that or is it just going to be 4 or 8 years of you telling us the same thing over and over, and then writing "lool"?

I don't even know what "lool" means. Is it supposed to be "laugh out loud"? What does the second "o" even mean?

Plus often your posts are barely even structured like a sentence. It's just word salad or stream of consciousness.

I'd pay money to see you tangle with Nisjesram.>
