Biden urges faith leaders to pressure lawmakers on background checksBy Adam Aigner-Treworgy, CNN (CNN) – During a more than two-hour meeting at the White House on Monday, Vice President Joe Biden asked leaders from across the faith community to keep up pressure on lawmakers to support compromise background check legislation even as Congress begins to shift its focus to immigration reform, according to several attendees who spoke to CNN. Biden urged the roughly 20 faith leaders in attendance not to be discouraged by recent legislative failures, and instead assured them that the White House had not given up. "Even though he suffered a defeat, he didn't sound defeated," said pastor Michael McBride of the PICO National Network. "And we need that kind of hope from the bully pulpit of the White House." In the run-up to last month's Senate vote, religious organizations from across the denominational spectrum pressured members of Congress to vote for background check legislation. Without mentioning the names of any lawmakers, Biden acknowledged the effectiveness of such lobbying efforts and asked those in attendance to continue to target those whose opinions can be swayed.

Monkey Math: Baboons Show Brain's Ability to Understand Numbers ..........E = mc2..............(U-Pb) numbers do not lie !
May 3, 2013 — Opposing thumbs, expressive faces, complex social systems: it's hard to miss the similarities between apes and humans. Now a new study with a troop of zoo baboons and lots of peanuts shows that a less obvious trait – the ability to understand numbers – also is shared by humans and their primate cousins.

Oldest? New 'Bone-Head' Dinosaur Hints at Higher Diversity of Small Dinosaurs
May 7, 2013 — Scientists have named a new species of bone-headed dinosaur (pachycephalosaur) from Alberta, Canada. Acrotholus audeti (Ack-RHO-tho-LUS) was identified from both recently discovered and historically collected fossils. Approximately six feet long and weighing about 40 kilograms in life, the newly identified plant-eating dinosaur represents the oldest bone-headed dinosaur in North America, and possibly the world.

Oops..............will........
Prayer does not; you are such a LIAR. You have NO proof it changes anything! A great example of prayer proven not to work is the Christians in jail because prayer didn't work and their children died. For example: Susan Grady, who relied on prayer to heal her son. Nine-year-old Aaron Grady died and Susan Grady was arrested.
An article in the Journal of Pediatrics examined the deaths of 172 children from families who relied upon faith healing from 1975 to 1995. They concluded that four out of five ill children, who died under the care of faith healers or being left to prayer only, would most likely have survived if they had received medical care.
The statistical studies from the nineteenth century and the three CCU studies on prayer are quite consistent with the fact that humanity is wasting a huge amount of time on a procedure that simply doesn’t work. Nonetheless, faith in prayer is so pervasive and deeply rooted, you can be sure believers will continue to devise future studies in a desperate effort to confirm their beliefs!
"Atheism is not healthy for children and other living things"
That's why the data, has shown that atheists have happier and healthier lives than conservative Christians. Your post is built on a lie!
"Jimmy G.
Hey, "A conversation" (lamenamebtw)
Atheism is a lack of a belief. It has ZERO to do with anything else, like abortion or your inability to realize how stupid you sound."
it is a belief, bucko
"Bucko"? Do you think that makes you sound butch?
Atheism is a default objective position on the subject of theism.
.
A baby is born without any religious beliefs in a tabula rasa state of mind (not completely blank but blank where theism is concerned) that is the level of belief in anything at all, including superbeings, is zero to a newborn baby.
.
In LOGIC, it is a starting position, a default position, to have no conclusions until data has been processed to the point where a conclusion is possible..
.
In having zero evidence for a god, the default position remains a lack of a conclusion, a lack of a belief, because no evidence has yet been presented.
.
Again, atheism is a lack of a position on the question of theism.
There is no conclusion drawn because there is no evidence upon which to base a conclusion.
There is no conclusion POSSIBLE without any data.
.
The question should never arise, but we are surrounded by crazy people, so the question does arise: Do we have a conclusion? What is our answer? We are atheist because no evidence has appeared.
We don't "believe" no evidence has appeared, we KNOW it. We KNOW there is nothing to support the idea of a god whatsoever.
There is no doctrine to atheism. There is no baseless conclusion (belief) about there being no gods because it is the insistence upon having a basis upon which to draw a conclusion that leads back to the default position.
It is not a religion. It is not a philosophical position. It is a lack of one.
If there was a god there would be evidence and it would be testable, examinable, viewable, hearable, whateverable.
There is NOTHING.
.
In fact, there is just the opposite: The COUNTERINDICATIONS that any gods exist. Religion is fraud and brainwashing.
That is a fact. It is provable. It is testable. We have evidence there is no god. It is Chad. Chad is proof there is no god. lol
Tis a belief no god exists, girls
i feel sorry 4 these imbeciles.

Reality used a term I enjoy seeing in print
Pro Abortion, as a pejorative for Pro Choice.
Sad really, because some of us are actually Pro Abortion, not merely Pro Choice.
We breed too much, we let the wrong people breed, and we discourage people who really shouldn't be bearing young from aborting.
Why? It certainly isn't as if we collectively will support these children when they aren't aborted. We wont fund health care or education or even the basic needs.
Then we wonder why our prisons over run, and our culture declines!!
Bizarre really, because we all know deep down inside that if it were not for abortions in the past the US would ALREADY be a third world slum.
If you have any doubts at all, do us all a favor and abort.
Well aren't you just the sweetest thing!
You are a racist bigot. Turds like you are the type who would love to find life on a planet like Mars-and abort it!
Demuth is spot on. The best you haters can do is cry and moan. No rationality, no arguments, no sense.
Thanks, William.
Cap...William says: "we let the wrong people breed" do you agree? Is this the atheist mind set...only the "right" people should breed (I guess this means white, educated people only, right?)
Using a sockpuppet, WD? You should abort any plans to use sockpuppets. There are too many sockpuppets in the world.
Hey, "A conversation" (lamenamebtw)
Atheism is a lack of a belief. It has ZERO to do with anything else, like abortion or your inability to realize how stupid you sound.
Anti-s e x u a l behaviorisms such as abortions leaves the 'abortioned' holding sensations of emptiness within their vacuumed brain yards chasms of anti-Life parameters.
Racism??
When did I mention race?
Race is suspect only in that it reflects culture.
Maggots exist in each and every racial group
In fact it is my fellow whites, usually the religious zealot types who breed in disgusting numbers
Simply reverse current policy and tax people MORE for each child they bear, not less.
Hey, I like that idea! Tax them MORE for having children. It makes too much sense. My head may explode. Srsly.
William...don't try to back track. You said: "we let the wrong people breed" There is no getting around it. You have repeatedly come on this site to share your belief that people who believe different than you should die. Sugar coat it any way you want–you are the worst type of person.
Jimmy, your response does, in no way, respond to what I wrote–but thanks for sharing.
And people said eugenics wouldn't catch on
He saith unto him, Which?
Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
Matthew 19:18
Amen.
Eugenics, in the classic sense, is merely the application of preventative medical ethics. Prevention is supposed to be a conservative action. To preserve and prevent harm is to conserve health. Fascism is a right-wing ideology. Forcing health on people is fascism, but "it's for the good of the future" which is anathema to so many short-sighted people who cling to short-sighted, unhealthy, and mentally ill-inducing dogma. So forced eugenics is fascism. But what if you had the choice to freely choose which level of eugenics you would prefer to live with? Doesn't sound so bad now, does it? Freedom to not have children. Freedom to have healthy children. Freedom from being born diseased or genetically burdened with some nasty disorder. Freedom to be born healthy and sound of mind and body, to live in a place that is healthy.
Do I sound like a fascist? I am a realist. A pragmatist. If something can make us all have better lives now and for future generations, I'm all for that. But oppression? No way. We've got too much of that. Forcing people to have children is insane.
Brainwashing them to have children, when they will grow up unhealthy and poor, is insane. It is merely growing billions of victims for the ones who benefit from this blatant sadistic fascism of brainwashing.
False information gives false results. You want to live forever? Better get behind health and education or you can forget it.
The reality of se-x, abortion, contraception and STD/HIV control: – from an agnostic guy who enjoys intelligent se-x-
Note: Some words hyphenated to defeat an obvious word filter. ...
The Brutal Effects of Stupidity:
: The failures of the widely used birth "control" methods i.e. the Pill (8.7% actual failure rate) and male con-dom (17.4% actual failure rate) have led to the large rate of abortions and S-TDs in the USA. Men and women must either recognize their responsibilities by using the Pill or co-ndoms properly and/or use safer methods in order to reduce the epidemics of abortion and S-TDs.- Failure rate statistics provided by the Gut-tmacher Inst-itute. Unfortunately they do not give the statistics for doubling up i.e. using a combination of the Pill and a condom.
Added information before making your next move:
"Se-xually transmitted diseases (STDs) remain a major public health challenge in the United States. While substantial progress has been made in preventing, diagnosing, and treating certain S-TDs in recent years, CDC estimates that approximately 19 million new infections occur each year, almost half of them among young people ages 15 to 24.1 In addition to the physical and psy-ch-ological consequences of S-TDs, these diseases also exact a tremendous economic toll. Direct medical costs as-sociated with STDs in the United States are estimated at up to $14.7 billion annually in 2006 dollars."
See also: http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/26/opinion/bolan-se-xual-health/index.html?hpt=hp_t4
And from:
"Adolescents don’t think or-al se-x is something to worry about (even though is becoming a major cause of throat cancer)," said Bonnie Halpern-Felsher professor of pediatrics at the University of California, San Francisco. "They view it as a way to have intimacy without having 's-ex.'" (Maybe it should be called the Bill Clinton Syndrome !!)
Obviously, political leaders in both parties, Planned Parenthood, parents, the "stupid part of the USA" and the educational system have failed miserably on many fronts.
The most effective forms of contraception, ranked by "Perfect use":
– (Abstinence, 0% failure rate)
– (Masturbation, mono or mutual, 0% failure rate)
Followed by:
One-month injectable and Implant (both at 0.05 percent)
Vasectomy and IUD (Mirena) (both at 0.1 percent)
The Pill, Three-month injectable, and the Patch (all at 0.3 percent)
Tubal sterilization (at 0.5 percent)
IUD (Copper-T) (0.6 percent)
Periodic abstinence (Post-ovulation) (1.0 percent)
Periodic abstinence (Symptothermal) and Male condom (both at 2.0 percent)
Periodic abstinence (Ovulation method) (3.0 percent)
Every other method ranks below these, including Withdrawal (4.0), Female condom (5.0), Diaphragm (6.0), Periodic abstinence (calendar) (9.0), the Sponge (9.0-20.0, depending on whether the woman using it has had a child in the past), Cervical cap (9.0-26.0, with the same caveat as the Sponge), and Spermicides (18.0).
You are a racist Nazi plain and simple, Willie Demuth. You'd probably abort when a white woman was impregnated by a black Kenyan man, yes? Well? Just what superior sort should live and which inferior sort should not? Perhaps more superior beings will arrive on earth and decide that your inferior ass needs to be deleted, eh?
@You Are Well Aware
End racism. Embrace misanthropy.
Racism is too limiting when there's a whole species of petty, stinking, farting, selfish, destructive humans to abhor.
The 1 billion people living in developed countries (US, Canada, Ja/pan, Europe etc) consume 32 times the resources of the other 6 billion.
The last thing this world needs is more humans, especially not more North Americans.
It is time to heed the message of the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement (VHEMT.ORG) : "May we live long and die out."
And who is paying for the cost of these kinds of meetings? Is not there a large budget deficit we should be doing something about?
I am so glad this is not a blog about politics or budgets.
It's 20213 and politicians act as if they've never heard of conference calls, or better yet, Skype.
Joe had to meet them in person to give them their lucrative wink and a nod so they would do what he asked them to do, or maybe he gets them drunk and jokes around with them until he can persuade them to see things his way. Winky winky.
Who cares? Biden as well as Ryan, Boehner, Reid and all the rest will run to kiss the Pope's ring.
Agreed
Just another special interest group they pander to.
Frankly, I think it should be illegal.
If we fail to keep religion and governance separate, we will inevitably end up in a civil war.
I believe Reid is a Mormon and Biden is pro-abortion so I doubt there will be much ring-kissing.
I don't care if Reid is or is not a Catholic! They all are IDOLATERS in one way or another. Biden and Ryan were trying to outdo each other to be the First one to kiss the Pope's ring. IDOLATERS United.

Seek first the kingdom domains of God and once your vision settles, you will know that one's body is where the kingdom domains of God are to be found. For: the ‘depths of atomized inwardness’ are as far away as the outward distant stars in the night skies. Either direction is as stained evolutions upon the inner and outer chasms of all issues cosmological. This earth of one's birth is a celestial wonder and our bodies are made wondrous by the evolutionary trails as being trailering wanderings of atomized cosmological constructs of cellular conditionings made manifested and is a testimonial to all celestial manifestations of living cellular combinations of atomized cloisters.

Science,
The conditioning of the human psyche is an entrustment issue of socialized embracing considerations via individualisms harmonizing a sensation of self-rationalized communal awareness. The aloneness of individualities makes for one reaching out from individualistic rationalisms to self-embrace a sense of social belonging even though individual loneliness shall never leave one's psyche. The playgrounds of cultivated socialisms is where any individual can find selflessness variables seeded redundantly apportioned from within one's own personalized psyche. The 'Game of Life' is for one to understand and also to be understood.

Oops.................fly.............as the flying fairy with angels and pitch forks !
And the unbelievers who bought into the con of evolution fairy tale didn't get fries with that whopper.
"SOS" is a naval emergency distress call meaning "Save our Ship", but at the CPAC, (Conservative Political Action Committee) convention, "SOS" stands for SpecialOperationsSpeaks.com, a new organization of former US Special Ops officers who are issuing distress calls about urgent high-profile questions, and critical unanswered mysteries about the 2012 Obama Benghazi debacle.
CAPT Larry Bailey, USN (Ret.), a former senior SEAL commander and co-founder of Special Operation Speaks, demands to know, "Where the heck is Admiral Gaouette?" ADM Gaouette was the commander of the USS Stennis Carrier Strike Group on station in the Persian Gulf area who was mysteriously summarily stripped of his command during the attack in Benghazi, Libya, in which Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans were murdered.
Several days afterward, it was reported that ADM Gaouette was summarily relieved of his command during a major operational contingency event during the Benghazi attacks for the alleged claim of "inappropriate leadership judgment." ADM Gaouette's detention and total disappearance weeks before the November 2012 presidential election was a story that CAPT Bailey says "disappeared into a black hole of silence."
CAPT Bailey, as a "Brother-in-the-Navy" of ADM Gaouette, has some urgent and vital questions:
Where is ADM Gaouette now, and where has he been for over 4 months?
Why hasn't Congress called ADM Gaouette to testify about the 2012 Benghazi fiasco, when he clearly was a key operational senior commander in-theater?
If ADM Gaouette is under some type of detention, what does "inappropriate leadership judgment" mean, what is he specifically charged with, and does he have proper legal counsel?
CAPT Bailey urges anyone who heard or saw anything, or has even the smallest most innocuous piece of the puzzle, to tell them what that piece is. He says, "The more questions SOS asks, the bigger the black hole of silence becomes."
Maybe he's in Gitmo. No need for rights there.
A GOP witch hunt by GOP witch cunts. When these assholes are a little more forthcoming about their own nefarious activities in the coverups involving Iraq, torture, & Gitmo, I MIGHT be a little more predisposed to listen to the Bengahzi disaster. Until then, meh.
If there is an actual admiral by that name I do not know. You'll have to prove the guy ever existed, prove he was in the Navy, prove he was an admiral, and prove that anything you have said, no matter how tiny, is true before I'm going to bother with your obvious trolling here.
2/10 for making me respond.
Republitards have little dicks...as we know. No tools in their toolbox, so Benghazi will go on and on just to distract us from that fact. Just remember Republican = little dick.
Just let me add that the proper place for your question, if it is legit, is with contacting your personal Congressional House or Senate member for your district.
They are the proper starting point for a civilian inquiry or investigation into a military or Federal legal matter.
They have a direct line to the military because they are members of Congress. They can open a Congressional Investigation or refer the matter to where it needs to go. They represent you in government. You must go through a chain of command.
If an admiral were arrested, it will come out sooner or later. If you want oversight and accountability, though, you may as well forget it. Corruption is too thick inside the Beltway. Apathy is more likely than action. Trying to contact CNN is a waste of time. They only want something they can see from their office windows so they know you're not a nut.
You own a Glenn Beck survival seed kit don't you?

There were more attacks on US embassies under GW Bush and more US personnel deaths in those attacks but the Benghazi attack and deaths have spawned more congressional hearings than all the Bush era combined. So definitely not politcally motivated then.
They don't have a "job" here. This is a blog. CNN is mostly about putting the news out on their cable channels.
They spend more time focused on sensational media coverage than worrying about their website, as anyone can see from the way they run the place...
Not only did SOS stand for SAVE OUR SHIP, it also stood for SAVE OUR SOULS.
You do realize that if you misuse the SOS signal you could be held liable? Just sayin.
SOS does not stand for "save our souls" or anything else. It's just a distinctive three-letter sequence easy to send in Morse code and easily recognized when heard. Look it up, you nit wits.
...we should forget worshipping this phoney mythical political construct, "JESUS" and go back to the DEIST roots of Thomas Jefferson! Jesus christ NEVER existed and do NOT believe in him!
The following people NEVER existed...I know its true, I know its true, I know its true!!!!!
Plato, Socartes, Aristotle, John Locke, Alexander the Great, Catherine the Great, George Washington, Monet, Voltaire, Ben Franklin, King George II, and freaking George Armstrong Custer.
I know these people didn't exist because the people who believe they existed are 'tards. I know they didn't exist because the people who created them only wanted to make money off their purported existence and so created writings and stories to enhance their profitability (via a vast, incredibly well executed conspiracy). I know they didn't exist because no one who existed before photographs could possibly exist. I know they didn't exist because I simply don't want to believe it in the face of all the evidence that these people existed.
If say George Washington was now worshipped as an infallible God who was incapable of telling lie's and his followers cut down cherry tree's each December to commemorate his infallibility, I would say THAT George Washington didn't live either. A very human, very mortal George Washington did, who likely told many lies in his lifetime, but most certainly the pompous inflated view of Geaorge Washington the deity never existed, much like that humble carpenter Jesus son of Joseph was a mortal man who's larger than life persona was erected, invented and refined over hundreds if not thousands of years.
@Aslo...(#2)...why still the handle? Your moving the goal posts. AOR made clear Jesus "NEVER" existed. I'm just commenting on THAT absurdity (or do you share in the absurdity?)
Jesus, as described in the bible never existed. That is a miracle preforming, son of god never existed.

The only background checks the right wing nuts want are racial.
Don't leave out gay or non-Christian.

Jhn 8:44 Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Jhn 8:42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
Dueling insanities?
What nut from which peanut gallery is jesting might I ask? Might you be from the fruited loopy atheist farmlands of nut-cake central? Maybe the sugar fairy farms of gay lake? Hell even the herded emotionalists of die hard village are devotionally employed in the peanuts galleria of doldrums follies.
More like two squires arguing over who's sh!t is nuttier.
Scooby 3:23 Ruh-roh!
Separation of church and state? Screaming it at the top of your lungs here? Telling Biden to stay out of religious freedom?
HYPOCRITES.
Religious freedoms? Political freedoms? Where does one 'draw-the-line'? I do not pay my religious dues to the God of All Creation but rather to the lessor one who evolved us out of the mired clay. There lays the differences between Creation and Manifestations. We did all evolve from a single cell just as it was done in the first day of establishing Life here upon this earthly world. One celled-in chasm entwined by the atomized fabric of inter-micro-cosmological spatial relationships.
One egg. One sperm. The biologically steadied states where within the atomized cosmos of cellular designations, there seems to be a codifying of perceptual discreteness far enough away for any practical understanding to be stood soundly upon.
@lionlylamb

Guns? Don't own any. Knives? Steak and butter kinds. No Bowies. A few pocket knives though.
This about sums the whole belief thing up.
