Republican Argument

A tactic that many republicans use while arguing. It mostly consists of interrupting whatever you're saying with uneducated and irrelevant subject matter.
My stepdad and I got into a discussion about Glenn Beck, and he kept butting in every time I tried to talk. He used the old Republican Argument on me!

Kalam Cosmological Argument

The kalam cosmological argument for the existence of God originated and became highly developed in Islamic theology during the late Middle Ages. It gets its name from the word "kalam", which refers to Arabic philosophy or theology. Traditionally the argument was used to demonstrate the impossibility of an actual infinite existing in the real world, as well as an argument from temporal regress, thus showing that the universe cannot be eternal. In recent years these philosophical arguments have been confirmed by scientific discoveries, viz., the Big Bang theory. The most thorough and articulate proponent of the argument today is Dr. William Lane Craig.
Statement of the (modern) deductive Kalam Cosmological Argument:
p1. Everything that begins to exist has a cause of its existence. (Causal principle.)
p2. The universe (space, time, and matter) began to exist. (Evidenced by two philosophical arguments, the Big Bang, and the second law of thermodynamics.)
c3. Therefore, the universe has a cause of its existence.
Sub-argument:
sp1. As the cause of the universe (space, time, and matter), the cause must be outside of space, time and matter, and therefore be spaceless, timeless, and immaterial. Moreover, the cause must be a personal agent, otherwise a timeless cause could not give rise to a temporal effect like the universe. (Argument expanded.)
sp2. This is an accurate picture of God.
sc3. Therefore, God exists.

temple garments

these are the underwear and T-shirts for Mormons that are spun on Mormon looms. They ain't Hanes, nor are they Fruit of the Looms or BVDs. They are just "temple garments" and the labeling on the packages say just that.
When I was in Salt Lake City I went to a Z.M.C.I. department store (an LDS counterpart to Lazarus, maybe Macys). In the mens clothing department there were packages of temple garments on the shelves. So one thing I've heard about the Mormon faith was true, I also saw packages of these undies in department stores thruout southern Idaho, where there is a strong Mormon presence.
