By that logic going down in a cave or a mine is also

This whole reading for comprehension thing is a bit beyond you,

you answer anyway, you look even stupider.)

And the US could still build such a thing, except for all the wasteful

It would save a few hours over driving on a trip from LA to SF but won't
go from San Diego to Phoenix. If you're in THAT much of a hurry, you can
fly, at a cost to the environment, but not your conscience, if you are a
hypocritical greenie.



Travelling by high speed train is a much more pleasant experience than
flying or driving.


[anecdotal opinions deleted]


Absolutely not. Flying is faster for long hauls, and for short or medium
hauls driving gives great flexibility along the route and at the
destination. Trains have the inflexibility of flying and the time savings
are only somewhat better than what a car can manage if the train doesn't
go to your destination.

That train is going to cost each Californian $2500 even if they never
have reason to ride it at all.



Have you ever travelled by high speed train in Europe? Have you even been
on the ridiculously slow trains in the USA?


Trains in the US aren't "ridiculously slow" they just have to make many stops along the way. The Acela train gets from Boston to Washington at average speeds close to what the trains in Europe can offer, but that is one of the few routes that are practical in the US, given the country's low population density.

The Acela can be great if you are a solo traveler needing to get back and forth along the Bos-Wash corridor on a regular basis, but that train will never get your family to Nashville from anywhere, and certainly not economically.

insipid statement about flying deleted


If you
haven’t been on a high speed train in Europe you can’t have any idea of how
the journey goes.


Yes, it takes ages to get anywhere, costs a small fortune, lacks flexibility, doesn't provide security for luggage, doesn't take you to your destination and then dumps you in a city with poor and expensive transportation options.

If an aircraft doesn’t go to your destination you need transfers from the
airport. This could be train, bus, tram, underground, hired car, taxi.
You have one less option if you go by train.


Yes, we in the US are aware about how to get to and from an airport.

Have you ever travelled by high speed train in Europe? Have you
even been on the ridiculously slow trains in the USA? Flying is
not a good experience and the waiting to fly, even in a first
class lounge is tedious. If you haven’t been on a high speed
train in Europe you can’t have any idea of how the journey
goes. If an aircraft doesn’t go to your destination you need
transfers from the airport. This could be train, bus, tram,
underground, hired car, taxi. You have one less option if you go
by train.

A friend of mine took the train from San Franciso to Los Angeles a
few years back, about 400 miles. The published schedule said eight
hours. It took well over 12 hours, and part of it was by bus.

The US does not have the ability to build passenger trains, largely
because nobody wants them. That's what makes them so attractive as
pork. The unions get billions in dollars, nothing is actually
completed, and everybody is relieved when it's cancelled.


London - Paris by train 2h 34min. 234 miles
By car 5h 43 minutes - this does however mean travel across the channel on
a train through the tunnel. By ferry very much longer. But that’s starting
now at 22:45 GMT and 23:35 Paris time. In the daytime a car journey would
be much longer.

You may say that’s not fair because of the channel crossing so:

Paris - Milan by train 7h 24 minutes, by car 8h 34 minutes 528 miles

And you just get on the train with the ticket in your pocket. No
formalities just show your ticket on the train if required. All seats
reserved.


Those time tables are NOT impressive. You save an hour in travel time, but the incremental costs of driving are small in comparison to the train fare.. If several people in your car know how to drive, you can share the driving.

Along the way there might be restaurants, shopping and other attractions at which you can stop at your leisure, on your time table. If you decide to change your itinerary you don't run the risk of losing money getting refunds on tickets.

Some years ago there was a whole lot of hot air about a hypothetical train that would run from a large city to a smaller city a few hours away. Even though I would be living near the proposed route, getting to the nearest stop would probably take longer than just driving to either city whenever I pleased.

Robbery and murder *are* immoral. The meaning of the word "moral" has become
distorted by our present society so that people often use it exclusively in
reference to sexual morality.

According to Scripture, Jesus forgives those who have sinned. It doesn't
restrict this to one particular _kind_ of sin. Thus, violation of the
Commandments "Thou shalt not kill" and "Thou shalt not steal" is included in the
domain of sin.

To say, therefore, that Jesus doesn't forgive criminals is to contradict Holy
Writ.

If you see some truth in his .sig, though, you are not entirely wrong. It's just
that it isn't quite worded right.

Jesus forgives sinners, and He forgives all sins, including those that are
crimes.

However, it is _not_ claimed by Scripture that Jesus *pardons* criminals.

And then, of course, there is the whole question of the limitations of Earthly
justice as opposed to Heavenly justice; for we cannot search the heart for
sincere repentance, among other things.
