    Why do people smoke weed?

    Do I have to source all of them or can I skip the cigarette ones? and it might take a while to find a few considering some were news broadcasts (and no, not from fox news for you people who don't like them) (Oh and does the fact I TEACH science count for anything?) ((And to throw it in here...

    Is the RCC still manly?

    The church I went to for 15 years, my whole childhood (can't remember before 3 anyway) would have been perfect. No people didn't socialize during mass, but after we the church had a hall and people would volunteer each week to bring in food, make coffee, etc. We originally called it "Coffee"...

    Is the RCC still manly?

    Well the church (or is it Church, I always confuse what to capitalize) is consisting of the people in it (yah, I think I'm talking about little c). And I am willing to stand up for whats right, so you have at least one.... I'm guessing the posters above me are too, so that's some more. The...

    Vatican analyst: Catholic use of contraception linked to silence of clergy

    Sorry, but I must interject with a fact correction here. The Sins of which you speak of were just as commonplace back then as they were now. The only difference is instead of latex, it was animal intestines and other various (albeit somewhat disturbing) ways.

    Drowning out the hate hustlers: Palin and Beck cannot steal America's soul

    So because he is a faith that most Christians claim is not Christan, he has no valid beliefs? If you have bothered to watch just his hour and 3 min long segment, heck skip to near the end if you want, you would see 240 Minsters, Priests, Imams (sp?), and other religious leaders who agree with...

    Crowd at Beck rally racially diverse

    We make the point because most people won't concede what you just did. (We can back it up if you bother to look at the photos of the event.)

    While Tea Party people were there, this wasn't a Tea Party event.

    Left-wing nut job holding hostages at Discovery building

    See the problem is, instead of watching "An Inconvenient Truth" which is often scientifically wrong if you ever learned anything in school. He should have watched Mythbusters from Discovery, so he would use his violent tendencies for good.

    Drowning out the hate hustlers: Palin and Beck cannot steal America's soul

    Part of the whole point of the rally was it was not political. Sometimes there are no cloak and daggers.

    Do You Think Rush Limbaugh And Glenn Beck Are Dangerous?

    Do I think they are dangerous? Glenn, No Rush, Yes Why? Because Rush yells more, and it's hurting my eardrums! (okay I don't listen to his show because he is always yelling, but to be fair, he is part deaf)

    Drowning out the hate hustlers: Palin and Beck cannot steal America's soul

    Alright, all your Beck haters. Answer me this. How many of you watch Glenn's speech at the rally, and watched it with an open mind for the full hour? That's what I though, if you are a christen and have a problem with the message of "turning back to God" then what the heck are you doing on a...

    Life Without Gender?

    Here is how gender works in my mind. Open your mouth wide *swabs the inside with cotton and sends it to a lab* -4 to 6 weeks later- Oh, the lab says you have [insert xx, xy, or the various genetic mutations like xxy] (this, just so you know, is why gene therapy could be dangerous, as it...

    I don't understand what's wrong with it

    Hi Jim, I'm a Conservative who votes Republican and my second choice was Mitt, as my first was Fred Thompson. So don't go stereotyping which is what this issue is all about, people stereotyping. Lady Bug, to answer your question, if Obama was actually a Muslim, it wouldn't matter one iota IF...

    Iran, the next pimple to be popped ?

    Couple of things I would like to say here. One: These conflicts have been going on since biblical times, I forget where, but it's in there somewhere (I'll try to find it and post). Our "western ways" aren't about to change anything. (This isn't a support for, or support against thing, just a...

    Creative thinking required.

    heh, yes I know to pray, as I do. I was always remember "The lord helps those who help themselves" (Really don't remember where I learned that) but because of that phrase, while I pray, I don't wait around and wait for things to happen, I go out and DO things so that they happen. Often this...
