Right, wrt comments like the following, it's time to grow up: The problem is that even when we do something right, we don't get the credit for it. Mate, this is pure and whole childishness. Doing good is the minimum acceptable standard of human beh...  [Read More]

I meant the part where you said that as long as we're honest about when one thing drives a bus over another. I was speaking with regards to admitting mistakes. In short, sadly, the noble thing to do is punished. All too often punished, I'm afraid. 1...  [Read More]

I wanted to get some thoughts on this. Now, I've always said belief is irrelevent. Trust me, it is (faith however, is very relevent). So let's suspend disbelief. For the sake of argument let's say it's real and it's going to happen and get to the po...  [Read More]
