Well, i'm not going to dicuss this issue, though Artoo just said basically what i agree to. I've talked about this a lot and i just don't want to talk anymore right now. Maybe if this pops up later i'll debate it then, but not now. As for where the...  [Read More]

Head back to the swamp? Where we belong, is that it? I was talking to Templar, you're fine. And this isn't the first incident i've had to "debate" with him. I have no desire to do so again. [quote] Wasting time? We're educating each oth...  [Read More]

Who cares if bacteria becomes immune, that doesnt't prove anything. I've already said that there are positive mutations. But that bacteria is still the same bacteria, it is just immune now. Oh, and thank you for proving my point with down's syndrome...  [Read More]

Originally posted by Dagobahn Eagle I'm a buddhist and an ex-homosexual. Call me overreacting, but when a fundamental christian says I'll go to Hell for that, it offends me. When he's ignorant and imposes his religion on me, that's even worse (such...  [Read More]

Wow, this is historic. I actually agree with C'jais. ;) I really don't condone Artoo's signature at all. It doens't offend me like an attack on America does for obvious reasons, but i do not think it is appropriate. Why do we need to attack the Fre...  [Read More]

First of all, Qui-Gon, i get my news from a variety of sources including ABC, CNN, and FoxNews, as well as my local newspaper. And i'm not basing what i said on Blix on any report on him, just on what i've heard in interviews. He clearly and directly...  [Read More]

But how can you get anything done with 8 parties. No one side would have the ability to pass legislation (assuming your "congress" works in similar fashion to the US's). Therefore multiple sides would have to come together to pass anything...  [Read More]
