Guns don't kill, people do. Cars don't kill..drunks/inept drivers do. Cigarettes don't kill..smokers do. What can we do but accept?

The diference is: Cars were designed to get you from point A to point B safely. They even have seat belts, air bags, and anti-lock breaks to improve the safety. If you use a car to kill someone, you are using it in a way that is different from how it was intended to be used. Guns were designed...

Could you afford a $10,000 a night room, Nancy Pelosi apparently can. (On your money), How does that make you feel?

It makes me feel she must be rich- so the Republicans want her to have tax breaks at the expense of destroying the middle class! Luckily, even though she is rich, she is not a Republican.

Palin calls on Romney to release taxes and Bain Capital data to substantiate job creation claims. Should he immediately do so?

A corrupt politician asking another corrupt politician to release documents revealing his corruption? Is she going to fling open all her skeleton closets too? Heck, if every politician revealed the truth, we would not vote for any of them. Ironic though, because that is exactly what would make...

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:56:47 -0800

In English, the city of Koln becomes Cologne and Wien becomes Vienna. Do other languages/countries mangle any English-speaking city names?

I know that the Japanese name for Japan is Nippon. And Germans call Germany Deutschland. I think we should let each country decide for itself what it's name is, and we should all refer to them by that name. The French call the United States "Etats Unis". While that might be a translation of the...

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:52:11 -0800

Is Newt Gingrich unelectable?

I think of it this way- even after everything with OJ Simpson, he still managed to get a girlfriend, and she stayed with him for 13 years. That shows how stupid some people can be. And, just the fact that Newt has people backing him shows it too.

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:33:10 -0800

Republican National Committee files brief seeking to allow corporate funding of campaigns. Should that be legal? Why/why not?

Of course is should not be legal for corporations to fund Republican campaigns out in the open. They should only do it in secret, as they have always done. Al of this "corporations are people too" crap is one of the most blatant and direct assaults on the American electoral system since Jim Crow.

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:20:53 -0800

Is Romney the only one who would have a chance vs. Obama?

No, because he does not have a chance either. Obama's popularity is on the rise, and the public opinion of Republicans in general is down the crapper. The only people now who would vote Republican are Theocrats, Billionaires and the Farmers who don't realize where their farm subsidies come from.

Answer to Does God love naked people?

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 12:25:12 -0800

Does God love naked people?

God made Adam and Eve naked, and did not command them to wear clothing. They only started to cover their nakedness after committing the original sin, so clothing is simply the biproduct of sin. So, all good Christians should stop their sinful ways and run around naked, free of original sin.

Answer to Why do we call God 'GOD ' while we address Satan by the name 'SATAN' when the fact is that they are both of them 'gods'?

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 12:14:00 -0800

Why do we call God 'GOD ' while we address Satan by the name 'SATAN' when the fact is that they are both of them 'gods'?

Most Christians don't know that the word "god" is a word that describes an entire classification of supernatural beings, it's not a proper name of their supreme supernatural being. Yes, Angels and Demons qualify as "lesser gods". And since Satan is in an eternal struggle with Yahveh, that means...

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 11:58:55 -0800

Do you trust public transportation to drive safely? Why or why not?

How do you trust the men & women who hates God & hate the rules of life?

Who hates god and hates the rules of life? Only someone who believes in God can hate God. And only someone who is suicidal can hate the rules of life. Atheists love our neighbors, and we don't need a magic man in the sky to tell us to. And, as usual, the only one filled with wrath, hate,...

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 11:41:06 -0800

Is it OK to slap someone who presumes to correct you for not capitalizing "god" or "his?"

Oh yeah. I hate it when people feel the need to correct minor mistakes in grammar or spelling. If someone's writing is so atrocious that it is impossible to figure out what they are saying, then yes, correct them. (and that happens too frequently, especially kids with their texting shorthand)...

Does Darth Vader represent God, the vengeful? Is the destruction of Alderaan meant to represent the deluge that only Noah & crew escape?

No, that is just more government idiocy. All you just did is scream "let them eat cake" at the poor while sipping a 400 dollar glass of wine. You are trying to save a few pennies of government spending by attacking poor people, when the problem is the vast amounts that the government is...

Are fantasy and magic the same? How much of one's imagination plays into the scenario of belief? Do we need to believe in the miraculous?

Fantasies are stories about magic, which is the main power source behind the fantasy. Belief does not take much imagination- it is blind faith in what others have told you. It took imagination for the originators of the faith though. And the faithful do some imaginative twisting to justify why...
