The reason why alcohol and tobacco are legal, is because the government can't make them illegal. By doing so they would be millions of people out of business. Since marijuana was deemed illegal a lot earlier in US history is was easier to do so, without harming the economy.

I think marijuana ...

Not to mention it costs taxpayers about 500,000 dollars per life-sentenced criminal.

The person who was unjustly murdered is worth more than that in my view. I'm glad for my taxes to go towards executing someone who had no right to take another person's life.

Let me repeat that...the person who ...

which is why i voted it. But it has a hell of a lot more relevance than "Aliens taking over the world".

The play was horrendous. I had trouble finishing it, it was so bad.

I'm surprised you didn't put in religious theories such as in Christianity, we believe God will eventually come down, and destroy earth.

i'm in.

count me in. Im a premium.

I satanic cult sign.

The fact that the Christian population has only increased by the 5% actually shows the decrease of % of Christians in America. Our Population is increasing by about 10.8% per year (m), which shows a net loss in Christians in the United States.

Secondly the fact the they are different, because one ...

The belief that non-practicing Christians can be considered even in the realm of a true Christian is nothing more than hocus pocus. In reality a "true" Christian will go to Heaven. This is to be accepted based on the fact that if you do not follow God's commands you are not a true Christian. And God ...

Athiesm is a belief all in its own.

sounds good. Let me see what you got.

I think and argument about "whose 'faiths' are greater, an athiests or cristians". The athiest can make the argument that the fact that an athiest will go to hell if he is wrong makes him go out on more of a limb. Would be an intesting debate all the same.

This can not be argued. Christianity controls 33% of the world population. But what could be debated is whether their are more Athiests than "true" christians. Meaning those that actually practice and follow the religion, not people who are christian just because their parents are and so on.

It's happy to see that the best country in the world, which when I have the money I will move away from, is staggering in education levels, which is essentially directing the future state of the country.

Dare to elaborate?

Since the budget for education is being cut to make way for more ...

Hording the wealth for the very few while their people live in fear and poverty.


Sounds awfully close to America.



That's why the U.S. currently has 4.4% unemployment.....

because we're all poor



I would also like to say, that the Unites States is virtually 100% employed. The 4.4% are ...

Well in america it is not the case, and not only that I spend over 4 hours a night on homework plus another 1-2 on research.

And Guiscard, don't you dare call me a racist or a bigot. Did I not say 1,000,000 times that I was not siding with him. So, either you weren't listening or you were engulfed in your self love.

No I am not. But most at 16 years old do not. And I was replying to guiscard calling me a rich snob.

The United States is armed with bombs, not knowledge, and the administration's realization of their lack of knowledge is quickly filled by a plethora of stereotypes, panic, warmongering efforts, and an attempt to equate critics of the war with "unpatriotic."

Eloquent and insightful. Best snippet ...

Juggernaut, your a first class idiot. Guiscard was not comparing economic power. Everyone knows USA has the largest economy (after the EU ).

Does ODA, or the fact that the graph says "Aid flows top USD 100 billion in 2005", or the fact that Guiscard then talk about the biased nature of US aid, or ...

Guiscard. I hate to have to get involved but

Clinton was offered Osama but he said no. You can't get much more at fault than that.
