I kinda like my lower utility bills, 11 cent miles and lack of trash to haul out.
That's just me though.

My family is very religious. I'm sure god will be mentioned at my funeral. I really don't care, the funeral is for my friends and family. I'll be gone, no way for me to care any more and it's not like anyone is gonna hear someone mention god at my funeral and people are going to think "Oh so he wasn't an athiest!"

I've been to canada mexico and ofcourse the US. There's really not much difference between the people. Well actually the asshole ratio seems to go up the closer you get to the north pole.

One thing I always think of when people talk "start drilling now" is who is going to pay for it?
Ofcourse it's going to be the oil companies. Huge investments are going to go into it, investments that will be passed to us the consumer. Don't get me wrong. I'd like to see us become more independant with our oil, but I still wonder if that's going to hurt us more waiting for the break than just riding out our current situation.

One affordable option
Another option. 50MPG!!!
Oh and so much more.

Isn't it romantic and exciting?!!
Wait. What's that crying thing? How do I make it stop? WTF I gotta feed it too?!

It was suggested in a different thread to get rid of marriage as a legal term all together, leaving the only "Marriage" in the country in the hands of religions. Widening the term to civil unions to cover both gay and straight couples.

Secondly what if people decide to take advantage of a gay marriage and decide to fake marry in order for a cheap buck? I mean hey its a lot less awkward to hsare a house with a best friendr ather than a girlfriend.

There's nowhere that written that a couple needs to live together. I could easily marry a random chick, enjoy the benefits and still maintain our seperate households. Besides this is common practice already among straight couples. The sanctity of your marriage is defined by you and your spouse and your actions. Just because bill down the street beats his wife and cheats on her with his secratary doesn't mean your marriage is going to fall to pieces.

Gay marriages is also the gateway to other definiitons in marriages. People who promote gay marriages claim that their same sex marriages never hurt anybody. Fair enough but lets say I love my cat. Lets legalize pet marriage because it never hurt anybody. I mean hey its alright cuz partners would be consensual, right?

As far as I know we have no idea how a cat would consent to a legal binding contract. Hell we can't tell if they're hungry want petted or just to walk you to some random corner in our houses most of the time.

Address these points and I will happily refute.

I know I'm not the only one to address all points made, and I won't be the last. I'm also sure that everyone will do a fine job so take your pick and refute. I doubt you actually can.

I like this solution. It's not really a comprimise, it just takes alot of the arguing chips away from from the anti-gay rights people out there. My big worry is once the gay marriage/civil union argument is done and over with. How much more of a hurdle will there be to get gay adoption and parenting rights set?
Is it something to take one at a time or do you tackle the two together?

$3.95 here. I wanna say I win, but that would be sad.
I just filled a geo metro for $26. I was shocked the first time I hit the twenty mark on that car.

The problem comes when they try to intertwine faith and science. Lately there has been a rather harsh tone towards religion. At the base of it you'll find several small debates over creationism in public schools gay marriage and abortion to name a few. Most of these can be debated on a logical level, but the fact remains the majority of christians(yes I'm singling them out) took the debate to "Well, We're the majority so you'll have to deal with it. That being said the number of athiests and even christians that believe there beliefs are personal and don't need to be shared by the government that represents them have grown by leaps and bounds in recent history. So after this last batch of power trips that have been pulled people are finally starting to fight back.
The assholes on both sides get louder each day and lines are being drawn that are forcing people to pick a side.
So to put it simply. I have a voice now as an athiest. If you want to use your religion as a reason to dictate how I live my life you damned well better be ready to prove to me it's true.

is it true the irish have huge nipples?

I've found a simple way around this. When someone says something like "That's a gay table." I'll say "Indeed it puts it's penis in another male tables anus."
I figure, you give it a sexual orientation I'll give it sexual organs. And it's such a dumb joke that after hearing it a few times people will avoid using the word for the sake of not hearing it again. Not that I really have a problem with the word or using it. Overused insults just annoy me.
Also. Man up nancy boy.

I swear this exact post was made a few months ago. Not similar, but EXACT.

Let me just take a moment to apologize for how poorly that last post was written.

If I was a Fish who NEEDS fins in order to survive in hostile enviroments such as the water, having a mutation of a bump instead of a fin would decrease my speed and most likely kill me. If that doesn't kill me, it will kill my offsping eventually. Even so, for that leg to full grow off of one mutation with bones, neurons, proteins and everything is highly implausible and for multiple mutations for that same bump down the same family line is also highly implausible.

Let's say that the fish found itself living in an enviroment with shallow water. It may develope a way to breath both the water and the air above since it's alot easier now for it to find itself out of water. Now throw in a predetor who doesn't have this trait, to escape it could throw itself on land to escape. Well it's land more and more and those fins aint providing that great of transportation. So it developes legs, or more likely became longer with a more flexible spine to crawl more like a snake. Pretty soon it says "fuck the water I'll just stay up here" and pretty soon it loses the fins that do it no good on land. Now it's getting harder to find food since the plants have now adapted and has grown it's leaves and fruit higher to get away from this snake. There's now a need for it to develope legs for climbing, not to mention by now the predator that now has less of a food supply has made it to land and the original now needs a way to be quicker to escape him again.

There's always gonna be a reason for an animal to adapt to survive. And with smaller animals having such a short life span there's no reason they couldn't make these changes in just a few thousand years if that also means a few thousand generations.

Dude, it's a joke. I often have non-serious posts in topics of this calibur. It entertains me.

If they were smart enough to not be gay or black in the first place they wouldn't have gotten it. It's just a form of punishment passed down from god himself.

I think the problem is you're looking at two different(and more) groups put under the same banner.
You have constitutional conservatives crying for the second ammendment and christian social conservatives crying because they fear the country will be unclean.
Just like on group of liberals crying for one groups rights on one issue, and picking up another issue like smoking bans that takes away other peoples rights.
It looks pretty stupid if the entire community acted as a whole, but that's not how it is.
And just to note I am a conservative who strongly supports gay rights. Hell Even Bill O'rielly has said publicly several times and has yet to try to stear away from that he has no problem with gay marriage.

I can't stand house music.

There's not much you can do about it.
Think of it as a tax and not as an investment.

You think that there are good explanations for the majority of people who are healthy, young, and on welfare, though?

Young single mothers can be lazy too. My ex, who got pregnant with our son at 17, currently collects child support from me(something I gladly pay) and welfare benefits from the state. She has the option to attend a tech college at no charge and I've offered to cover childcare costs when she needs to be in school and I'm at work. The thing is she refuses. And I don't blame her. Right now she can stay home day and night and cover all her bills with support from the government. Why would she want to go to a trade school and cover all her bills by working?
If you really want something that is going to fix the sad state of welfare all you need to do is bring back the shame of accepting it.

that should have been rated R for excessive gore. HAHA I made funny.
Anyways. If gore had been elected Republicans would probably be yelling "You call us violent. You took us to war without any evidence for the sake of controlling oil interest."

If you're all interested in this topic enough I'd suggest doing some research into Margaret Sanger and her writtings.

Here is a shiny coin to look at.
Isn't it nice?
Enjoy the shiny shiny.

Well you're both wrong. After extensive searching and tireless detective work I have uncovered a photgraph proving that Barrack Obama is actually....

A NINJA MORMON!!!!!!

semper fudge soldier.
Seriously though. It shows alot of character and courage to enlist and you'll leave with double that and more.

Who thinks obama is a muslim? There was a short week that rumors were around and they were quickly put aside.
Maybe if your guy doesn't win it's on actual substance? It's possible people disagree with you and him. It's possible they're making an informed decision about who they are voting for and obama just isn't who they feel is the best choice.
Either that or you can keep fighting scarecrows. It's up to you.

Well shit I'm racist too. I hate assholes.
Don't worry about it. It has little to do with the race itself it's just that with your placement being 75% hispanic chances are the assholes are going to be hispanic. Go somewhere where it's 75% white, chances are the majority of assholes will be white. Same goes for any other group. Except for the fins, everybody loves the fins.

Assuming both parties know it's an illegal abortion. Rape inccest mothers life in danger yadda yadda.

Short jail sentance for the mother. Possible psychological evaluation and a mandatory redux of her highschool sex ed class.
Jail and loss of licence for the doctor performing said abortion.

Charges to the doctor don't apply if what the mother said is found to be false. And manslaughter charges to the doctor if he performs it without the mothers consent or best intentions in mind.

You guys have lost the touch when it comes to spotting trolls.
