Wow. The ACLU has turned from a group trying to protect civil liberties to an anybody-but-Bush group. They must be proud.

Reply to Judge allows religious theme (in school even) in Politics JoeUser Forums

What happens to those who aren't Christians? They are now set up for ridicule for their beliefs. I'm sure some of them might be ridiculed by bullies because of their religious beliefs, but what about people who are ridiculed for their political beliefs, tastes, lack of wealth, race, appearance, sexuality, weight, virginity, impediments, accents,

messybuu- I think you're misunderstanding me. I am NOT trying to say that JG is completely right because BakerStreet never proved him wrong. My point is simply that saying JG is crazy and mean doesn't show why JG is wrong and why his arguments aren't supported. If you want to point ou that he is wrong, then do it. You've both done it in some places. If you think is theory

Then Bakerstreet needs to point out the flaws in his arguments and show why they haven't been sufficiently supported rather than just posting that JG is a lunatic, and therefore wrong. Bakerstreet isn't the one who claimed that the universe is infinite and yet constantly expanding. John Galt did. If I say that Star Wars is 100% objective

Perhaps what is really needed is the erradication of joking. Get rid of pundits, humorists, comedians and satirists. Abolish humour altogether. After all, ( and I paraphrase here) " when a human laughs it causes the face to contort making them resemble monkeys. It is trully the work of the devil." While we're at it, let's do away with civility, manners, and all those other

In this instance, "this" was referring to the map at the beginning of the article. That is all. That's it. Fini! Over! Not every little slight said since the beginning of time between us and them, but this one, small, funny map. So jokes can never have any resentment or social commentary in it? For example, although the map is fictitious,

well, im not saying that all protestants are stuck up weirdos by anymeans. to say that is to be prejudiced against some 60 70 percent of america. heck, i once strayed from the church for awhile and experimented with a protestant denomination. though ive corrected myself of the heresy at confession, i must say that while i was there i got a look at the other side of the law

Sometimes I think this whole site needs to take a collective laxative, have a good dump and then maybe they'll gain back some of their sense of humour. So, all those attacks on Bush voters calling them redneck Jesus freaks and what not aren't meant to be taken seriously or mean absolutely anything in any way? Does

It's because Ozzy doesn't care about the legal trackers since they provide no service to him (i.e. pirated games, pirated music, etc.). I guess the person named messybuu must work for the riaa or mpaa. I wish! But I'm sure in the same boat as you and your kind (i.e. jobless).

isnt that the name of drmiler's blog site? It is, but it is irrelevant to the topic. It's just a name. It'd be like somebody responding to every post of yours not to discuss the topic, but to criticize the name of your blog (or your screen name).

I will not pay for a product which charges for services that are freely provided by artists. Then don't use it. Be happy with msstyles. Just dont'y pretend they're nearly as powerful as WindowBlinds skins. I agree with you though. I won't pay for a product which charges for services that are freely provided by artists. That's why I won't

It's not right to stereotype liberals as godless communists, but it also isn't right to stereotype conservatives, southerners, or Protestants as redneck Catholic-hating Jesus freaks. To do so is hypocritical.

Until these people complain about the Latin that refers to God and the All-Seeing Eye on the dollar, the celebration of Christmas, the way Sunday is a "special" day, I'll always see it as a publicity stunt.

I like the Luna look, but the .msstyles produced are mostly crap. Perhaps that's why really good ones, such as Reluna, garner so much attention. Meanwhile, literally hundreds of skins on the WindowBlinds side are of that caliber. People might have had an actual reason to prefer StyleXP and the msstyle format over WindowBlinds before, but considering how much it can do now (even I, somebody who's very anal about the tiniest button, am in awe of how much it skins these days), it's simply denia

Hey guys! Here's an idea! If you hate philosophy so much, stop making useless, hateful posts in the philosophy forum! See, some people actually like to discuss the different philosophies instead of attacking the people who present them. Everyone here seems intelligent, so why don't you stop calling each other stupid and evil and start discussing the topic. In case you've f

Of course it is bad!?! But what does that have to do with the validity of the Kyoto accord? This could and does happen with or without Kyoto.

It's the fact that it's Kyoto's blind policies that promote these kind of environment-friendl

The authorities certainly can use recorded conversations, however they need authorization for a wiretap. Federal law allows for a wiretap with single party consent. There may also be differences within different states and also for specific felonies in federal laws. So, if a mother catches her child being propositioned by a child molester o

Why assume there's a border? Further, the before is equally infinitesimal and paradoxically needs no time except to explode from its speck of space. Well, if it's expanding, then that means it's not infinite, because how could something that's already everything grow into more than everything unless everything isn't everything? <T

If parents can't monitor their children's conversations or activities on the phone or computer, then why can colleges (such as the one I am at right now) monitor the use of their computers? Because it's against the law unless the other party consents, right? Isn't that what the judge decided? Is eavesdropping on another person's conversation
