The money is not in a cure for the disease, the money is in the treatment for the disease. If the big pharmas were in it for the good of mankind, they would be non-profits and their CEOs wouldn't make the money they do.
I have an M.D. from Harvard, I am board certified in cardio-thoracic medicine and trauma surgery, I have been awarded citations from seven different medical boards in New England, and I am never, ever sick at sea. So I ask you; when someone goes into that chapel and they fall on their knees and they pray to God that their wife doesn't miscarry or that their daughter doesn't bleed to death or that their mother doesn't suffer acute neural trama from postoperative shock, who do you think they're praying to? Now, go ahead and read your Bible, _Dennis_, and you go to your church, and, with any luck, you might win the annual raffle, but if you're looking for God, he was in operating room number two on November 17, and he doesn't like to be second guessed. You ask me if I have a God complex. Let me tell you something: I am God. ~~ Dr. Jed Hill (Malice 1993)
Yes but I believe his point is that, a mouse is not the same as a human and therefore we cannot yet tell what detrimental effects the drug may have on humans that did not occur in the mice.
This is untrue in the U.S. It is illegal for them to not offer you employment due to your age, religion, sex, race or disability, but they can ask. They tend to not ask it as it could open them up to litigation, but it is not illegal for them to ask.
Yet to children, what the teacher says, and HOW they say determine an initial belief in the statements being given to them. If a teach stands at the front of a class of impressionable kids and speaks with derision about a topic, the students are damn well going to follow suit. I have a 9 year old, I see this shit all the time and have to spend valuable hours of my life correcting the stupid shit that comes out of these teacher's mouths.
I was born in Tennessee and was REQUIRED to take and pass a bible course focused on the old testament in order to graduate the 6th grade, this folks, was in '91 in a public school. I moved to Georgia and when we took biology, our teacher was required to state to the class something to the order of: "I am legally required to allow any and all students who are offended by the teaching of evolution, to leave the classroom." Funny thing was, no one left.
One thing that I will openly give to the Catholic orders, there are many priests that will sit and have intellectual discourse over the concepts bandied about in the bible. I've had many excellent discussions with priests that would infuriate most other religious leaders. In this instance, we're talking about a broad policy handed down by the church, which some orders will follow while others will take as a "suggestion".
It makes sense as a belief, logically, it does not. But then, I do not pretend to attempt to apply logic to religious beliefs, especially when fanaticism may be involved.
yet is indicative of not only the society in which we live, but the the beliefs of many of those school districts. As well as the political atmosphere. Have you even read or heard some of the stuff these guys running are saying? Shit, Santorum wants to ban hardcore porn
"America is suffering a pandemic of harm from pornography," "Pornography is toxic to marriages and relationships. It contributes to misogyny and violence against women. It is a contributing factor to prostitution and sex trafficking."
Honestly I just go with the whole "old man raped a teenage girl to beget a son after he, in a jealous rage, whipes the earth clean. Then, he commits his son to death to atone for the actions of other people. Commands his followers to give their earnings, time and demands they indoctrinate their children as well as others." Hell, if Obama had done any single one of those things, they'd have crucified him in the rose garden.
they can justify it in their minds because one is supposedly "the word of god" while the other is the perversion of man. Seriously, I grew up with these nutjobs and it's how they think.
3 facets of the same being, with one being the physical manifestation of that divinity on earth. Took a friggin Catholic scholar to explain that one to me when I was about...10.
They track types of purchases. The pos either submits a type to the company or the credit agency has that company listed, through their TX vendor as "type"
When I worked for Kroger Food stores in the 90's, we uploaded that data every single night. We had to take any online register off, close their drawers out and then begin the process of batch totaling and upload of the days sales figures as well as a transaction by transaction record. We could pull up any transaction for the day from the register or from prior dates via logging into the central database.

Isn't that reasonable though? I don't want the world knowing about any of my fetishes either.
Then don't allow cameras in when you are enjoying yourself.

It is not illegal to ask, it is illegal to not hire you because of it.

If your WiFi is secured, then you don't need the defense because only those who really want to will use your WiFi to download files.

It really is something of a wonder to behold when you realize that the catholics are actually on the liberal side in the religio-sphere of the U.S.

It's funny!
There has to be a story there... you don't just appear before judges and tell them what you're reading or have read on a whim.
