Germans were charged with crimes against the peace for invading Poland and France. Aggressive war was already outlawed by 1939, and the average German soldier was complicit, his only defense being "I was only following orders." It was probably the right move to let them go.

No it's not, but all those issues are addressed from time to time in various series, including want, conflict and fascism. The concept of an all-wise alien is rejected outright in Star Trek.

"The philosophical explorations of X-Men or Firefly are far more interesting." Philosophy aside, a future shaped by a powerful federation sounds a lot more desirable and a lot more likely than one shaped by cowboys or mutants.
If the US switched to a proportional system, the odds of a minority government headed by Rush Limbaugh would become greater than zero, and that's a risk I'm happy that the founders avoided.
Hitler was elected as head of a minority government.
Same as I wrote below. OP was discussing buyers, not farmers. If you got rid of gold farmers, you'd still have gold buyers, especially if the company sold gold directly.
I don't understand this attitude if any amount of gold can by had simply by spending enough time to gather it. What possible difference does it make to any competition between you and someone else if instead of spending a year mindlessly grinding for gold, he paid someone a hundred bucks for it?
What are you saying here, that the insurgents cunningly tricked the US into invading, or that the US has given up subtly provoking aggression in favor of unleashing it themselves?
If you're for overwhelming force aimed at wiping out the enemy, why are you against the use of nuclear weapons, or at least express relief that they weren't used? It's a tacit admission that nowadays, there is such a thing as too much force, that it can make things harder, not easier. This has been true since the end of WWII and will continue to be true for the foreseeable future.
I had some bad symptoms from quitting a mere 1 pop a day habit: headaches, lethargy, depression, for about two weeks. Even now, years later, I still have frequent, intense cravings.
The sheer complexity of games makes depth impossible at this point. Heck, just look at the effort it took to create a medium length choose your own adventure book.
Asking for deep games right now is like asking a caveman to paint The Brothers Karamazov on his wall.
Your education seems to be relatively lacking compared to most highschoolers, but in any case, Darwin's great breakthough wasn't that evolution happened: people had already started to come to grips with this idea. Darwin's big idea was natural selection, which cuts God completely out of the evolution. To this day, people still ponder the possibility of divinely directed evolution. This mode of thought is completely pre-Darwinian. I suspect in your school, the teacher simply thought it was too impolitic to drop the full context of Darwin's breakthrough on people that 150 years later still aren't ready for it.
Air resistance is a function of surface area, not mass. It would be quite trivial to make something as massive as a bowling ball fall slower than a feather, and it's pretty easy to make a feather fall as fast as a bowling ball. In normal atmosphere.

No, but almost all German soldiers weren't charged even though they were took part in illegal invasions.

Whatever revisionist history you got this from seems to omitted the Night of the Long Knives.
Bill Clinton, George Bush (ok, bad example) Barack Obama were all pot smokers, Al Gore was a heavy pot smoker.
He's also been dead for decades.
Doesn't look like step 3 is necessary.
How is someone who spends weeks of their time to play their way to to top any less of a loser than someone who buys their way?
Not wrong, just a different game.

Yes. The potential to make gaming visually interesting is so much higher than in sports.
If America had a proportional system, Rush Limbaugh would from time to time be the head of a coalition government.
Of course it was bad and sick, otherwise, what reason is there to condemn the politicians that ordered it?

Only the poorest of governments cannot afford ponies, and even those can still chop of your wiener. So what's the downside?

Name one church that has ever argued that they're entitled to $5000-$7000 a year per school child by governmental force.
Never heard of school vouchers? This is precisely what they are advocating.
The issue hear isn't freedom. You don't have the freedom not to send your kids to school, not to pay for school in this country and you never have.
This is about the rights of your kids to actually learn something about the world despite the ignorance of their parents.
