Well, we know that some male animals instinctively choose to mate with females during their fertile period (you know, pheromones and all that). So it's not strange to think that maybe some rapists subconsciously would act on the same kind of instinct and do the same. So having a high rate of rape pregnancy doesn't seem strange.
You know what the the problem is? It is that sex outside of marriage is legal. So to prove rape you need to prove that the sex is not consentual, which sometimes is very hard. The solution is obvious. Make sex outside of marriage illegal. Then the issue of consent doesn't arise. You fucked a woman who's not your wife? Go straight to jail.
People who are ignorant regarding a particular subject would also be less likely to show good judgement. In the end, rather than judge the case based on its merits, which they don't have the capacity to understand, they might instead judge based on the bias they form due to the lawyers' charms & good looks, or the lawyers' eloquence & wit, or their skills with powerpoint presentations.
No reason for the USA to back things with gold, simply because the USA doesn't have enough gold to back up all the dollars in circulation. OTOH, other there have been attempts by other countries to move to gold-backed currencies, but these attempts are heavily resisted by the USA, for fear of further devaluing the US dollar.
Really? Do you think in the year 3000 when people talk about the Higgs boson, they would say, "To think, the Higgs boson could have been found as early as 998 years ago instead of only 988 years ago."?
Are you sure you got the right site for fedora? Did you type in fedora.org? In which case, tasteless is correct, unless you like the taste of puppies.

Quoting verse 9:5 without explaining the context is like telling the story of WW2 by talking only about the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Person 1: Hey, can you tell me about World War II?
Person 2: America bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki, killed around 200,000 people.
Person 1: Wow! America did that? Surely there's more to it?!
Person 2: No, that's all there is. America dropped two atomic bombs on Japan! America is teh evil!!!
Person 1: America is teh evil!!! Death to America!!!
I think it does. Let's say there are two candidates, A & B. A got 50.5% of the votes. B got 49.5% of the votes. So we say that A has a 1% majority over B.
Searching an internal knowledge base does not make it a search engine, any more than searching the file index on my hard drive makes Windows Search on my PC a search engine.
No. It's a computational knowledge engine: it generates output by doing computations from its own internal knowledge base, instead of searching the web and returning links.
Wow, strange that:
1. You have a low UID, meaning you're old.
2. Old as you are, you still haven't managed to learn to write proper English. Haven't you learned anything from the grammar Nazis providing advice on Slashdot over the years?

What do you mean by hard? If a woman really want to get pregnant, I believe the chance is much better than 5%, I think.

That's a very informative link. Most interesting is that Oklahoma has the option of death penalty for statutory rape.

Why not install Linux on your macbook pro, if you miss it so much?
My phone (android) will lice in standby for about a week...
Eww, that's gross.

What are you talking about? The stem cells used in the kid's treatment came from her own bone marrow.
No, my left.
How would you like it if a superior life form used YOU as mere food?
One day I will die and my flesh will become food for maggots, earthworm and/or I don't know what else. Should I have a problem with that?
Thank you saveferrousoxide for that explanation.

The Avengers is technically a sequel to "Iron Man", "Iron Man 2", "The Incredible Hulk", "Captain America", and "Thor".
FTFY.
If I am ever wrongly convicted for something, I would rather get caned and then go free than spent years in prison.

Yeah, okay. However, since we're talking about an Air Canada flight here, maybe you should quote Canadian law instead of a US one.

Sorry, non-native English speaker here. Can you please explain what that means?
