Proportional Representation (I like Single-Transferrable Vote) only works for stuff like Congress where you're electing more than one seat. When you're awarding only one seat, (like with the President) you have to do something like Condorcet Method or Instant Runoff Voting.
That would still leave crimes of passion (where they don't have enough time to think about the consquences) and organized crime (where they have the resources to avoid jail fairly well.)
Similarly, we also prosecute thought crimes under the guise of "terrorism." If I blow up your office building because I want the government to support Tibetan independence, it is more severe than if I blew up it because I thought it would be funny.
Well, crystalizing room temperature water is a little hard to swallow, (water's too simple a chemical to do much to it) but you have to realize that the ultimate Ice-Nine is a little feller by the name of DNA. DNA may influence nearby nucleotides to polymerize into other DNA molecule.
No, I think it'll go down alongside "Really, I'm not out to destroy Microsoft. That will just be a completely unintentional side effect." as one of the cute things geeks say.
Jar-Jar was a bane onto humanity, but what's wrong with midiclorians? You need an explanation for why a energy force which goes through all things can only be manipulated by the select few, (training alone won't do it, you have to be born with the talent) and midiclorians fits the bill quite nicely.
And you still can get all the Zen stuff without leaving The Force in the domain of magic elves. A theory I worked out was that although midiclorians manipulate the force for you, manipulating the midiclorians ain't easy and it involves midiclorians responding to the stimuli of your endocrine and nervous systems. Thusly, in order to control the midiclorians, you need to be in control of yourself.
Although the idea of Anakin being concieved by midiclorians was just stupid.
Besides the factual inaccuracy of "It grew out of Red Hat," which is addressed elsewhere, the libraries have Windows boxes. (So hobos who don't have an Athena account can access the Internet, I guess.) Some of them don't even run Mozilla.
You can still believe in paralell worlds via the "Many Worlds" interpetation of Quantum Physics. This just says that Black Holes probably don't lead to them.
Well, considering that they are both languages which may be used to program the computational machine, and they both have keywords taken from English words, yes, they are the same.
Oh, of course. But there's no evidence for God. He's a popular idea, but when you look for evidence, he's just as well-supported as magic elves. You should certainly keep the whole God-theory in the back of your mind, just-in-case, but with the generous grain of salt of having no evidence.
If you would actually talk to some scientists, you'd found that scientists are also amazed at the massive amount of complexity the universe has. But instead of just sitting there saying, "Oh, it's so mysterious and amazing," we try to actually examine its awesomeness. And since we can get some neat stuff out of it, everybody's happy.
Yes, we'll probably never know everything. Who cares? We know what we know, and what we don't know we simply don't know.
And it's not non-intuitive that the more we know, the more questions we have. The more we know, the more stuff we have to ask questions about. And scientists are primarily in the business of finding and answering questions, so they'll be sure to search for every last question they can find.
You misunderstand his sentence. What we meant was (Pats, Donuts, and Computer) (Repair Shop.) That is, a Repair Shop with pats, donuts, and a computer.

They are both attractive body parts, but breasts secrete delicious milk, whereas the butt secretes somewhat less delicious poop. Boobs win.

No, there's a real article on the subject but that ain't it.
People don't do graffiti in pencil.
You're free to call your it whatever you want, but if you don't call it GNU/Linux, you suck and RMS won't like you.
No, most of us have posted from your girlfriend's apartment.
Ghost in the Shell, actually, but same thing.
Yeah, that meme is banished... IN JAPAN.

Episode Two was better than Episode One. If this trend continues, Episode Three should be near RotJ in quality.
Anarcho-Capitalism exists. It's basically Libertarianism on Crack. Although I'm not sure what Christianity has to do with any of this.

Yes, but they print the "Kill the Rainforest Weekly."

Republics are a form of representive democracy. Stop pretending democracy only means pure direct democracy.
It's spelt programme, but it's pronounced throatwarbler mangrave.

Inflammable means flammable!?
