    You'll find out that every 2-party system is a joke

    I propose an new 5 party system. any one of these parties may not have a more than 60% of the vote at any time. Any votes for the party over 60% will be automatically divieded up amongst the other parties. The terms Republican and Domcrat will be disallowed and all incumbents will be randomly reassigned to the new parties, hereby desingated Party 0, Party1, Party2, Party3, Party4. In the event that this initial redistribution does not make a perfect balance, those that did not get assinged a party will be fired.

    Voting will resume as normal following this adjustment period.

    Thank you for your support.

    There are certainly no invisible dogs. The invisible talking llamas have told me so. To believe in invisible dogs is an obscenity! You must have a diseased mind and therefore, must be eradicated before your false testimony can corrupt the minds of proper llama fearing children!

  14. Re:I don't think so on DNA Suggests Three Basic Human Groups · · Score: 1

    Please be more precise concerning "people of faith". My greatest issue with most religion is the requirement that theirs be the only truth. This leads to the damnation of people of different faith that otherwise lead the same lifestyle as the religion under discussion. If Mother Theresa (sp?) were a Hindu, would her life have been less relevant? Many christians seem to reckon themselves as adjudicators of right and wrong, good and evil, even though their tenets tend to suggest that they behave otherwise. But is faith a get out of jail free card? Does a man who lives free of sin but rejects religion go to -insert postmortem unpleasant locale here- while a Christian who looks down upon the other man go to -insert polar opposite of previously mentioned postmortem unpleasant locale here-?
     

  15. Re:Is Genocide Even Wrong? on Stem Cell Treatment To Cure the Most Common Cause of Blindness · · Score: 1

    Having been on the patient side of the desk for infertility treatments, I would definately say that not human fits.
    A true story:
    During preparations for IVF, DOZENS as in more than 24 eggs were harvested at once. ALL of which were given the chance to fertilize. In our case 29 eggs were prepared. out of those 29, 10 divided. Out of those 10, 5 made it to the blastocyst stage. (this is where stem cells come from) the cell count of the inner cellular mass at that point is in the hundreds. I saw the pictures of all 5 blastocysts as well as why 3 were not going to be used.
    Neither of the two implanted themselves (still working out why). Those 3 unviable blastocysts could have been used for research. They wouldn't have survived to term anyway, and the other 2 died when they failed to implant.

    They couldn't really even be defined as organisms, now that I think about it. What people don't realize is that for every birth, (even under the best of all possible circumstances), there are probably dozens of blastocycsts that naturally die. Or woemen would get pregnant everytime they have unprotected sex.

    I agree with you 100%
    The issue I tend to take with the hyper-religious is their tendency to try to convince you that you aren't happy (even if you are) and can never be happy without .

    Most of the people I know are religious, and they respect my boundaries and we don't get into conversations about it.

    Religious freedom should allow for freedom from religion.
