    The Muslims, Jews, and Christians all believe in the same deity...
    I really don't understand that statement at all, as they all believe different things about him and call him different names. The only way I can partialy reason this, is that Christians claim to have the same God as the Jews, although many Jews would probably deny this.
  6. Re:Well on Holocaust Dropped From Some UK Schools · · Score: 1

    His point isn't that Muslims do stuff generally considered not nice, but that Mohammed told them to. Jesus as a general rule didn't tell people to kill each other, all though you will find plenty of that stuff in the old testament, although the new testament is supposed to supersede that.

    Did you ever wonder why bunny rabbits only exists in people's houses? (Hint: It's because monks bred them from wild rabbits until they became a new species, incapable of surviving in the wild.

    Some would argue as to whether or not loosing the ability to survive in the wild is evolution.

    Where I live Moco(with a c, not a k) is snot, not booger. Mokillo is booger. Knowing how much variance there is in spanish from place to place, your probably right about it being booger where you are, but it is spelt with a c, not a k.

    So, in the United States, you only have 2 candidates to vote for? That seems almost as bad as a single party system. I always thought that anyone could run for office there, am I wrong?

  25. Re:good project! on OLPC Project Interface Revealed · · Score: 1

    After helping countless people with their ms word problems, I'm starting to wish I'd never had the opportunity to know what a word processor is.

    More seriously though, living in the poorest country in central america, I see there is a huge demand for this. People are always asking about getting computers, and their use is expanding at an insanely fast rate. I critisized this at first, not outloud, but to myself, thinking how it was stupid, but the more I thought about it, the more it made sense. Even though it may not be helping the poorest of the poor (who will get them eventualy, I'm sure of that) it helps the slightly less poor, who are a very large portion of the population, and still deserving of help.
