    Not anymore... My HS used Bess, and it categorized google cache and other similar services like altavista as "loopholes," which my school chose to block. Does it block legitimate traffic? Absolutely, but the porn-hungry teenagers don't get their fix at school.

    You can't define a preemptive war without both honesty and an absolute standard of just wars. If you choose not to accept any absolute standards, then yes, everything will likely desolve into the situation you described. However, if you do accept such a standard (here's one set forth by the Catholic Bishops) (and no, I'm not a theist), it becomes possible to define a just war.

    The portion of my link which you quoted qualified preemptive war as a response to impending (usually unavoidable) war- this is where it draws its "justness."

    Preventive war (eg. the war on Iraq) is often, as you so eloquently put it, "just a good excuse to invade a country that we want to invade."

    I said noting about the Iraqi war being a preemptive war. The US war on Iraq is certainly NOT preemptive: it is preventive. Preventive wars are very difficult to justify (its possible, but not common).

    If you studied just war theory, you would know that preemptive war is just.

    If some future SMTP replacement mandated authentication, spammers would simply spam from legitimate email addresses. No, it won't read support@wachovia.com, but spammers could easily register wachoivasecure.net and the likes. The targetted users are too uneducated to know the difference.

    quantum mechanics and gr can't both be true... hence 'theory'. Theory of evolution cannot be proven over theory of religious influence in evolution... not to imply that religion can be proved (at the moment, at least... but this goes for anything that can't immediately be proved... future science can probably achieve things we dont even dream about) Not that the distinction matters anymore... half the stuff they teach us in university math is random 'theorems' that are painfully obvious...

    your habit is bad for yourself and more importantly bad for other people. that's why it's gradually being made illegal. get over it.

    If someone freely chooses to engage in activities that are bad for their own health, it is their right to do it, to the extent that it is not bad for the health of others. If my own right to smoke in smoking-designated areas is revoked due to fucktards like yourself, I will be one angry motherfucker.
