    Peter Higgs criticises Richard Dawkins over anti-religious 'fundamentalism'

    Arrogance is not fundamentalism. Expressing an opinion or idea shouldn't be labelled that way if it isn't dogmatic, violent, or hateful. Religious people need not get offended. If Atheists were to get upset at everyone who had beliefs counter to theirs, then they would be upset all the time...

    American Foreign Policy in Isreal

    So would you say their values are the same as Americans? Such as deomcracy, and liberalism. Obviously there is more than one reason. It's complex. Some other arguments I've heard are geography and strategic positioning, a powerful jewish lobby in America, and polling which shows Americans hold...

    American Foreign Policy in Isreal

    Yes, according to my research Americans have given at least 123 Billion dollars in aid for the Israeli military, (but only about 3 Billion per year.)

    American Foreign Policy in Isreal

    What are the reasons for American foriegn policy in Israel? Why is Israel so popular in the United States? Is it a good idea to favour Israel out of all the other states in that region? (Example: Aid to Israel is much higher than any other country)

    Iran or Syria if we must use military action?

    Syria for humanitarian reasons only, in & out, and with no collateral damage. That is my preference if given the ideal circumastances.

    Flying Etiquette

    Ask for balkhead next time. As long as we're venting about proper etiquette... Is it just me, or is anyone else sick of dealing with extremely smelly people. There is a man who comes into my work, and he can be smelled coming from a ten meter radius, and the smell lingers for about a minute...

    Requiring an ID to exercise a right

    Again, nobody else is allowed to touch the ballots other than the one chosen person who is watched carefully by everyone else.

    Requiring an ID to exercise a right

    "You don't have 50 separate states each with 100s of localities, and you have one tenth our population." Ok, please tell me how that affects voter fraud then. Don't you still have a list of registered voters? In theory nobody could just make up the name "joe blow" and go vote ten times, right...

    Hilarious For Sale By Owner Sign Calls Out Neighbor (PHOTO)

    It doesn't seem as though the owner took Marketing 100, but then again maybe it's strategy...get the neighbor to move first?

    Requiring an ID to exercise a right

    It would be very difficult to committ voter fraud here in Canada. I'm curious how our system differs. Basically you are put on a voters list, and when you come to vote they have your name and information, right? It wouldn't be possible to vote multiple times because they would have recorded you...

    Requiring an ID to exercise a right

    Yes, I would consider it a form of voter supression. It is in violation of one of your most basic rights. Cases of voter fraud are so rare they are almost non-existent. I would agree with Roughdraft247's solution. I am Canadian so I am really not familiar with the gun laws there. It sounds to...

    "The Innocence of Muslims"

    Thank you for welcoming me. Religious violence is not limited to just muslims though. I think it is generally easier to blast someone (or yourself) into oblivion if you believe there is an afterlife. There are even Buddhists extremists have committed violent atrocities (Attacks on muslims in...

    "The Innocence of Muslims"

    It seems like a never-ending cycle. People criticize religion for it's violence, and then religious groups respond with more violence.

    "The Innocence of Muslims"

    The low budget film "The innocence of Muslims" has caused an uproar through the Muslim world. The movie was an insult to the Prophet Mohammed, and deeply offended many muslims. As a result several people have been killed. But at the same time many muslims have condemned the violence and said...
