    Would you vote for an Atheist?

    I would have no problem voting for an atheist, a Christian, a Muslim or a Buddhist. I don't care about the religious views of politicians as long as they don't mess them up with their politics.

    Gays in the Military

    I think the reason for the military capability of the US is the funding, not DADT ;)

    Gays in the Military

    Allowing gays to serve openly is not an experiment. They're already doing it in Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bermuda, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, The Netherlands, New...

    Should High School choir sing at Non-Denominational Prayer Service for Senior Class?

    Re: Should High School choir sing at Non-Denominational Prayer Service for Senior Cla As long as the event is not organised by the school, as long as nobody are required to show up and as long as it is just the choir members themselves who agree to hold the event I see no problem with it. I...

    Should a Christian school be allowed to fire a teacher for fornication?

    Many employers have the arrogant belief that they own their employees and can demand anything from them just because they give them a pay check every month. This case is an example of this. Any decent labour laws would make a firing like this illegal since it is not the business of an employer...

    Do you own or someone in your household own a firearm?

    No. I don't want that kind of things in my house, especially now when me and my girlfriend are expecting our first child. Firearms belong in the hands of police officers, the military and hunters - not amateurs like me who has no use for them.

    Lifting the Gaza Blockade: Practical Issues

    Because the other two thirds voted for someone else or stayed at home. If you country was being occupied I don't think you would try to overthrow your government if it was the only major force fighting the occupation. This is unclear as the struggle between Hamas and Fatah makes it...

    Lifting the Gaza Blockade: Practical Issues

    44,45 % of the Palestinians voted for Hamas with a turnout of 74,6 %. Thus only roughly a third of the adult Palestinians voted for Hamas. What about the other two thirds who did not "vote war on themselves"?

    I'm appalled. Policeman discriminated against.

    I can't see why it was necessary to ask the police officer to leave. He was just a guy grabbing a cup of coffee, whether you're anarchist or not you have to distinguish between the police and they individual police officer. No matter what your political affiliation is you have to learn to get...

    Ending 'don't ask, don't tell' would undermine religious liberty

    Exactly how is ending DADT and normalising conditions for gay members of the military going to make the music sound wrong? Every other Western country allows gays in the military without the music sounding differently.

    Logical argument against Gay Marriage

    The law already recognizes privileges (or rather, establishes a state of law) that are not available to everyone. Driver's licenses are only available to those capable of passing a driving test, child protection laws only protects children and only people with diseases can get prescription...

    Lifting the Gaza Blockade: Practical Issues

    I'm sorry but I've never heard of the hordes of ginger and chocolate terrorists who kill civilian Israelis by feeding them cakes and pralines until their arteries burst. ;) Could it be that the reason for banning a lot of these goods are not purely military in nature? You are right. Since...

    Lifting the Gaza Blockade: Practical Issues

    If the purpose was not to punish Palestinians they would not care about harmless goods like chocolate. From a military point of view it is completely insane to spend time and energy preventing Palestinians from importing ginger. They did not provide Israel with the kind of government Israel...

    I support Israel, and you?

    I support the people of Israel and Palestine equally. It is their leaders that I have a problem with; there are no "good guys" in the Israel/Palestine game, only crooks. It is in the interest of everyone outside of the ruling classes to have peace for both peoples.

    Lifting the Gaza Blockade: Practical Issues

    The constantly and arbitrary changes to the list of banned goods only serves to make the blockade harder on Palestinians as they can never be sure that their goods will go through the Israeli occupation authorities. How can ginger, chocolate and shoes be used for terrorism? The answer is...
