    Sexuality forum, ignore listing mods

    I'm all for reasoned debate, but there is a rule in religion forum for instance that disallows even criticizing religion, something I notice Goshen likes to remind us of. There is no such rule in sexuality forum though, and in addition to not being able to ignore list mods, it just gives massive...

    Student Loans Defaulting at Historic Highs

    Yeah, those complaints aren't very compatible. A lot of these foreigners are actually exchange students who come for a semester. In any case, even if a green card were attached to the diploma, it's not clear to me even a majority would choose to stay and be productive. Maybe 15 years ago they...

    California bans "gay cure" therapies.

    Well, this looks familiar. You don't get it and you're letting your prejudice show. It's not voluntary if done to minors, period. It has to be banned the way kids need to protected from other kinds of abuse. Also, the state banning the so-called treatment sends a message that will deter...

    Can an Atheist and Christian Be Friends?

    I was too young to remember this, but I've heard that they only became hated by the mainstream after they went after soldiers. Then of course the celebrating 9/11 pissed everyone off. When they were out there picketing all these other funerals, with the notable exception of Matt Shephard, there...

    Can an Atheist and Christian Be Friends?

    Well let's distinguish between the "Christian" who rarely if ever goes to church and pays no attention at all to the NT, and one of those raging fundamentalists who has all day to stand in a spot with a "You deserve Hell" sign and rave about how when she was a bad girl she used to dance to...

    Post death experiences.

    NP. There's a book called "DMT: the spirit molecule" iirc. This guy a while back went thru quite a lot just to get approval for the study, had the volunteers take the drug in a hospital and documented their reactions. It's also legal and grows in nature in places like S America. Maybe we should...

    102-Year-Old Gets A Full-Ride Scholarship To The University Of Michigan

    Sorry, but you don't go to this school I'm guessing. They give out 1000 scholarships to athletes every year, most of whom are barely literate and as Harbaugh said, no one wants to hire them. Will you complain about that now? They give a full ride to in state students in need with their endowment...

    High School Drop Out Age - How Old

    I'm a huge proponent of home schooling. If we can't make schools safe and worthwhile in terms of actual learning going on, shut them down or remove the drop out age altogether.

    The College Rankings Racket

    Yeah these are severely biased against public schools for starters. Not that many are stellar by any means, but the real problem is how seriously parents take this crap. I heard of one who said "You're only a 14?!" when their kid got into Northwestern but not Stanford...It's just a for-profit...

    Student Loans Defaulting at Historic Highs

    A great many of those waiting tables are doing it temporarily. My brother for example managed a gas station for a year, then found a marketing gig. Would a high school dropout have the job he has now? Even those waiter jobs, for reasons I don't get, seem easier to land if you have the degree. I...

    Student Loans Defaulting at Historic Highs

    Overvalued by whose estimation? I guess we don't need doctors, nurses, accountants, lawyers etc. Well, maybe not lawyers. Just glad i went for free, and so did most of my friends...well, more like their parents paid for it. I do see the bubble bursting soon, but it will definitely hit the...

    Post death experiences.

    It's not so much this as are there alternative explanations. I'm not denying that there's *something* going on during NDE, but is it proof of a genuine afterlife? That they're so culturally bound is also highly suspicious. In any case, there's certainly a big leap between a spirit world of some...

    Hong Kong Billionaire Offers $65 Million To Any Man Who Can Woo His Gay Daughter

    Don't bother trying to reason with tigger on parental rights. He's even supported beating up 5 year olds to turn them straight. How do such dumbasses become so filthy rich? Even I'll "woo" his daughter and divorce later for that kinda $

    Fear of Homosexuality

    A straight guy's appearance on a daily basis is just not as big a deal as it is for women. There's no reason for him to go around complimenting or even noticing another guy's looks all the time.

    How often do you compliment the other candidate?

    I almost never compliment any candidate. They're politicians and hardly anything impresses or surprises me these days anyway. I might say something not at all related to his job like "He's an excellent teleprompter reader. Wish i can do that in front of 400k people."
