Any ideas?

Are you looking for things mostly focused on political philosophy?
I wished to know the meaning of things. I am the meaning. I wished to find a warrant for being. I need no warrant for being and no word of sanction upon my being. I am the warrant and the sanction.

If Communism is the workers’ paradise
Why did communism kill 100 million workers?



If life can only be explained by an Intelligent Designer
Who designed the Intelligent Designer?



If people think money is the root of all evil
Why do they want the government to give it to them?



If judging someone by the color of their skin is wrong
Why does affirmative action judge people by the color of their skin?



If sex is a sin
Why do those people think about it so much?




If the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few
Why are the people who say that always the “many”?



If people think sacrifice is a virtueWhy do they expect you to be the virtuous one?



If love is selfless
Why do Valentine Cards tell someone how important they are to you?


How do people know they don’t have freewill
If they were never given a chance to decide for themselves?



If you need a picture to make you think critically
You probably have the government you deserve.


(Sorry, couldn't resist the last one) :P

There actually already is a Philosoraptor similar to one of those.

If money is the root of all evil
Why do they ask for it in church?

Good to know. I honestly never looked it up.

I just thought about some things and had some fun with it.

I don't like this last one, as critical thinking is not a skill that comes naturally to anyone.

Yes. But anything pro-reason/anti-unreason will do.

Your right. On off days I get negative against the mess of today's world and loose patience.

Another ten years I'll likely become Objectivism’s version of the cranky old neighbor that tells the kids what things were like when men wanted to be men instead of cream puffs that occupy random locations.
