  1. LOL, I laughed at loud at that. And this pope is incredibly and annoyingly altruistic.
  2. Interestingly enough though, the concept of altruistic self-sacrifice couldn't be any more concrete. We should all give our organs out of charity, not look at it as something that has value to someone else.
  3. I actually forgot to get a stamp for my app before the deadline, but I actually don't feel like I missed on anything. I may have written in "John Galt" if I had voted, though.
  4. The woman has brains, she just got a sh*tty treatment by the press and the McCain campaign. She's not dumb, it's an image issue coupled with the fact that she has never been on the national stage. Someone should slip her a copy of TF or AS though.
  5. I think the labor standard is a much better objective measure about the value of money. Whenever I make a decision about buying something, I think about it in terms of how many hours I had to afford it. Although I realize the difference here, yes, money should have some actual value than just being a piece of paper taped to the end of a gun.
  6. It reminds me of an Ayn Rand quote: "It is futile to fight against, when one does not know what one is fighting for." You hit the nail on the head though, the problem with the "new atheists" is that they don't understand that not only is religion bad because it promotes the existence of that which does not exist, but it uses that as a reason for followers to sacrifice themselves.
  7. I may pitch this idea to them and let them have it, but they need to convert the Facebook group into a fan page. Then they can send updates (that don't come as annoying messages) to users and work it as a fundraising tool, and to spread updates, etc.
  8. An interesting thought- Christians created Jesus as a messiah in order to try and bring the concept of god to an understandable form.
  9. If Brad Pitt wants a role, he would make a perfect Ragnar Danneskjöld. Also, what about Chris Cooper as Atkson? Or Stadler?
  10. Dance pop. Ace of Base, Britney Spears, and Katy Perry are my faves. Takes one to know one, eh? I kid, I kid, I just couldn't resist.
  11. This reminds me of what happened to Britney Spears. God I love that woman. Well, I know they're not the same woman, but still
  12. Hahaha, nice. Welcome to the forum! Oh, and as an icebreaker, favorite animal sound?
  13. Does anyone else see the delicious irony in that?
  14. It depends on the style of the hair and the chick. Some can pull it off, others just can't.
  15. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/conte...3002217_pf.html Related?
  16. After reading Atlas Shrugged, I actually decided that I didn't want to major in Political Science and wanted to become a writer instead. I'm changing my major this week.
  17. Hahah, who says people want to donate?
  18. The burden of proof falls on the people who claim something exists that can't be seen.
