| In developed countries there are growing infertility problems. I think it's now 1 in 6 couples that have trouble getting pregnant. But globally I'm pretty sure humans aren't going to go extinct until the next doomsday date, at the earliest. See, that's why they need to vaccinate all of the third wo... |

| The most entertaining conspiracy theory I've heard is this: Elements of the Bush administration faked 9/11 as an excuse to go to war with Iraq. But for some reason, they decided to implicate a bunch of Saudi Arabians instead of a bunch of Iraqis. And it worked anyway. Maybe one of the conspirators ... |

They are for idiots. And now there are ton of people out there right now saying Sandy Hook was a government conspiracy. It's disgusting. These morons see conspiracy in every f*****g event.

| So who are all these people saying it is an attack on Christianity? Your source cites one random, unknown person, labelled simply as "one football fan", who supposedly had a problem with it. Who is this person and why are they are relevant? WND is a terrible source btw. |

| Capitalism forces people to work for a boss to survive. I can't even run around and pick berrys because all the land around me has been privatized. What about people who start their own businesses or make their living as freelance writers, consultants, repair persons, etc. There were not forced to ... |

| The problem is that economics is a pseudoscience that is treated like a real science. It is closer to an ideology. Right, because I'm sure you've spent a lot of time researching it. Economics is a social science. It's not an ideology, and economists of different ideologies frequently can have meani... |

| Why don't the Israelis just leave if they know they are going to be attacked by Hamas? The same could be asked about many wars where civilians are being killed. Why don't they just leave? It's not that simple. And Israel doesn't necessarily make moving from one place to another easy for Palestinians. |

| In the colloquial sense, evolution is a fact. If you want to get ontological/philosophical, everything can be debated. "There are no whole truths; all truths are half-truths. It is trying to treat them as whole truths that plays the devil." Or as the guy in your av said: We can't define anything pre... |

An intelligence like that could create and control entire universes with ease. No matter how advanced something physical is, it still has to obey the laws of physics. Take a look... |

| And does anyone else think that many Muslim/Arab leaders don't want the Israeli "problem" to go away? Israel is a perfect scapegoat; a perfect target to direct all the angst and fury of the Arab world at. Without Israel, muslim populations would turn on the real people causing their problems: their ... |

| Yeah, it seems like most of these anti-Israel nuts I encounter are not Muslims, but white people from the West. I can understand Muslims from the Mideast hating Jews, I don't condone it, but I can understand it. |

Doing so brings us to the inescapable conclusion that the universe will eventually be nothing more than an infinite haze of sub-atomic particles once all matter has decayed, including black ho... |
