Well the bomb would have more offensive potential, though he could use the argument that the bomb constitutes part of national 'defense', which would make it a deterrent rather than an offensive weapon.

Attempts by evangelical pop Christianity to modernize Jesus and make him "trendy" & "cool" to intellectually vulnerable youth disgusts me quite a bit.

I voted 3 also, since you left out a lot of options in a question not lending itself to boolean logic.


You've presented three people, J, M, and B, and three attachments, r, b, and d.

The possibilities are: Jr, Jb, Jd, Mr, Mb, Md, Br, Bb, and Bd. So, of these nine choices you've provided only three as options.

Well, actually, my words of wisdom did not apply to the issue of diet soda. I mean, to be frank, I agree that diet soda kind of sucks. I only drink it because my current work allows me easy access to soda to the point where I'd gain 400 pounds if all I drank was regular soda.

Well, in all honesty the main reason I drink Diet Soda is because I have Type I (autoimmune) Diabetes.

Look, all I'm saying is just that the teachings of our lord and Messiah, Charles Darwin, need to be put in practice in human society. :P :wink:

I voted the third option because the Buddha would never be seen consuming such a toxic mess.
