Did anyone watch 60 Minutes tonight? Carl Rove should be imprisioned.
by dawg inok, so we know for a fact the bush administration lied us into a war in which we never should have engaged.
we know they fix scientific data to meet the needs of the special interest groups who make up their constituency.
but did you know the bush team, lead by carl rove, fixed it so a governor would go to jail?...

Those were meant as generalizing quotes; I'm sorry if I seemed to be attributing that sentiment to you. You're right. Singleman does not deserve what has happened to him. I was just questioning the use of prison as the default solution to social problems. The prison system in this country has gotten completely out of hand. I don't think financial, political, or health/drug crimes are properly addressed by imprisonment. But it's all terribly complex, and I don't see an obvious solution.

Dawg,
No. I'm not kidding. I understand the desire to punish people for doing wrong; the desire is very much present in me. But I have as of late been trying to pause and analyze my desires. Retributive punishments seem to perpetuate cycles of violence. I'm not denying the concepts of personal agency and responsibility; Rove should not be given power since he has demonstrated a tendency to abuse it. But this idea of hurting people, of stealing years from their life, is an idea that I think is worth questioning. The notion of "punishment" is not a very healthy one; or, maybe it would be better to say it's not as mature as I would like in an ideal world. Animals bite if they are bitten; children hit back if they are struck. I think we can do better. If by "punishment" we clearly meant "reform", "cure", or at least "modification of one's social status to better correspond to the area of activity in which one can be trusted", I would not have the reservations I do. I'm not saying I have any clear notion of how to resolve many of the doubts I have about our justice system. But I am rather certain the answers to our problems will be more complex than "Throw the bastards in jail!" or "Kill them all!" I feel like this approach more often attacks the symptoms of our social problems without addressing the root causes, the flaws in the very foundation of our society. -

You want to imprison Rove for having this governor imprisoned. It seems to me that our use of the judicial system to satisfy a desire for revenge is unhealthy. I agree that some of the people who are in prison need to be locked away because they are sociopaths, rapists, and molesters, and are consequently dangerous in a way that cannot at this point be healed. But many of the people who are in prison would not have been in prison if our society did not have certain basic flaws (access to education, basic necessities, an environment that empowers its members instead of filling them with a sense of victimization, racism, sexism, etc.), and the prison system does little to solve these basic problems. In many ways, it perpetuates and intensifies them by continuing to marginalize these people.

I just got a strange message from someone named Tula, who seems to take seriously the claims about monatomic gold and the Illuminati. I told her I'd pass her warning on to the rest of you. She states:
I saw your post on the "gold formula". Here is some info you might find useful. I would have posted it in your thread, but I am banned from posting on the board now. I think this is important precautionary info:
Precautionary note from Ken Adachi:
[Readers should be aware that Anna Hayes mentions in her books that taking mono atomic gold is ultimately harmful. She claims that the initial growth of psychic awareness is not permanent, but rather levels off and later declines. Further, she says that the promotion of mono atomic gold is an Illuminati deception. While attracting the public with sugar plums of enhanced psychic clarity and improved health, the ulterior purpose of promoting mono atomic gold is to cause the destruction of the ten additional virtual DNA strands which all humans possess and which are now manifesting into 3D reality as seen with the 3, 4, or even 5 strands of DNA that now show up in the blood of Blue Indigo (Millennium) children.
The destruction of the ten virtual DNA strands (unseen with 3rd dimension microscopes, but nevertheless still there in the higher 4th dimensional vibratory plane) prevents a human from activating these higher dimensional DNA strands and prevents access to higher spiritual awareness and telepathic abilities, as humans and mother Earth gradually increase our base vibratory frequency and ascend into the fourth dimension (a process that began in 1987 and will likely reach completion somewhere between 2018 and 2025). The activation of more than two strands of DNA is apparently necessary to exist in physical form in the fourth dimension. So now, the hidden purpose behind the promotion of mono atomic gold is perhaps becoming more evident: the Illuminati, the militarists, the satanists, the corrupt politicians, etc., and all those who serve the Dark Master, Lucifer, will not be allowed to reincarnate on a fourth dimensional Earth.
Thus, being confined to the 3rd dimension, the Illuminati wishes to keep their human slaves with them and not lose them to the joy, peace, and freedom of a higher dimensional Earth. When you consider that Sir Laurence Gardner, a high Illuminati insider (and full blooded Reptilian) has been continuously touting the glories of mono atomic gold in every radio interview show he's appeared on for the past few years (along with William Henry), you have to ask yourself, "should I embrace the recommendations of a satanist and high Illuminati front man or should I be running in the opposite direction as fast as I can?"]

Note that the miracle drug is somehow connected with David Icke, the anti-Semite who believes the world is ruled by a secret group called the "Global Elite" or "Illuminati." The Illuminati are a race of reptilian humanoids known as the Babylonian Brotherhood, and many prominent figures are reptilian, including George W. Bush, the Clintons, and Queen Elizabeth II.

My thoughts exactly. Not quite as fun as the Electronic Radio Biola, but it will do in a pinch.

those zany Fundies and their dragons!
by veradico inthought you all might enjoy this: http://objectiveministries.org/creation/pterosaurs.html .
you see, part of the "evidence" for a young earth is the "fact" that humans created stories about dragons.
like the ubiquity of the flood myth ("how could so many cultures have the same story without its being historical?

I think the site is meant as a joke, but it is, as you know, based on real claims of young-earthers (http://hauns.com/~DCQu4E5g/Fire.htm). You are probably right, of course. Huge bones and the human imagination are probably sufficient explanations for the dragon myths. Also, you know better than many how vivid images can travel from culture to culture. And there's always the Jungian archetype.

Like the ubiquity of the Flood myth ("How could so many cultures have the same story without its being historical?"), the many examples of stories containing dragons are pointed to as evidence of man's having lived alongside the dinosaurs.
