In Texas de rain is deranged.

I like neurotypical's approach better; it at least has some sort of basis in a formal legislative process.

You would rob justice? For the sake of a turkey?

TO every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: 2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; 3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

I'm reminded of Acts 2:44 44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;

Was this pun intended?

Be careful @The Folk Prophet you are coming very close to revealing sacred secrets to the uninitiated here. @Vort will come to know of these things if he ever seeks to become an apprentice.

My thoughts on polyandry.....? I can fully understand why other men would like to marry my wife, she's that kind of woman. Lucky me But understanding is different from agreement.

Here in Australia, today is the last day on which people can register to be included in the same sex postal plebiscite on same sex marriage that will commence in a few weeks time, the results of which will heavily influence how our politicians will vote on the question of whether same sex marriage will be legislated for. The government wanted to ask the question via a national plebiscite, similar to an election, but the Labor Opposition, with help from the Greens and some Independents was able to block that move in the Senate and the national postal vote is seen as the next best option.

If there's uncertainty about the legality, perhaps we need a statute about statues in each State so that the status of their removal will be standardised.

People seemed pretty happy when this statue was taken down - Saddam Hussein in Iraq

Good point, and one worth thinking about. I think its a crucial difference when the killing was done at the behest of a legitimately organised, constitutional, democratically elected government.

I think that this was the truly horrifying part of the shower scene - seeing good chocolate syrup go to waste.

Here in Australia, we take a dim view of people who kill Australians. Speaking as an outsider, I'm surprised that some Americans erected statues to honour those Americans who killed other Americans and I'm surprised that today, there are many Americans who continue to defend such statues. I don't think the context in which the killings took place - a civil war - makes the wholesale slaughter any less bad, and those who oversaw it any less culpable.

I buy two weeks worth of food storage every two weeks. I rotate it over a two week period, and then go out and get another two weeks.

helps to keep the monsters inside

Sounds like it needs to be a multi-purpose app. Better ask someone else to do it.

perhaps that idea of Bishop Gator is not really all that far off?

I can't believe Gator actually said this! Sigh, my respect for your tolerance has taken a nose dive.

Are you trying to make it less so, or more so?

Dear @zil your'e right, this was indeed an unrighteous desire - I'm already married and polygamy is illegal in Australia. However, don't despair - if things change, your number 11,749 on the list.

This is what eternity is for

Answering this would exceed my miniscule knowledge but didnt Einstein conclude that matter and energy are basically the same?

I continue to exist and put up with mortality as a service to humanity

My miniscule understanding of particle physics makes me lean towards the conclusion that particle physics supprts the ex nihilo theory. According to particle physics the entire known universe is completely full of sub-atomic particles continously and spontaneously bursting in and out of existence. And everything in the entire universe is ultimately made up of sub-atomic particles.
