Dr T Posted January 18, 2007 Author Report Posted January 18, 2007 Crime Victims Need Notification - headline, Paris (Texas) News, Jan. 16 What would that look like? I know, maybe a sticker that says, "This is to inform you that you have be held up by a small silver gun and your purse was stolen!" can be put on the victim's forehead after the crime. That or a letter can be sent to the victim's home. After all, in purse snatching cases they would likely have the victim's home address from the victim's drivers license. Which would you prefer?=== Amnesia Is Worse Than Thought - headline, United Press International, Jan. 16 Now I'd have to agree that thought is often bad, but sometimes amnesia can erase all those bad thoughts-is that such a bad thing?

Dr T Posted February 2, 2007 Author Report Posted February 2, 2007 PARIS — The world's leading climate scientists, in their most powerful language ever used on the issue, said global warming is "very likely" man-made. That is the "most powerful language ever used on the issue?" So previously, it has been "probably man-made"? Quote

Dr T Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Posted February 23, 2007 From this website: http://www.vhemt.org/ come the following excerpts. mom_of_jcchlsm gets full credit for pulled them off that site:She said,So this is the quote from their site that gets me:"Is sexual intercourse really the primary cause of human reproduction?"oh wait! it gets better!quote from their site:Q: Does VHEMT favor abortion?Only when someone is pregnant.and Seriously though, pregnancy should be prevented whenever possible. Unwanted pregnancy is the cause of almost all abortions, and VHEMT certainly doesn't favor unwanted pregnancy.The Movement doesn't even favor wanted pregnancies. Unfortunately, accidental conceptions still happen, so an available and safe safety net is essential for the well-being of girls and women. Criminalizing abortions has never prevented them from being performed, it just makes them unsafe: illegal abortions cause an estimated 78,000 to 80,000 deaths each year.So, I'm confused. I thought they wanted to get rid of people. Why not make abortions illegal so more people die having them, then?Those are great mom_of_jcchlsm! Thank you Quote

Dr T Posted March 22, 2007 Author Report Posted March 22, 2007 SISTERS, Ore. — During his eight days as a part-time high school biology teacher, Kris Helphinstine included Biblical references in material he provided to students and gave a PowerPoint presentation that made links between evolution, Nazi Germany and Planned Parenthood. "Critical thinking is vital to scientific inquiry," said Helphinstine, who has a master's degree in science from Oregon State. "My whole purpose was to give accurate information and to get them thinking." What!? Get them thinking? Why on earth would he want to do that? What is he a teacher or something?Parent John Rahm told the newspaper that he became concerned when his freshman daughter said she was confused by the supplemental material provided by Helphinstine. Right; students should never be confused by two sides of any issue. Foxnews.com Quote

Elphaba Posted July 14, 2007 Report Posted July 14, 2007 Peace Leader Would 'Love' To Kill President Bush Even in jest, that is not a very peaceful message.Hi Dr. T,Later in the article:"At a press conference, Williams expressed regret over her choice of words. Her supporters point to her life's work as an advocate for children worldwide. They chalked up her comments to her passion and love for those suffering due to U.S. actions. "I watch the war closely, and I cry every day. IMO, the horror just wasn't worth it. So many of us want it to STOP!, and Bush is just not going to do that. The frustration I feel is so strong, I can see myself saying "I could just kill that man!" But I don't mean it literally. It's a turn of phrase when you're furious with someone, and it's not that uncommon.However, I do not condone what she said, especially in a public forum.Elphie Quote
