All these things MAY be true, but the difference between "homophiliacs" and "pedophiliacs" is that the homo type is only legal between consenting individuals, and with the pedo type, children by definition can't consent to sexual activity. Pedophilia MAY be "normal" but statutory rape is still rape...

NASA seems to have that effect. Which is why the SLS is a total waste of money, a point that I have been trying to make earlier... Imagine if NASA had just continued to properly fund the Delta Clipper instead of the wastly more ambitious X33! We would probably have routine access to LEO with an SST...

a) quantify the number of people on hard drugs, and the costs, not just to health and life, but economically, and collaterally to family members b) quantify how much of (a) is due to prohibition and how much is due to the impact of the drugs themselves (and this varies from drug to drug, LSD is far...

They'd have had to do much the same thing at 100%. It's effectively an arbitrary reference point; observed real-world behaviour trumps "design specs". Beyond 104.5%, yes, things start to get more risky... With the Block III, the engine internals would have been monitored closely enough that disasse...

Seems that world wide, the NATURAL average birth ratio is about 1.05 m/f. There are a FEW countries that seem to be selectively aborting females and have a significantly higher ratio. But in a large number of countries, despite a normal BIRTH ratio, and even a reletively normal teen ratio, the adul...

Why now is because, well, Greenies are watermelons. Green on the outside, and red on the inside... Yeah, that is what I say. Kinda confusing in the US though, where red for some reason is associated with the republicans. That was switched in 2000 election by the MSM cause the dems were tired of bei...

Doesn't seem like the most efficient use of said money, but the last pat down I got was fairly thorough. The president that privatizes TSA orgs which inturn leaves open the door to an airport choosing to save money by cutting corners, which results in an air bombing would get the boot real fast. Th...

.... the credible, unconfirmed reports are that Al Qaeda is planning something ...... I might be wrong, but it looks to me just a way to cover one's responsibilities in case something will really happen. I do not count anymore the times that these type of alarms have been made in the last 10 years....

Could you try using a less biased source? I've noticed both sides tend to skew the figures to how they want it to be seen. It's the death-panels rhetoric all over again. I happen to believe that we have reached a point in our society where it isn't possible to be right wing enough. The Nation has m...

What you're dropping is incomplete data. I could link graphs/charts pointing out job growth in Texas, but you wouldn't be getting the real picture. The graph would likely not mention that a majority of those jobs are minimum-wage or that they carry no benefits. Scott, you dont know whether the Il l...

A planet whose industry depends on burning coal is no threat. As long as they see pollution in the atmosphere they know we're too backwards to be dangerous. Cleaning up the air is the problem. They would assume that means we perfected nuclear, most likely fusion, and will be on our way shortly. The...

My personal stance is that the whole "war on drugs" is just pure nonsense. Liberalizing light drugs will not bring society on the verge of destruction like many are claiming, and we have many countries where weed is legal that can easily prove this point. And this is coming from a person that never...
