Simple Rationality

"If god is all knowing, he knows what he would have to do to make me believe he exists, and he would know that what he has shown so far isn't good enough for me.

If god is all powerful, he would be able to do it.

And if god is all good, he would want me to believe in him, especially if he condemns me to eternal torture for the petty crime of not believing without adequate evidence.

If god wants me to believe, he will have to give me a reason to.

Since he hasn't, I conclude he doesn't exist.

And if he punishes me because he wouldn't show himself to me, then he is guilty for my punishment."
-Stephen F. Roberts

I wonder if the concept of "equal protection" is also near and dear to her heart.

Is there such thing as a reverse hate crime? Maybe I should talk one of my gay friends into finding out.

Some people are beautiful on the outside, yet devoid inside. She is 21, what does she know about marriage anyway?!?! What an embarrassment to be from the same city.

Don't be so "ageist" Amanda. She at least came across as well-spoken. and Hot. and she is entitled to her opinion, isn't she?
Perez Hilton is 31 and gay...so one could say "what does HE know about marriage" ;)
I personally am for gay marriage as I think ALL people should have equal access to the drudgery and ennui that is that institution.

Perez Hilton would know more about marriage if he was allowed to get married! And of course this girl is "hot". Duh, she is Miss California after all. But using her fame and beauty to *crusade* against a cause like that, it's distasteful. She is supposed to represent CA. And she is an embarrassment to those MANY of us who strongly disagree with her.

Kevin

you find it distasteful because you disagree. What about all the "stars" who use their fame and beauty to crusade for what YOU agree with. Is that distasteful as well? ;)

Amanda

Yes, I guess it's distasteful because I disagree. But adding insult to injury, she is supposed to represent our state. And she didn't even attempt to. So she sucks! ha ha

Jennifer

Well, sad but true fact Amanda is that she does represent part of your state otherwise Prop 8 wouldn't have passed. I hate it as much as you do, but it's true.

Dinah

She wasn't crusading...she was asked a stupid question at a bikini festival and gave an honest answer. Perez knew she had graduated from a Christian university. It was a sneaky set-up.

What bugs me is that now she is playing the "victim role". If she really believes in her answer she should suck it up and not complain about being a loser. It's always easy to have an opinion on an issue that doesn't affect you. I wonder how she would feel if we started passing laws against people who have had breast augmentation surgery?

May 3 at 12:46pm

Kevin

Wow you people are brutal in your ad hominem attacks. Can't you disagree with her without attacking her? No wonder we cannot have a civilized debate on any topic in this country.

The 2 Party System

Thoughts while standing in line to vote:
---------------------------------------------
Since Obama's redistribution of wealth scheme troubles and affects me, I got a problem with that.
Since McCain wants to stay in other countries, I got a problem with that.
Biden is still a moron; and Palin is a frightening moron.
Since I don't want to live in a Theocracy, I got a problem with Palin.
Since I don't want to live in a Marxist Oligarchy, I got a problem with Obama.

See my dilemma? It's really hard to be a true moderate in a 2 party system.

Though apparently, according to the media, I'm just wasting my time standing in line as it is a fait accompli.

Last 2 elections I voted Libertarian. Will do so again so I can maintain my "better-than-thou" attitude ;)
