But...but...where will we get future cops and politicians from, if there are no more government-indoctrinated violent and aggressive brain-damaged.individuals being turned out by schools?
The kids who were given the choice of jail or the marines are a likely source.
While soccer (football to the rest of the world) probably has less of a problem, it is still a potentially serious issue. Better suggest golf next time. Or Dungeon and Dragons.
You've obviously never seen me try to golf then. The only safe place is the middle of the fairway.
I just don't see why our elected officials should assist them at our expense.
Because reelection campaigns cost a lot of money these days.
Nope. Common carriers can be held repsonsible for turning a blind eye to illegal traffic.
Indictment != Conviction
Indeed - the page actually mentions the rhythm method, the Catholic's favoured method.
Someone please help me understand. How is the rhythm method not a form of contraception and as such just as much a sin as any other method of contraception?
We let people determine what can be taught. Very few people are free of ideologies, whether they be religious or secular. Find me a living, breathing human being who has no personal biases, and I'll ask the doctors why a patient with absolutely no higher brain function hasn't been taken off life support.
One of the things that we, as conscious human beings, should do is strive to recognize the lenses through which we view reality. Yes, everyone has personal biases but it is possible to understand those biases, examine decisions that you are making and recognize their influence on your decision making process. This allows us to make more objective decisions. If someone is not able to do this then IMHO they should not be in a position to make decisions that have significant influence over other people, such as judges or educators.
The funny thing is that I bet the actual religious authority of the Roman Catholic Church wouldn't agree with this sort of censorship.
Given the church's history of censoring other viewpoints in the past, I'm going to respectfully disagree with you.
So according to the schoolboard, contraception == abortion.
The page in question also contains a reference to a "morning after" pill which would be considered abortion. That was used as the justification, but according to the article the whole page on contraception offended the school board member.
Use this greasemonkey script to hide Bennett's shit from the main (and "older") pages. http://pastebin.com/RWCxT0jJ
(I disable it once in a while to check for his shit so I can tell people about the script.)
If we ever meet IRL I owe you at least one beer for this!!
If it went to trial, we *would* know all the facts.
I take it you've never been involved in a criminal trial. The jury will only know the facts that are presented at trial. This is almost always a subset, sometimes a substantial one, of "all the facts".
Come on, there's an arbitrary number of formulas that could be used to encode the next bit. If you look at a sequence 1 3 5 7 and ask what's the next number most people would answer 9. Then the answer is "11, because it's the odd numbers excluding squares like 3*3 = 9" and people would go "How the f*ck should I know that?" and there's no analytic function that says how "weird" your formula is. You're just making a guess of how long it'd take before someone tries a formula like this, it could be in five minutes or fifty years.
No, people would then ask "Why is 1 in the list then since 1*1 = 1?"
A lack of sufficient auditing capability is what has kept CACert out of most browser CA bundles.
Which is laughable considering some of the other CAs that are included.
Who is Dustin Curtis, and which multibillion dollar company did he found?
Exactly. The article is nothing more than a glorified facebook post by some unknown. WTF it is doing on Slashdot is anybody's guess. This is a new low.
PURGE COMPLETE.
