Educate yourself.

I saw 300 and I have to say the atrocities the Persian's commit on a daily basis are unholy and deserve our Christian justice.

I won't concede the statement that 'the vast majority of Christians are for GM foods', but since neither of us is likely to have data supporting either of our positions, it's a waste of time to argue.

I am willing to concede that there are differing viewpoints throughout the various denominations however. Being an agnostic in the middle of the Bible Belt offers firsthand evidence at how some Christian viewpoints, even viewpoints from a minority, permeate the barriers of secular institutions, and allow stereotypes to thrive.

If that's the case you must not be around many Christians. Or you aren't listening to them, which is probably a smart move on your part.

If you're talking about racial demographics of the US Army, there you go. 61% of enlisted personnel are white. I'd have to assume the percentage of casualties remains in the vicinity.

Of course, you could be referring the targets of the US military, in which case I'd make the argument that any cross-culture military conflict could be misconstrued as a race war.

I missed that lesson in history class. The one where the Roman Legions are beset by the whip-wielding Visigoth horde. On a side note, I'm pretty sure whips are only effective against Dracula and Nazis.

SWG may be still kicking, but it's lying in a pool of it's own blood, gurgling, hoping someone passes by to give it a coup de grÃce.

I was rather disappointed he did not run for the vacant Senator position. He's the closest thing we've had to a traditional Republican: budget surplus, decreased government size, repaying of debts. Using today's standards, we're just lucky if our governor doesn't end up behind bars.

Who also happens to be the last decent Governor of Illinois.

As a practical person, I prefer my car to be efficient in its abilities to get me to places I want to go, and its ability to not be a burden on my wallet. Ill trade 'interesting' for that any day.

I'm going out on a limb that he was kidding. He found Slashdot.

I'm not sure I'd want my city associated with sixteen straight years of losing seasons.

About to outnerd you, but it was Paul's son Leto II who turned into the worm. Paul was the blind Prophet who got knifed by his sister's guards.
