DHI? Dick Heads Incorporated?

I think the idea is that it would eventually render bad cops uninsurable, and thus, unemployable.

Really, though, these are all suggestions to get around the central issue; cops look out for their own, even in the face of blatantly criminal behavior. It's a cultural issue, more than anything.

Car key, house key, mailbox key, office key and my parents house key and a token for shopping karts. There is a USB key on it too, but I never think of it when I need a USB key... That's about it, it's already too heavy with all that crap.

Not being a Christian isn't a provable health hazard. Not being vaccinated is.

Put this another way:
If measles goes through a small town public school with a thousand kids, three of those kids will die. Several will have life-long aftereffects.

If you vaccinate every human being in a large city, *1* will have *some sort* of adverse effect.

If 'reducing possible harm to children' is actually your end goal, there's no way in hell you'd argue against vaccines.

The problem, really, is that there are entire generations who've never seen a playmate die of measles, or have the polio leg braces, or the like.

Sorry, but that's all on the level of pointing out that dihydrogen monoxide is a universal solvent, causes horrible burns in it's gaseous state, induces tissue necrosis in it's solid state, will suffocate you in it's liquid state, and that excessive doses will cause seizures, among other problems.

Yes, this. It seems like the logic here is 'to get a gov't job, you must pass a polygraph test. This man taught people how to skew the results of that test.'

Note that the requirement to get the gov't job isn't 'be truthful and accurate when answering questions about things like criminal history,' but 'pass the polygraph.' Validity of the polygraph doesn't enter into it.

"Here we are, born to be kings, we're the princes of the universe!"

Hey, there's a lot of science and engineering that goes into making a good combat-capable sword.

Ok, but how did it become fashionable to tie an onion to your belt?

Are either of those like Plutonian Niborg?

Well, that's the other issue; historical and cultural context.

"We shall spread the word of our God by the Sword!" -- heard many times in history.

"We shall spread rational inquiry and the scientific method by the Sword!" -- never heard in history, to my knowledge.

The bible is written that way because it is trying to translate Ancient Hebrew and Ancient Greek. You can make a readable translation or an accurate translation to English, but not both.

Correct. Personally, I would hope that, when translating what is purported to be 'instruction manual for avoiding eternal damnation, and methods for right thought and living,' they'd go with 'accurate.' This has, however, been objectively proven not to be the case.

They exist.
