Let's not forget the fact that you are not electing shit (when it comes to the presidency).

If we really wanted to change things, the first thing that needs to go is the electoral college.

I don't have much to say in regards to conjecture about what he saw (or did not see) but I am sorry for your loss, and it is good that you were there to be with him for it and I thank you for not (based on what you said anyway) being selfish and refusing to let go. If only more people could do that.

I watched my grandfather refuse to let my grandmother go. Her passing took a full week, and it was painful. If he had let her go, it would have been quick and quiet.

Yes, you certainly have digressed. Fictional origin of the quote aside, I would agree with you (and said character). If you believe it acceptable, you should be willing to carry it out yourself.

I would be. You seem to forget how seriously such cases are weighed. Courts do not take a flippant attitude when it comes to execution. We don't live in medieval France anymore.

Whatever this "DMT" thing you speak of is, I think you've been smoking a bit too much of it.

So an exorcist is really just... tech support?

Tell me - when did that ever matter?

It comes down to moral arithmetic.

Obviously doing it for no reason would be wrong, but as soon as there is some benefit to it it becomes a much more complex question. There is no right answer.

I seem to recall that one particular executed prisoner agreed to help study this. The arrangement was that the executed would continue to blink as long as possible, while an observer marked the time.

I wish I could remember any more detail than that.

OK then. You're just wired differently. So long as you got it looked at.

It's not that we don't believe you, it's just that such "asexuality" is often a symptom of something Bad happening.

Oi, Microsoft! You're doing it wrong!

I don't much care why he did what he did, we need to see what he let us see.

I can't worry about both?

It seems to me, as an outsider, that Halal seems much less arbitrary there.

Never. Ever. Do. This.

The moment you do this you lose any moral ground you had, which is all you have if the law doesn't support you.

Pretty much, yes. Unless you think you can correct the people/media of course. I think that's an uphill battle, to be honest.
