“I couldn't agree more. This was some ugly decade. We were fearful going in about the Y2k, the election of 2000 went on and on, and than terrorists attacks, and than war, and then tons of hurricanes came to get us, than economy fell apart.

We were looking forward to a new decade back in 1999, and new century. Going into 2010 i'm glad i SURVIVED the last 10 years. Good riddance let us move on to brighter days hopefully”

“SNL just wants attention. It's getting destroyed by Daily show and Colbert and they know it. They must go to the extreme stupid level because the writers of SNL haven't won any emmys or respect lately.

I have haven't watched an entire episode of SNL in over 10 years. I am 26 years old and in the key demographic and SNL is irrelevant to me.”

“This really shows how substantial the conservative movement is... NOT.

Instead of having somebody in an office to DO something, they rather have somebody outside throwing stones. Spreading hatred, finger pointing, whining, and fear mongering is more important than actually attempting to fix the problems they cry over.

Crying loud about the milk spilling is more important than actually cleaning up the milk.

They really are a party of babyz

“Obama should change it with a executive order to take effect now. He also needs to get congress involved so that it wouldn't change depending on who is elected in the future”

“Obama has worked a lot harder on getting this law repealed that the Gay community. Those on Huffpo never even know what legislation is pending or if there own congressman is on board. The majority of the military and the public support the repeal, but support will be lost if you allow the evangelicals to turn it into a circus and they will do just that. A hearing is probably not the best idea.”

dizmo4 replied on Nov 21, 2009 at 02:52:08

“So what your saying is that its 100% okay for a President to break the law so long as its a law you don't agree with?

And I guess that means that President Bush was 100% in the right ignoring the constitution since he didn't agree with that, right?

I know its frustrating but the law is what it is. Congress is the institution that the Constitution gives the power to make laws. Congress must be the institution that changes DADT. Pres. Obama cannot do this without violating the law.”

“we don't have the right to judge these people, just like they don't have the right to judge us.

Christianity doesn't not do animal sacrifice which is why so many comments are negative, but Jesus said to not judge people.

Matthew 7:1-3

"Do not judge lest you be judged.

For in the way you judge,
you will be judged;
and by your standard of measure,
it will be measured to you.

And why do you look at the speck
that is in your brother's eye,
but do not notice the log
that is in your own eye?"

I may not agree with the religion or this practice but it's not my place to say my religious views are ' better ' or to judge them . I hope they don't torture the animals and make it as quick of a death as possible an they use the flesh to have a good diner for the entire community and don't waste it, but they have the freedom to practice this tradition and I have no right to judge them.

As much as I may want to judge them and call them savages, it's not christian of me to do that.”

“First of all, there are no supernatural beings so any argument that uses that viewpoint is mute. Kinda like me saying there is a teapot circling the sun and it spoke to me and told me to kill all children in my town. It's not real AND it’s not good.

If we don't judge then we don't learn and grow. If we didn't judge the white racists in the USA then there might still be slavery.

People need to think rationally and intelligently. Belief in a myth gives rise to cruel and inhuman actions that the perpetrators justify with their beliefs.

I can't believe we are still having these discussions today. So many misguided people. Yes, that's my judgment.”

“Not only would judging them be "not Christian of you" but it would also be judging your own God in the process. Animal sacrifice is a constant in the Old Testament and even if you believe your faith no longer requires such actions you can't change the fact the God you worship at one point in our history found animal sacrifice very agreeable.”

“Guess what? I don't care what Jesus said! Killing animals for pleasure is always wrong.”

“So you want to maintain the status quo? Don't judge us and we'll leave you alone to your mass sacrifices? Thats why you should treat all religions the way they deserve to be, like crazy cults.”

“I use a pur water filter in my dorm room. The faucet water is pretty good, the dorm has been around for 40 years so I am not 100% positive the water is as good as a newer dorm so I filter it just in case. I keep a pitcher of cold pur filtered water in my fridge and it's great to come home and have some cold water fresh to drink.

I see so many people at my college just buy dozens and dozens of bottled water, and we recycle in our school but not everyone does.”
