Climate Change - Those Hacked E-mails
Global warming is so obvious that it pains me to have to argue its fact.
That isn't the area of contention, the question is whether it is man-made or not (aka is C02 to blame)

Your definition of living wage, I'm guessing, includes healthcare and entertainment, if not more - am I right? I agree anyone can define a phrase to mean anything, but you can't re-define what it means to be alive. So...I think I'll stick with the biological definition rather than the political one.
The 49 Films That Will Define 2010 (Cinema Talk Post)
That's a pretty decent list -- the only thing I can think of off the top of my head that's missing is Centurion, Neil Marshall's newest film (he directed The Descent, which was one of the best horror films of the decade.
of all time! That movie scared the shit out of me. To date its still my favorite horror movie by far.

You all realize that this man didn't kill, rape, molest, or even touch a kid right? All he did was take a hard drive which he owns, and program a series of 1's and 0's into it.
Taking a picture isn't illegal (freedom of the press?). However, abducting a kid, forcing them to strip in your house...etc...well that would be illegal and those 1s and 0s would then become evidence. Heres where you argument is wrong: you are at a baseball game filming the next batter, and all of a sudden a streaker runs out on the field. You later find out he was 17 and now you are a pedophile. Sorry but taking pictures isn't (shouldn't be) a crime.
Why do you think its legal for parents to take naked pictures of their babies in the bathub?
"in short the only time something should be illegal is if it dose significant harm to others and yourself or takes away others or your own basic freedoms. "
I agree with you 100% here, but I don't see how that is consistent with what you are saying above. Arresting someone for their contents of their hard drive is like making it illegal to draw or write certain phrases or pictures on your own paper, with your own ink. Theres really just no way such a law wouldn't be a human rights violation.

franklin was a skeptic, an atheist with respect to christianity, and a deist for a lack of something better to believe in.
undoubtedly franklin would be a proper athiest, had he lived after darwin's origin of species, dont you think?

go and look up "living wage" and educate yourself before you...
To live means to have a minimum of food and water, and at most geographical locations, shelter and clothing too. A living wage then, means "a wage which affords oneself adequate food, water, clothing, and shelter to sustain life."
What you are describing isn't a living wage its a "comfortable wage." I'm sorry but like most people in a 1st world country, you just don't understand what it means to be alive. When you think "life" you don't think "breath," you think "entertainment."
If what you are saying is true, then it is physically impossible for anyone in the US to live (food water shelter clothing) on $1256 a month ($42) a day. This is clearly bullshit as I can go to www.hotels.com and find a room with free all-you-can-eat continental breakfast for $40 in almost every city in America...even NY and LA. Food, water, shower, heat, electricity, wi-fi, television, laundry, fresh sheets and towels, soap, shampoo, all of it for $40 a night.
So sorry, but Motel 6 is living proof what you say just isn't true. And...assuming that the folks at Motel 6 aren't a bunch of life-hugging hippies, and are actually in business to turn a profit - it seems obvious that the average person could live for much less than $40 a day.

If you're cooking, you need a car to efficiently ferry groceries from bigbox stores that are typically built several miles from residential areas, or else pay a 50% premium (on average) to get groceries from closer small-scale inefficient stores.
I can carry eight bags of groceries on my motorcycle - two handlebars, a backpack, a tank bag, and a box on the passenger seat
But I rarely see the need to take home more than 2-3 at a time since I live within 2 miles of like five Supermarkets and a Walmart, with the closest Supermarket being about 2 blocks away, so I can ride my bicycle to get groceries if I want (again 2 handlebars and a backpack).
