    The American tax system.

    There is some misconceptions here to clear up: 1) There could never be a national sales tax because although it has a lot of appeal to the masses it would be a catastrophe. It would create a large and unruly black market, much larger than we have now. Because the poor and middle class spend a...

    One reason I believe Ronald Reagan was a great President

    Ok I was around when Reagan was president. He was not great because he couldn't keep track of his underlings, although better than Nixon. Any claim of greatness he has (had) is that he chose a course of action and more or less stayed on it. We all new what Reagan stood for. We didn't need...

    Accept Jesus or go to hell. Its that simple. Why?

    Reply to Jooksing. Read Mark Twain's first travel book. He wondered how all the dead of Hawaii could miss Heaven when they lived in paradise and didn't know about heaven in the first place. (Twain's version was much funnier). If you look at many of the cultures that Christianity converted, the...

    Accept Jesus or go to hell. Its that simple. Why?

    I accept that. Hell probably is mentioned. The Hebrews had Hell (gehenna)but our conception of Hell is probably Dante's who was Italian. None of that really matters. What matters is that you conduct yourself in such a way as to maintain a stable society. Heaven was the carrot and Hell was...

    woman kills her children and the liberals come out of the wood work

    First of all what does the woman that did this say? Did she ask for mercy? Did she say the devil made her do it? We have presidence for this. Remember the lady in South Carolina that pushed the car in the lake with her two kids inside? I don't think she was claiming demonic possession. We...

    Moral Relationship Question

    You have been together long enough to have the seven (in this case four year itch). Since you didn't marry the girl (good call) she still thinks that there are greener pastures. SO YOU have to be the adult here. No one knows except you what you feel like when you are around your lady friend...

    Poll: Pick your state

    Got to go for Colorado, even though I live in KS. Did you know what General Sherman said about Texas? "If I owned both hell and Texas I'd live in Hell and rent out Texas".

    Handspring Visor Deluxe @ Target B&M $199

    I have tried twice to get Staples to price match and now they have the $50 MIR on their website and they are refusing to pricematch it. I have been through two supervisors and no deal. What can I do now other than take the $40 coupon and the $50 MIR?
