And indeed homophobic behaviour and intolerance is a product of more than religion BUT those people use the anti-homosexual teachings in the bible to defend behaviour that is in no way defend-able.

I don't think the issue is prayer in schools, I think it's when it is obligatory for you to pray, it's disrespectful for those who are not Christian and whether it is a Christian country or not, it is also a free country, a country where you are free to practise whatever religion you please so being forced to pray to a certain god in school, is wrong.

We all live in a world where every group has its own understanding fellows and extremists in nature when it comes to their ideologies. I prefer not to care at all... And you care, and they care... That's funny considering the ones who hates the opposition uses the same object to spread hate to the other side... The Bible...

And although I'm not against homosexual relationships, I put procreation first on my list especially at times of endangering human life in earth, which homosexuals can't unless we all agree on cloning yourself which has disturbing issues at this time... You may agree with me or not but atleast for myself, some of what the bible thought us was common sense... Man and Woman, not man and man nor woman and woman can go and multiply... Basically what Noah and the Ark was for...

As for the prayers, As long as they don't force an atheist to lead the prayer in classes, I don't mind it at all...

I give up. This is just stupid to be honest. Some of yall just sound brainwashed.

A time when human life is endangered humans are procreating more than ever, our population is TOO high and if it continues rising as it will the Earth will not be able to support us.

I'm agnostic too, it wasn't a personal attack, there are several people here way worse

But if a meteor fell then we would be in trouble but there is no way no how you could say that humans are at this moment endangered, if anything we need to STOP having babies for a while.

Oh it will never happen, I'm not arguing that, just saying that the population does not NEED more babies, which in a way is what you said.

As long as it doesn't interfere with the others nor causes any disrespect, I'm OK with it.

Torture

Is it ever Justified?
To What Extent?

[RatedG²]

Torture, in my biased opinion, should NEVER be justified under any circumstances. In America, it would go against the "Cruel and unusual punishment" clause in one of the amendments, I forget which one. It's a nasty way to get information out of someone that could be false because of the torture committed. Someone could just say he or she commuted a crime because of the pain of torture.

[Queen Bea.]

This is one thing that I am completely unsure about.

On one hand, there is the possibility to save 1000s of lives but on the other...it could be an innocent man or woman. It could be pointless. Torture is very much alive though. There has to be better ways of getting information than through suffering and pain.
