forbid you from natural resources and food
take away your money
automatically ruin your credit history
or isolation (they ship you off to some far off place and let you die in the desert or some snow mountain probably)

And I already told ya that there will be no guns, only the UN policeman will have them. I haven't looked at it in a while but it is about the worst thing that could happen to this world.
Oh yea: The head honchos will be hand picked from special "breeding schools" were people are raised to think exactly like the people in the back want them to think. There are hardly times were you can elect an official, if you can elect an official then it is a very low spot and the decisions they make can easily be overturned by the people who were hand picked and breeded in the special facility.
There is already a pledge for the government, ayou pledge to the earth that gives us life and all that. And if you don't say the pledge then you will be punished.. I mean that is some pretty messed up stuff.
but yah i already know this
Its weird though, because it can actually be good you know?
it makes all the hate go away
people all think the same way, preventing fights and war

But i just think its wrong, its taking human nature away.
It takes away our right to think for ourselves

Even though it can be good for human race over all, its just not right!

Yea it can be good, but I think my country is good the way it is. If only there weren't stupid gangs and stuff "protecting their rep" and shooting each other.

Well I kinda have an open question about religion mixed with politics. See, I probably only turn on my TV fewer than 10 times a month. Half of that time, I may watch a half hour of TV. I'm really someone who can say that they just don't watch TV... pretty rare in today's society, I think. Buuuuttttttt.... when I DO watch TV, I tend to watch [corrupt] shows like The O'Rielly Factor and other equally IQ-lowering programs of the such.

My question is: How can someone be allowed on national television, like Bill O'Rielly? - and, doesn't he appear to draw 99% of the conclusions on his show solely based off of his own religiously Republican-based opinions instead of listening to his guests?

WHY?!? do I watch that garbage? I don't know. I am a non-religious Democrat, for the most part. That's not to say that I will stay Democrat, vote Democratically, or anything of the such, just to clear that up... but it just seems to me that religion should never cross into politics... doing so can cause friendly people to turn radical. I'm not simply outcasting an entire people here, but take for example, radical Islamist values. Whether different from what you or I believe, is not the point. What's important to think about is that religion is deeply rooted in extremist or radical Islamist values.

Why isn't there a more literal enforcement of "separation of church and state"? We don't want to become a nation of violence and religious bigotry, so why do we allow our televisions to be flooded with that content?

Yea I don't mind if it is separate. ANYBODY can have a show nowadays. There were like 7 reality shows going on at one time in MTV and VH1. And it takes people like 4 seasons of trying to find love on tv only to find out that they are wasting their time. Yea, I could probably have a show if I wanted to just to hate on things like Peter's "You know what really grinds my gears?" on Family Guy.

Like... it's ok to be Republican. It's ok to be Democrat. It's ok to be religious, and it's also ok to be a combination of some or all of those entities. But Bill O'Rielly only shouts over people and repeats religious and Republican banter time and time again. He even does it to Republican guests on the show.

Just listen to how many times in 30 minutes he makes references Democrats by saying things like, those "loons" to the "far left", "crazy left", "pinhead left-wingers", and my favorite, "Democratic elitists". I heard him say that one when he was talking about a college's chancellor once... like... "lolwut Bill?".

WTF??

Humans can make life. They can clone life. They can genetically alter life. And now we may bring alternate life to the planet Mars. It's a breakthrough all right, to say the least. I just find it interesting that I don't see any major religious organizations opposed to this kind of science publicly.

catholics believe that cloning life is wrong its sorta a pro life deal ive never rly understood it and i do very much disagree with the catholic views of it. If u must then look it up on google the main reason i disagree is because i think parents with deceased children should be given a second chance with that child..... also im a firm beliver in altering human genes for the better and this would boost that factor quite a bit..
