Starcatcher
I hope that everyone that reads your comments feels pity for you. What a hateful, small minded fool you are. And you are a fool.

What do think of F&M bailouts, Enron, Exxon subsidies. If you are going to attack peoples for thier diet start at home. Global carrying capacity is going to influence what people eat. Have an understanding of cultures before you comment. How are you specifically footing the bill?

I am also not a Christian, but I do not subscribe to any sense of immorality that dooms others to a life of suffering and death.
Rugid individualism goes against any survival instinct. There are close to 7 billion people living on defined resources. How do you produce more than you consume?

“mortgage on my childrens future” Your already banking on someone else, more than likely, years of voting against your own socio-economic self interest has left you destitute to a life of believing what you were told. What type of world are we leaving for the next generation.

I give you a “D”
Although you responded to the questions asked you gave no real answers. This represents a very poor effort on your part.

When did I say anything about how you spend money? Besides if you produce more than you consume, it shouldn’t be a problem.

Personal responsibility includes educating oneself out of the 16th century. Personal responsibility includes contributing to society, to the world, a finite place where our offspring and “other people” will have to reside. Why do you think that I am a libral?

Circle in full, what do you have against dogs?
DISMAL FAILURE. China is in the black. This country has gone severely into the red since Reagon and exponentialy with Bush. From other post I have read of yours, maybe you should be writing out a check to support the Neo-Cons war. That’s how you can spend your money! Maybe if you send a nice letter with it you can get one of your racist, bigoted comments posted on the side of a bomb to to take out some twelve year old terrorist playground.

No one suspected the Spanish Inquistition.
All of the Abrahamic faiths carry blood on thier hands. Dome of the Rock. If your looking for wrongdoing you do not need to venture that far.

Still a fool.

13 Roonskii August 8, 2008 at 12:46 am

Once again, as i have stated, you are a fool.

what they need to do is regulate the number of animals that are bred. if they keep breeding them like crazy there’s gonna be more animals that’ll have to be put down.
