They can't be worse then the lefty-Marxist swishers like Pat Condel and Richard Dawkins. They claim to hate religion, but will not say anything negative about Jews or Judaism.

So Judaism isn't a religion? Jews aren't religious?

You seem rather confused here....well, not just here....

James Watson, the American who discovered DNA molecules had the sack to admit the there is intelligence differences between the racists, some people are genetically disposed to be more violent, parents given the right to abort if the baby is a homosexual, etc. You can't claim to say religion is fake, and follow science, then avoid the science because it is politically incorrect.

You should do some reading on which racial group has the highest amount of serial killers...(hint, they are white....http://wikibin.org/articles/list-of-serial-killers-by-race.html).....which group has initiated the most wars (hint, they are white).....actually, the white-european (christian) racial group is responsible for more misery and death than any other by a long way....

I know that isn't the point you were trying to make....but ironically you did!

There are differences in brain structure and physical ability between the sexes and to an extent racial groups (an obvious one being skin colour) but the differences are very minor and rather irrelevant. Those seeking to make them relevant do so because they themselves suffer from low I.Q. (you should do some reading on the authoritarian personality type....).

There's a good reason why racism is often called "ignorance".

I notice that something like 90 percent of Thais believe in "spirit houses", would you like to unload on them as well? Live and let live.....IF the beliefs are harmless. That pretty much excludes Muslims with their whole "cruelty-based" world view.
Sure, creationism is bollocks but it doesn't result in mass-killings or attacks on tall buildings in New York.

Stop your never-ending bashing and open your eyes for a moment- I'm not arguing that the US is or isn't a superpower, but rather that other countries shouldn't be considered one purely on the basis of their nuclear arsenal.

I don't agree with your point re: China- as I said earlier in this thread, they are not yet a superpower (with the implication that they might one day become one) as they are not currently able to wield influence on a world-wide scale (certainly not to the level that the US is able to).

Sorry to inform you, but China owns the U.S.
They could bring it down to just another mexico any time they wanted to.

I guess Japan could as well since they own nearly as much US debt (until last year they were #1)- the UK is #3- yet the US still manages to remain standing- amazing how that's worked out.

The US is the largest customer of Chinese and Japanese goods, so they are able to run up huge tabs as an encouragement to keep buying their exports- if China or Japan made a move to hurt the US economy, they would be shooting themselves in the foot- also, many US companies are making huge investments in China to take advantage of their potential market.

As goes the US so goes China, Japan, et al- they all believe that the US dollar is ultimately the safest currency in the world (though, of course, none of their economic advisers have nearly the fiscal acumen of the average TeakDoor pundit)- hopefully that will continue to be true in the coming years (2011 is gonna be rocky for everybody...)

When I see a politician making a big spectacle out of going to religious services, I'm not sure which is more frightening;
1. Electing someone stupid enough to believe in such nonsense
or
2. Electing someone with so little morals and conviction as to cater to religious idiots.

,,,america is not the only place where this shit happens.
and i would not trust that poll either
politicians are whores all the way to the top.
and they don't have any morals.
