Fuck off, Wong. Im not going to retract my opinions because you typed in really big letters. Unfortunately for you, we dont live in a science dominated technocracy where you (and other small-minded limp dicks) get to control what people think. Instead, you inflate your ego by running this little boa...

I asumed that Obi-Wan was just so sick of the whole thing that he just left. Everything had gone horribly wrong, ANY move on his part would have equally fucked-up results, so he left to do the only good thing remaining: care for Padme and the baby.

Id pick the SW universe without a doubt. Sure, there is always some sort of shit going down, but it is huge enough that you can find a nice place to live how you want without anyone trying to mess with you. Or you could jump right in the middle if you want. The possibilities are endless.

Wow, what a fucking venom geyser. Amazing. Anyway, I wasn't aware that evolutionist was a derogatory term. I thought it meant a person who believed in evolution. you do realize that many people dont believe in either, right? I certainly am not a creationist, hell. I'm not even a Christian. I just fi...

I never said I dont agree with evolution. I never said that the fundies were right. I certainly dont feel that creationism should be taught in science classes, but I feel that some sort of religious history or philosophy should be taught in schools in an objective manner. Knowledge is never a bad th...

My point, again, is why the fuck do you care what they believe? If I could teach that the universe was shit out by an enormous turtle and convert millions of people to beleive that, WHY DO YOU CARE? Science has a knee-jerk reaction to any theory that it feels is unvalid. Your sentiments are no diffe...

I cant show you a degree, I dont have one, at least not in biology. My point was not to convince you that I am right. My whole point was to state that, regardless of your despotic opinion, people have the right to believe what they want to believe. If evolution is an absolute truth, then no argument...

Destruction of the Sith would only bring more imbalance to the force. True balance would mean that for every light side force user, there is a dark side user of equal power.

I think it is a rule of necessity rather than choice. Obviously those feeling are not 'bad' and they never state that they are, but they are the path to the dark side. Possibly a Jedi must keep those certain emotions in check because the Dark side will actually begin to draw you in through them. May...

Oops, my bad. Thats what I get for trying to pick out facts from the Howard Stern show :) However, Rick Schroeder was on there and he said that they magic undies could not be washed, I guess. Maybe I misunderstood. Anyway, magic underwear is still a cool idea. What are they supposed to do, anyway?

Personally, I think that it would be cool to have some magic underwear :D

But I suspect that the real reason for them is that they cannot be washed so you have to purchase a new pair.... CHA-CHING!!!
