The Church throughout history has shown itself to be one of the most corrupt and hypocritical institutions ever.
I have no time for it.

I appear to have a miniature bottle of Bruichladdich Islay Malt.
I have no idea where it came from and why.
It’s not my cup of tea so it will sit there until I can palm it off on someone.

I don’t agree with the death penalty but I agree life should mean life…. if however a prisoner wishes to take his own life….I do wonder why we don’t let them… I know Im a hard woman :?
I agree with you about animals Panda… makes me laugh that some religions consider them to be lesser beings with no souls… future generations will laugh at our silly religions…… hopefully :)
A very good post, Teapot.
I was thinking, people like Ian Huntley, Roy Whiting, Robert Black, Ian Brady child killers should be given the opportunity to end their own lives rather than cost the tax payer money.
If they don’t well then they should be given a bare cell and made to earn their own food, clothing etc.
In fact, that should be the norm for most prisoners – in the 19th century, they had a principle called the “doctrine of less eligibility.” This was defined as:
“that the situation of the able-bodied recipient of poor relief “on the whole shall not be made really or apparently as eligible as the independent labourer of the lowest class.”
By this, it was meant that the condition of a pauper in the workhouse should be not as attractive as that of the poorest labourer outside the workhouse.”
Ok, it refers to the now defunct Poor Law but I don’t think prisoners should be fed and clothed and given luxuries as a matter of right. Prison conditions should be as uncomfortable for them as possible and they should be made to earn things, just as a law abiding citizen has to do.
Education for rehabilitation should however, be mandatory so a prisoner has a means by which they can contribute to society upon their release.
Back to the thread – the US should remove the death penalty in the states in which it occurs – you cannot bring an innocent person back to life but you can release them after 30 years.

I would be very wary of using skype with people who you don’t fully know…. a friend who is a puter geek told me it was easy to pinpoint your exact location when using skype… also to view files you are downloading and sites you visit.. Im not sure how true it is…. but I found this article for anyone interested
http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/11/29/skype-can-expose-your-location-researchers-say/
I used Skype to phone overseas and had my bank details stored for auto top up.
My account got hacked by someone phoning Somalia and the auto top up kicked in…
Skype wouldn’t refund me so I refuse to use them. :twisted:

I don’t believe in the death penalty either yet everyday (and I’m shifting the emphasis here..) animals get put to death without even a trial. This isn’t a criticism of the American justice system I know, but adds weight to the senseless and sometimes meaningless purpose of life for me. Humans and animals who don’t want to die, but having to because someone made the decision that they should.
The lives of animals is viewed by some people as cheap. Apparently they don’t have souls so can be slaughtered at will for fun or for whatever reason.
Food I can understand, but killing animals for fun, I don’t understand. Animals love their young, they have thoughts, feelings and intelligence and the ability to communicate.
The American justice system has its good points and bad points but they won’t allow a defendant to be tried twice for the same offence (double jeopardy) which I think is wrong.
Lol
I just have to clarify that I am not on Skype.
Honest!
:D
