Weed...! Weed...!! WEED!!! Nevada is proposing on their November balot the legalization of Marijuana. According to their amendment, the state will grow, distribute, and tax the cannibis plant. Also, Individuals are aloud to carry up to 3 ounces. That's more than a bargain! But you have to be 21 to buy it (sigh). Well it's something that is progressive in the states. Read the article.

When it comes to English literature, I say that I favor Edgar Allan Poe more than all other famous writers. I just finished reading "The Fall of the House of Usher" and I thought it was a great story. Why? For the most part it makes you think. Yes, it is gloomy, just as his other essays. This one resembles many other essays of Poe-- the catacombs, a heritage falling apart, etc. etc. The end of House of Usher is, if not surreal, exciting.
Deciphering his works can be an endeavoring process, yet it is endoringly healthy and expansive to the mind. Literature, in general, is rewarding, and disperses of any regrets.
The Fall of the House of Usher

I watched Fox News earlier today, and I was frightened by what the federal government proposed for the defense of our nation. Generally, this guy came up with a formula that can track down terrorists in the system. It is a national database that holds copious amount of peoples' names and records for later use of checking. The title of this database, which I think has the most scariest allsuion, is called "Matrix"-- isn't that some bizarre shit. Conservatives and liberals alike are questioning if this will invade on the peoples' privacy. Lets see if problems will arise, huh.

Man, when I changed the template of my blog, it removed my comment links. So now I need to go over and readmit several comments.

Ha, ha, the porn industry has temporally shut down filming do to the recent hiv testing. An actor named Darren James was recently test positive for hiv after returning from a shoot in Brazil. Unfortunately, porn actress Laura Roxx was tested for hiv after a film with James. Roxx, 21, has appeared in 18 sex scenes in her career. Ha, now all male pornstar penises are going to shrible up and disappear. Here is an article of her in the Gazette paper. Also you can find a brief citation of her in Newsweek April 26, 2004, and more general info about the HIV tests in the porn industry.

Massachusetts, newly found fag capital of the states, have been issuing same-sex marriage licenses to couples. Bushie boy opposes this licentiousness* as the act of marriage is sacred.
Naturally, I'm still disturbed, presently, by this issue set forth. I'm neither pro-gay, nor anti-gay. That shit they can deal on there own. No interest.
Read article here.

U.S. soldiers handing out flyers* to Iraqi prisoners stating, "You have not been mistreated." Either they mindfucked the prisoners during abuse and reprogrammed them by stating that they haven't been mistreated, or is a poor recovery by apologizing to them.
Read Article.

Hmmm, k. Last Thursday in Scottland a drunk stripper snuck on an airplane, slipping pass security. She apparently wanted to find a place to sleep. The guards didn't know, yet a full investigation is on the way. Bullshit! She probably gave each guard a blowjob while wasted, and the guards left her there passed out until somebody found her.

A good reason to vote for Bush! You know, most of it seems very fundamental when it comes to voting for Bush--his policy that is. And voting against it would rather be extreme. Where dose the moderate level stand?
Google news.

Hmm, a sour Christian who once believed in Bushie boy. Wow, this is interesting to hear dissent from a refugee of Bush. I think I am convinced that most conservatives are waking up from this outrage. This guy sounds like a looney for what he has to say about "the once true America," yet his other opinion I can agree on. Then again, this could be a sore liberal passing false information on the web do to his flaring hatred towards Bushie boy (no offense against liberals). Stop by and check it out.

Hey, fokes! I have here a link that is most intriguing... if you are interested in Physics. This link takes you to a site that is all about the discovery of String Theory. String Theory is an extension to the Sub-Atomic level--or Quantum level--of Physics. I have read a little about it, and it seems pretty mind boggling. Start off on the basics link for those who don't know shit about Physics, because it gets pretty perplexing.

Yeah, I'm bored as hell, and there is nothing to do. Also it is hot. Been running around trying to find a job for the summer, because I am out of school for the summer. I might go back for summer school if I can't find work. Yet, there is no way in hell I'm going to work in the restaurant business. Ugh, I need to do something productive.
Sorry guys. I know I've been gone for over a week, and I am sorry I have nothing interesting to post, but I will keep looking.

Contradictions whether if the economy is doing good or bad; boom or bust. I have here a link from Fox News report, and some other news network. Not only does fox news's article states Bush's proposal for the economy, but really, that is why he is letting immigrants coming over the borders, so he can boost the economy, and win votes. Hmmm, isn't that illegal? Anyway, is the economy doing good or bad? You decide.

Yeah, this article is from a supreme judge of the federal court. It describes her opinion about the death penalty. She states that could the death penalty be unconstitutional or not? She is a Roman Catholic, and uses other references to back her argument from other cases and biblical scriptures. She also cases whether it is moral or immoral to decide the death penalty.
Why do they have to bring religion in this matter. I can see why the court would press for the death penalty if you kill 40 people. But you can't legislate morality. http://www.firstthings.com/ftissues/ft0205/articles/scalia.html

You know, a secular person says that this is unconstitutional, and a religious person says "no" that's unconstitutional. The first clause of the First Amendment it states, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..." I'm not a lawyer, nor any interprator of the law, but to the best of my knowledge, "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion..." that first part of that clause, simply means that there shall be no law favoring any religion. The word "respecting" means that. Another synonym would be "treat with special consideration," "high regards," or " high esteem." The reason why they have seperation of church and state is because if a religious person[s] makes its way to office in any branch and has complete control over it, then they can legislate any law they want, and from what I recall they go by what God tells them what to do. They might impose Old Testament laws, or Islamic laws, for example. Yet it doesn't necessarily mean that a legislator has to be a religious person to ratify it, to favor or "respect" that notion. Nobody--religious or nonreligious-- can impose religious laws.

The second clause, "...or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..." yet means that they can practice any religion or beliefs, as long as Congress doesn't make a law respecting, or favoring a religion.

If this was truely a Christian nation, previously, why is it a democracy? I mean of course not all Christians are bad, and they prefer democracy because it's free; that's great. But you have these nuts that theocracy in this nation is rightious thing to have, and are willing to do anything to attain it. From what I know of...I guess you can call them real Christians, they say their place is in heaven--their theocratic government; they don't want anything of this plane. Alright, over the past century our moral values have changed, but the culture alters, and not everybody was a Christian. Who says everything has become worse? People who are not Christians have morals that they reflect upon.

Now our forfathers, except a few, were deists. They believed in a higher intelect, not specifically the Christian God. Now the ones who were actually Christains were George Washington, Paul Revere*, and a few others I cannot recall. Washington didn't oppose the democratic government. Hell, he was president of the convention that was debating and drafting the constitution.

Alright, now I need to shut up. Here is a link. http://www.4religious-right.info/introduction2.htm

I have found several articles that are quite disturbing. First I want to say that I have nothing against Christianity, and I respect their beliefs. For what I know of Christians are decent people. But this new movement--actually it is old, but it has risen to dire levels. Dominionism is a fundemental belief that God's law applies everywhere , and those who don't accept are punished by old moseic laws. They believe that they are called to take over America, overthrowing our Constitution, and establishing a theocractic government. How they do it is quietly by taking up positions in Congress, Senate, Courts, etc. They will start of by what it's called "Faith Based Initiatives," that little by little they will try to get legislatures to ratify laws, like prohibiting abortion, homosexual marriages, and posting biblical references.
Dominionist, like Pat Robertson, are sick bastards that want to take away our civil liberties, and replace a strict rule. These dominionist ignore everything that Jesus taught, and only listen to what 'they' think is right, and they interpret what Jesus said. Most of what they think is right, is pretty crual to human nature.
Read both of these articles. There are more on the net. Although be aware that this might not be true, and just a farse to scare people. And I can't say if these sources are backed up; I don't really believe them, but I figured that it is something good to look at and post on my blog:-)
But hey! Like they are not the only loonies that want power. http://www.yuricareport.com/Dominionism/TheDespoilingOfAmerica.htm

Yes! Here is most of it in a nut shell. I used to think that people had radical, alledged ideas about the administration with the war in Iraq. But it is clear how Bush's Democracy works. The site below, there is one thing that I agree about it, strongly, in its text: I prefer the old 1776 version of America where we the people decide. Click here for Alternet's Bush's Democracy. Inside, links are included in the text to show you some of the information that has been reported, such as the tax-cut proposal, the toppling casualties of our soldiers in Iraq, and contradictions found in our president's speachs--determining the way you put it in context. Plus, when you read the article about Bush and Cheney's appearance before the 911 commission--it is pretty much a waste of time, and complete spin.

I've managed to find a site that provides comment scripts. Now we can all share our information by posting a comment. Read up and leave feedback please. Thanks.

Well, it looks like there is going to be more deficits by the end of this year. Bush is requesting Congress for another $25-50 billion for the war in Iraq, and the bill will pass this January. Hopefully, as it is stated, it will serve good for the defense of our troops. Click Here.

Man, this guy is asking for more of our money to cover up his mistakes. Having a good strategy would have been most important in the beginning, instead a preemtive strike. Not to mension the morale of our soldiers. I think the Bush doctrine is failing, or already has failed. This election will be most important for our nation, but in my opinion, this guy needs to get out of office. I've been reading the information which I hope is factual, yet the information does go hand-to-hand with others that I compare. I've made up my mind on who I want to vote for. The war is not the only thing I'm concerned about; the economy and the ever increasing deficit, and--Ultimatly, my Civil Liberties. Read about the Patriot Acts.
Now I'm not saying who you guys should vote for, but do please read up on things from any source and compare them with other sources, and be wise on who and what you are voting for. Look for the facts!

Finally, I have one more final exam to complete. Thank Christ in Heaven I'm done for this semester. Well, time to prepare for summer class.

Aw, an interesting analysis by Thomas Paine. This critique is about his doubts that Jesus ever existed, moreover, if the Bible is accurate.

I'm glad that people like him exist, or existed.

This is most an educational site. It has famous quotes from our American forefathers. Very intellectual meaning to it.
http://www.famous-quote.net/quotes-liberty.shtml

I saw a movie that really changed my perspective on things. When I finished watching it, I was like, "whoooa." I never thought how prejudice I was in everything. It took my philosophy to another level. The whole science behind it is great! The Philosophy of Time Travel, a pretty interesting concept. Of course it is just fictional, but the hidden messages in it is mind boggling. Although when I read the director's meaning behind it, it is different from what I was thinking, previously. The boy speculates of what might be his recent future, and then he dies. You really think he went back in time to sacrifice himself, but in actuallity, he is just thinking of his (I think) future, right before he dies. It has a good mystical point of view. My friend and I were thinking the same thing, although none of it is real. It is dogmatic though, so you can see how we were fooled.
