Agreed completely with the above.

Oh God, toronto is never going to make the playoffs now :( It hasn't actually been confirmed yet.

Extrajudicial Killing
But it does entitle him to whatever rights that American citizens have in this case, such as the right to a trial. A right every person should have, not just citizens of a specific country :P

Extrajudicial Killing
See, that piece of information makes absolutely no difference to me. Who cares if he's an american citizen? It doesn't exactly make his life worth more or less...

Dry skin is worse, particular as you get older - the dryer your skin is, the more prone you are to wrinkes.

Extrajudicial Killing
You do realize he was killed in a missile strike? It would be one thing if he was killed in a raid, where they could have just taken him prisoner. But these missile strikes are much easier and more cost-effective to pull off.

Extrajudicial Killing
I have to disagree, I don't find it to be a necessity. He didn''t break any laws, and even if he had done so, he deserved a trial, where he would be judged based on evidence. You can't just skip all the process and have someone killed because he says something you don't like (which aslo happens to be protected by your own laws). What's more is that trying to justify this is supporting the idea that a single person (or a very small group of priviledged people) can determine wether it is a necessity or not to kill someone without having questions asked. The whole point of the second article was to say how that approach isn't practical. It basically boils down to giving one person a fair trial, or letting further terrorist attacks occur.

Well, I think it's an unfortunate necessity in this case.

Beliefs, Religion and Faith.
Oh, just most of the specifics about heaven, hell, and predestination. Not to say he doesn't make some good points. It's just half of it can be easily refuted by a quick read of the catechism.

Beliefs, Religion and Faith.
That video demonstrates the most awful representation of religious doctrine I've ever seen.
-
Beliefs, Religion and Faith.
That's an age-old fallacy. It's possible to believe in God without believing in predestination - indeed catholic doctrine indicates that God knows what will happen but chooses not to control it.
