Entertainment > Music Genres, Trends & Scenes Defending heavy metal music: It's not just screaming
11 of 57

Being a guy who grew up during the Eighties Heavy Metal days, I have a deep passion for all things Metal. Well not all things. The genre's classified as Death Metal and Nu-Metal are absolute rubbish in the opinion of this writer.

Politics, News & Issues > Politics in the Middle & Near East Should America attack Iran?
13 of 67

Firstly the conflict in Iraq should be rectified prior to considering any sort of military campaign against the nation of Iran. Our forces are taxed enough fighting the counter- insurgency in AL Sadr and Baghdad. Iran has been no more than a minor inconvenience to the United States and the U.N. The fact that they refuse to l... More..

A Plan for Iraq There may be no sure fire answer to the conflict that is raging in Iraq.

If a commutation comes this soon after the guilty verdict, how much longer until the full pardon? This is a prime example of when a person invests enough capi... More..

I apologize in advance if the vernacular used in this aricle is offensive to anyone, in particular the Gay and Lesbian community and the Nation of Islam and anyone of Arab or Middle Eastern descent.

50 of 53

Being one who does not believe in the conventional god, it would be stereotypical of me to say "No, religion holds no place in schools or extra-curricular events". But quite the contrary, I do believe that religion should be openly allowed within the walls of the schoolhouse. On the converse, I do not believe that religious ... More..
