Religion & Spirituality > Atheism & Agnosticism Why Atheism is wrong
16 of 59

Ok this is the just plain ridiculous. Nothing about Atheism is wrong. The greatest atrocities in history have all been committed in the name of religion. Speaking of which, what the hell happened to freedom of religion? No religion, or lack thereof is ever wrong. And did anyone ever think of this? There is just as good of a ... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Politics in Africa Sudan: Struggle for peace
6 of 13

There was once a time in America's history when we perpetrated the mass kidnapping of millions upon millions of innocent people, depopulating entire countries and enslaving and torturing their people. We assumed that they were somehow inexplicably less than human because the color of their skin was different. The terrible ti... More..

Creative Writing > Novel Excerpts Novel excerpts: Fantasy

The Loner's Blade Novel Excerpt Chapter 1 He was the only man on earth. That was how it felt to Hralien Cardell. Not that he actually remembered his last name of course. He was the son of two officials of the city-state of Anakh-Ro. His parents had been sent by the king to find a cave deep in the Great Waste that had rumored... More..

Politics, News & Issues > US Politics (Other) Comparing the ancient Inca government and the government of the United States
1 of 2

I hate to break it to you, but you may want to recheck your facts. The Inca government is not in the slightest similar to the US government. It is, for all intents and purposes, a communist government. Everything they did was regulated- when they worked, when they ate, etc. The monarch had absolute power. Inspectors dropped ... More..

Politics, News & Issues > US Elections (Other) Should Election Day be a national holiday?Smallicon
14 of 26

Should Election Day be a national holiday? Only for the right reasons. Election Day is not a holiday for the politicians. It is a holiday for the people. And the fact is, nothing should be, or is more important to American society than the very manifestation of the democracy on which it is based. You can't taint it by saying... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Political Issues Smoker's rights
33 of 45

I have to point out one thing here. It's not about the smokers hurting themselves at all. I hear people constantly saying that it's the smokers decision to smoke tobacco and possibly kill themselves, but it's not about that. THe fact of the matter is, secondhand smoke kills. If it were only harmful to the smoker, smoking wou... More..

Religion & Spirituality > Thoughts on God Why God does not intervene in the world more often
48 of 64

This is a very hard topic to discuss. Not only are you trying to find the reasoning in the mind of an all powerful being, you are trying to find the reasoning in the mind of a being that may not exist, especially in the way you think of it. There is just as good of a chance of the greek gods and goddesses existing as of Alla... More..

Politics, News & Issues > US Elections (Other) How young people can get involved in politics
20 of 23

Frankly, there is a very slim chance of someone young getting involved in politics through a school subject or from someone trying to get them interested. It's much more of something that most kids can have already. I'm thirteen right now, and I couldn't get a single one of my friends involved in politics if I tried. That's ... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Terrorism Is Osama Bin Laden still alive?
17 of 19

There is almost no chance of Osama bin Laden being alive, especially not in the mountainous regions that everyone seems to believe he is hiding in. The fact of the matter is that Osama Bin Laden is a 60 year old man. He may be fired by religous (or otherwise) fury, but he is still a 60 year old man. He has medical needs. He ... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Pulitzer Center Should a global climate agreement hold the US to a higher environmental standard than the rest of the world?
80 of 86 Donatedbadge

The simple answer? Of course. The U.S. is among the world's biggest contributors to global warming! The fact is, global warming is a problem that faces all of us, but we are not all equally the cause. The US cannot act like it is doing the same as anyone else, except perhaps China. The UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate... More..
