Something I just got in an email... For the US-Americans in here...
- Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him and a bad guy when Bush needed a "we can't find Bin Laden" diversion.
Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is communist, but trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony.
A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but multinational corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind without regulation.
The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in speeches while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay.
If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex.
Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy. Providing health care to all Americans is socialism.
HMOs and insurance companies have the best interests of the public at heart.
Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science, but creationism should be taught in schools.
A president lying about an extramarital affair is an impeachable offense. A president lying to enlist support for a war in which thousands die is solid defense policy.
Government should limit itself to the powers named in the Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the Internet.
The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but George Bush's cocaine conviction is none of our business.
Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a conservative radio host. Then it's an illness, and you need our prayers for your recovery.
You support states' rights, which mean Attorney General Gonzalez can tell states what local voter initiatives they have the right to adopt.
What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest, but what Bush did in the '80s is irrelevant.

Junk Science as in "we have no idea wtf is really going on, and anyone who claims that there is serious proof one way or the other is full of poopy"
I found it entertaining, I didn't say I agreed with everything in it.
OTOH creationism/ID isn't even junk science... It's anti-science

Nuh-uh!
Sex Ed 101, as experienced by yours truly in the 8th grade... a guy comes in and shows a video on puberty, then tells us:
"Premarital sex can lead to diseases such as pregnancy and AIDS."
We need to eliminate diseases like pregnancy and AIDS by not letting people have sex! If we let people have sex, then we will have to require that it is sex without pleasure on the woman's part with the sole objective of producing a child. And only if necessary. Other forms of sex are unBiblical, and in a theocracy like ours, things that are unBiblical must be outlawed.

Yup, "science" as taught by religious fanatics. Nothing to do with science.
It reminds me a law that was passed in one american state, - can't remember which -, where it was decided that for the sake of simplicity, Pi = 4.
This was, it was easier to square the circle, I guess.

that's quite bull actually :)

Oh yes the idea of it being a whole number is, but the actual value of pi is alot closer to 3 than 4, which leads me to think it would be more likely approximated to 3.
