Spongebob_man1 Say your piece write-off
Aug 16 '04
The Bottom Line Let us know your views. Give a little piece of yourself so the Epinion members can get to know you.
I participate in this write-off after reading the answers of my epinion's friend, GaryM.
1) Do you believe in science's evolution theory or the Bible's creation theory?
I believe in Darwin’s theory of evolution and the Big Bang theory in the creation of the universe. I was an astronomy buff and science takes priority in my analytical mind.
2) If you believe in the Bible's creation theory do you disbelieve science in other areas such as medical research, geology, astronomy, physics, biochemistry, etc?
N/A
3) Why do you think "we are here?" (Why do humans exist?)
Good question. I feel we exist for a reason and I have survived near death enough to believe in God. Initially, we arrived to enjoy the fruits and natural wonders of life. We have become money hungry energy abusers who may have doomed ourselves. Only time will tell.
4) Can we ever truly be happy by grasping for material things (cars, houses, CDs, movies, clothes, etc.) or should we be more concerned about affecting/improving others' lives?
Material things can always be a quick fix for happiness, accomplishment and pride. We should be more concerned with the welfare of all mankind ~ but is that for the dreamers?
5) Do you think ADD/ADHD are more a product of environment or genetics? Why do you think ADD/ADHD has become so prevalent in the last 20 or so years?
I’d say genetics. Other than our poor eating habits and massive doses of sugar finally being a controlling factor, I don’t believe the environment has much to do with this.
6) Are you a Democrat or Republican or something else? Why do you subscribe to that ideology?
I had two democratic parents and haven’t swayed much. I can sway though ~ depending on the issue.
7) George Bush or John Kerry for President? Why?
Kerry. We need a man with a big head and a first lady with a big mouth.
8) How do you feel about Ralph Nader getting most of his support from long time Republicans in the form of campaign contributions and signatures to get Nader on the ballot this fall?
Nader helps them ~ good tactic. I don’t like it though and Nader knows who he’s helping.
9) Has toppling the regime of Saddam Hussein really made us safer? Or has it infuriated more Muslim fundamentalists and made us a bigger target?
Safer – no. Infuriated Muslim terrorists ~ yes
10) Was the Abu Ghraib torture scandal a big deal to you?
I believe all tortures of POW’s are and will continue to haunt us.
11) Why has Osama Bin Laden, the mastermind and financier of 9/11, been virtually ignored since the Iraq Invasion began?
He hasn’t been ignored ~ just not captured. I believe he is dead. They love martyr’s and are very good at keeping quiet.
12) Do you think America should support and/or participate in a possible invasion/attack against Iran?
No. We have enough to handle already.
13) Have you seen or plan on seeing Fahrenheit 9/11? If you've seen it what did you think about it?
I plan to see it on cable and look forward to it.
14) Do you think we, as a nation, are more united or more divided since 9/11?
Initially, we were definitely more united. Now, especially in an election year and the events in Iraq ~ a country divided.
15) The Terminator is Governor of California, Madeleine Albright was Secretary of State under President Clinton, and other foreign born American citizens have contributed to this country. Should foreign born American citizens be allowed to run for President?
I love Arnold and believe he is doing his best here in California. But no to the question.
16) Do you trust the electronic voting machines that will be used in some states this election?
Not in Florida ~ unless changes I haven’t heard of have taken place.
17) Does the United Nations fill a relevant or necessary role in todays world?
It should ~ but it needs some huevos.
18) Why are you Pro-Choice or Pro-Life?
Pro - Choice - during the first trimester.
19) Why do you support or condemn the death penalty?
I support it only on serial killers and other very special circumstances. I could not personally vote for death as a juror as I believe it goes against the 10 Commandments and could not play God.
20) Any final thoughts or feelings?
Good group of questions ~ but I am left with a lot on my mind.
