Oh, man, it would take an hour to set all of this lying and distorting straight. I don't know where to begin. But I'll try.

Torog: How the hell does sex education make kids have sex? Does drug education make kids take drugs (might be the wrong place to ask that)? Does driver's ed cause kids to be in car crashes? My sex education class wasn't "hands-on" and I don't think that's the case for anyone.

And what of the people who don't share your morals and values? Christianity is not absolute, no matter what you may think. Suppose, hypothetically, that our kids go to the same school, but I don't want my kid learning any math because it goes against our Headinthesand-ism. Wouldn't you be pissed off when I go to the school board railing against the evil math teaching going on at taxpayer expense? Wouldn't you be irate when I called for the end of math teaching? Wouldn't it make more sense if I just decided to pull my kid out of math instead of trying to take it away from everyone?

And how does me not wanting to execute criminals constitute a want on my part for their continued criminal actions? Don't we have prisons or am I mistaken?

Why is me stating the fact that famine and genocide in Africa are happening tantamount to blaming those things on America? I guess you must blame your newspaper for everything you read in it.

Stop distorting what people say. Damn. That's the only reason why I went off on that rant before. You blamed that kids abortion on me. I will not fucking stand for that.

And yes, I know that the assault weapons you speak of aren't fully automatic. But the kits used to make them fully automatic are out there and available to anyone who wants one. You can make an M-16 fully automatic, but you can't make a 30-06 automatic. And by your "sex education making kids fuck" rationale, doesn't the fact that such kits are available mean that all assault rifles will be fully automatic in the end?

amsterdam: Of course you had no problems travelling around the world. You'll find that most people in the world are more tolerant towards differing viewpoints.

Would you agree that American homosexuals are still citizens? And would you also agree that the Constitution gives equal protection to American citizens? I think you'll start to see those 14 states having to reverse their stance on gay marriage in the near future, no matter what the people voted.

And I'm glad you made a lot of money in stocks and bonds. Good for you. But most people don't trade stocks and bonds though. The stock market has gone up 135% over the last ten years while the minimum wage still puts people working full time on it under the poverty line. The unemployment rate is down because a lot of people have resorted to working two or three of those low-paying jobs to make ends meet.

XTC: Please start crediting Bill Maher for your "new rules." Otherwise, we're cool.
