OT-Obama supports blasphemy laws
 
Looks like we won't be able to reply to those muslim spammers
in the future if obama gets his wish.

The obama administration aligned itself with Egypt, which has long been
criticized for prosecuting artists, activists and journalists for insulting
Islam.

Around the world, free speech is being sacrificed on the altar of religion.
Whether defined as hate speech, discrimination or simple blasphemy,
governments are declaring unlimited free speech as the enemy of freedom of
religion.

Yet Christian and Jew bashing will be expected and encouraged. Good 'ol
liberal two-step.

Well, you sure can't call them Muslim Faggots anymore.

The Weekly Standard strikes out again. They got the story almost exactly
backwards. It isn't the first time they've done so:

Right you are, Rich.

All I can say is "F*CK Religion!", as it has caused more death and
destruction than it has 'good'. People can be kind and do good deeds
without it. It's just another form of wealth redistribution.

An interesting read.... I'm sorry, but I don't think I need more pink
unicorns trotting through my forests.

Why can't people deal with the "Here and Now?" Drop the metaphysical
crap about why we're here (big bangs and let-there-be-light) and get on
with life.

Life begets life. We want our children to have good lives, so we do the
best we can to give it to them. Problem is, we've been short-sighted.
As a race, humanity is only now slowly awakening to the need for
sustainable resource management so that our progeny can provide for
their progeny, ad infinitum.

To keep people from killing one another over resources, Capitalism and
Democracy were created. With careful balancing, those rich in resource
A can trade materials with those rich in resource B, so that both sides
get what they need. More materials in more places means more trade and
income for everyone involved. Each may want more, but being greedy can
destroy the balance and the resources.

Look up the "Principle of Enlightened Self Interest." I first
encountered it in a book called Subspace Explorers by E.E. Smith. I
would strongly suggest that every capitalist with a modicum of ethics
should read it.

Follow the Golden Rule, encourage others to follow the same by your own
good example. No religion, no complicated philosophy, is really needed.

Of course, this is a simple solution to a complicated problem.... Buyer
Beware.
