  • Amending marriage to include whom?

    I have heard that marriage should be defined as two consenting adults committing to one another. I have been told it is bigoted and unfair to define it as anything else. Would those "rights" advocates also say it is unfair to exclude consenting adults in incestuous relationships from marriage? Or consenting polygamous adults? Or does it vary from one homosexual marriage activist to another?

  • Marriage definition excludes homsexuals and others?

  • Man is the cause of global warming?

    Climate change has never existed. There was not a Mini Ice Age or a Mini Optimum in the last few thousand years. Man was not afraid of an Ice Age in the 1970's.

    Because mankind created cows, and deer, and elk, and ever other creature that flatulates methane gas. We are responsible for melting the icecaps. Because mankind organized Hurricane Katrina and toppled thousands of trees, we are all going to drown in fifty years from the expansion of melting ice, because we all know water molecules expand when heated, just like in our ice trays.

  • My dog won't quit whining!?

    Someone dropped off a puppy at my grandparents. He's a mutt, so you can't really go by breed traits. He whines all the time, for no reason at all. It's really obnoxious. He's very well fed, and it isnt wanting to go out. I've tried training methods to break the behavior, squirting with water, and popping him on the hip (just hard enough so he should know that's not a good behavior). He isn't a very smart dog and he obviously wasn't making the connection. He'd quit because he was distracted by the punishment, and would start whining again immediately, and if you continue scolding him he gets frustrated and nervous. What else can I do?
