Has anyone here actually seen a bullfight in person?
I have. If the matador is good, the bull doesn't suffer and it is more humane than our meatpacking facilities. But if he's lousy, the bull suffers a lot. The bullfight I went to the meat was given to the poor.
3 AnswersOther - Cultures & Groups1 decade agoIs one of the mormon beliefs that mormon men will become gods over their own planets?
One of the doctrines of the Mormon church states that Mormon men, after they die, will inhabit their own planet and, along with their many wives, will produce numerous spiritual children. When this spiritual family becomes large enough, the father will be given the power to create another world (or earth) for those children, both male and female, and they will be sent to that earth in order to learn the difference between good and evil, learn and follow the teachings of the Mormon religion, and also produce children with "temporal" (or earthly) bodies in which the spiritual children from the father's previous world will enter (in the case of this earth, the number of spiritual children already exceeds many billions). These earthly children (males) must then follow the doctrines of the Mormon church so they also will become gods over their own planets when they die. It is through this progression that the Mormons teach how Adam was born on another planet and then came to this earth.

13 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoNowadays, how do you tell the difference between a hooker and a regular woman?
I belong to a neighborhood committee which includes a downtown area and we are supposed to report any illegal incidents or suspicious people to the police, but it's exceedingly difficult to tell who are the hookers from other women....they both dress alike.

6 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoIs the reason we are losing in Iraq after 5 years because Bush has privatized the war?
Halliburton and subsidiaries have over 100,000 contractors/mercenaries in Iraq. Jobs that were previously done by the military are now being done (after being trained by our soldiers) by Halliburton and they are about as bad as the private company who was doing Walter Reed maintenance. Watch
the documentary Iraq for Sale: War Profiteers and hear it from soldiers and former Halliburton employees. It's been running on cable TV.

31 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoDo you want proof that Bush lies? 1 of 1000?
Lie #1 Stay the Course. During an October 22, 2006 interview on ABC’s This Week, President Bush tried to distance himself from what has been his core strategy in Iraq for the last three years. George Stephanopoulos asked about James Baker’s plan to develop a strategy for Iraq that is “between ’stay the course’ and ‘cut and run.’”
Bush responded, ‘WE'VE NEVER BEEN STAY THE COURSE.'
BUSH: We will stay the course. [8/30/06]
BUSH: We will stay the course, we will complete the job in Iraq. [8/4/05]
BUSH: We will stay the course until the job is done, Steve. And the temptation is to try to get the President or somebody to put a timetable on the definition of getting the job done. We’re just going to stay the course. [12/15/03]
BUSH: And my message today to those in Iraq is: We’ll stay the course. [4/13/04]
BUSH: And that’s why we’re going to stay the course in Iraq. And that’s why when we say something in Iraq, we’re going to do it. [4/16/04] etc.

2 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoHow many Bush Administration officials does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: None. There is nothing wrong with the light bulb; it's conditions are improving every day. Any reports of its lack of incandescence are delusional spin from the liberal media. That light bulb has served honorably, and anything you say undermines the lighting effect. Why do you hate freedom?
