I live in Hamilton, work as district manager with the beer store, and play in a semi-pro celtic band.
Is organized religion evil?
There are good points to it; they do good deeds, foster a sense of community etc.
But all those things could be done with a social club without religion.
I look all over the world and almost every war is directly because of religion. i.e. muslim vs. christian, christian vs. jew etc
So why don't we ban religion worldwide, and instead have non religious social clubs to continue some of the good things from religion?
People are still free to worship in their own homes, but not in public.

2 AnswersDecorating & Remodeling1 decade agoIf President Bush were killed today, what would it mean for the USA and the world?
Would there be more stability? Less stability? Would the USA rejoin the global community? Who would take over next?
There are so many diferent things that could happen and so many questions to answer. Lets hear your thoughts.
17 AnswersOther - Politics & Government1 decade agoWill Canada and the USA ever join together?
What would it mean for people from both countries? What about the world?
In my opinion, Canada is an amazingly resource rich society, and the USA would love their oil sands. They would no longer need the middle east, and would probably leave them alone.
Canadians on the other hand would be angry to lose their autonomy, and especially their universal healthcare, assuming they would be forced to assume the USA model of healthcare.

9 AnswersOther - Society & Culture1 decade agoIf its already too late to stop global warming by reducing greenhouse gases, what are our other options?
Scientists are already saying it may be too late.
So, what do we do next? I have heard of crazy plans to reflect the sunlight using white dye in the oceans, and others that are even more nuts.
Of course there is always the option of leaving the planet and destroying a new one somewhere else.
What are your ideas to help save the world if conventional means fail?

5 AnswersSkin Conditions1 decade agoWho should shoulder the blame for the collapse of the North American auto industry?
I blame the following from most to blame to least to blame:
1) Unions: unsklled assembly workers getting $70000+ a year to do something a monkey could do. Theres your problem. How can any company survive with these greedy slackers?
Companies have been forced to put cheaper parts in their cars leading to a lower quality, just to finance these insane wages for a bunch of greedy unions.
2) Design: Concerntrating on SUV's and really doing nothing new with their car designs in the last 20 years has meant that N.A. auto manufacturers have no longer got the attention of car buyers. They seem boring.
3) Oil prices: Killed whatever buying of SUV's was keeping the companies afloat. Also increased their freight costs, their raw materials costs etc.
4) Import ingenuity: Lets face it; Toyota, Hyundai, Honda etc. have simply cut the fat, streamlined operations, designed well around consumer needs, and have great cars at a great price.
4 AnswersCorporations1 decade agoMen only: Faced with death by starvation or eating your own penis, which would you choose?
This is an amazingly difficult question. Even if you survived, why would you want to without your penis?
Assume there are no alternatives to these two options. Starvation, or eat your penis and live.
Obviously this question is only for men.
6 AnswersMen's Health1 decade agoI hate unions....they used to have a point, but now they just make work horrible and protect the lazy. Agree?
No starting this discussion off with "unions built this country blah blah blah you'd still be working 25 hours a day". I know they had their place many years ago.
Now, they do not. They are killing this country in a few ways:
1) Lazy people: They are protected in unions. Not all uneducated people are lazy, but I have seen time and time again complete idiots who should be fired, but we can';t cause they're in a union.
2) Education: Good teachers and pathetic teachers are paid the same. There is no way to get ahead, or reward good teachers. SO...we have many idiot teachers being paid just based on the length of time they've been teaching our children. Many should be fired, but we can't cause they're in a union.
I could go on and on....but i'm out of characters.
One last point: People argue management would walk all over them without unions. Have you ever worked in a non union place? TYPICALLY it is a happier place. Its unions that make a us vs. them workplace.

3 AnswersOther - Society & Culture1 decade agoHelp my wedding! I am using word, and when printing, the bottom half of the document dissapears! WHY?
It is my wedding invitation. Margins are set correctly. Page size is correct. On the worksheet view it looks fine, nothing is even close to being out of margin, off the page etc.
BUT...when you go to the print preview, it cuts off the last 4 lines of text, showing only the top half of the 5th last line.
Anyone have any ideas as to what is going on?
It is not the printer, since the problem is visible in print preview.
PLEASE HELP! IF I CAN"T GET THIS DONE I"LL HAVE TO SPEND $100000000000's of dollars to get these done by someone.
THANKS!

10 AnswersCareers & Employment1 decade agoI left town for 1 week, left my car in the driveway, and now it won't start!?
Its a 2002 echo. My driveway has quite a grade to it and I parked facing the forward. Any chance this affects fluid levels in the engine or something like that?
Now the starter goes click click click but no firing in the engine.
