Re: Germany to quit conscription

WFS,

I never said it was sensible. Though both lines originated from Prussia, we still say it's German.

Key,

Ohhh k. Where is the evidence that rights exist, God exists, and that rights are given by God?

Ask any republican, they'll tell you.

Actually Sarah Palin is republican isn't she?  She'll tell you.

=^o.o^= When I'm cute I can be cute.  And when I'm mean, I can be very very mean.  I'm a cat.  Expect me to be fickle.

if I start kicking you in the nuts you won't call on Popular Consensus to spare you

The core joke of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is that of course no civilization would develop personal computers with instant remote database recovery, and then waste this technology to find good drinks.
Steve Jobs has ruined this joke.

i don't think its the state's place to raise parents' children for them.

In the US we have freedom of religion. If a legitimate religion preaches God given rights, then the state must recognize them or they infringe on freedom of religion. So We have god given rights and there is no need to empirically prove God exists or that God gave us the rights; a legitimate religion recognizing them is all thats needed to make them officially exist.
