Ask someone for their opinion and see how easy it is to get a conversation going?
What makes me feel confused is that I don't know why "for their opinion" appears in this sentence. Since "ask someone" is here, I guess it should be "his or her opinion". If using "their" then is should be "opinions". after that.

Hello,
I would like to get anyone opinion on this subject. I have a cousin from each side of my family that is autistic. I am so afraid that my son will become autistic. I know that there is no cure or no one is able to say for sure why people get this. I have read on a few websites that some people believe that giving children vaccinations with mercury is a trigger for developing autism. Tell me what you think. Do you agree, disagree. How do you feel about this topic? Will you allow you allow your children to have any vaccinations that contain mercury.

The only thing is that you must be present when the world ends and die along with everyone else.

An Example... A white woman in a question 'Do mexicans look like filipinos' replied with "They all look like humans to me"

The question wasnt even questioning if they are human or not.The woman is obviously so scared of issues of race and appearance that she over compensates with that. Of course we all look like humans, but we look different too. Unless you're twins.

Why reply with that message? Are you so afraid of being called a racist that you hide behind that answer whenever it comes up?

So are you whites just hiding from the issue or do you really see a black and white next to each other and think "Oh wow they look like twins"?

It is commonly said that the future of mankind depends on leaving Earth. It will cost quite a bit of money to get to outer space. An average joe like me coudn't afford it. Do you think politicians will pass laws privatizing space colonization before it's even the kind of thing mainstream America thinks about?

How come the news media spends a lot of time focusing on stupid, random, irrelevant topics when there is a war going on and thousands of people are getting murdered every day? Should we spend less time being involved in Paris Hilton's life and more on the decisive issues like Iraq and the World Economy?

I’m referring to the dumb and dumber videos on youtube, otherwise known as Kirk Cameron and Ray Comfort; they claim that it is no coincidence that the banana is a perfect fit in the human hand, it has a pop top and is angled to make it easier for us to eat it. I’m laughing as I type this because it’s so freakin stupid! Why don’t they realize that the modern banana is the product of thousands of years of human agriculture? Just like sheep and cattle don’t look anything like their wild ancestors.

I have faith that Jesus was not God. Just like I have faith that David Koresh was not God (or we're all in trouble).

I also have faith that Christians will feel sorry for me because I have faith in something besides some dude that walked the earth 2000 years ago.

P.S. I don't need or want your pitty.

I know I've heard it and now I've been asked to supply scripture proof of where it says that Jesus is coming in the Eastern sky.

oh, and by the way, go to myspace.com/stevelotto and you'll hear a song by Disciple called Going Home. In its chorus, you'll hear him say, "I've seen Jesus comin' in the Eastern sky, and I'm going home." such a tight song, you gotta listen to it with headphones or some tight system to get the bass guitar solos in there.

Thanks guys.

It seems that with current technology and medical advances we have what we need to save us from death. Is everyone so damn sure that there is a "God" that we are just going to give up? I am not ready to give up. WHat do you think? And any doctors out there working with gene therapy give a shout out man!!!!

I think they left the show as we saw it. Nothing happened. And I don't think it's clever to have people discussing the ending like this...

But for the ones saying he got whacked... that when the screen went black... Tony died... wouldn't our brains still process the sound of the gun shot, even if it was extremely brief?

You heard the door bell chime, something tells me you would pick up on the initial gun blast...

...or would you not process the sound at all?

this would help me disprove or approve of this theory.

Thx ;)

I've read over the past few hours that Global Warming will make the only fresh source of water be in Canada.

First off, desalination is allways a ready process... and you don't even need fuel to do it. (Survival 101), simply get a pan, and a opaque plastic sheet (not wrap) and fold the sheet into a tent, the sun will evaporate the water and the water will dribble down as deionized H2O. (Even days of pumping means after that time, there would be a steady stream)

Even besides that, rain will always occur. Think of the atmosphere like a sponge, eventually all this heat will cause the sponge to rapidly fill with water (evaporation) and then, when full, the sponge has to release water back down again. (Don't cite deserts... there are geographic reasons for that. And it DOES rain in a desert) (And YES, Polution can cause 'acid rain' but only once)

So explain this 'theory' without saying 'It just is' or 'Wikipedia said so' or 'I heard it from a guy who knows Stephen Hawking'
