I have no intention of building a new "religion" group. My idea is to build a website that would grow into a center of guidance for doubting people, with ramifications going into many subjects like medical, philosophical, engineering, ecology and environment, political awareness, forums and blogs, and above all an ethical charter that would guarantee respect to all and to offer answers when they are available and reports on the limits of knowledge when they are not.
This may sound utopical and it would certainly start very small, but with the help of writers that could post articles and physicians that could counsel the faith depressed, some activist goals and the search for some sponsors, this might just launch.
Ok if this is BS just tell me, I´m just trying to unite in ideology, not to build a cult.
Common sense should not need rescuing, but it does. Especially now.

If the U.S offered free health care and education we would finally be on the right path...I don't see how these two things could make this country worse...We offer other socialistic programs Medicaid, Social Security, Wefare....

I have family in Colombia and I visit them between 1 to 3 months every other year, but I still have a heavy American accent. Is there a way to eliminate it or at least reduce it? Will regular classes with a native speaker work? Will practicing with a tape recorder over and over certain words work?

I am a 32 year old male who has smoked heavily for almost 18 years. Last week I had excruciating pain underneath my right shoulder blade. It was so bad I was getting nauseous from the pain when I took a breath. The next morning when I coughed up the regular phlegm that smokers have in the morning, there was bright pink blood in the phlegm. I went to my doctor immediately but could only get a nurse practitioner, but I was assured that an MD (not a radioloigst) would look at my chest xray. They didn't see anything in the xray (the general practitioners at the office) but I felt the pain and saw the blood and I'm really worried, and need some advice on what to do next.. Obvioulsy I should quit smoking - which is what I'm going to do... I have a scrip for Chantix, this has scared me enough that I am quitting..
Should I insist on seeing a lung specialist? Should I get someone else to look at the xray? I'm relatively young but the pain and the blood really scared me...

CNN exit polls showed that about 65% of those who earn less than $15,000 voted for Democrat Kerry in 2004. And, about 65% of those who earn MORE than $200,000 voted for Republican Bush.

I believe the polls also showed that Republicans were also more likely to be regular church-goers.

So is a person's willingness to support a party's platform largely determined by his/her income and belief in religion?

Can any one tell me what happened to Salem black label cigarettes from Winston-Salem? They've been sold out everywhere. If they are in fact discontinued, then, why? I haven't found anything on it. About ready for boycott of RJ Reynolds. It's eerie I've looked for quite a while online and even their site and have found no mention of them being discontinued or recalled... I figured I could find some archive some where..

and complain about how there is not any plant life or worse waste water on watering their lawn or what not? I am not a genius, however I know this is the desert and water is scarce in this environment. Lake Mead is drying up due to these idiots and I think the water could be used for something better, such as drinking water. I personally think there should be a local tax placed on how much water usage a person does, if it is not already put in place. This will become a crisis if left unchecked.
