I just came accross an article which says that according to police reports in Canada, 79% of people Taser-zapped by police there were not armed. And the author of this article says this statistic suggests that police use Tasers as a quick means to keep low risk suspects in line.
http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20071118/taser_reports_071118/20071118?hub=TopStories

But this practice of giving very painful electrical shocks to unarmed suspects in order to make them comply sounds a lot like torture to me. Actually, Saddam Hussein and many other dictators in other places have routinely used electrical shocks to torture their prisoners into submission.

Is the use of Tasers on unarmed suspects a kind of torture that is now allowed in Canadian society?

He also gave the lectures just by clucking like a chicken. Is there something wrong with him? Would he grow up to be some wacko?

Our three children receive many cards on birthdays and special occasions. Should the cards be kept, or is it okay to throw them out?

Start with a bacterium. Does it have a soul and does it get an afterlife? A bacterium is a cell membrane filled with a variety of molecules. These molecules react together in different ways to create what we call life. Although all of these molecules are reacting in fascinating, interlocking ways, they are still nothing more than chemicals reacting. The "miracle of life" is no miracle -- it is a big chemical reaction. When those reactions stop, the cell is dead.

Now here is the question: When the bacterium dies, does it get an afterlife?

There are not many people in the United States who believe that bacteria go to heaven. The Bible does not talk about heaven being filled with all the disease, putrefaction and pestilence that bacteria cause. And what, exactly, would go to heaven? Do all of the bacterium's molecules get transported to another dimension so that they can keep reacting? If that were happening, there would be thousands of tons of chemicals leaving earth every day.

Does this explanation of a pope make sense?

The pope is the head of the Catholic church and is the main spiritual leader.
He lives in Vatican City.
The pope's main job is to make final decisons when it comes to keeping or changing the Catholic tradition.

Thank-You.
All answers greatly appreciated.
Suggestions welcome.

In 2005, in a state of the Union address Pres Bush mentioned the Social Secutity program is in trouble, and asked for a bipartisan study of the issue.People painted him as the man who was out to steal our social security, and members of congress said there was nothing wrong with it.Now, with 60 million baby boomers about to sign up for social security, people are starting to worry about it, and some politicians are agreeing, there may be a problem.
Could it be Pres Bush was thinking of the next generation, while our politicians were thinking of the next election.
Pres Bush has every right to say "I told you so."

Should we normalize every tradition, as if it something that we all just do on a certain day of the year? What ever happened to the cultural meaning and the significance of traditions? Should we set aside why we have traditions, just for the sake of doing something every year that is fun for everyone?
