Situation taken from a judge's decision: The crew of an English yacht were cast away in a storm on the high seas. In this boat they had no supply of water and no supply of food....that on the 18th day they suggested that one should be sacrificed to save the rest. That next day they went to the boy put a knife into his throat and killed him; that the 3 men fed upon the body of the boy for 4 days; that on the 4th day after the act had been commited the boat was picked up by a passing vessel and they were rescued, still alive. They were carried to the port of Falmouth and committed for trial. If the men had not fed upon the body of the boy they would probably not have survived to be picked up and rescued, but would within the 4 days have died of famine. The boy being in a much weaker condition, was likely to have died before them.... The real question is whether killing under the the conditions set forth be or be not murder. What factors should the judge take into account?

The very basic princaple as to why our country worked in the 1st place, I belive is because of one basic principle, In God we trust. It just seems to me that the more we allow God to be removed from our nation the more our nation deteriorates. One nation under God indivisable for liberty and justice for all. It seems to me that our nation is divided and I belive that a nation divided against itself cannot stand. Just a note I consider myself politically as a liberal, not a conservative.

I'm writing a short story featuring this idea, and I can't think of what this is called... "aiding and abetting?" (I'm probably getting it all wrong.)

I'd appreciate some clarity. Thanks.

Do you approve of the job the various law enforcement agencies, intelligence agencies, and military are doing in keeping us safe against terror? I'm not asking about the government. I'm asking about the FBI, CIA, NSA, DHS, etc.

Who do you see winning the 2008 presidential election? I'm not asking who you WANT to win, just who you THINK will win.

And do you think the new president will be better than Bush?

I personally think that he(or she) will be. Both parties have some great candidates. McCain, Giuliani, and Hagel with the Reps. Clinton, Edwards, Obama, and even Kerry with the Dems. I don't really think we can go wrong in 2008.

It would be hard for the next president to be as incompetent as this one is. And that's not any partisan leanings speaking. That's sanity.

How would you feel about a new party? What party do you belong to and how would you say you show your support to your party?

I was reading an article in Sunday's Houston Chronicle on a professor from the University of Texas named Eric Pianka, who in regards to caring for the environment, and lessening one's imprint on the earth, stated that it more or less doesn't really matter. Quoting the article, "In truth, it backfires", and "when you walk or ride a bike or drive a Prius, all you do is encourage some expletive out there to drive a Hummer or an Excursion."

Is the professor right, that it doesn't really matter what you do? That environmental preservation efforts aren't really worth it?

Thoughtful answers please, not reactionary stuff. I'm not saying I agree or disagree with him: I'm just curious if anyone read this and what they think. Here's the article: http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/4143416.html

Tonight, I watch our president stroll through the ruble of New Orleans and dodge question from Brian Williams. Bush does a good song and dance but he's a little short when it comes to backing up his words. So far, his administration has shown us just how far ignorance will get you.

In a scene filled with theatrics and rhetoric, an anti-immigration activist from Los Angeles was barred from entering Sunday services at a West Side church where Elvira Arellano, an illegal Mexican immigrant, has taken refuge from authorities.

That's no church I ever heard of.
