Re: Music
Fair enough. Imo, Lars comes across as an ambitious guy with a big game plan, kinda like Simon Cowell, and Mustaine, nomatter his talent, would have been too volatile for Lars' liking.Impenitent wrote:imo, Metallica had one decent album, Kill 'em all, then they got rid of Mustaine and never were as good...

Re: Music
Thank you bus2bondi. It is nice to see heavy metal's humanity. Rather than add more on the same theme, I have added an interactive music video from Arcade Fire, http://thewildernessdowntown.com/ . Be aware that it is a bit beefy when it is running so could slow any other PC applications you are usin...

Re: alternatives to taxation
The joys of education in its many forms :roll: . I recall my nephew coming home in tears one day because he had been taught at school that cigarette smoking kills. Both his parents smoked and he pleaded with them to stop so that they wouldn't die. Thankfully the message stayed with him and he has ne...

Re: What is important in life?
There really is only one way to 'see' The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy , and that is by listening to the original version - the Radio Serial. It is available on audiobook. Its great for long car journeys or in a context where you are using your eyes for something else but are able to listen, suc...

Re: Changing names
Marriage and a woman's decision to change her name. Something I never thought of as I exchanged vows. I was now married to the man of my choice and taking his name had nothing to do with being "oppressed" and it never felt like it was archaic. I never had strong feelings about keeping my ...

Re: all muslims are the same
So I suppose Muslims that are also against condom use in the same circumstances are also evil then? correct however all catholics support the church policy in this matter. Not all Catholics are in support or are against condom use. Edited to included 2012 link http://www.catholicsforchoice.org/news...

Re: ethics of Surrogacy
John, I would have thought about asking similar questions but why should it be only to a single man? :D. If I understand your question correctly, I asked this of John, a single man, because this is the subject of this thread. I would also address these questions and comments to any single person co...
