At age 19 I discovered Pot. Wow! "I thought this is the life". I heard different versions of it of how safe or Dangerous it is to use. I quit for seven years realizing it was a stupid thing to do. Yet with all the economy problems...

irdsm1 I'm sorry you had an addict mother. I'd hardly blame weed though. Weed in the hands of a responsible adult is not harmful. The gateway drug theory is a laughingstock. Marijuana does not have an inherent property that makes you chase harder drugs. In fact,...

irdsm1 Marijuana is neither physically dangerous nor addictive. Any danger from marijuana comes from the fact you are inhaling burning plant matter. That is it. THC is a perfectly harmless substance, and it is not physically addictive. Any addiction a person has to...

Over the past few weeks I have been wondering, mostly for personal reasons, if it would be possible for a self-acclaimed Atheist to believe in demons (or any other spiritual realm inhabitor, or more so than that: a spirit realm at...

irdsm1 Not so. As an atheist I believe in many things. I believe in matter, I believe in energy. I believe in evolution, I believe in freedom, I believe in the physical, I believe in the psychological. What I don't believe in is god/s or other supernatural beings. I...

irdsm1 Well, I wouldn't say it is impossible for what we believe to be demons to be residual energies or what have you, but most atheists (and again, I don't speak for all) tend to be fairly logically or scientifically motivated. The pure lack of scientific evidence...

irdsm1 Thanks! It feels good. It was a pain to do: it took me almost 3 hours to get all the hair off! but it was worth it and I like the look and feel. Dan

I personally don't think it's a good energy source. Many people eat corn in every meal, and live by corn. They wouldn't survive without corn. And if the corn prices get's high, they wouldn't afford it. There are also less food...

irdsm1 Hemp is made from the marijuana plant. IMO hemp wouldn't make a good fuel: Not clean enough burning and not suitable for ethanol production. While I believe that it should be legalized, it is for moral and constitutional reasons, not because it is useful....

I hear this a lot: "They're just 'food animals' so who cares how they are treated if they are born to die anyway?" When it comes to domesticated animals, this same kind of treatment would NOT fly. (Right?) Let's say here in...

irdsm1 What you are implying is that despite the millions of years of evolution making us into omnivorous (plant and animal eating) animals that completely neglecting a basic dietary need is better for us than eating it. In order to get the nutrients out of a...

When I was young, I was well on my way to becoming a pretty good liberal. Why? I was naive enough to buy their propaganda. I heard the songs and watched the tv shows and movies, all showing me that liberals care about people....

irdsm1 I'm glad you took the sarcasm the way it was meant. I didn't mean any insult to any conservatives out there. I do think that a two party system destroys the government. All independent parties stand little to no chance of winning an election ever. And that...

What's wrong with George W. Bush? In my own perception, he isn't suited for a president.

irdsm1 errmm...Obama is not muslim (he doesn't practice the religion=not muslim) and his race is not Islamic. He is from African blood. His father was a prominent African leader. As for Hilary: While she may be a lesbian, that should have nothing to do with it. I...

Do you think it is right that PETA is seeking suspension of the jockey who rode Eightbelles during the Kentucky Derby? Or is it just one of those accidents that happen during horse racing?

irdsm1 Yes, they have. They kill 85% of the animals in their custody. And not in humane ways either, one of their facilities was stocked with rifles and very old gas chambers. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2005/06/23/EDG11DC9BK1.DTL Also...

irdsm1 I am enjoying it very much. The characters look and move very realistically. They have flexibility when they die like humans, but they don't do the flailing rag doll thing when they die. It's like they have actual skeletons stuff. Very fun, especially when...

irdsm1 I would highly recommend it. The storyline is awesome and the online gameplay alone makes it worth $60. Thanks for the response! Dan

irdsm1 Yeah, I saw that discussion. I can sympathize with them and understand why they did it, but I don't think I'd do it myself. Maybe if I was having a really crappy couple of weeks I'd take a "mental health day" for a new game, but I wouldn't do it *just* because...
