prudencemadness Even if the case is that the APC was rammed through the hotel front doors, it is still Trillanes' group that took over a private property which is the Manila Peninsula Makati, which is unacceptable. If he wanted to stage a protest, he should have done so in a...

I am hearing many mixed messages about this movie. Even from the media. I've heard it's just a children's movie, and something to take the family to. Then I began to hear that the author is an athiest and in his books, the...

prudencemadness I just hope people will read a book thoroughly before pronouncing a judgment on it. I have a read the trilogy. To be accurate about this, Lyra and Will (the two children being depicted as the new Adam and Eve) did not kill God, who in this book is one of...

prudencemadness Well, it is a personal choice if you want to see a movie or not. But to have an opinion of a movie that you haven't seen will certainly not have the same credibility as the opinion of someone who has seen the movie.

prudencemadness It's funny that most of the people who're against the showing of the movie, The Golden Compass, are those who haven't read a page of the book. What I'm really irked about is not the protests, because they're entitled to it, but rather the clamor for...

prudencemadness Breaking in to a private hotel in itself is a violation of individual's property rights. How can we expect a person like that to lead the country to a major change?

prudencemadness I'd agree that there should be separation of the state and the church. While that most churches just couldn't help but inject political views in their teachings, the Westboro Baptist Church just way stepped over that fine line. Not only their acts are quite...

prudencemadness Well, we'll never know if Teri Hatcher didn't really protest about the use of such dialogue in the TV show. Who knows? Maybe she did protest, got into an argument with the scriptwriter, and just ended up saying it because she lost the argument or something...

prudencemadness Well, if you've been watching House closely, he's made several racist remarks already. Remember that episode in Season 2 in which he asked his former med school classmate why he only got published in an obscure medical journal in India where "2+2=5"? I think...
