Still haven’t fully processed the idea, but to some extent I think the idea of limiting the population is not because the whole earth won’t be able to provide for its population.

This is a commercial for Israeli cellphone carrier cellcom, the commercial ends with “what, after all, do we all want? To have a little fun.”

West Vs. East, Religious Vs. Secular, Conservative Vs. Liberal and many of the other argument where two people, parties of groups stand at polar opposites of each other. In those discussions all the arguments really boil down to a very simple but crucial point. One party will be fearful of change and resistant of it, [...]

Are things quiet now ? well they shouldn’t be.
About a week ago or so there was a campaign by kinzi to send letters, messages, and write posts denouncing “honor” killings.
