  • Men need to be careful about Viagra..

    It diverts the blood flow from your brain and sends it to the cylindrical pendulous. But, on a lighter note, many men confuse the two when it comes to thought and judgement, anyway. LMAO

  • The Rights of the Resurrected

    What bothers me about the prospect of ''bringing to life'' a Neanderthal is not that we would be selectively modifying nearly-Human DNA, but the prospect of the terrible life that poor Neanderthal would lead. After all, if there is a good chance he or she will be able to speak or understand language, then there is also a very good chance that he ...

  • Sarah is a symptom of America's ignorance of mental illness

    She is the political equivalent of Britney and Paris, and, I believe, a very dangerous women. We have GOT to stop putting these people in office Compare her to this: Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is a personality disorder defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, the diagnostic classification system used in ...

  • Immutability Schmootability

    In the matter of gay civil rights, why should it matter whether or not homosexuality is genetic? Human beings are famous for going against the grain (whether that grain tends toward the gay or the straight). Doesn't this country protect individual rights, including the right of the individual to choose the partner and create the family and ...

  • RE: the future as we don't know it

    Technology, bio or otherwise, is a complex and twisted thread that winds around and through our society. It takes us on great journeys, big and small, teaches and supports us, and complicates our lives. And, as you say, Mr. Saletan (Bill?), how and where it will go is a mystery. It reminds me a lot of the late 90's and the Internet Balloon. Here ...

  • Blackwater or Debt Collections with UAV?

    Let's assume nobody here is in a war zone. Because in a war zone, the US military has a wide discretion to determine who's a target and whose not, and this technology does NOT show who is 'good' and who is 'bad'. And Pentagon released data about new technology tends NOT to reveal the downsides or flaws in its usage. Why? Because some Pentagon ...

  • Sexual Hypocrisy, Law Enforcement & the InterNET

    Thanks for a very interesting and thoughtful article that addressed current events, came up with new approaches, and put it all together neatly in one, entertaining article. My view on those folks who would employ our law enforcement authorities to charge and convict individual InterNET users, is somewhat different. I see these forceful, legal ...

  • What's with the hard sell?

    Why do I have to see a HUMONGOUS advertisement for this lame article on the homepage? Isn't it clear from the comments that this article is not worthy of our efforts? Believe me, we've tried to read it, but the layout makes it too difficult and it's BORING - we've heard this all before, somewhere else, and better - even the rickrolling - you must ...

  • Exceptions that prove the rule

    While I agree with Saletan's premise that it is better to eat lab-grown meat than traditionally produced meat, I deny the idea that people are incapable of reducing their meat consumption before lab-grown meat is available. His daughter may have learned from baby food to want meat, but my cousin's children, in their vegetarian mother's household, ...
