Since then

Wow, that last post was a long one, no wonder no one commented! Or is it just that you're all too afraid to take a stand on racially-charged issues? Anyway, I move on...

So there has been lots of press about the shootings at Virginia Tech. Now it's time for the anti-gun advocates to come out of the woodwork to blame this on the gun industry. Are you serious people? For the last time, guns don't kill people, PEOPLE kill people. This was once MESSED UP individual. If you want to blame anyone, blame the people who didn't put him in a padded cell after they were warned of what he was writing about.

Guns will always be around. The more you try to ban them, the more they will go underground and more people will die trying to buy and sell them. That said, is it necessary for everyday citizens to have fully-automatic assault rifles? Probably not. How about this, if you want to buy one, you have to register yourself like a sex offender. That way everyone in your neighborhood will know that you own one and will make sure that they don't piss you off. If you buy more than one, you will have to register again. Or maybe we build a wall around Montana and let anyone who wants to have high powered weapons live there? Make it a Survivor, like what the commercials in Grand Theft Auto 3 talked about. A whole ton of guns, let everyone seek each other out, and the winner gets to be governor. Sure, you'll have trouble trying to get more people to move into your state, but you'd get to won all the guns you want! After all, it's your constitutional right!

Let me preface this by saying "I don't believe everything I see on TV." However, couldn't we just register every gun with its CSI-certified rifling grooves or whatever?

That way every bullet ever fired would be traced back to the owner. And...and...AND! it would give people an incentive to register their subsequent firearms sales. I think that if a future homocide was going to be tied back to you, it would give you motive to report a stolen weapon as well.

In responds to comments by MCO and That Guy…

Since we know that it is mathematically impossible for the conditions of the universe to be conducive for life, combined with the non-existent chance that once those conditions were met amino acids would still some how arrange themselves in the correct order to form proteins and finally a fully functioning, living, reproductive capable cell without genetic information to guide this process suggests a source beyond the natural universe as the “cause” for life’s existence.

But in responds to the analogy that there are many kinds of automobiles (like there are many kinds of life, perhaps even kinds completely different then ours that may have evolved under different conditions than our needs demand) it must be pointed out that all autos, of any variety, are the product of engineering…design. The same would be true for “exo-skeletal dolphins”.

But hypothetical life out in the universe and how it evolved is beside the point. For we know that mathematics defeats the viewpoint that life on Earth could have arisen by natural forces since it is mathematically impossible for the right conditions to be met let alone the formation of the first cell without pre-existing DNA to direct that formation. It’s like the chicken or the egg question, which came first, the answer, is neither could on their own because both are reliant on each other. The same is true with DNA and the first cell.

So there is no need for blind faith in Darwinian evolution, since math has already resolved the issue of whether or not it is possible.

BTW, I'm not afraid to comment on racial issues. I just nodded off in the middle of your 10 paragraph diatribe.

I understand the concept of "variable reward" but you gotta get some more posts on this site if you want people to get into the habit of visiting.

Isn't the point of this to be able to quit your day job?
