    Article: USA changes passports from father/mother to parent 1 and parent 2

    Purging YOUR language? The American version of English is so corrupted already I don't think changing the passport forms will make much difference!

    Oppression of progress

    Perhaps not the Bible itself, but people who devoutly believe go to many lengths to stop things that could disprove their religion.

    Omnipotence, omniscience, omnipresence

    Logically, it is impossible to be both omniscient and omnipotent. Can omnipotent God, who knows the future, find the power to change his future mind? The God Delusion - Richard Dawkins

    Oppression of progress

    Don't you think religious outcry and opposition to things like genetic engineering, abortion(although largely failed) and the campaigns to teach creationism as fact (Fortunately only in America, as far as I know) are religious attempts to slow and halt both intellectual and technological progress?

    Oppression of progress

    Religious people (especially Christians) do you believe that it is God's will for the progress of mankind to be slowed and halted by religion, as it has been both through history (Galileo's house arrest, La Purga, Copernicus etc) and today (genetic engineering etc)? Just a thought. I do not...

    Is Nationalism Bad?

    I think nationalism is good in that it tend to lead to fascism. Unfortunately, people have been put off by the idea of fascism due to a few historical dictators (Hitler, Franco etc). However in principle, as long as the ruler is a good and fair one, fascism is a good thing. The trick is finding...

    Why Do Men Oppress Women?

    I think the main reason is that, purely out of anatomical necessity, the mother has always had to stay at home with any young children and the father becomes the man breadwinner upon which the woman is reliant. Psychologically, this makes him superior to her. Also, it's because we're...
