Apathy is destroying the U.S, not fear. Genuinely frightened people will usually make at least some attempt to defend themselves, while the reaction by most Americans to our government blatantly destroying the rule of law as it heads full steam into becoming a fascist police state is to do nothing.

If this thread demonstrates nothing else, it is clear proof that this country desperately needs a school voucher program.

I saw the film about six months ago and was confused by some of the plot elements. I suppose it's a movie that should be watched more than once to completely understand what's going on, but I didn't find it compelling enough to warrant the extra effort.

What stuns me is the price of that ridiculous contraption is projected to be fifteen to twenty thousand dollars. That is absolutely ridiculous. So is the whole concept of a hybrid vehicle. If you think the car you're driving now is a bottomless cash pit, just wait until you're forced to drive an...

Not a single person has included latkes in their menu. What the hell is wrong with you people? Have you no sense of civilized decency? Or has that wedge of dried out pastry suckins' permanently stuck to the roof of your mouth dried out your taste buds? I've said it before: there is no hope...

A dibbuk (dybbuk) is the soul of an evil person that has escaped the confines of Gehenna and can possess the body of humans and animals. It is not a powerful minion of the debbil, as demons are often portrayed in Christian theology. The article also mentions a keselim, a vicious elemental spirit...

If you've bothered to do your research on this subject with an objective approach, two things become manifestly clear: The environmental movement is primarily based on political and social convictions, not science. We are witnessing the rebirth of an ancient worldwide religious cult which is...

Germans!!! I knew they would have to have a hand in it somehow. They always do.

The March to Folly proceeds unhindered. The fault cannot be assigned to anyone but the American people and our irresponsible, stupid behavior. In the first month of his presidency, the savior Obama has proved to be just another stalking horse for the usual mob of political predators. "Say hello...

This is an animation test clip of a Ray Harryhausen version of H.G.Wells's War of the Worlds. It may seem crude in comparison to modern CG efforts, but I'm sure the finished product would have been considerably better. The creature is also the only cinematic version of a Martian that resembles...

Absolutely. Never place an iota of trust in anything posted on Rense's abomination of a site. Take a gander at the the article links on the home page. About a quarter of them lead to neo-nazi rants that could have been written by Joe "the gimp" Goebbels himself. Why I...

I say Kinky Friedman would be a better choice. Ron White sweats too much.

It's a shame so many people are put off by political discussions. What sets the Paracast boards apart from most others is the civility and restraint the users display towards one another, even when they radically disagree. Are political debates the proper venue for a site dedicated to exploring...

I'm afraid my puny little brain can only offer three observations on this thread: That joke front page isn't too far from the actual partisan venom the press has been spewing out on Bush for eight years. Subjective mud slinging instead of objective reporting. Keep your opinions on the...

They'd have to be crazy. <object width="425" height="344"> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/zWCEFvbbdQk&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></object> <object width="425" height="344"> <embed...

Oy!!!! Seriously, I've heard better music on a Commodore 64. There is simply no excuse for this.

Let's stop for a moment to deal with facts, not the distortions offered by uninformed opinion. The first and original "crusade" was initiated by Muslims, not Christians. It began after the death of the "prophet" Mohamed in the seventh century and did not end until the Ottomans were defeated for...

I thought it was all about the billions the gubbamint will raise by auctioning off the vacated bandwidth to telecom companies. Meh.

Am I the only one who finds these people to be more than a little unsettling? How can we be sure they aren't strangling virgins in bogs and burning victims in wicker cages? And they all look dirty.

Thanks, Crow, for posting that video. It was great.
