You call that plain speaking? I'm sure you're aware that no such evidence exists. Therefore your statement is pretentious.Plainly spoken it would have been "Any Christians wanna rumble?! :)

My captcha says rubAue which I believe is French for 'hick from the sticks'. Not trying to make any association there. I just wanted to play along.musycks I am curious to know why you rated this idea negatively. It seems compatible with your view. Is poetry your only complaint? Being an atheist doesn't mean poo-pooing everything that isn't science. As a musician/writer I'd expect you to have a greater appreciation of expressionistic ideas.

Ideally, I would share my ideas equally with you but I don't subscribe to such communist ideology. Instead I'll give you some culled from the internet which I assume are common license.1. Idea is the Bee Gees' third album on the ATCO label, released in August, 1968.2. Idea is a genus of butterflies known as Tree nymphs or Paper butterflies.3. International Data Encryption Algorithm.4. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, Public Law PL 105-17.5. "An idea that is not dangerous is unworthy of being called an idea at all." -Oscar WildeNow you're up to six. That's practically enough to write a book (God only had 10)or at least manage an angry blog. Good luck.
Above average intelligence - below average education (misanthropism X atheism/romanticism) = The sort of jackass that would attempt to explain himself in a mathmatical formula.

I respect your work as a physician and your efforts to counsel against suicide but your legal efforts are irresponsible and pretentious. Especially given your agnostic stance on the issue. I'd understand if you had a moral opposition. I'd even accept, though not condone, a competitive stance as assisted suicide is the ultimate in palliative care. Instead you offer the weak argument that legalization of assisted suicide wouldn't make things better. I ask for whom? You're statement that it isn't a Human Rights issue is semantic garbage. It's true that it shouldn't be. Like other hot button issues (i.e. abortion, gay marriage, marijuana) we shouldn't HAVE to make it legal. However, what choice do we have in the face of criminalization?As long as you actively oppose personal freedoms you have no business calling yourself progressive.
