  1. Look around the World, when people decide not to participate, they gain power to overthrow the system in a revolution.
  2. Internet like anything is make-shift. God is underdetermining everything.
  3. Life can repair damages done by mutations. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutation
  4. Don't wary, be happy!?
  5. Science, not life, is caught in this paradox.
  6. Kenneth Arrow has proven that far from been served, democracy is caught in a paradox. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow's_i...ibility_theorem

  12. Yes. When I was busy working at polluting the Earth, I was also very fast to make use of all those ready-made prejudices against welfare recipients.

  18. It means that those people who are rushing in Alberta to overexploit natural resources will be able to get more easily a majority government that will then be able to block any attempt to curb negative externalities.
  19. Shame on Canadians who don't want to be convinced that Canada could be the World's savior if only our country was governed by someone unlike Harper, Ignatieff, Duceppe and Layton.
  20. A religious conversion is a revolutionary act.
  21. What we call the rule of law is mostly the rules that a bunch of lawyers, formed in some select law schools (Yale, etc.), come to agree upon.
  22. Caution: after righteousness comes perdition.
  23. Caution: after euphoria comes depression.
