• Gay Boy Scout Denied Eagle Award Because of His Sexuality

  October 5, 2012 at 9:55am

  In reply to lilmrsellis.

  I question if he is “sexually active”. If not, then it doesn’t matter if he has homosexual or heterosexual feelings. My guess it is more about his atheism, and that is a violation of his oath to his duty to god.

• Bill Ayers: ‘I Get Up Every Morning and Think…Today I’m Going to End Capitalism’

  He could start by giving me all his money so I may re-distribute it.

• Liberal or Conservative? Both Sides Trying to Claim ‘Hunger Games’ As Their Own — Why?

  March 19, 2012 at 6:02pm

  I am sure I will be disappointed in the movie. I’ve read the entire series (after my son introduced it to me). It’s a good story of one person struggling to survive under an oppressive government and trying to keep herself from losing her principles in the process.

• 4th Grader Pens Epic Letter to Local Meteorologist: ‘Unicorn Servants Will Feed You Doughnuts Off Their Horns’

  I look forward to reading the books this kid writes in the future.

• Ethicists Argue in Favor of ‘After-Birth Abortions’ as Newborns ‘Are Not Persons’

  February 28, 2012 at 9:35am

  Is life so cheap now that we would consider murdering our own children? Are we changing the language so that murder is now justified? Where does it end? Do we now “abort” those who are a burden on society? What about those that are old and infirm, the homeless, the handicapped, the soldier who has lost a limb? What about those who are not actively contributing positively to society like criminals, the unemployed, or ethicists? If we don’t protect the sanctity of life, then we go down a road where everyone’s life may be forfeit for little to no reason.

• BYU Student Who Received V-Day Note About ‘Provocative’ Clothes Gets…a Modeling Gig

  In reply to DevoutMaineCatholic.

  Except she wasn’t in violation of the code, and it wasn’t his place to decide that she was.

• Too ‘Provocative?’ See the Outfit One BYU Student Got So Upset About He Wrote a Letter

  February 18, 2012 at 1:38pm

  Seeing as how he didn’t sign the letter, shows he knew she was well within the Honor Code. Someone obviously misunderstands the Church, the Honor Code, and the Gospel.

• Is This the Most Confusing Speed Limit Sign You’ve Ever Seen?

  February 16, 2012 at 10:07am

  And if the police officer’s watch is a couple of minutes fast or slow?

• N.C. Food ‘Inspector’ Sends Girl’s Lunch Home After Determining It’s Not Healthy Enough

  February 14, 2012 at 3:38pm

  In reply to DarthMims.

  Schools with high numbers of free/reduced lunch students have a hard time covering the costs. The government payments don’t cover all the costs of the food, especially considering that the more “healthy” foods cost more. Many schools raise the lunch costs so those that buy lunches help cover the differences.

• Why Is Earth Getting 50,000 Tonnes Lighter Each Year?

  In reply to flipper1073.

  It’s a metric unit equal to 1,000 kg or about 2,205 lbs.
