Opinions
I do not believe in soulmates.
I do not enjoy cooking. I enjoy when someone else does the cooking while I relax and have a drink, and then eat once the food is ready.
I never attend religious services. Only if I forget the address to the wedding ceremony
宗教がなかったら世界は今より良くなる。 It would be a world free of the beliefs that have inspired the worst atrocities, a world where people would reason and think, and where fantastic claims without evidence would be openly rejected
I buy lottery tickets. Every once in a while, specially if the pot is large, and although the probabilities are very small, someone always wins.
Employers should not block personal e-mail access on company computers. I don't think its fair that employers block access to private e-mail accounts in company pc's, while expecting one to access one's work e-mail account away from the office using remote access (VPN) or blackberry. If they want to keep private life away from the office, then its just fair that work be kept away from private life.
I have never smoked marijuana.
I do not ride motorcycles.
道徳と宗教は公共政策を作る上で決して影響するべきではない。
マリファナは合法化されるべきだ。 Legalize it, tax it and use the income to finance educational programs. I don't think marijuana is worse than alcohol.
同性愛は不道徳ではない。 What does morality have to do with sexual preference?
Dogs are better pets than cats. I think Dogs are loyal while Cats are self interested (although Cats are easier to take care and are cleaner)
Racial discrimination is still a significant problem in America. It probably is, but its clearly becoming less and less over time.
It is not appropriate to talk on the phone while using a public restroom. And you don't even know who may be listening, so its not even wise to do so.
President Obama's statement about Henry Louis Gates, Jr.'s arrest was not appropriate. He probably over reacted and should have kept silent. But in the end, its not a major issue, so lets focus on more substantive issues.
神は正しい。 God is just ............. not there.
政治的適合性は恋愛関係において重要な要素である。 Extreme political views in opposite directions are cause of conflict in most relationships
Marijuana is not a gateway drug. Gateway to the munchies! I have the impression that there is much more consumption of marijuana than all the other drugs combined, and that fact in and of itself indicates that it is not.
There is equality among those in Heaven. Yes, they are equally not there.
Viewing pornography is not the equivalent of cheating.
子供がいる夫婦はいない夫婦より幸せである。 Hard to say, since one can only talk about one's own experience (either with or without kids) and perceptions about the happiness of others may be misleading. Although my experience with kids is relatively recent, I can clearly state without doubt that I am happily exhausted.
Couples should not celebrate Valentine's Day. No, this is a commercial trick to make people spend money. Couples should celebrate being together as often as they can (life is short).
Humans are inherently good. Most humans are inherently good, but some are bad
References to God or religion should be left out of U.S. Presidential Inaugurations. We are not a theocracy, references to god should be kept inside the church (if they have to exist at all).
米国は奴隷制について公的な謝罪を発表するべきである。
God is neither man nor woman; God is an illusion.
Casual sex is not immoral. As long as you are not married.
The demand side of the drug trade should have a higher priority in America's War on Drugs. As long as there is demand, there will always be supply, particularly if efforts to reduce supply result in higher prices
米国は米国旗を燃やすことを禁じる憲法改正を制定するべきではない。
映画の中の暴力は社会の暴力に影響している。
疑念は信仰の一部となりえない。
Undocumented immigrants should be granted in-state tuition benefits.
Faith-based organizations should pay taxes. All businesses should pay taxes, including those that sell spiritual services (its all about money)
合衆国憲法は結婚を一人の男性と一人の女性の結合と定義するように修正されるべきではない。
避妊具の使用は不道徳ではない。
学校は知能設計を科学理論として教えるべきではない。
Homosexuality is not a choice.
The government should not allow same-sex couples to adopt children.
Islam will become Europe's predominant religion. It seems unstoppable
政府の資金は宗教的目的で使われるべきではない。
