This is all well and good but how are you proposing we glean the energy we need for everything we do? Because we aren’t going to stop doing it.

Very eloquent, but I cannot help but think of one of Woody Allen’s quote: “Rationalization is more important than sex. Can you think of someone who can go an entire week without rationalizing something?” Have Fun.

I don’t think this is what he is saying at all. He is talking about things like the ever expanding array of impotence drugs, dangerous psychotropic medications that we stick our kids on, and vanity products.

Comment on Obama’s Speech on Race by Alan

Compare to Obama:
“I have already condemned, in unequivocal terms, the statements of Reverend Wright that have caused such controversy. For some, nagging questions remain. Did I know him to be an occasionally fierce critic of American domestic and foreign policy? Of course. Did I ever hear him make remarks that could be considered controversial while I sat in church? Yes. Did I strongly disagree with many of his political views? Absolutely – just as I’m sure many of you have heard remarks from your pastors, priests, or rabbis with which you strongly disagreed.” It may seem like a small thing, but I’d much rather hear “many of you” than “Americans.” Obama doesn’t implicitly condemn heathens.
