jackdaripper ::: Favorites science is not liberal or conservative you bloody fool. It is a pure subject. Politics is a abusive unpure entity used by those in power to get what they want. Regardless of the truth. 07-05-28 07:22:32 _____________________________________________________
prophetofdoom ::: Favorites science gets liberal and conservative when scientists want to do immoral things you bloody fool. Us ethical people don't like grown humans like corn and using them as if they are not human at all. You can call that science, I call it revolting as do I anyone who supports it. 07-05-28 12:00:16 _____________________________________________________

2432615184 ::: Favorites This is very astute, but I think science will survive. It's interesting that anti-liberals (other than me) are the only ones who see fit to comment to far. Must be getting under the skin :-) 07-03-26 12:21:49 _____________________________________________________

atheistnarnia ::: Favorites Liberals claim to be 'scientific' yet many do not believe in the concept of human races. The preach equality.
