The only objections I have to cloning are objections to it's use in agribusiness. I have ethical objections to patenting life, and feel cloned plants and animals present too much of a risk for our food supply.

Cloning parts for human transplantation? Hell yeah, I'm all for that. It's one of the major medical advances I'm really anxious about.

If you can clone the parts I'm ok but if you create new "people" just to tear out the parts you want and flush the rest down the toilet I'm against it.

O.K., Jesus, as an Anthropologist, you have the RIGHT to have answers to your questions about that most curious of societies, Conservative America.

Rhetorical Questions About the Great Issues of the Day:

• If a politician never changes his mind, how can we be sure he has one?

Because just like shitty pants, his mind will soon stink

•

How come the expression "family values" keeps meaning making babies, carrying guns, and cutting the taxes of rich people?

Because a family is more 'valuable' if it can sell more babies, it is not safe to steal anhydrous ammonia from a farmer without a gun and if rich people don't have their taxes cut they won't have enough money to by the meth the poor people make.

•

What exactly is so immoral about cloning?

because if you can make children without the 'original sin' of sex then it fucks up all of the world's religious doctrines.

•

If one argues that a fetus should have the full range of human rights, then why should it have fewer rights if it was conceived through incest or rape?

Jesus! If somebody is so ugly that they have to rape someone just to have sex then the child will most likely be born too ugly to be allowed to live and if they are so ugly only their close relation will fuck them out of pity, well, then, same thing.

•

Who is that lady whose voice is always used in political attack ads?

Tokyo Rose

• How come sexist language on the American military bases awakens more annoyance than the fact that people are being sold as slaves in Sudan?

Because the military is not allowed to fuck people, only to kill them. Hell, Jesus, EVERYBODY knows that.

•

Why do politicians feel compelled to seem dumber than voters?

It is called 'mental slumming'. This means that an elected official must never forget how dumb he-she had to be to get the electorate to vote for him/her in the first place.

•

Why is it better to ban gay marriage than firearms?

Ever heard of a "SHOTGUN WEDDING" of two Gay people?

•

If we believe that there are significant "cultural differences" between different subgroups within a population, then why do we believe that members ought to turn up in voluntary activities in proportion to their numbers in the population?

Because it is not 'politically correct' to brand some groups as inferior to others in regards to their positive contributions to society.

•

Why do so many people imagine that anger leads to happiness?

It is because of the unique satisfaction of using violence to fuck up something and how in mathematics when two negatives are multiplied together the result is always a positive.

•

Why should a course be required of a student who can pass the final exam on the first day?

Jesus! Professor! You know that administrators of institutions of higher learning cannot justify tuition increases based soley on the results of testing. Why would you ask such a thing?

•

If God is both merciful and just, will he forgive Postmodernists or send them to hell?

What's to forgive? The cycle of sinning and repenting sounds strangely like a postmodernist choosing one philosophical lens for one situation and then choosing another for the next situation. You see, the religious among us have ALWAYS been "closet postmodernists."

•

When eventually everything has been made illegal, will we need to have a revolution and start over again?

NO. We will just all have to be Lawyers.

•

How come pictures of people making love are considered dangerous to children, but pictures of people killing each other are judged harmless?

This is because those who kill instead of make love do not possess big enough Penises to actually hurt anybody no matter how often they shoot them.

•

How can it keep taking half an hour to get some place that's only five minutes away?

That's called "TIME DIALATION".

•

Which is more driven by fads, a teeny-bopper in a mall or a professor discussing politics?

It depends on if the Professor has been fucking the tenny-bopper or not.

•

If "intelligent design" counts as science, who counts as a monkey's uncle?

A football player with hands on his ankles or an Indianapolis Colts fan.

•

How come boys do skateboards but girls do rollerblades?

Boys do not do rollerblades because their 'baggies' get caught in the wheels. Girls do not do skateboards because they are more comfortable with their feet tied in.

•

If almost no Americans can write a page of English that is ready for publishing without further editing, then why do we think the problem lies with the school system rather than with the conventions that govern written English?

Everyone knows that we drink alcoholic beverages at conventions until we 'get happy' and at school we are tea totalers. This has always been te problem at schools and why conventions are preferred, English or otherwise...

•

Why are "punitive damages" paid not to the court but to plaintiffs and their attorneys, who by definition are already adequately compensated by the basic damage award before the punitive damages are added?

Without PUNITIVE DAMAGES no one could afford to bribe anybody.

•

If people think American college students can't write English after 16 years in school, they why do they imagine English is appropriate for use as an international language?

English is one of 'those' larcenous languages that 'steals' words from other languages that better expresses the ideas to be communicated. So, in this manner, English is mostly 'International' already.

•

If what you have to say is persuasive, why are you shouting?

IT is not shouting, it is merely RAPPING.

If they would clone 3 lb lobster tails I volunteer to test them, that means with melted butter and some fillet mignon, once a week.

I think,that sounds reasonable.
