Re: HPV and Cancer link

God seems to have indeed instituted incurable STDs as a consequence of promiscuity. Herpes which is incurable and causes lifelong pain is a good example. So you know God's will now? Did he also bring us COVID to weed out foolish people who choose not to get vaccinated? God commands us not to commit...

Re: Poll: Daniel Perry - Should he have been pardoned?

Except the actual crime and the sentencing are different. That was the entire point. I think lawyers should not get lenient sentencing. Particularly lawyers who are prosecutors.

Re: War in Gaza

In other words, several lawless countries who want to be an authority unto themselves and reserve the right to engage in war crimes, unwarranted invasions, and face no consequences for doing so.

That sums up America, Russia, India, China, and Israel quite well.
