Mandated religion, your government telling you that you must believe not only in a God, but this one in particular. To not believe in said God is a criminal act.

Take a moment with that. Not believing in God makes you a criminal. Ok.

Now then, is there anything in human history, recent or past, that leads anyone to believe this is a good idea? Talk about moving backwards.

I was wondering what happened to Rachel, if she's back with her parents or still with the lawyer family or on her own. I added a link that has a bit more information, it was linked to in this story.

Oh my, doesn't even have the word 'cheese' in anywhere on the packaging. Pasteurized Process Topping sounds inedible and suspect. Let's read the ingredients;

GENERAL DESCRIPTION A non-melting Imitation Cheese that resembles a Natural Cheese in certain food applications

INGREDIENT STATEMENT Water, Food Starch, Partially Hydrongenated Soybean Oil, Whey, Salt, Casein and/or Caseinate, Sodium Phosphate, Sorbic Acid (as a preservative), Carrageen, Natural Flavor, Lactic Acid, Artificial Color, Powdered Cellulose to prevent caking"

Now if only it were as easy to capture human piranhas. Ceo's, politicians, that ilk, just plain ol' evil piranhas. Toss 'em in a bucket and call it a day.

Oooooh, pretty. His gallery is breath taking. Never knew he existed, thank you for the introduction.

I watched a show profiling Baidu owner Robin Li. He is quite intriguing, intelligent, ambitious, determined, and very very rich. He is savvy and knows exactly how to play to the Chinese Government and balance those needs with the needs of Baidus' users. The likes of Mark Zuckerburg, Larry Page, and Sergey Brin are out of their league with this guy, hence why Google ran out of China with their tail between their legs. I have no doubt anything Robin Li attempts will be a success. He is a boon for China. Not saying whether that is a good or bad thing, just acknowledging his role.

Well now there you have it, I'm depressed. :(

Thanks for reading it. I am currently going through exactly what this is talking about, and felt its random landing in my feed serendipitous enough to share with others who may also need to hear these words today.

I think the point I'm getting is; with the recent directional change,TaskRabbit has.....outsourced itself?

Some folks prefer being spoon-fed crap and lies rather than think for themselves. Pfft to critical thinking, just soooo much simpler that way, isn't it?

What I find sad is we live in a world where police expect 13 year old children to be pointing a real gun, and police react in retaliation - kill mode.

""By making toy guns more obvious to law enforcement, we can help families avoid the terrible grief of losing a child," he said." Maybe this solution is too obvious and simple, but how about don't shoot to kill?

Thank you /u/drunkenninja for posting a live link. I appreciate it :)

Well that was super awesome.

This part of the article: "In 2010 it was purchased for $4 billion in a leveraged buyout by 3G Capital, the Brazilian private equity firm that also owns H.J. Heinz with Berkshire Hathaway (BRK/A) and whose principals are among the controlling shareholders of Anheuser-Busch InBev (BUD)." explains this story about McDonalds no longer using Heinz ketchup because the contract went to Burger King. Of course the original article did mention the sale :"In February US investment star Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway together with Brazil’s 3G Capital took over Heinz in a $28 billion deal.", it doesn't mention how 3G also owns Burger King.

This article proves Glenn Beck is crazy. How can someone blatantly, erroneously, and egregiously slander someone, then sue when they get called out on it, and get away with it? Shameful. How is this right? Goodness me.
