& Quote your favorite movie: I have far too many favorite movies to quote, but one that came to me first is from the movie "The Big Kahuna".
"I'm saying you've already done plenty of things to regret, you just don't know what they are. It's when you discover them, when you see the folly in something you've done, and you wish that you had it do over, but you know you can't, because it's too late. So you pick that thing up, and carry it with you to remind you that life goes on, the world will spin without you, you really don't matter in the end. Then you will gain character, because honesty will reach out from inside and tattoo itself across your face."

& Attend church: No
& If not, then are you spiritual: I don't know if it's as much spiritual as it is just clear-headed and confident in myself
& Or are you an athiest, and why: Yes, I am an atheist. It is because I have found more contradictions and problems with religion than I have found answers. More people have died in the name of God than for any other reason. And further because there are so many religions out there who think they are the most correct and their God is the only God. To quote Stephen F. Roberts, "I contend we are both atheists, I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours."
& Alien life: i think they exist
& Ghosts: yep
& Miracles: i dont think what most people consider "miracles" are really that
& Wishing on stars: might as well wish upon a rock while you're at it
& Magic: ehh
& Love at first sight: lust at first sight is more like it.
& YOUR VIEWS
& Abortion: pro-choice
& George Bush: I do not personally like the man because we have views that are vastly different, but as I've maintained in the past, I stand behind our country and our decisions. Not every decision is only his. The decision to go to war was put to a vote and it was accepted. Everything else the govt. does is also decided on by a vote. It is a democracy, and it is both democrats and republicans making decisions for us. We are better off to start accepting things for how they are. There are ways to make change and I encourage people to vote. That's all I have to say.
& Politics: It is important to be conscious of what is going on in the world. It's important to have an opinion but to also have the facts to back up your claims.
& Fast food: Sometimes it's good but I try to cook my own meals usually.
& Death penalty: Necessary
& Sex before marriage: Necessary :)
& Legalizing marijuana: nothing good would ever come out of legalizing weed. I fully support it's criminilization.
& Cheap labor: cheap labor and offshoring jobs makes the rest of us work harder and become more educated so that we can't settle for bottom-feeding jobs. I say go for it.
& Feminists: they need a new hobby.
& Eating disorders: a sad situation but also reversable.
& The media: Usually biased and have their own agenda.
& Gay marriages: More power to them.
& Gun control: I prefer idiot control.
& The depletion of the Ozone layer: Earth has been around for millions of years. It has been through a hell of a lot more than we could ever do to it ourselves. Ask me again in 500,000 years.
& Meat: I could see being vegetarian, but there's a lot to be said about a nice fat 16oz steak sitting right in front of me.
& Censorship: FUCK CENSORSHIP
& Video-game violence: video games don't cause violence. Fucked up kids cause violence.
& War: Horrible but sometimes necessary.
