Tony Abbott is a pro-lifer who supports the death penalty.
Personally, I just think that to take someone's life against their will (which I don't believe includes abortion) is wrong.
To exercise the death penalty on a murderer, to me, is like saying 'Well, *you're* not allowed to kill, but...
In the end, I actually think that the whole 'biologically determined vs. choice' argument is a moot point. Though I do believe same-sex attraction stems from biology, I also believe that even if it doesn't, that's still not a basis for discrimination, etc. In a Western society we should value...
Yes, I agree with this. In my opinion, homosexuality as an orientation is neither good nor bad. It just *is*. It only acquires an element of morality when seen through human eyes. Love is evidently important to humans, thus those that are for same-sex rights see this as the crux of the issue...
Yeah, I love it! Am watching Season 2 atm.
Although I'm not physicsy/mathsy, I do love biology, so I love the bio references. I lol'd in the episode where Sheldon makes his friends do a quiz about him and asks them to put his favourite amino acid. Haha.

Essentially, I agree with this.
Perceptionism is impractical in day-to-day life. Imagine if a crime was committed and the defense was just like 'Oh, well, the crime really just exists in a perceived reality, and therefore we can't say that it was really committed'.
We have to function as...
Scrubs is SO SO awesome! :)
One of my favourite Cox quotes:
'You'd better replace the captain of your brainship, because he's drunk at the wheel'.
Lol.
Murray (talking about Dave's party): You're both aware that I wasn't invited?
Brett: No.
Jemaine: Yeah.
Murray: You knew?
Jemaine: Yeah, I knew.
Murray (writing on his post-it notes): Jemaine knew.
Or something like that.
Lol. Poor Murray.
