Are there really inalienable rights if atheisim is true? If life ends at. the grave and someone takes my life; is my right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness really inalienable? If there is nothing immutable on the other side of the grave than my claim to some right and my demand for justice when that right is violated is mute. If there is no life after death then the concept of justice is false because there can be no justice, ever. And if there is someone on the other side and his righteousness and justice is mutable, than I still have no hope of justice. Becuase things like rights and justice need a imutable foundation for them otherwise they are baseless claims.

When Hollywood portrays homosexual relationships it is always done in a positive light. The characters are healthy, happy and very normal. However when it is a heterosexual relationship; the characters are dysfunctional and plagued with social disorders. Consider that homosexuals are shown in long term committed relationships were as heterosexual ones are one night stands. There are exceptions of course, But I see a general trend that devalues traditional families and promotes just about everything else. This is not always done in a very straight forward manner. It is often done very subtly through inference and through the way you portray something,
The Heritage Foundation just released its annual Index of Economic Freedom World Rankings. As I was reading through this report on the top ranked Hong Kong it seemed to me that the United States could learn a few things from Hong Kong; what do you think?
