There's so much, I have no idea where to begin, so I'll just make a short list:
- Stop teaching creationism at school. If a parent wants their child to believe in a talking snake and a magical man from the sky, go ahead. But don't teach it at schools.
I live in a country with a state religion, and we had Religion as a class in school. But we never looked at a bible, our religious studies were about the history of religion, all of them. You know, birth of the first religions, then judaism & hinduism, then the greek & roman gods, then buddhism, then christianity, then taoism, then islam, etc etc.
And yes, you can teach the concept of creationism, but not as truth but as a part of religion. The bible isn't "God's true word on earth", it's what a few stuffy old men decided christianity should be in Nicea around 200AD IIRC.
- Well, that's just a pet peeve of mine, the real problem is: Stop Corporate hold on power. Although, with the recent ruling that money = freedom of speech, this isn't going nowhere... But this + religious nuts is what's "destroying America". You know there are over 100 lobbyists for every Senator + Representative? Whenever anyone tries to enact any kind of reform that doesn't include throwing money at corporations & the rich, these leeches spring into action. And well, as you can see from the state of the states, that's not good.
There are a ton of other problems as well, but they all boil down to one of the above. All the fat people = Unhealthy food = corporate profits. All the sick people = Unhealthy food + low medical care = Insurance & Pharmaceutical profits. etc etc.
Btw, this term, "Hates America" is also ridiculous. Saying theres something wrong with something isn't hating, it's called criticism. Even the people who plainly say "I hate America" actually hate the system, not the people or the country.
Oh, and about fat people: I just watched the SNL episode with that woman from Precious: My God! Disgusting! That's not a human, that's a carnival attraction. "Come see the big fat lady!" Seriously, I can understand genes making someone a bit bigger, but how is it physically possible to eat so much???
