So, you and I both love our countries, and believe that our countries are the best...Sounds like we actually have something in common ;)
Europe, being a continent consisting of about 40 different countries, is indeed not "my country".

Oops, my bad...I felt that your sentiment was coming from the fact that your country was part of Europe, and that your love of Europe was reflective of your adoration for your country...Perhaps I should have said love of our 'continents', but while Canada isn't too bad, you can take Mexico from mine...I was just trying to make a comparison without quibbling over specifics :)

I believe most feminists are completely off base and that turning women into a minority, in spite of the oppression that has happened to them, is one of the biggest ideological failures of the 20th century. Calling half the world population a minority and making them a race was stupid. It only serves to make people further ignore that we are more human than we are anything else.

I believe that feminism as a whole is a stupid concept...If you want equality, stop separating yourselves into groups to make yourselves unequal so that you can demand equality.

I've always been female, I've always been equal

I think global warming is natural and not nearly as bad a Al Gore makes it out to be. A lot of people disagree with that one.

I'm with you 100% on that one.

It's not only natural, it's also cyclical...And it happens on all of the planets.

Agreed. Some people have money to spare and some people are massively in debt. I think it should be based on specific criteria though. People living on welfare and unemployment their whole life, or faking disabilities don't deserve the help. People who have a family and work hard to provide for them, or work super hard and get laid off could really use the help.

I believe the rich shouldn't bitch when their Lexuses get stolen,, because if they were pulling their weight in society there wouldn't be so many desperate criminals on the street. Crime is the only active form of American socialism.
