Are Gladiators Going Extinct?

So, as health has gotten better over the last hundred years, people have been getting taller, bigger, stronger, etc. But, as the technological revolution continues over the next few hundred years, there will be less and less of a need for manual laborers, correct? And, since muscles won't provide a competitive advantage anymore, won't they start to go away? And if so, won't the competition on American Gladiators automatically get easier? I plan on taking HGH now just in case.

Anti-Deception

There's a preacher getting flack for calling the Catholic Church an apostate church. The inference being made is that the preacher hates Catholics. Is that fair? Doesn't EVERY non-Catholic by definition, think that the Catholic church is incorrect? Can I hate smoking without hating smokers? Can I hate deception without hating those who are being deceived?

Boy, I Look Good

You've heard the oft-used sitcom line where a man says "Boy, if I were a woman, I'd just stare at myself in the mirror all day." Funny, right? But, is it true? This begs the question... Are homosexuals sexually attracted to themselves? If a female is attracted to the female form, wouldn't they be, by definition, attracted to their own? Yes, I'm trying to start out the week as politically incorrect as possible.

Closed-Minded

Christians are often closed-minded, right? That's a common generalization at least. But, aren't most people closed-minded? Most people think that the way they're living life is alright, in fact they would probably describe themselves as "good" people. And here's the funny thing: Someone who becomes a Christian at some point had to come to the realization that they suck. That they are in need of redemption. So, what happens to cause these Christians to become closed-minded? A) Maybe these "Christians" never came to that conclusion that they required redemption - only that they discovered God for themselves. B) They have terrible memories. C) Maybe confidence in truth signals arrogance to the world. What do you think?

Bumper Sticker

What if you saw a bumper sticker that read: "Your Way of Life is Wrong"? What's your first impression? Now, does your impression change depending on who's driving the car? Or what other bumper stickers are on the car?

It Changed My Life

People talk about "life-changing experiences" pretty casually. This trip to Greece changed my life. This book I read changed my life. Really? How are you living differently? These things may have altered your outlook, or you may have really enjoyed the experience, but did they truly alter your world view in a transformative way? What have you experienced that has truly CHANGED your life?

What is Wrong with these People?

Ever been driving, and get cut off just so the person can slow down once they get in front of you, and you throw your hands in the air and shout "What is Wrong with these People?" Exactly. There's a problem with the human condition. A problem with you. And with me. And we can all feel it.

I Just Figured Out Polygamy

First of all, polygamy only works in a theistic culture where marriage is required for sexual relations. Otherwise, you'd just commit adultery. So, let's say a guy falls in love and gets married. Then, one day, he sees another girl and is attracted to her. But, how can this be? He's married. UNLESS, God wants him to be with that girl, too. After all, he's "naturally" attracted to her. Only problem is, he still loves his first wife, and doesn't want to get divorced either. Wait a minute....I think I have an idea. And there you have it. But, what if your wife has similar "natural" feelings toward another man? Well, that's the devil, of course.

Ice Cream Man Music

I wonder if different songs would be more effective at attracting attention or promoting specific items? I mean, do Turkey in the Straw or The Entertainer really make you hungry for ice cream, or is just a Pavlov thing at this point? Similarly, if you threw a mariachi beat onto the song, do you think they'd sell more Choco Tacos?
