Isn't political humor wonderful (as long as you're not the 'cRAT')?

Where's the one with donkey ears? Hee Haw!

What is free will?

Does this horse have free will?

Is free will a conditioned response – like if you see a McDonald’s commercial and suddenly crave a Big Mac? Or your daughter sees a toy and wants one. Is that the exercise of free will?

Is it a response to stimuli, like if someone says something to you or writes to you or slaps you on the face and you respond – was that response free will?

If you say ‘yes’ that’s kind of like saying, if I jump off a cliff I have the free will to hit the ground.

Is free will the choice to move away from a fire, or the choice to go to the toilet or to choose to eat when hungry or the choice to get out of bed when you are rested or not? Do these choices of action come under the heading of free will?

If you need to go to school or work and you would like to go naked but you choose to wear clothes – was that an act of free will? Or an act of self-preservation.

If you would really like to strangle someone or push them out of the airlock because they are so annoying – but you don’t. Is that an act of free will or self-preservation.

Where does natural reaction to stumli or acts that preserve your life and status end and free will begin?

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum Joined at the Hip

In this age of terror threats you have the President and VP on stage together. How dumb is that. I really only say so because if anything happens we will have President Pelosi - and how scarey is that.

Now, on the other hand, after the election, if the Rebublicans take the House, these two twits can walk down the middle of the streets of Bagdad hand in hand for all I care.

Is there proof for evolution as a universal law or only a localized phenomena?

1. Carbon based life forms seem to exhibit the characteristics of evolution on earth.
2. Have these same qualities been tested and confirmed anywhere else?
3. Have life forms other than Earth carbon based been shown to exhibit these characteristics on earth or anywhere else?
4. Have any life forms other than Earth carbon based been discovered and tested?
5. What conditions would have to exist for such life forms to exist?
6. Is physical mass required for life?


If there were any other life form would we even recognize it as being a life form?
