Why are some people so against birth control and sex education? Why is it that talking about safer sex riles them up so? Is it truly that they think that showing teenagers how to be safe will encourage them to be promiscuous? Or is it something more? In this post, I will attempt to show that it is something more, that there is a basis for all of these ideas about sex.

Rick Warren, noted bigot and homophobe, recently tried to defend himself against charges that he was a bigot and a homophobe, claiming that not every person who opposes same-sex marriage is a bigot.

I recently gave blood at my local Red Cross. To do so, you have to read through a several-page handbook on eligibility requirements, get a blood test to ensure high enough hemoglobin levels, and take a computerized test.

In case anyone missed it, the holiday season is upon us. And this year, with so many in so much trouble, I am not giving any gifts. I'm planning on giving the money I would spend on gifts away. So, how will you be helping?

I swear I'm not being presumptive (I'm working the polls in NC all day), but I'm gonna enjoy these last 5 days. Unless something horrible happens, Obama will stay up in the polls. This diary assumes that nothing horrible does happen, and there are no game-changers otherwise (McCain falls off a stage, etc)

Sorry it took me so long. I'm at a boarding high school and internet cuts off at 1, so I had to get up this morning early to finish the citations.
Please comment, add stuff, tell me what to get rid of, etc.
edit-2: incorporated cogent comment. (Thanks, Nailbanger!)

This is from the Anchorage Daily News-
read it here-"as prepared for delivery" by the McCain campaign.
It contains the following paragraph:

Starting in January, in a McCain-Palin administration, we're going to lay more pipelines ... build more new-clear plants ... create jobs with clean coal ... and move forward on solar, wind, geothermal, and other alternative sources.

So, this was posted on my blog, but I thought I would repost it here to get a little more reaction, help fine-tuning it, reads, and interest.
I wrote it as an answer to an argument I had with a classmate, in which I was accused of being an anti-Semite. Her main argument was that, because of the Holocaust, Jews deserved their own nation. I was frustrated, but I hadn't though it through, so I lost the argument.
Here it is: my plan for peace between the Jews and Palestinians.
Also, I'm only 16, so if I'm a little naive, just help me, don't jump on me.
