When will we fall? I don't care when it is, or when people think it will happen. But it will. Every single piece of history ever says it will.
Who wants to save the ideals that are embedded in the US constitution? Because they are certainly the best ideals ever.
EDIT: I am far from being sarcastic about the US constitution. One of the greatest documents ever writtten in humanity.
why do most people think it is in the far future, anyhow?
For the same reasone it is hard to grasp not being alive.
Why do more then 50% of america think jesus christ will come back to earth In Their Lifetime?Quote:

Yeah, I'm not really sure why I made a new thread. I don't really remember making it. Oh well, sorry guys, I guess this can be deleted.
Because George Bush is still president? :?Quote:

Besides, whatever it left shouldn't be too bad. I could see the US splitting up into different regions, but I don't really see the quality of life dropping to much.
This is a bit unrelated, but has anyone ever thought about what would it be like if America was 50 countries instead of 50 states? That would be an interesting idea for a novel or movie, kinda alternate-universe type thing.Quote:

heh, we wouldn't have made it to the moon if the south won.
...or would we have made it there faster?

Yeh read :
The 15% Solution: A Political History of American Fascism, 2001-2022
It hits at the progression to a divided US and the results of such division. (among many things)
Hmm, sounds interesting, I'll look for it.Quote:
