About Me

  • I'm a businessman with a medical degree running what I think is a fairly successful company.
  • I know that cigarettes cause cancer and heart disease, and people who continue to use that drug ought to pay for higher health insurance.
  • I believe that the LA Kings will one day win the Stanley Cup, I only hope I am alive at that time.
  • I believe absolutely in the FACT of Evolution, and consider Wikipedia's article on the topic to be one of the best written.
  • Go Orange!!!!!
  • I find right wing Republicans to be trying to push their personal agenda on the rest of us.
  • I don't care about one's religion unless you try to force it upon me or my children.
  • Bill Clinton is one of the greatest Presidents in this country.
  • Go Navy!!!!
  • Starbucks is the greatest social gathering spot ever, and they make a great cup of coffee (Venti Blackeye).
  • I'm happy with life right now.

Evolution

Evolution is a fact supported by millions of peer-reviewed articles. Creationism is a matter of faith best left to a church. Schools, government and encyclopedias should deal with verifiable facts, not promote religion.

Ice Hockey

Anschutz Entertainment Group just spent $50 million on David Beckham to play for the Los Angeles Galaxy. Who cares about the Galaxy? A few Europeans, Latin Americans, and kids who are forced to play soccer because their parents can't put them in a real sport like Baseball or Hockey? AEG could have spent just a few of that $50 million in improving the LA Kings, which means much more to Los Angeles. It makes me sick. Beckham should go back to Jolly old England, drink some warm beer, kiss that ugly Spice Girl, and be done with it. Soccer will always be the #15 sport in Los Angeles behind the Dodgers, Angels, Lakers, Clippers, USC Football (and I mean real football), Kings, UCLA Basketball, UCLA Football, Anaheim Ducks, NASCAR, St. Louis Rams, Oakland Raiders, and afternoon pickup games at the Y. What a waste of good money. Meh!!!!!! (This opinion is expressed by a LA Kings hockey fan who has had to put up with bad teams for 40 years.)

My World View

I scored as Modernist. Modernism represents the thought that science and reason are all we need to carry on. Religion is unnecessary and any sort of spirituality halts progress. You believe everything has a rational explanation. 50% of Americans share your world-view.

I love these tests, because I can manipulate them whatever way I want. But they are fun nevertheless. I was honest with my answers here, and I'm a typical American apparently.

Favorite Quotes from Discussion

I'm just going to add some of my favorite quotes that I've seen on discussion pages, especially in the Evolution vs. Creationism area, but I'll include Hockey or anything else that's amusing.

  • "...one could argue that evolution is not "undirected", in that it is directed by processes like natural selection. It's just not willfully directed." -Silence
  • "Also, what is it with creationists and grammar? Do you think God is bitter over being represented by bad spellers?" -Random Replicator
