It is clear by your assertion that you have NOT performed a comparative doctrinal study yourself since you believe they are not similar. Of course, you will disregard me as religiously ignorant secular liberal since it helps you to maintain your biases. The funny thing is that we secular folks actually are more knowledgeable about religion than the devoted types.

"Atheists and agnostics average 20.9 correct answers. Jews and Mormons do about as well, averaging 20.5 and 20.3 correct answers, respectively. Protestants as a whole average 16 correct answers; Catholics as a whole, 14.7. Atheists and agnostics, Jews and Mormons perform better than other groups on the survey even after controlling for differing levels of education." | 0 | not toxic |

I don't have a narrative. The title of the story "Close Gender Pay Gap" is misleading and I am trying to ply away the opaque and offer a clearer picture of reality. I don't believe women are steered into lower paying jobs, they have a choice. Who is doing the steering? Is there an evil white, male committee telling women they must be bakers instead of bankers? Why not show job by job comparisons? Because it wouldn't be a story. | 0 | not toxic |
It is extremely difficult to justify expensive destructive power, and ignoring the well being , and safety of the earths inhabitants. Where does the logic make it a better world to profit from it's destruction ? A select few profit from war, and destruction of the earth to Capitalize on trying to monopolize it's resources for profit , but the majority of the populstion will suffer the ravages of war , and be FORCED to fund it with tax dollars. | 0 | not toxic |

Increasing taxes to pay for the $20 billion train to nowhere, add 1 $billion to renovate the Blaisdell center and hundreds of millions to clean up and pay for useless micro boxes for the homeless instead of creating safe zones to set up tents will drive more Hawaii residents to bankruptcies. Many carry credit card balances and bank loans that put many individuals and businesses always on the edge of bankruptcy. No coincidence the mayor has a make believe bank side job that pays him $200K / year and millions in stock options and is constantly creating overpriced make work projects like the rail, Blaisdell renovation, homeless micro boxes and massive megatowers and urban sprawl developments like Hoopili and Koa Ridge. | 0 | not toxic |

We really need a good old WAR. A serious one that will inflict significant damage on both countries. Not a little diddy rubber band action of Afghanistan, Libya or Iraq. The US really needs a true wake up call. China can absorb massive losses of human resources. Question is can the Americans? History has shown when faced with a superior force, the Chinese will basically run you over. Case in point: Korea. General Song Shilun https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_Shilun at the decisive Chosin Reservoir battle. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Chosin_Reservoir
Fast forward to 2017. The Chinese military has vastly upgraded their equipment, reorganised their troops. With ballistic missiles and anti satellite weapons, the Chinese can seriously inflicted damage on our modern communication structure in space that will have severe impacts on our daily lives. If the Chinese takes out the eyes in the skies that US forces heavily rely on, a tactical negative is the result. | 0 | not toxic |
Good to know that one of the three branches of our government is still functioning as per the Constitution. Whether the legislative branch will do so as well remains to be seen.

Trump has done exactly nothing to boost or strengthen the economy or the stock market or even affect the unemployment rate. In fact he takes credit where credit is not due over and over again. What has HE done legislatively? Zero. He has no plans or vision. The economy is doing well despite him not because of him. I do give him credit for increasing the hate and hate crimes.

Yes it is. it is going to open the door to treating these people as they should, we talk about understanding why. Myself, I think the Muslim nut bar has to understand there are consequences in this world for their action. There will be no virgins when they are dead, and no cash payments for the family only a bucket of grief. The authorities have enough information on them now to extract the consequences on them, family, friends everybody associated with them will be rounded up just to make sure it does not happen again. These consequences will be well documented and executed so everybody understands there are consequences to there action. These attacks are acceptable in our societies. Once we get the bad apples, we will be able to get our lives back without concern for this behaviour. | 0 | not toxic |

I cashed in my points in October and closed my account. I din't like how they were play around. Funny note; I asked for a letter that said my account was closed, and they didn't even know if they could do that. I had to explain, that since my credit card was tied to Air-Miles and cash transactions were involved, that any financial institution would give a client a letter saying their bank account was closed. Finally they decided to at least send me an email stating it was closed. No one should have to explain to a business that they need a letter stating their account is closed to prevent possible fraud going forward since a credit card was tied to the account.. | 0 | not toxic |

The cost, even in federal dollars, is ridiculous, not to mention that these federal funds cannibalize any other projects in the State.

Another timber business gone. I would really like to know what the "unforeseen" circumstances for the loss of pulp supply were. I smell an upcoming litigation.
The Clinton Forest Plan is still a cancer on our economy. The endless large wild land fires, with no reasonable fuel reduction plan in our future (no charcoal allowed in pulp, thus no residual chips from burned logs). Fewer and fewer mills, and less and less supply of wood chips for pulping. Undersize thinning logs going to whole log chipping for pulping, mostly from private lands. Early capital interruption logging philosophy captures fiber before any disease and rot appear as stands mature.

Cary9. I know well the origins of the Electoral College. To know and think about such causes reason for objecting to it. It's commentary you call whining. The Electoral College has been wrong for many elections denying the principal of one man one vote. This discussion is about the Electoral College. You're off topic. Each voter should be assured their precious vote cast counts equally with any other vote no matter the zip code. It's the individual who votes and whose vote should count equally with any other no matter the zip code. Voters vote. State's do not vote. Parties don't vote. People vote. This is about individuals and it is about equal representation in the tally, nothing more. And it's none partisan.

I still have a telephone post which carries other utilities in my front yard. It's over 60 years old and the power lines have been switch to a newer Pole which carries the power.
The old pole will be removed when all the other utilities are gone from the pole. So it's been very expensive to maintain these poles over the 70 years of their lifetime.
The pole in my yard has been epoxied for termite intrusion. I doubt that any other locality in the country has as much problem with Asian ground termites as does Hawaii.
The only thing more costly in Hawaii is installing and maintaining underground power lines. And I've noticed that all the new long-term power poles installed are made out of steel.
Of course it's more expensive to be a Power Company in Hawaii. Their costs are mainly listed as replacing and maintaining a wooden pole structure. These were installed when metal poles were much much costlier.
I'll bet today that these are cheaper steel poles from Asia. | 0 | not toxic |
