It was not a complaint, it was the general view of lots of people who I talk to when i send them a link to something i saw on this site. Random my ass, at least once a month or sometimes a week you see something anti-religion. It really turns off lots of people off when a site views seem to be pushed in is all i'm saying.

I like the site, turns me onto some neat videos and such. Just making a observation is all.

Oh look, another post on top list by atheists. Big surprise on the sift.

What no comments on how its washing the criminals away?

Good for him. I get so sick of morons who call out for work because they feel sick. "Oh no i got a headache, whatever shall i do!" I'll tell you what to do, stop being a old lady and get to work like every other person.
I missed 2 days of work this year for being sick, one was i threw up at work and had to go home, other was because I had LASIK done and had to skip a night of work.

They said it cost "$3000 per person" for the consumer one. That is still more expensive than what i pay a year for electric.

Nevermind the fact that they are so vague in the press release. No hard numbers or anything. For all we know it could consume more gas than what current ones do, you could still be paying out the nose for electricity. If you can power if on a compost pile then lets get excited.

I do feel some awesome tech is coming out eventually that will change how we get power, its just right now everyone is trying for something, with each one have a major downside. Its just we have not seen this ones yet.

The government should make examples out of people like this and just give them mandatory 1 year sentences or first offense. If they don't get it by them, they are prohibited from starting a business of any kind, ever.

He is talking about the same thing that you saw in video. He is also just commenting in general about the OTHER people he had to deal with when referring to things not in the video.

People do that when they get emotional, they bring up instances that don't have anything to do with the question or event. Thats why they say "don't get all emotional" when you have to fire someone or tell someone something they don't want to hear.

I don't thing he is a hero or anything like that, but he did a good job. His mental condition has nothing to do with it.

Waiting for the..<insert standard internet reply of how cops are all bad from some bonehead>

This is why people don't say crap when riding public transportation. You don't know the person, or anything about them. Hell they could be on the bus with a handgun ready to take out every coworker they are with and was going to leave you alone till you said "hello".


Racist, mental problems, or not..EBM WAS in the right here. He did defend himself.
Black or white does not matter, you do not act on impulses to do whatever violent act you see fit based on someones words towards you.

If that was the case, half you mother fuckers would be dead on here.

He has lots of bad points in that speech though.
For one he fails to understand lots of things about food industry. Simply put you can NOT in this day and age go back to provide natural food in everything. The reason you get a big mac for $1 and not $18 is because it's mass produced.
Supple and demand would simply not happen at all in the world he wants.
In fact, if you wanted to make a meal like he wants for every school in america to be healthy, you would simply bankrupt the school because it would send costs skyrocketing (esp when schools now are having a hardtime).
You have to understand, its not simply a matter of food, its a matter of peoples mindset. People in Asia don't think rice and fish are disgusting, because they eat it in lots of meals. In the USA lots of kids don't care for it at all (unless its taco bell for rice and fish sticks in the oven).
For his "utopia" to work, it would cost hundreds of billions of dollars, millions of jobs at stake. So yes, we can afford not to do it.

You don't seem to understand the food industry yourself, the fast food isn't just cheap because of mass production, it's because the corn/wheat/soy industries are heavily subsidised by the government. Secondly, you exagerate your numbers, a non mass produced hamburger only costs a few dollars, i can make a healthy burger at home for not much more than a big mac and i'm sure a lunch lady can do just as well as me.
Not sure what your perogative is, but you seem to be on the wrong track, i suggest you educate yourself a little on what real food is, and the reasons Jamie is doing what he is.


You missed the whole point. The whole reason from the START is why mass produced food started was because supply and demand could not keep up with making food from organic means. That is why organic food is expensive, it does cost more than mass produced food because more work is needed in the long haul to the store. Try farm grazing cows naturally for 300 million people and then wonder why meat cost you a paycheck each month. Sure you can make a hamburger NOW for the same price as a big mac and its healthier..

You simply can't have mass produced organic food, for healthy meals at home in todays world.

I have nothing against what he is doing, its Nobel and good he is taking a stance naturally. Its simply unrealistic goals..as of now.

Bid Mac's SHOULD cost $18. Then poor people would not eat them. We cannot afford the cost of meat = deforestation + Global warming. School kids woudl be much better of with less calories and heathier options, plus think of all the jobs in catering for the economy both in school/work and high street. Reverse the strife that the corporations have caused. Local markets and laocal resteraunts.



That would not happen, not even close. What you just described is the exact opposite of what would happen.
More farm land would happen for more crops (more deforestation) because not enough land to grow + harvest organic food for the whole population. Global warming has nothing to do with it, not sure why you even put that in there.

Children DO have a choice, they can bring own meals, they don't have to eat everything on the menu just because it is there. Thats a parents problem, not a food problem. How many families you see today making kids eat veggies during a meal like the did when parents grew up? not many
