Um, are you taking about environmentalists or the wackjobs who actually commit terrorist acts like setting fire to developments? Or are you lumping them into one (which would be very disingenuous).

That's okay. I don't get tofu.

Remember this ad? I love it.

But maybe the guy buying all of the meat drove away in a Prius.

If you had to date one of them, which one would you choose? The mega-meat-eating Prius driver or the vegetarian-tofu-eating Hummer driver?

Tough choice, huh?

The Religious Right, dont have anything to prove to anyone...They know where they stand, to whom they have to answer to and know that they are 'Saved' even if you dont believe in the LORD.

The Eco-Terrorists want to do nothing but destroy what ever it is that your building! If its a new housing developement, and they think that it should be left alone, then they will torch the whole thing and never bat an eye! They will burn or destroy what ever it is, that isnt 'right' in thier own minds, and it doesnt matter if anyone gets 'hurt', because they figure they are doing something for a greater cause and a few sacrafices are 'ok'... (This really scares me!).

May the LORD Bless each of you.

I wish you well...

Jesse

I'm going to be a complete animal-lover hypocrite here & say the Prius driver....oh crap, wait. You're right, this IS hard to decide. Which one would you choose? Oh wait, never mind you've already got your Hummer so you're going for the Prius, yeah? Wait wait wait, does the guy who eats meat, is his meat free-range?

I loved how Adam Sandler kept slamming the Prius in "Bedtime Stories." It had us rolling

I speak of those who use terror to advance their political agenda.
