What kind of a society (sans a god) do you think we would have if everyone believed they were born bad,couldn't help but to do bad--but that it didn't matter because they would never get thrown in jail.
In my opinion--it would be and IS chaos, but it IS chaos due to the influence of Christianity which holds to the above meta theory. (sin, repent, sin, repent--repeat when necessary without consequence)
So what is your view of a society that could do whatever they wanted to without consequences.

I don't know but Man United surely figures prominently.

Are you crazy? It has to be Arsenal. *shaking my head* How can you be right on so many, many things, and then let this blunder into your head?

I once wrote a song called "piss in the sink".

I think they should have washed the dishes first, myself - but then I'm a wuss and a girl.

Thus the Brit's passion for soccer defines her conception of human nature. Your Honor, the prosecution rests.

Okay, I'll tell you. NFL football is human nature. Soccer is a girly slap fight. Brits only think it's human nature.
