  Re: Once again, the Supreme Court proves to be gutless
 
(...) I'm an atheist. I refused to speak the pledge throughout my school years. I was beaten and ridiculed by my peers while the teachers pretended not to notice because of my stance.

  Re: "free" at the point of delivery
 
(...) Either you're extremely sensitive about this, or you must've missed the winky. That was intended to be an absurd example to bring something you said earlier (and eventually snipped) into perspective. But if you wish, I suppose you could (...)

  Re: "free" at the point of delivery
 
(...) 2 Points then: 1. What experience do you have of Universities outside the USA? 2. What makes you think "professors" are "overpaid"? (...) First you will have to show me that "free" education produces "idealists with no concept of the real (...) (20 years ago, 14-Jun-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

  Re: Once again, the Supreme Court proves to be gutless
 
(...) I've wondered whether conservatives would cringe or rejoice at this gutless attempt at sidestepping the issue, since the only real message that it sends is that schools should control children, not their parents. -->Bruce<-- (20 years ago, 14-Jun-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: The Real Waste
