George Bush Jr. wants his own personal war against Iraq, and most of the rest of the world thinks its a stupid idea. Which it is. Nelson Mandela says "We are really appalled by any country, whether a superpower or a small country, that goes outside the U.N. and attacks independent countries". And, thankfully, there's disagreement in the Republican party on this. And there's growing public sentiment against the war plans.
World Summit Agrees on Poverty Plan
I read an article about Quantum physics and free will, despite knowing that I usually end up really frustrated with somebody attempting a "scientific" discussion of something like free will. Usually doesn't have anything to do with scientific method, but rather some hapless person trying to reason himself logically towards what he already believes, without having much clue about what logic is or where it comes from. Just the scenario of human beings discussing whether they have free will or not, or whether they are really aware, or they just think they are - all of it easily ends up being humorously idiotic. The only thing useful to me in that article is that somebody quotes Stephen Hawking as saying that Free Will is a theory that allows us better prediction of human behavior than does any other available theory. And that he had a similar argument for the existence of God.
