Image via Wikipedia I argue with a few friends sometimes about the practice of torture. They ask me why I don’t believe torture should be used to extract potentially life-saving information. My stance has been and remains that it reduces us as a people. Also, I believe people can be trained to mislead under torture.

We explored several towns to familiarize ourselves with areas where we might live. We looked in the very urban Jersey City (a possibility if I [...] For the most part, I have stayed away from religion and politics on my site.

I don’t think I like the idea of this at all. I think most of us are already too far removed from the source of our food. I like knowing my burger came from a cow and my bacon from a pig.
