I think it's far more important that the international community start recognizing America as one of the leading voices for peace than waiting for Obama to, for example, solve the Israeli/Palestinian conflict.

“Bonsaijitu” comes from the mix of two words: bonsai and taijitu (which is what most people call the yin-yang symbol). Though it’s not finished, I am still relatively pleased with…
America's behavior affects almost every corner of the world. As the self-proclaimed greatest nation on Earth, it's our duty to act like it.

Though voting may seem pointless to some, it's the discussions surrounding the election and the lead-up to it that truly matters. And considering how few people actually vote, each vote is worth far more than one. For every person that does not vote, there is someone that votes for them.

If you really want to boil it down to the absolute basics, I believe the reason we are alive is entropy. It's the only "force" that ensures that things will change, and change is absolutely necessary for the existence of life.
We have more in common with one another than anything else in the entire Cosmos. The genetic differences between every living human is less than the difference between Chihuahuas and Huskies. We all have the same biological heritage and we all float on the same tiny ball in an unimaginably vast ocean of space. If you consider all of the various forms of matter and the possibilities of existence, you can begin to see just how much we truly have in common. One person may like lasagna with meat, one person may like it without meat, but every person that ever existed would eat a bowl of it if they were hungry.
A person can be smart, logical, and also believe in God but only if they have an incomplete understanding of logic. I don't mean that as an insult. Logically speaking, very little about what religion has to offer makes sense. Invisible sky creatures? Telepathic connections to the undead? The Earth is only a few thousand years old? God speaks only to a handful of chosen people? Religion is the only path to morality? Be honest with yourself: none of those questions have logical explanations from a religious perspective.
