Heaven and Hell

If Heaven and Hell exist (which I don't believe), you'll find classical music in Heaven, and Rock-and-Roll in Hell.

Climate Change

It is rather stupid to argue about climate change. Climate always changes, from Spring, Summer, Fall to Winter, then back to Spring. The climate that you like or dislike depends on the time and location of the place in question. Whether you believe in global warming or deep freeze, climate will continue to change. The focus should be rather about pollution and irresponsible human activities in abusing nature and misusing its natural resources, which is a fact. Of course the big oil companies and oil producing countries will continue to promote the production and use of oil. It is their interest to make big money and huge profits. But it will change. It is already happening, I mean the production and use of green and renewable energy in lieu of burning fossil fuels. Did you hear my joke before ? It is this: due to the cold weather, the gathering to protest against global warming has been cancelled :)

Guantanamo Prison

U.S. Major General Michael Lehnert, now retired, said Guantanamo Prison in Cuba was a mistake and should be shut down, because "it validates every  negative perception of the United States". Didn't Obama back in 2008 say that he was going to close it down within the first year of his presidency?

Indeed, unless Guantanamo Prison is shut down, who will listen to Uncle Sam's talking about democracy, freedom, human rights and international laws?
