There's no evidence to suggest this is a bad thing, either. According to the Bible, Heaven is hotter than Hell. It's not a nice place to be.

That's where you turn to the Bible and read where only mankind is referred to as having a soul. When that soul is created is only known by God therefore saying abortion is okay could get someone into big trouble during judgment day.

I'm familiar with that part, yes. Don't you think people should be allowed to take that risk, though?

Amazingly, antique vehicles as such are not difficult to acquire at modest cost. It's not like I'm driving a state-of-the-art vehicle here. It's no different from driving a tractor or bulldozer around, a not-uncommon occurrence in rural areas where I happen to live.

I have chronic insomnia. It's not an uncommon affliction, and sleep is singularly unrestful for me.

You said it yourself, America's a violent and dangerous place, particularly in nasty urban areas. I also have been shot before as part of work-related injuries.

I never said that. I merely said that this is a safe assumption to operate under.

You live as a hermit, wear kevlar, and travel while heavily armed.

Many heavily-armed hermits dwell in Montana. As a conversation I once had with somebody Online went as I pointed out people like you complaining about this very thing, he replied, "I'm from Montana. We call you normal."
What a coincidence that I just happen to be a resident of Montana. Such behavior is not uncommon out here.
Body armor and weapons are not hard to come by. Need I point you to a website where you, too, can purchase your own Kevlar vests, or do you think you can manage that on your own?

That such a person exists anywhere outside of a mad max movie strains believability.

Oh, be serious. Mad Max is entirely a movie. How the hell does he afford all that gas for all that driving anyway, with the world being in that condition?
