Democracy is the best form of government until something better comes along. Does democracy work? Plainly, the answer to that question is a resounding 'no', but then nothing else works either. For now, we're stuck with it.

Maybe if they go to europe they can call it the Asia Europe tour

And why would they do that? Nobody has any idea who they are in Europe.

I thought Japanese were very understanding and receptive to fairies... every time you turn on the TV some she-male is giving a make-up or cooking lesson...

Ah yes, but that's different. They're on TV and therefore 'talents'. That's acceptable and, I would imagine, this isn't. Let's face it, tolerance is in very short supply in Japan.

ALL tobacco advertising should be banned and tobacco should be illegal!

Yes, tobacco advertising should be banned but it would be impossible and very ill davised to ban tobacco outright. Remember the opportunities prohibition gave the Mafia? The Yakuza would have a field day.

If the Japanese want to smoke, that's their business.

It should be prohibitevly expensive to smoke. Fags are WAY too cheap in Japan.

She may be beautiful...but you'd never tell it from this photo. Artistic it may be, but she looks awful.

Yes.

I am not a fan of this or any other American administration, but anybody who seriously thinks that this crime was perpurtrated by the Americans is soft in the head in a fairly major way.

Enough said. Japan cannot exist without the USA.

Of course it can't. Nowhere could possibly exist without the USA, could it? Shame on all of us for ever thinking otherwise.

...not American, are you by chance?

I think that's a good indication that the majority of foreigners in Japan came here because it's difficult being gay back home.

You're kidding, right? The stigma that surrounds homosexuality in Japan is positively medieval.

I think it is unfair that one of them could then theoretically quit his/her job and become a dependent of the other, thereby claiming taxpayer benefits that they are making no contribution towards

What, you think people can just quit their jobs, claim benefits and live off their partner any easier because they are gay? I am guessing by your statement that you are American and therefore have no concept of a welfare system that is there for the benefit of all, regardless of social standing, race or sexual preference. Am I right...?

I think that it should be up to the restuarant's owner to decide if he will have smoking.

...are you any chance a smoker?

a woman who “has something inside her uterus that is screaming to get out.”

Could this be the greatest quote in human history? There is an ultra cheap horror movie waiting to be made here.

I'm sure all of the non-smokers who comment here have nasty, dirty little habits that the rest of us don't want to know about.

Whilst that may be true, none of those habits involve anyone else breathing in your second hand poison. Face it, you and your kind are soon to go the way of the dinosaur and the dodo...and it's been a long time coming!

...and I am an ex smoker, BTW.

No no no please no. Only Japan knows how to make good monster movies.

Utter tosh. Agreed, the west shouldn't be making Godzilla movies but to say that only Japan can make good monster movies is just plain stupid.

I have a question for all of you who voted NO: why then don't you go on a crazy binge for whatever comes to your mind, if you have no responsabilities after this life?

What do you have in mind? A killing spree? This has to be just about the stupidest argument for an afterlife that I have ever heard.

I certainly feel this inside me. This is what stopped me from taking the ultimate "act of freedom and disbelief in life after death", to kill myself. And I think this is what stops other people too, even if they are not believers.

You obviously have guilt issues, my friend. Put simply, whether I do or do not do bad things in this life has no bearing at all on whether there is a life after death. Why don't I go on a killing spree? Because I have too much respect for human life, not because I fear punishment from your god. I choose not to believe in a celestial insurance policy that supposedly offers me a wonderful eternity in a make believe afterlife at the expense of enjoying the very real life that I have here now.
