It is almost universally felt that when we call a country democratic we are praising it; consequently, the defenders of every kind of regime claim that it is a democracy, and fear that they might have to stop using the word if it were tied down to any one meaning.

Not all Christians are the same, this I know. All believing Christians, however, make the same illogical leap of faith.

Uncertain. Zeno's intrigued though. The concept of keeping a tortured insect alive a few days before returning it to it nest with its comrades provides a nice question.

Will the tortured insect have its comrades euthanize it, or will it not acknowledge its peril as an emotional down-weight that it wont see suicide as an escape from its pain.

I just don't like hurting anyone's feelings is all. And apparently insects have them.
That isn't to say I'm not gonna kill them when they threaten my health, but I'll do it humanely.
