What to do in Afghanistan

As the War in Afghanistan continues to drag on, I wonder what we should be doing to bring it to an end. There is talk for a surge in troops, which was pretty effective in Iraq, but will that same strategy work in Afghanistan? I've heard in recent reports that the Taliban has been expanding and actually recruiting more members. For an average Afghan it's actually is a pretty good option to join the Taliban, because in many cases it's either that or die. Since the US has not been able to push down the Taliban's influence it may be beneficial to bring in more troops.

What should be done about climate change?

So, what exactly should world governments be doing about climate change?

Gay Marriage

Gay marriage should not be legal, because marriage should not be legal... In this country there is a mandate for separation of church and state. So why then is marriage, a religious institution, also a legal one? It cannot legally be both.
