I believe Kevin’s death was a direct result of the FDA not doing its job regulating and overseeing farmers and it was negligent in preventing the spread of E. coli. I truly believe the FDA did not intend for Kevin to die; however, that does not excuse their negligence. They must be held accountable or more children will die as a result. I believe the FDA should be held both criminally and civilly responsible for this in the same way that a driver would be responsible…

If you think you’re doing well, you should know a robot could do so much better; but is that so bad? Kevin Kelly doesn’t seem to think so, as presented in his article “Better than Human: Why Robots Will - and Must - Take Our Jobs”.

The film Dogma (1999) is a sarcastically filled film that centers on a woman named Bethany Sloan who is given a holy quest, so to speak, by the archangel Metatron. Metatron is the voice of God and God has deemed that Bethany is the one person who can stop two angels, Loki and Bartelby who were banished from Heaven, from cleansing themselves of their sin and re-entering Heaven.
