If we keep the pollution happening and keep cutting down all the trees, Mother Nature is going to nail us all.

Neither, really. I'll be dead before nature gets too out of hand, and I live in an area that doesn't see much extreme weather. As for terrorists, I'm not getting my panties in a twist about something that may never happen again. I'll worry when the time comes.

Mother Nature. She's more likely to kick something up to affect me than terrorists.

I'm not sure, but I'd guess mother nature kills far more per year than terrorists do.

Well, Nature, if only because being blown up by a rare form of squid is infinately more embarassing than being blown up by someone who hates me and everything I stand for. I almost sound Republican in that last sentance. Must be getting old.

Terrorists, Mother Nature does not seek to harm. Plus we can see Mother Nature coming a lot easier. There is no "Terrorist season" or "Terrorologists" or "the Terror Channel" to tip us off as to the next attack.

Mother nature can be far more devastating, and you can't keep it from happening.

Mother Nature can be tamed, stopped, or prepared for. Terrorism, on the other hand, can not be stopped or prepared for. Besides, dying in a natural disaster would not be near as bad as being killed by terrorists, methinks.

Please enlighten me as to how you would "stop" a tornado, because I am deathly afraid of them, and I would like to take it on if I can stop it from destroying me and my home...??? That is silly...
Terrorism can be intercepted...but I won't get into that discussion here - too tired today... |

There were three choices. Taming or stopping tornadoes may be impossible, but you can still prepare for them. |
