1. Abortion

2. Murder

3. Sharks

4. Insects that sting

5. Roaches

8. Mildew/mold

9. Sinkholes

10. Strip clubs

11. Sweating/over-heating

12. Smoking

13. Pollution

14. Pornography

15. Contraception

 

Number one is number two.

Also, linguistic prescriptivists.

 

LOL.

 

To the OP: 1, 2, and 15 are the same thing, so really it's only a list of 13.

 

I'd rid the world of all creatures having 8 legs. Creepy as hell.

Why not just any kind of terrorist? Does it really matter?

That takes care of a lot. But then how would I experience God's greatest attribute....divine mercy.   Oh the paradox.

[Spem in alium]

Betrayal.

Nickelback.

Turducken.

Thanks everyone who pointed out that 1 and 2 are the same. I know that, but some people on here don't get it yet. I was differentiating to make a point that both are evil and need to be gone. :)

 

Curiousing, 15 certainly CAN be 1 (and thus 2), but it doesn't always function as an abortifacient. It's still awful either way. :(

 

Addition:

-Cavaties

4) thrush

Lack of respect for the value and merit of each precious, God-given life

islam

 

Seriously? This is really hurtful. Why would you say this?

 

You anti-Muslims have got to recognize that, while there are some really awful Muslims out there, there are also some truly wonderful, holy, God-fearing ones. Ones who are much closer in their worldview to us pious Catholics than a lot of other Catholics, some of whom are also positively awful.

 

You think there have never been Christian or Jewish terrorists? Geez, we were terrorists for hundreds of years. Islam is now going through the "reformation" we went through centuries ago. Change hurts. Love them through the pain.

 

Let's get realistic here, people.

[Nihil Obstat]

5. Tarantulas
6. Mint chocolate

I rather like both these things. I much prefer tarantulas to the littler spiders because tarantulas are easier to spot, and therefore avoid. Also they make kind of cool pets, if one takes the proper safety precautions.
