Jajaja, Molotov works. 
Both are ridiculous. But we're about the splice DNA into three-parent babies. Humanity is all about the ridiculous, and that won't stop.
In the case of Dubai, too much money to be made, too much religious conservatism in the Middle East. Dubai and the UAE could well thrive off of their neighborhood much as Taiwan and Hong Kong did to mainland China.
Or a pornstar

Never heard of it. The only Amber i know is Amber Gold, which was a pyramid scheme.
In case you are against death penalty, which of these two sets of arguments do you find more convincing:
Set 1:
• The death penalty is an unjust response for the taking of a life.
• In many cases it does not match the crime.
• Our society holds that an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
• Not all criminals deserve to be punished in the most severe way possible.
• Regardless of whether it is a deterrent or not, the death penalty is not necessary or just.
Set 2:
• The death penalty is not an effective response for the taking of a life.
• There is no credible evidence that the death penalty deters crime more effectively than life in prison.
• Making the statement that we take an eye for an eye only makes our society more violent, not less.
• Criminals do not need to be punished in the most severe way possible to reduce crime, states that have death penalty laws do not have lower murder rates than states without such laws.
• Regardless of whether it is necessary and just, the death penalty is no more a deterrent than a life sentence.

You do realize that the Catholic Church originally came out against the smallpox vaccine, saying they were violating "God's will". Now you have people taking ridiculous amounts of fertility drugs, ending up with sextuplets that endanger the mother and all the babies, and religious types go back to the old trope of, "We couldn't choose to terminate any one of these children... it's God's will that we have all of them."
The goal posts on what's ridiculous keep getting moved all the time. I'm not making a value judgement on it -- I'm just saying what is. And to prepare for more of it.
As an old housemate recently told me, who's now the head of surgery for a Silicon Valley medical center, "My job is basically to prevent natural selection." That's true today as it was 200 years ago. When you look at it in those lights, really -- we should be genetically modifying humans 10x over in no time now. We're long past riding the slippery slope, folks.
I heard that. You're just asking for identity theft.
Both are kind of a mess. I like some points in each, dislike others in each.
