		<description>Me and my husband will definitely miss Montel's show and Sylvia was a Godsend to us all. Montel is such a positive force for everyone who struggles in life with real issues and shows how everything can be overcome. 17 years is amazing and there's a reason why he was on and that's because we all loved watching and learning. He's really a male Oprah !!!
I doubt another show could shine a light to his and again I'll miss seeing him daily.</description>

		<description>Montel is, I believe, a well intentioned fool.  Very few times did I see evidence of any research at all on his part to verify the truth or validity of his guests.  Just like a recent episode that featured a young man stating he was accidentally shot in the back of the head by a person that was celebrating New Years Eve by shooting a pistol straight up in the air. Montel related the story adding what goes up must come down, resulting in the young mans injuries.  This is IMPOSSIBLE !! After the bullet reaches terminal velocity on the return to earth it tumbles , slows, and could be caught with a bare hand ( if you have really keen eyesight )  I learned this in the fifth grade.  I have since seen it featured on shows like "Mythbusters".  Montel is an IDIOT !</description>

		<description>I believe that the Montel Williams show is a very positive part of our media's history.  It has raised awareness about many important issues concerning the people of today.  Why must you all criticize him just because he is successful?  We should be congratulating others on their accomplishments.  Be happy for someone else's success.  Anyone who can maintain his own talk show successfully for 17 years while still sending a positive message to viewers is obviously doing something right.  You may not agree with every topic that is discussed on the show, but you have to agree that through the media, charities, and donations, Montel has made a big difference in many people's lives.  At any rate, he has done way more good than harm.

		<description>Well they plain and simply misuse it. But don't compare little FMS jokes to the much more offensive n word.</description>

		<description>In practice, I find that it isn't used that way.  But I'm getting used to hearing about it.  Kind of how a black person in the south in the 1950s had to get used to hearing n***** jokes.</description>

		<description>Yet again, let's try to NOT be a jerk, shall we? The only reason I use caps is because I don't know if bold HTML works here. It's called emphasis. Try to find good arguments, don't bash on such silly things like a 2 years old.

No, you didn't say faith was proof. I never said that. I was explaining. The FSM's point is not what you say. Just visit the website, read on the subject, see the origins of it. The FSM point was not to ridicule theists, it was to point out that you cannot teach ID in schools unless you want to teach every other religion and belief out there.</description>
