Fun fact, Georgia is named after Saint George, a Christian who was martyred during the Age of the Martyrs in the 3rd/4th century.

Fun Fact #2, Saint George killed a dragon that was terrorizing a city using a lance named Ascalon. The people of the city were all so amazed that they became Christians and were baptized.

You joke, but Intoxication is a defense that is available. The defendant can claim that his compromised mental state prevented him from forming the necessary mens rea. The lawyers could argue that he did not have the specific intent to commit the crimes he has been accused of because he lacked the state of mind necessary.

IANAL and this is not legal advice.

Quantum computers don't do math like you or I know, they do "fuzzy" math. It is based on probabilities, and it will usually choose the desired outcome. For example, if you or I add three with four, we will get seven. But if a quantum computer adds three with four, it will usually get about seven, sometimes eight, sometimes six.
