Why Should I Own Gold?

A lot of the responces have pointed out reasons why one may wish to be short the dollar. Still however that hasn't been a good explination as to why gold would be the investment to hold. Simply stating that the dollar is weak or that the US is broke does not lead to a deductive conclusion that gold should be bought. What I am really looking for here is a reason to own gold, not reasons to be short USD.
