Religion and science are bullshit Sam. I thought you knew that.

Posted by Samurai oh come on, Dave... seriously. Do you want a country full of uneducated twats, because that is what it's coming to.

There is more fun to be had. So we have the constant defunding on one side, but there is the other. That the entire point in public schools is to create living zombies. People who consume without thought. I say living, not because of the physical aspect, but rather the social. The public school system creates people who follow orders on their of accord. Then there are those who know better for one reason or another. That is where laws, socialization, learned helplessness, starvation come into hand.

We are here to consume. That is it.

We might as well all slit our throats because there is no way out. Look to your own job for an example.

Wank.

Posted by jeepdave That's right, choice is never an option.

Anyone who chooses to be a retard should be put down. Anyone who thinks 3rd graders know what's best for them to learn and when clearly hasn't developed their mind past that of a third grader.

Were you smart enough in the third grade to know what was best for you? I doubt it. You're not smart enough Now to know whats in your best interest. Why is it all the right wingers are religious fundies?

Wank eh? I don't follow the linear advancement ideologies of science and modernism, much less the circular thinking of religion. I'm looking at a third horizontal way. Sounds to me that you're the kool-aid drinking wanker.

I stand by my previous statement, wank.

And I by mine: kool-drinking wank, no different than what you claim to oppose.

Thanks earth, you got this one pretty much nailed.

Not so sure I'm on your side of this either, but thanks...

You know the old saying "love is a verb"?

It's kind of like that. Wank is a verb.

Wank.

Just wank.

Feel the wank.


Also, I talked to Dave, and he is insulted by the term "cat". He prefers the term "felis domesticis", or at least something like that (I couldn't understand him because he said it while he was in the middle of scaling a particularly large elm).

Well, when it comes to religion or spirituality, you seem to be open minded, or at least non condemning. I may be wrong, but that is how you come across. I admit, I am very set in my beliefs, but oddly not because of the way I was raised. I rejected that like any other kid. I searched for myself. Oh, and MEOW.

Not condemning, I just haven't found a religious argument compelling. I do think it's funny how close scientific arguments about the non-existence of god are to the religious arguments for its existence.

Also, it seems to me that even if you're on about an absolute religious truth you're willing to admit that it is based for you on personal faith. I'm more suspicious of arm chair scientists saying they can prove thier absolute truth while you can't. For that I give you respect and them distaste, but won't get behind your personal truth. That's for you.

A maxim that I hold dear is "nothing is true, everything is permitted". (it's the credo of the assassins, hasan, the old man of the mountain)
