But this exacts a consequence on the state for the state's bad conduct, yet it's the innocent citizen who's actually punished. Society A: You are shot...

Assuming informed consent, perhaps yes to all your questions. A state that enforces slavery and further forces the slaves to live in their oppression ...

I have a business idea, but it would require Baden to "work" for me full time. Is there anyone out there who can "help" me along so that he'll be conv...

In need of an investor? Welcome to the Shark Tank.

Not real sure where all that comes from, even should I have misread your initial question and read in some degree of hostile attraction to the antagon...

You're wrong.
January 02, 2018 at 03:19
Here's what I think, and I'm never wrong. It annoys, troubles, and confuses you how other people can casually fuck around, jump from person to person,...

As to where I'll enjoy my herring, I''m not sure whose car it will be in yet, but definately it'll be enjoyed in the front seat. I don't care how tidy...

Fine, you've convinced me my concerns were unfounded.

Give it a try and see.

Did they do it missionary?

I thought of a new word that decribes just what I'm feeling: Inarticustupilackafecacleansia. It's that feeling you have when you've run out of stupid ...

Every New Year's my fam eats plum pudding, sexes it up on the car hood until the ball drops, and drinks Zima, the non-beer, until the mourners throw u...

All of this begs the real question of why.

Pomeranian stew is delicious this time of year.

Amateurs. Sex is to be had on the hood of the car. Sex shouldn't be had in the trunk (or as the Brits say, "boot") because most trunks are filled with...

I get you're mad, but I'm pretty sure had I been around in 1930s Germany my fate would have been different than you're suggesting. But, why be literal...

I moved Wosret's discussion about being censored to Feedback.
December 29, 2017 at 20:19
The "story" cannot be used to demonstrate anything. It's not empirical evidence. It's a made up story. As I said, if the story were an accurate portra...
December 29, 2017 at 13:36
I didn't read the story as having anything to do with morality or moral theory. I also don't think it's a rejection of science generally, which would ...

If you don't eat pickled herring, it's doubtful you're even Dutch. /uploads/files/1p/tem9tn2r4rl1s1vz.png

My New Year's Resolution will not be pleasant for anyone, especially not for TimeLine, Baden, or that fucker at the grocery store who still actually w...

I majored in philosophy long ago and then much later I started debating philosophical topics online. One thing that I've noticed about me in contrast ...

Stop fighting it and just fucking admit that Dutch people slurp down pickled herring from street vendors. Everyone knows it already, you can't hide it...

Do you have a cite for the study you're referencing?
December 27, 2017 at 14:10
It was not from me. It was for me. I have always enjoyed the feel of ethnic female ceremonial garb against my freshly shaven loins, and how I love to ...

Obviously "soul" carries religious meaning, but the Cartesian mind seems distinct from the body, even if we concede it is composed of the same substan...

Jews do not believe Jesus was the son of God. I think most would agree that Jesus' position as the son of God is an essential element of Christianity....

I don't subscribe to the idea that essences exist. There are only particular traits that once fully subtracted leave the object at nothing. I understa...

If souls exist, then how could they not have come from somewhere?
December 26, 2017 at 18:45
Are you saying there is no soul?

A question for Benkei. What is it with the Dutch obsession with raw herring?
December 26, 2017 at 16:24
But when you hold me and sing to me in your thick Eastern European tongue and feed me the fermented beets and candied cabbage your village is known fo...

All so accurate, except I swish, not swing. Ambiguity is so perfectly 2018 and I rock it submissively hard. But you need me? Hah! Just another come on...

Your thesis that all organized religions are essentially the same, whatever religious essence might be, is anything but obvious, and very doubtful. Th...
