I asked what you thought, not what is available on the internet. Could you send me a link to your brain so that i can look for myself. Who oppressed I...

Have the Palestinians denied the claims that hamas represents them and their fight for freedom yet?
May 17, 2024 at 19:15
Me too. I think that if the bad guys in any situation put noncombatants in danger, then I am not responsible for their safety. And I would not risk my...
May 17, 2024 at 19:13
How so, their intention is to get rid of a political party called hamas. They did not decide to eradicate hamas until the attack. They tried to live w...

In THIS hypothetical question, you use the evidence given in the OP. All I asked for is what you think the reasons are for terrorist actions that have...
May 17, 2024 at 18:39
There are many reasons not to be certain about it. When did the Genesis version of creation get written down and when christian missionaries go there?...

I am sure that they have lots of other weapons that are just as effective but less damaging. But if not, let the bad birds fly. On second thoughts, th...

The people with a degree of wealth and education had the most to lose from it actually. They were at least responsible for the peasants being able to ...
May 16, 2024 at 02:03
Oh dear, don't you think that maybe it would be unreasonable and immoral to do something like that? Just think of all of the prisoners innocent people...
May 16, 2024 at 01:04
I would suppose that methods of doing this had already been tried, obviously without success. Maybe you could enlighten us on what you think might be ...
May 16, 2024 at 00:46
Let us suppose the the objective of Israel is to rid the world of a terrorist group that defines itself as representatives of a country. 1. Who can ge...
May 15, 2024 at 22:34
As it says in the article, the Palestinians are the ones that have the responsibility to stop the terrorist that are supposedly acting on their behalf...

Very interesting, I am in total agreement with him.
May 15, 2024 at 21:07
Me, a nationalist. :rofl: :rofl: I have not been near my country of birth in 50 years, and I am not even politically minded. And while saying this you...
May 15, 2024 at 19:49
Nothing proves that the Hebrew creation myth is anything more than a story made up by a bunch of old men with nothing better to do while waiting for a...
May 15, 2024 at 19:42
My mistake, we were talking about the middle ages which were christian and most bibles contain the old testament. This is an Asian myth https://en.wik...
May 15, 2024 at 15:52
The story of creation was not actually a christian idea, it came from African tribes and was already ancient when the christians adopted it. The weste...
May 15, 2024 at 15:10
Were do you live? The nation is the people that form it, as a political idea it is there to serve the people. That is why people get elected to be nat...

I never said that, I am just trying to make it clear what his motivation was. I must be learning from you! But one thing I will bet with you about. If...
May 15, 2024 at 14:42
EErr, and just who are the nation and the empire? Surely they are the people?
May 15, 2024 at 14:33
Churchill never used gas as a weapon so that part is not about reality. We are discussing the possibility of him using it under certain specific condi...
May 15, 2024 at 14:31
So when a christian does what he considers the best he can do to protect his family and kills the people attacking them it is a religious sentiment. N...
May 15, 2024 at 14:05
It started as an implausible situation and has continued throughout as one. What if questions usually have that characteristic.
May 15, 2024 at 13:52
If, in this imaginary scenario, Churchill's intelligence agencies had told him that gas was the best weapon to use, on would presume that they did so ...
May 15, 2024 at 00:08
These are made of porcelain, not wood. I would not advise you to tap dance with them on.
May 15, 2024 at 00:05
My dad told me that nearly all of the people in England had gas masks, so I doubt there there would be too much collateral damage. And the reason ever...
May 14, 2024 at 23:47
But I clearly stated that it is the main condition under consideration. I made no statement at all about the possibility of there being other methods ...
May 14, 2024 at 23:34
I have no idea how you got from what I said to your reply, absolutely nonsensical. So you think a NAZI Europe should be considered as the high road? I...
May 14, 2024 at 23:24
This is silly. All this would have done is caused a reshuffle and Anthony Eden would have had the same decisions to make. Question: What would have ha...
May 13, 2024 at 21:07
Here I have to disagree, at least for me. I had to stop doing so much reading years ago because of eye problems. I spend a lot of time on a computer f...
May 13, 2024 at 20:43
It might have had some effect on it but plain ordinary greed and corruption were the biggest problem with the church back then. Abbots with private ar...
May 13, 2024 at 20:19
Thanks. I think we agree on most things. An idea I have had running through my head for a while, not exact on this topic but not too far from it eithe...
May 12, 2024 at 19:24
I am going to be giving classes on those topics next term, Could you send me the info the give you. :lol: Just joking about the info. I think that you...
May 12, 2024 at 19:00
Whose morality? On what is that morality based? Not necessarily. I will let you figure out how it applies to gang warfare. Oh, hang on. Maybe you have...
May 12, 2024 at 18:08
Sorry about that. The original question is about justifying a person's acts, then morality pops its head up, then justice appears, then law. While it ...
May 12, 2024 at 17:52
Since then they have invent so many weapons that make gas look like a water pistol.
May 12, 2024 at 17:24
Again the question, is morality implicit in justification? Or is there a difference between morally justified and plane old justification?
May 12, 2024 at 17:05
I never mentioned justice, only that I could justify my actions because it helped you. NOTE TO SELF: I must remember not to help you if your dog bites...
May 12, 2024 at 17:01
I would have thought that having completely different ideas about a topic would make for an even more interesting topic. A discussion between two like...
May 11, 2024 at 14:46
I am not sure about this. Justification does not really belong in the realm of morality. Justified would mean that there are adequate reasons or motiv...
May 11, 2024 at 04:11
There is no answer to that question, that is why I did not answer it. I am not taking seriously at all the scenes you paint. It is more than obvious t...
May 11, 2024 at 03:20
I did not give this information as a way to get sympathy or brag, but as an example that you are not alone in your suffering. I could go on about othe...
May 10, 2024 at 18:53
Nope, it was Mattas.
May 10, 2024 at 18:07
By not letting it exist you are destroying its potential, even if it is only in your head. What right do you think you have to do this? Whether you be...

I knew a girl called Mercy a long time ago. and I would probably get banned for showing you pictures of her. :lol:
May 10, 2024 at 01:45
But so bloody tasty. :rofl:
May 10, 2024 at 01:23
Toasting a pig gets you cracklin, I am in for that. :rofl:
May 10, 2024 at 01:10
Justified, maybe. But what is the difference between gas and killing a bunch of people with a big bomb that might only kill a few of them immediately ...
May 08, 2024 at 23:57
Strange that you would destroy what could be trillions of millions of possible life forms based on what little you know about the earth. But doing so ...
