:s So I wasn't showing my true colors here:
September 01, 2017 at 08:28
I think it's quite the other way around. Elon Musk is the dummy - he's good with science, and not even that really - he's good with putting others to ...
September 01, 2017 at 08:24
Exactly. Well, you thought wrong ;)
September 01, 2017 at 08:11
So tell me, is it possible for the one who makes the law to break the law? :D A moderator getting banned is almost unheard of! Can you even imagine it...
August 31, 2017 at 19:54
>:O but policing has a certain pleasure about it, it's what you do when you graduate from being just a meagre philosopher >:)
August 31, 2017 at 19:50
Good night! :)
August 31, 2017 at 19:46
I was moderator on a forum back very long ago actually. It was pretty much enforcing the rules for me. There were no bans there, unless you did someth...
August 31, 2017 at 19:45
But you see, things have been clear for quite some time. Why are the ruling powers mostly the same people who were in charge at old PF? Why don't they...
August 31, 2017 at 19:41
I did actually read through these. That is true if you only take into account what happens at the very top, amongst what - 7 people who have been mods...
August 31, 2017 at 19:38
I had to research to find out what this text speak was... http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Textspeak Now that I know, I would have to sa...
August 31, 2017 at 18:31
I just had a look at his posts, and I was one of the last people to speak with him on the forums, and I didn't find his answers to be anything that in...
August 31, 2017 at 18:27
What's text speak? :s I find this ban to be very strange...
August 31, 2017 at 18:16
Not really. They didn't even invent the drug, they bought the drug. There is no patent on the drug either, so anyone could produce the same thing and ...
August 31, 2017 at 17:30
Haha, I haven't ignored them! ;) But that new thread will require a bigger post sometime, a post which doesn't simply criticise what Wayfarer says lol...
August 31, 2017 at 17:22
>:O - the citizens never choose what gets done anyway in a democracy. Those given the buttons do ;) A monarch, who, unlike a democratically elected le...
August 31, 2017 at 17:20
That's not an improvement. It's flipping copies vs flipping burgers. Sappy should become an entrepreneur :P
August 31, 2017 at 17:16
Oh dear Tiff, you posted Benkei's question regarding my membership to the Catholic church on the FB page? :P >:O No, I'm a member of the Greek Orthodo...
August 31, 2017 at 17:14
But this is what I want to question. I imagine at that stage, material gain is more important in the eyes of all actors there, such that if X or Y hat...
August 31, 2017 at 17:07
I will do, I've been very busy, that's why I still haven't replied to your older Post-Truth topic reply. I will probably get that done today, my apolo...
August 31, 2017 at 08:35
No. I'm claiming their energy isn't focused just on checkpoints at the moment. Those are very very difficult to implement successfully.
August 30, 2017 at 20:19
Well, just to start with, because border agents will know there's no risk of criminals bypassing the border through unofficial points, so their energy...
August 30, 2017 at 20:04
Checkpoints will be easier to police with a wall.
August 30, 2017 at 19:41
Do those vehicles have to pass through the border? Is it easier to regulate and watch over commercial vehicles if they have to pass through fixed poin...
August 30, 2017 at 18:59
I think it would be illegal to fly drones over the border of a sovereign country without its permissions anyway... The idea of the wall is that it wil...
August 30, 2017 at 18:46
So what's the problem with that? And why is their skin color relevant? Maybe if a prison sentence was more certain when dealing with drugs, less peopl...
August 30, 2017 at 17:44
Lol yeah I agree, if all drugs cases would be reported today, and everyone involved punished according to the law, I don't think we'd have sufficient ...
August 30, 2017 at 17:32
It's not that simple. Simply getting it over the wall is not all he has to do if he's a smuggler.
August 30, 2017 at 17:28
PM'ed you.
August 30, 2017 at 16:29
Is it this one? And is he by any chance the same as John Harris / Thanatos Sand? >:O
August 30, 2017 at 14:38
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3Ezyd50nMU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IE0L3vMMZsI Well it is a rare disease in the medical & technical sense, ev...
August 29, 2017 at 20:06
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxa2tudKja8 For those who were crying about Trump lying about the wall.
August 29, 2017 at 14:11
My judgement. Do I need to accept democracy to accept the possibility of correct judgment? :s The fact that the "majority" agrees or disagrees doesn't...
August 29, 2017 at 10:51
It's not one's freedom anymore, simple.
August 29, 2017 at 10:35
No, it shouldn't be legally banned. Same answer.
August 29, 2017 at 10:12
If it harms another, it's not allowable. Even abortion should perhaps not be allowable for this reason, but at minimum physicians shouldn't be forced ...
August 29, 2017 at 10:11
Yes, that should be prevented by law.
August 29, 2017 at 10:06
What do you think about his explanation for raising drug price? He said Deraprim (hope the spelling is right) is a rare disease drug, and since those ...
August 29, 2017 at 10:05
Yep, but they wouldn't.
August 29, 2017 at 10:02
Well presumably the Orthodox Church and the Catholic Church would also not perform same-sex marriages. Other institutions should be free to make whate...
August 29, 2017 at 09:53
Well, to begin with, it's not even feasible to coerce them to abstain from sexual intercourse... how would that even be achieved? And no, they shouldn...
August 29, 2017 at 09:53
I have no idea what the UK law is.
August 29, 2017 at 09:50
Also it depends what you mean by homosexuality. There's nothing wrong with feeling attracted to the opposite sex, it's having sexual intercourse and b...
August 29, 2017 at 09:42
Morally it's not fine, but they're free to do it. However, if you want to speak about homosexual marriage, now that would be a problem since religious...
August 29, 2017 at 09:39
If the doctor and the patient are willing that is sufficient. Same for abortion. But the doctor shouldn't be forced by the community to give abortions...
August 29, 2017 at 09:22
No, doctors shouldn't be forced to perform the operation. What should be seen is that there is no discrimination - in other words that if a particular...
August 29, 2017 at 09:10
No, of course not, why would I be? :s I don't understand this example. No, I wouldn't be in favor of legally forcing people to avoid pork, but I would...
August 29, 2017 at 08:54
No, not quite. One ought not to coerce someone to take a particular choice by physical force or the like. But this isn't to say there can't be pressur...
August 29, 2017 at 08:26
I'm not that surprised to be honest, merely because we don't have a lot of people that are very familiar with virtue ethics (and the Aristotelian trad...
August 28, 2017 at 16:39
Woman or not, a terrorist is still a terrorist.
August 28, 2017 at 16:22
I will now have a nightmare tonight because of this picture >:O
