I wouldn't say people hate vegans as much as people dislike other people telling them what to do. Or otherwise resulting in actions that require them ...
What is work. Something you do to live. Can you live without oxygen? It's a few dollars, sometimes less for a reasonable enough distance to walk after...
1. Cars are bad for the environment. You like oxygen right? You know that thing that lets you breathe and type this drivel? 2. Rice is cheap. Does goo...
Who's to say our entire observable universe is really anything but a three inch petri dish in some alien stoner's college dorm he made for a project a...
As are many things an individual is fortunate enough to possess, if not condemned with. I'd assume it'd be like living the life of immortal plankton i...
You atheists never cease to amuse. You've never died, at least not anytime in recorded history. Just moved around some, mentally and physically. :wink...
That's.. interesting. Logically a democratic society is based on the logic of the majority, however unrefined, base, or simply counterproductive it is...
Reality is simply what pattern of actions and choice of mind can best placate the needs of your five senses based on an extremely limited period of ob...
Because you refuse to ask why are you not who you aren't. In most cases this is based on circumstances you did not decide nor have any control over so...
Of course it is. For what else is what you talk of other than (if not temporary) suspension of reality. We find this every day in performing arts, pub...
To be silent. Or a pariah. An outsider looking in as far as this world and society goes. A very lonely existence or a very disingenuous one. Take your...
No I'll admit there's a thousand things wrong with the current capitalist system, most of which have at least some form of remedy or at least attentio...
So, did a magical pelican fly into your window one day and teach you how to read, speak, and use logic? I'll admit as an individual you make a good ar...
I may be mistaken but this OP sounds like a classic case of failure to separate the art from the artist. The ability or possibility for things to occu...
Depending on who you ask, there is no organism alive on this planet that is anything but. Survival of the fittest, they say. Would you be willing to j...
Where would you get the guitar from. Who would repair it for you if the need would arise. Who would power your electricity (assuming it would be neede...
So cavemen just never existed huh. Or if so they were an enlightened and peaceful society far beyond anything we have today then. And just think, they...
Heh, sounds like a typical day of marriage. Really though, horror and tragedy is no laughing matter. Though neither is it so esoteric or rare it warra...
I take it back. This is good policy. In fact it should be stricter. Perhaps though with a notice in bold included in the "Site Guidelines" topic. That...
It would be nice for the "Blog" link to have a purpose for existing other than filling out the header bar. That or some new pinned topics for once, ev...
They all knew what all wise men know. The nature of change. Castles and fortresses turn to rubble, borders, names, and languages change and are inevit...
That or a simple case of "better the devil you know". Beyond that however you seem to come into a catch-22 of sorts. Though I generally loathe the "me...
Perhaps.. it's as simple as being able to question what it is to be unenlightened? And no, not @"unenlightened", not necessarily that is. Simply to ha...
Better to starve to death with a sword in your hand than to simultaneously eat morsels fertilized by brethren's corpses with said sword placed firmly ...
Perhaps it is. That doesn't mean it corresponds to any microcosmic understanding or "law" of energy or finity as we know it. Let's say black/white hol...
"Capital E" Enlightenment is manifesting whatever desirable and useful truths a specific doctrine is able to produce be it contentedness during hardsh...
Interesting. Technically this would include banned members. I mean, can't argue with the number one rule. What if one enters, and wins, would they per...
Well just what is it exactly you are convinced with then? The mentioned link suggests the possibility of humanity being the dominant species of the un...
I believe it. Friend of mine, before they locked him up, used to work for the gubmint. Told me NASA found an entire planet where humans are less advan...
If you don't do it, somebody else will. As a self-proclaimed religious person I naturally cast doubt on the value, rather prominence of what we believ...
Let me see if I can.. be an ambassador of rationality here. Sure, a skateboard has hard metal parts, "trucks" I believe they're called. That if violen...
The job of the police is to provide security for citizens in that anyone, regardless of race or religion or any other nonsense we've come to distingui...
It's important to analyze all events and the timeline of events through a color-blind and non-sensationalized lens. This is not a trial to determine i...
Anyone here long enough to give a rundown of the "history" of this site and the presumably other site as alluded to under the "blog" link on the heade...
That's the other thing. One great man, a man of compassion, duty, bravery, power, all only used when appropriate.. one you wish to rule forever, never...
It's complicated. It doesn't take much effort to see both sides. What if you were a non-criminally inclined third-world person, never hurt a man, alwa...
There we go. FIFY. Some do. Some may be right. Appreciation perhaps. That's potentially one reason roller coasters, skydiving, and bungee jumps are fu...
Sometimes you have to separate the art from the artist. Erm.. the decision from the person. "Stupidity is possessing the ability to know better whilst...
I'd probably egg on Person C for being such an ingrate in a world of suffering, strife, and low quality TV shows. Imagine how many people around the w...
Well, when life gives you lemons you might as well make lemonade. Try and become a bodyguard for a head of state. Believe me, if you happen to be the ...
One of you guys should do a live stream at the close of the contest and read them aloud. I'd probably tune in, at least have it on in the background w...
All that can be said is if you can't imagine yourself performing an action, especially a disciplinary or "violent" one, indefinitely and repeatedly fo...
There seems to be two prominent (not necessarily mutually exclusive) avenues of thought. Biology, in short the more you do in life specifically the ch...
