those things you listed dont have a damn thing to do with socialism, those are just basic left wing ideaology

socialism has to do with government control and taking (emphasis on the take) resources from one group of people and share it with another because it is beneficial to society as a whole, in socialism your individual freedoms and self worth are curtailed for the "benefit" of the larger group

Those have nothing to do with left wing ideologies. Most of those are right wing or moderate ideologies to begin with. You also got the definition of socialism wrong as well. Socialism is where the government or state control an organization like the military. And by the way, the constitution doesn't protect businesses from government control.


1. That's not socialism.
2. The government already controls the military.

Aethism. Disproving god or not believing Go to post 130 Extended Discussion Mon Oct 26, 2009 3:53 pm

I'm looking at the perception that athiests are out to disprove god and that there's a reason for them not to believe in god, rather than there being no reason for them to believe in god


I think that has to do with people seeing the athiests that go around saying there is no God, people's beliefs are false, etc. I mean some tend not to act as though it's just something they dismissed, some act like it's something they absolutely hate.


I agree. To me, some even act like they're downright threatened by anyone believing in God.
Why are FAT PEOPLE deemed unattractive? Go to post 727 Chatterbox Mon Oct 26, 2009 2:53 pm

From an evolutionary standpoint, fat would be good, as it's better than thin, because that means you could withstand a famine longer. So, it would make sense that animals would look for fat mates, right? Apparently not. Why is it that fatness is deemed ugly by a majority?


Probably because most people relate obesity to unhealthiness, and most people find unhealthy people unattractive?

I'm shocked to see how many sexist women there are, but hey.


That's a good point. It seems perfectly fine for a woman to be a sexist feminist, but heaven forbid a MAN be sexist.

Double standard fail.
Increasing rate of women who're choosing not to have a child Go to post 177 Chatterbox Fri Oct 23, 2009 5:59 pm
I'd say it's more of an economical reason. People just can't afford to feed an extra mouth when they're already struggling with keeping things afloat as it is.

So...In the past few days a lot of sh** has happened.
My toilet broke and everything I owned got damaged by the water that seeped in my room.
My shower broke, spraying water everywhere.
I got sick helping a lady with her bags and sick child
And School just isn't working. -_-

What do you think causes bad luck??


Karma.

it's perfectly understandable. without a goal most people fail anyways and since her religion gives her a long term goal she's able to trancend the here and now mind-set.

Erm, isn't it the goal of Christians to die and go to heaven?

i personally belive that imortality can be achieved through adding a positive influence to the world.

Geez, I hope you mean that metaphorically. I'd hate to be cursed with an endless life just for doing some good.


I think he meant more along the terms that even after death, a person will live on by their memory. Like MLK Jr. for example.
