This thread is out of control. That's two posts in a row that made people around me ask "what the hell are you reading?"

I know, the best kind is the granny porn.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occams_razor Occam's Razor is a load of bull, at least as it is generally interpreted and as you are interpreting it here. In fact, the opposite is usually true: the most complicated answer is quite often correct. Certainly there's no end-all be-all rule for all situati...

luminousnerd

Yeah, sorry. Maybe this one's better.

A soul is your aiua of course. :lol: (editing for clarity) Seriously, though, OSC might be on to something with that. I don't really know, so what I'm about to say is just a theory of course, and an unproveable one at that (if it could be proven, it would be by some physics guru, not me). But here's...

If I was one of the 194.5 major party canidates running for president, I would so hire whoever came up with this onto my campaign. I mean, this was interesting, it actually got people talking, it was imaginative, and in the end it got ATHF a LOT of attention. It sure beats the standard "patrio...

Dear you, I want to blame you so badly, but it was my fault. It was my decision to put it up, it was my fumbling of words that caused it to happen a second late. I made accusations I shouldn't have made. I didn't accuse you, but I might have. I'm glad I didn't. I did in my head. But now I don't. I s...

I believe Jesus Christ was a man who taught a better way how to live. Not that he was the Son of God. You'd be incredibly wrong. Jesus claimed to be the son of God. If he wasn't really the son of God, and yet claimed to be, he had to have done so for vain reasons. And yet teaching "a better wa...

Lol, okay, fine with me.

Can't handle a healthy debate eh?

luminousnerd

Vast majority? Read what a cannibalistic species is. And what a herbivore is. And what a vegetarian is. There is very strong evidence that the "majority" of our ancestors were cannibals WE are not our ancestors. Nor do I believe this bullshit. Just so you know; I am NOT a cop. And that ha...

So you're telling me that people have landed on Mars, we've found habitable planets and we have a way to get there? Are you f****** stupid? IT WAS A SIDENOTE AND I CLEARLY STATED IT WAS HARD TO PROVE AND I WASN'T GOING TO TRY Yeah.... I don't think I need to discuss this with you anymore. Because y...

luminousnerd

We do not have faster than light travel. We have not found a liveable planet. We can't even land on Mars. We couldn't even get out of our solar system. Are you blind? But that one's ever-so hard to prove, so we'll go with the idea that we don't have it. You are the one who doesn't understand my pos...

luminousnerd

You said it right there EL, "As we widely consider many species to be herbivores". Species are herbivorous. Thats what my comment was supposed to make luminous realize. I was hoping he would say it... but you saying it serves the same purpose. Species are herbivorous, carnivorous, omnivor...

luminousnerd

Eh...I know one.

luminousnerd

We do not know if there is any otter place for us to live. And we may never develop the technology to go there if we do find it. We already have the technology, contrary to popular belief. But that one's ever-so hard to prove, so we'll go with the idea that we don't have it. So what? We'll develop ...

I love the cold. Heat is t3h sux0r t0 t3h m4x.

...and snow's cool too. But rain is best. Ah, sweet rain...

luminousnerd

Individuals are cannibalistic. Species are not. I disagree. Humans are a cannibalistic species because individuals of our species occasionally eat each other and we have the capacity to engage in cannibalism. I'd say we are one of the few truly cannibalistic races simply because we acknowledge what...

Population control is an inevitable necessity. My ASS it is. You've completely ignored my main point...if we leave this planet and move to as many planets as possible, we've got infinite amount of space and resources (or at least, so vast that it won't be an issue for far longer than the Universe w...

luminousnerd

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, some things said seem to support what I think you said, other things suggest it has nothing to do with the price of marijuana in china. Oh well... I've heard the argument before, that it doesn't really matter if a deity exists or not as long as people believe in it. I...

luminousnerd

Fish Tank, I don't understand how you can be so cold. China is a communist country, and I believe the only developed country at least to place restrictions on population. The rest of the world scorns it! It's a horrible, oppressive thing to do! In America especially, we believe in religious freedom,...

luminousnerd

Animals are here just for us to exploit? See I wouldn't mind this point of view if it isn't for the fact that we exploit other humans more than anything and treat most of them worse than animals.

Speak for yourself.

luminousnerd

luminousnerd,

Strike one: verbal warning.

EL-the-Mod

Eh...for what o_O

luminousnerd

If I'm not mistaken, that pretty much guarantees the extinction of our species within a thousand years. The minute we fall into chaos (it's happened repeatedly, it'll happen again) and lose the technology to inseminate, we are screwed completely. Sorry...but...no. That's not such a bad thing for th...

I'm not convinced that a luxurious lifestyle helps humanity at all. In fact, too many of us are downright wasteful and the time is coming when we're going to have to face up to that. We with our luxuries are going to have the hardest adjustment time. Well, it DOES help humanity. It DOES serve as mo...

luminousnerd

Do you think we should have a method of population control? And if so; what exactly would you do? I have two different solutions both of them couldnt work right now with our current technology and moral ideals. First you could only have a child between 20-50 years of age, and be limited to a certai...

luminousnerd

Lol...no.

luminousnerd

Hmm...I found a site (http://thinkprogress.org/2006/06/21/santorum-wmd/) which has the administration's reaction.

I'm not sure I trust that really happened, but if it did, I stand corrected...

I guess I was lied to by an army dude. Lame.

luminousnerd

Well he didn't make it top secret or something...the knowledge is public, most people just believe the ones who speak out saying we found nothing, the ones that have no first-hand experience, no way of knowing other than what THEY hear... Which I guess we all are, but I trust certain sources more th...

luminousnerd

Luminous, please show me a link to some article where it talks about the president declaring that they found, "enough WMDs to wipe America off the map" The president didn't actually say that. I heard that from a soldier, I've got it on camera as a matter of fact. If I'm un-lazy enough one...

If we're not at War with Iraq why did we execute Saddam? He wasn't a terrorist. He was a dictator of his country. A dictator is allowed to murder his people. He's a dictator...

We didn't execute Saddam. Iraq did...we turned him over to them, they chose to kill him.

I'm ambidextrous.

Same here. I am able to use both hands...But I tend to use my right hand for almost everything.

But I putt left handed. And throw most Frisbees left-handed. Does that count?

luminousnerd

Oh no, lum, you're on to me. My whole existance revolves around making rap fans feel inferior. Never mind that there are legitimate reasons to dislike rap. Nevermind that you don't know what does or does not cause me pleasure. Nevermind that since we can no longer post in the other thread, we still...

luminousnerd

Lum, if they found these WMDs, then why didn't the president go public with them? They would have given him a landslide reelection in 2004, and probably have saved the GOP in 2006.

He did.

*facedesk* We're in a war in Iraq. In case you didn't notice the whole Iraq - terrorism link WAS MADE UP. For God's sake, can't you f****** read! I wish we could discuss things without people who don't know ANYTHING butting in and ruining it for the rest of us. God damn it. Cheap way to fight an ar...

luminousnerd

I was saying Iraq because Iraq is WHERE the army is. It is also a different military operation than the war in afghanistan, also part of the "war on terror," but one that people feel differently about. Okay then, I'm sorry. Last time I checked we're killing Iraqis and not "terrorists...

luminousnerd

Look, I just want a place to debate it....

I don't really care if people go in the other thread (but that's not my choice I suppose).

And it doesn't seem like there's any purpose to having two different topics and the chatters of one are not allowed in the other!!!

Let's debate this thing!
