If your asking if friendships live forever, I would say no. Everything dies eventually: people, nations, ideas, it's all the same. /pessimistic
No, just look up absurdism. I believe that people, as part of their innate survival mechanism, desire to have or be a part of something greater than what is around them; it gives them purpose and hope in this painful life that seems to lack it.
I use to be all for it being illegal, but after a while I started seeing it as a new type of tobacco; it would be much more cost effective to just legalize and regulate it. Besides, it's your own fault if you want to breath in a harmful substance.
I like having my information, even if it leads to dissatisfaction.
In the Name of Jesus Christ i command he demons speaking through you to be silent right now.
Fuk you.
I know i have authority over you, because Jesus Christ has given it to me.
Oh, so now you have authority over another person because "Jesus" has given you it? That's dangerous thinking you know; soon you'll be saying that you have authority over everyone, and when that happens you'll be the most foolish person ever.
Also Satan is the father of lies and the enemy of Jesus Christ, so i renounce any allegiance i have given to Satan, in the Name of Jesus Christ, and I confess that Jesus Christ is Lord and no one else is. :D
I'm going to call you out as a troll. Though I myself made jokes throughout my responses, I did still give some actual questions to critically discuss. You on the other have just basically been saying "praise jesus". You are a fail troll whom is far too easy to identify.
Is it cool if I call my girlfriend my "little white chocolate love"? :D
Are you a satanist?
Ave Satanas
Also by the way, Jesus Christ has power over Satan.
Damn, really? I always thought Satan would be the man in the relationship :D
I have had demons screaming for mercy by mentioning the Name of Jesus Christ.
You must be pretty bad-ass then. Do you dress in leather and spandex too? It's okay, we're all a little kinky sometimes ;)
When you give a command to demons in Jesus Name they have to listen to you.
What if they don't?
The Name of Jesus Christ is above every name.
So it's the best name? Wait... if it is the best name, then shouldn't there be a lot more people with the name of Jesus? Or is Jesus like Hitler and too egotistical to allow another person to have the same name?
Every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
Counter-example: I say that Satan is Lord.
Because he gives some of the most brutal treatment to his followers.
Some of us like it brutal ;D
He has been a liar from the day he was thrown out of heaven, and forever will be.
We all lie once in a while.
His doom is the lake of fire.
Hot tubs are nice.
Satan wants to destroy all that God has created, including us.
We all have to die some day. Plus some of gods creations are stupid anyways (aka viruses, mosquitos, etc)
God gave us life, and He wants us to live with Him for eternity, with no pain and suffering, and loss, and no sin.
If that was true, then why is there pain, suffering, loss, and sin? If god simply eliminated it all, everything would be alright. So pull the free-will card so that I can respond again, yea? :D
That is the best thing that could ever happen, living forever and ever worshiping Jesus Christ
Why does he need to be worshipped?
sacrificed everything for me
So what?
Amen
Ave Satanas
Yes. God is real and Christ is his son who died to save us. Will you be saved?
I think it could be, though I believe most people who are Irish are okay with the stereotype as it provides excellent marketing opportunities as well as a sense of easily identifiable cultural identity. To clarify my last point, let's use a Canadian example (as I am most familiar with them):
Stereotype: All Canadians live in igloos, use dog-sled teams as transportation, and worship the beaver.
General response I hear from my Canadian pals: "Hell yea! We're Canadian!"
Like, the stereotype seems to be used as almost like a proud label to distinguish one from the regular masses. I don't know, what do you think?
I don't know... if I find someone who I really love (and who loves me back), then shoot I guess I would drop it like a hot potato.
For the empire!
Plus, look at the Roman Empire and how it was held together from immediate collapse via the five good emperors.
I focus on education so that I can get a really good-paying job so that I'll have more money and time to focus on pleasure :D
This is going to sound selfish but whatever:
Sacrificing myself or someone I care about for random other people? Pffft, hell no.
Random person sacrificing themselves for others? Good job, your good (even though I would never sacrifice myself for you).
Sacrificing myself for someone I care about? Sure.
Someone I care about sacrificing themselves for random other people? I'd try to convince them not to, but it is ultimately their choice so.... yea.
Chemistry (looking at becoming a chemical engineer), Star Wars (hell yea!), cats (they're adorable!), mathematics (currently have 100% in pre-calculus [beat that, fakir]), abstract ideas (philosophy and stuffs), and good books with an honourable hero in a story of true love (sounds kinda sappy but whatever; I like books like that).
After reading the controversy section of the wikipedia article on her, my opinion is that she is more negative than positive with her criticisms and comments about society.
:O Standing in the sidelines watching this epic flame-war play out on my thread
German culture; I really like their traditional food. Also, I admire that Germany has almost always been a leader in technology and societal development.
If I had to choose a culture other than German, I would choose Icelandic. Once again I admire that country has been at the forefront of societal development.
What if one were paralyzed from the neck down and had average intelligence (100IQ)? Of course Hawkings is beneficial and useful but what if someone were not that smart? Just because they have a conscious awareness that mentally retards don't does not make their brain a utility.
I find that there is a distinct difference between someone who is stupid and paralysed and someone who is mentally retarded. I believe that a mentally retarded being (depending on the severity of the retardation) cannot even measure up to a stupid person in terms of intellect or even personality.
To put it simply, I do not think a stupid paralysed person is even remotely similar to a retard in that they still have a life: they can still learn, communicate, share ideas, have goals and dreams, and generally still be a person (albeit restricted).
Dang, I had no idea stuff like this existed. Anyways... I believe it should be banned because as the old saying goes:
"If what you are doing is really innocent, then you shouldn't have to hide it"
:D
For my argument I would like you to think of a human that is so mentally handicapped, that they just sit in a chair and drool all day. The human cannot feed itself or properly go to the bathroom. Any attempted communication consists of random incomprehensible screams and wails.
Physical disabilities? No.
Mental disabilities? Yes.
I find that people with with mental disabilities (particularly severe retardation cases such as anencephaly) are a problem to society. Because of their mental state, they are not beneficial to the world in the way of contributing something.
For comparison, a person with a physical disability (such as a missing arm or leg) can still contribute to the world via mental skills and abilities. A person with a severe mental disability that renders them incapable of even the most menial tasks cannot do anything; they are literally (I feel) just a parasitic drain on resources.
If an incapable being is completely unwanted by everyone and anything, is it immoral to consider its termination? Is it wrong to destroy such a thing just because it is alive? Think of it as this: Would you keep a cancerous tumour alive?
To put it bluntly I believe that beings that match what I have described above, should be terminated to maintain the integrity of society.
Note: I've got the feeling that my post is going to be flamed hard; therefore I have brought hot dogs and marshmallows :D
This video explains everything regarding Pluto and it's title of "planet"/"dwarf planet".
Heck no. Too many weird hypothetical complications that come with being immortal.
Do you know what happens if a person is alone too long? They go crazy.
The Empire in Star Wars was based off of Nazi Germany. Who wouldn't want to be a stormtrooper?
"For the Emperor!"
I don't think it should be oppressed, but I also don't think it needs to be "expressed".
I am given the impression by the debate description that Wicca should become more public and common; I disagree with this. As I said before Wicca is just another bat-shit-crazy religion to me, and as such I do not not see any major positives for it becoming more known and possibly spreading. That said, I also think that it should't be oppressed as people have the right to believe anything they want to.
Does this clarify my argument?
Honestly, to me it's just another bat-shit-crazy religion.
Edit: Switched Sides of Debate
The poor fellows are restrained from every pursuing true greatness and knowledge.
Gawd... this could easily turn into some really dark and twisted humour XD
Do fictional religions count? If yes, I admire Mandalorian and Vampire (from House of Night books) religion. I don't care for any human religion.
Could I be a beautiful woman for just a couple of days? Just long enough to film myself doing things? ;D
To respond seriously, I'd choose male as I like being a guy; plus I don't want to deal with monthly calls.
