[QUOTE=Kybalt;16083558]Meh. It's irrelevant, and kid with unknown potential > 7/11 worker. Just, Imo. Also, without making money from drugs, there is no way you could make as much robbing 7/11s and get away with it.[/QUOTE] So you're saying 1 life =/= another?
[QUOTE=Kybalt;16083410]Well, for one, being gay is natural.[/QUOTE] No, it was [B]never[/B] natural, and it never will be. It's an abnormality. Scientifically, life's purpose is to reproduce. Religiously, god did not make us that way.
[QUOTE=tomahawk2;16083587]Like I said, criminals have to get their money somehow. By the way, how do you know the 7/11 worker wasn't working a part-time job to pay for medical school?[/QUOTE] Okay. Ill admit that was a bit of a flawed argument on my part. But still, without drug dealing, there would be less criminals, as there are better ways to make money then robbing 7/11s (legal and illegal).
[QUOTE=tomahawk2;16083451]It's an established way to though. Did you ever notice since the 60's when free thought bloomed, society has become more and more fucked up? You can't deny the manners and morals of people are far more screwed up than in the 50's. Not to mention that religious kids follow morals and virtues because the guy in the sky will smite them if they don't. Who is going to enforce the morals without that fear? The parents? Hah![/QUOTE] 60's had a shitload of things going on, babyboomers where going to college/universities (big big big factor here) and they where finally getting off the leash of them being tied to their parents, so they went out to experience the world and all it has to offer, and that is what lead to free thought.
[QUOTE=Bryanrocks01;16083577]That's true, I know kids at a Catholic high school, they are all pretty much druggies because their parents hand them money like it's going out of style.[/QUOTE] They don't even follow their own religion. I tell them that I go to church and they say "Wow, you go to church? Do you even have a life?", yet if I were to insult the religion jokingly they act deeply disturbed. I'm a Christian, by the way.

Religiously, god did not make us that way.[/QUOTE] Logically, god doesn't exist. We are sentient beings and I don't see how homosexuality has any negative effect on society.
[QUOTE=Kybalt;16083617]Okay. Ill admit that was a bit of a flawed argument on my part. But still, without drug dealing, there would be less criminals, as there are better ways to make money then robbing 7/11s (legal and illegal).[/QUOTE] But without druggies and drug dealers, the entire lower 1/3 of your peers will have nothing better to do, which may result with more crime.
[QUOTE=tomahawk2;16083562]So obviously because you turned out right everyone else will?[/QUOTE] For the most part i've found atheists to be somewhat more logical when it comes to how they relate to other people.
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;16083631]They don't even follow their own religion. I tell them that I go to church and they say "Wow, you go to church? Do you even have a life?", yet if I were to insult the religion jokingly they act deeply disturbed. I'm a Christian, by the way.[/QUOTE] Are you my clone? I have the same issues
I would like to see the end of European elitism. Don't bother arguing with me because I'm not gonna care.

[QUOTE=Kybalt;16083584]No. In fact that's probably very unlikely. Parents need to start doing their fucking jobs.[/QUOTE] When I was a kid and I was hit by my parents, it was called discipline. When a kid is hit today by his parents, it's called child abuse.
[QUOTE=Bryanrocks01;16083641]But without druggies and drug dealers, the entire lower 1/3 of your peers will have nothing better to do, which may result with more crime.[/QUOTE] Maybe more pranks and stuff. With legal drugs you could still smoke pot, and grow your own, etc... Besides, IM BORED, LETS GO ROB A 7/11. I don't really see that happening.

Religiously, god did not make us that way.[/QUOTE] Expect theres no reason why life is even around, as Dr. Manhatten would say "Life is an overrated phenomenon" And there are animals out there in nature that have been known to have homosexuality in them, penguins, fireflys, and mother fucking dolphins are clear examples of that
[QUOTE=Im-in-PC-lab;16083666]I want to live in the 50's :frown:[/QUOTE] Oh yea that reminds me: I want a time machine so i can relive the 90s and see how the 30s-80s were. Especially the 50s-60s.
[QUOTE=Kybalt;16083677]Maybe more pranks and stuff. With legal drugs you could still smoke pot, and grow your own, etc... Besides, IM BORED, LETS GO ROB A 7/11. I don't really see that happening. [/QUOTE] Maybe you don't, but where I come from that's actually something that happens. Kids get bored and decide to commit crime, now it starts off small but eventually builds up to something like robbing stores.
[QUOTE=Im-in-PC-lab;16083666]I want to live in the 50's :frown:[/QUOTE] Me too, lets make a time machine.
[QUOTE=RJ102;16083703]Oh yea that reminds me: I want a time machine so i can relive the 90s and see how the 30s-80s were. Especially the 50s-60s.[/QUOTE] Racism, Civil Rights Movement, Drugs, Russians/Commies. 50-60s Homosexuality, Gay Rights Movement, Drugs, Arabs/Terrorists. Today.

Read a biology book sometime, the main natural and instinctual goal for an organism is to reproduce to protect the species. If that's not its goal its unnatural.

To the 50's, Gentlemen. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtKk8rdVWvk[/media]
[QUOTE=Bryanrocks01;16083717]Maybe you don't, but where I come from that's actually something that happens. Kids get bored and decide to commit crime, now it starts off small but eventually builds up to something like robbing stores.[/QUOTE] Well, when they get caught they learn a lesson. Or something like that. Besides, your experience is kinda flawed because the argument for a crime rate increase depends on drugs being legalized and sold by the government.
[QUOTE=Im-in-PC-lab;16083666]I want to live in the 50's :frown:[/QUOTE] 50's are easily my favorite decade in history. I couldn't think of a better time to live.
[QUOTE=tomahawk2;16083750]That doesn't mean its natural. Read a biology book sometime, the main natural and instinctual goal for an organism is to reproduce to protect the species. If that's not its goal its unnatural.[/QUOTE] A homosexual can reproduce.
[QUOTE=Bryanrocks01;16083649]Are you my clone? I have the same issues[/QUOTE] I am not your clone, and these are not my issues. They can do whatever they damn want, I don't care.
[QUOTE=tomahawk2;16083750]That doesn't mean its natural. Read a biology book sometime, the main natural and instinctual goal for an organism is to reproduce to protect the species. If that's not its goal its unnatural.[/QUOTE] We are sentient. Natural life goals are irrelevant. Our life goal is the pursuit of happiness.
[QUOTE=Llivavin;16083765]Thats more due to the community shunning the teenagers and not giving them anything to do (generally happens in areas ruled by old folk)[/QUOTE] Not really, it's not a big thing. Not to sound racist but it mostly happens in the ghettos and some rich kids trying to be rebellious. [editline]06:26PM[/editline] [QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;16083793]I am not your clone, and these are not my issues. They can do whatever they damn want, I don't care.[/QUOTE] I meant with the kids saying that stuff and all that
[QUOTE=Kybalt;16083744]Racism, Civil Rights Movement, Drugs, Russians/Commies. 50-60s Homosexuality, Gay Rights Movement, Drugs, Arabs/Terrorists. Today.[/QUOTE] We're still damn racist and you know it.
[QUOTE=Llivavin;16083765]Thats more due to the community shunning the teenagers and not giving them anything to do (generally happens in areas ruled by old folk)[/QUOTE] My small town of less then 5000 has very little [I]community[/I]. [editline]06:27PM[/editline] [QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;16083823]We're still damn racist and you know it.[/QUOTE] Yeah but these days racism is looked down on much more then homophobia.
[QUOTE=tomahawk2;16083750]That doesn't mean its natural. Read a biology book sometime, the main natural and instinctual goal for an organism is to reproduce to protect the species. If that's not its goal its unnatural.[/QUOTE] Dolphins don't have that at all, they are the most frequeent animal besides homo sapiens to practice fucking a member of the same sex, they are also the only other ones to do it for pleasure, and that right there has the big thing to do with it. With out Pleasure of having sex, then yes, we would only do it to pro-create, yet we've been given a mind that can think and we can choose who and what we have sex with, i'm sure on some level dolphins are the same way, if they can't think on their own, then they are well on their way to doing so.
