Actually it is you who are trying to make yourself sleep better at night by pointing and laughing at other people. Have you strived for greatness in your own life? Are you trying to be smarter, stronger, or more successful than the best humanity has to offer? Do you lament the fact you are not as smart as Einstein or Newton, that you are not as strong as Lance Armstrong or Magnus Ver Magnusson? Or that you have not been as positive a force as Abe Lincoln or Martin Luther King?tiredinnuendo said:I have a motto?Firia said:Must be a Fox News report, cause that was a load of Bull. Some people are smarter, can run faster, climb higher, etc et al, but a person is not made better by their lifestyle choices. By, I have to wonder, what standards are you judging these people you don't even know? Is it just cause they identify as something you personally find silly?tiredinnuendo said:News Flash. All people aren't created equal, and some people are actually better than others. And I'm way better than these people.Firia said:So my point; don't judge. You're no better, so don't act like you are.

I dunno what you've done with your life, aside from 13 hours of boarderlands, and choosing mottos that don't fit your actual outlook, but these are the people with the spotlight, not you.
And yes, a person is made better or worse by certain lifestyle choices. Namely the ones that make you a moron. You can pretend they aren't, if it makes you sleep easier at night, but being smarter, stronger, more successful, and a more positive force in the universe does, in fact make someone better than someone else.
No, you are just finding people you consider worse than you, and saying "At least I am not that bad!" With this mindset, all you have to do to feel a better person is roll out of bed before 3PM.
And you really thinks this makes you a better person?
Godwinning the thread aside, Nazis: A group of people who went around convinced of their own superiority over another group they arbitrarily decided were stupider, weaker, and a negative force in the universe. Whilst you, on the other hand...tiredinnuendo said:
Oh wait.
there are three things this could be a) a twilight marketing campaign b) a Dante's inferno marketing campaign or c) an article made by the union. there is a rare affliction that makes it so that a human has to digest blood orally or they may very well die, but they don't think they're vampires.
Meh. I'm not bothered more by these fellas than those millions who believe in an invisble father figure floating around on a cloud, taking care of things for them. I might classify both casses as clear-cut delusions, but that doesn't stop them from being very real to those who believe.
Firstly, brilliant call with "Off their fucking rocker".ActionDan said:
Secondly, surely one of the symptoms of Vampirism would be being dead.
You're applying a very limited view of what it means to recognize that some people have more worth than others. Knowing that I am better than some people also means knowing that others are better than me. Yes, I do try to be the best I can be. I stay healthy and active, I keep trying to learn, I make sure that I serve well at my job, I do my best to raise my daughter as a single parent, I pay my mortgage on time, etc.cuddly_tomato said:
Of course people like Jesus and Einstein brought more to the table than I did. They had more than I did, whether in talent or luck or both, and I recognize that. You know what I don't do as a result? Invent a reality where I'm "more special" because I'm actually a vampire. I just try to do the best I can.
Knowing that you can be superior to others and believing that others should have to change/die/whatever are two different things. I have a neighbor who is Mexican, but is convinced that he's actually a member of the "Lost 13th Tribe of Judah" and is therefore Jewish. This is the third major religion he's jumped on this year. I could point out all the problems with his logic, but what good would it do? This makes him happy, so be it. He's wrong, mind you, but he's happy, so whatever. I would never walk up to a "Vampire" and try to change them, much as I wouldn't head down to the trailer park and try to explain how investing your money this way instead of spending it on cheap beer would be a better long term financial plan. It's wasted effort and these people are basically happy.cuddly_tomato said:
My only point is that saying, "No one is better than anyone else" is wrong. Some people have more worth than others. Unless you're asking who's better at being crazy. Then it's totally them.

Are you sure about that? Your avatar indicates otherwise.ActionDan said:
In all seriousness though, I'm not surprised. That's because I was already surprised some weeks ago when I first saw this weirdness on a documentary. Yes even the whole "psychic vampires" thingy.
I AM CYRUS!!! I WILL ANNIHILATE YOU!!! as soon as i get my chores done.
you have to understand that there are people that believe they are eating jesus body and blood, just because I and billions more do it, its normal. But if a few guys in new orleans do it, its not cool, bro. NOT COOL.

People who think they are vampires are idiots, but I guess its cool being in some sort of a fad. I mean really, who likes drinking other peoples blood? Disgusting.
