I don't trust cops, reason why is the bullshit loopholes they use to tramp on our freedoms. Fifth amendment guarantees no unreasonable searches or seizures. So what the cops do is ask if they can search your house, car or whatever and if you say no now your being suspicious. Anyways I know they're not all bad, but they're just people, people just as easily corrupted with power as anyone one else.
Christianity is a poweful weapon that in the wrong hands can cause terrible, terrible things. But we can't say that for all religions, I mean look and Budhism - it ain't hurtin' no one. But Islam on the other hand just has to go, it's absurd and it should be controlled - the myths and books on it shouldnt, everything holds some form of knowledge - at best we can learn from it's mistakes. I respect religion and believing in a highed force, I just don't think this is the rightful way. And most of the things, for instance, that Christianity offers are absolutely absurd nowwadays. Sure, it's there for broken people to believe in something, but they should seriously get friends or start doing something, I don't know one normal, good person, that is a christian and has real strong faith just for the hell of it - it's always happening after someone has died, or after a drug addiction or something else. And that's ok - people need to believe in something (for those who can't believe in themselves that is), but Christianity (for which we are talking) is using our faith against us and that's just NOT OK.
Now, to not hurt anyone - I'm just saying that I am speaking of what I've seen here, in Bulgaria. I can speak of some of the rest of the world, but it would be from reading and watching movies - I've not been there, I can't say if it is or is not what I say it to be.
Also I agree on the 'Pedophiles get judged to harshly' statement. Reacently I watched a case on the news - the guy was 40+, and he had sexual encounters with two girls on the ages 12 and 14. This is happening here and Bulgaria, and the guy got sent to jail. The thing is that I believe he was wrongly accused. Everyone who has been to Bulgaria knows what I mean. Firstly he hasn't done it without theire consent, secondly - he couldnt have - the girls in Bulgaria are pretty hardcore, and (I'm not happy when I say this) further more they all start having sex around the age of 13 and it has been like this here for around 6 or 7 years and everyone that has taken more than an hour to just stay and watch through a 'normal schoolday' can get it and know it. But above this case I agree with the statement none the less - Pedophiles have a condition, it has to be cured, not punished - they are not guilty that they are sick - they don't get a choice. This actually is kind of regressive... Like in old time they killed the different children: if one is bourn without an eye it's a demon and they kill it just because it's different. It's something like that - the sick man is different so he gets punished instead of helped.
And lastly, I'm sorry, but people nowwadays are just plain stupid! I can't say what's it like outside of my country, but here every 1,3 person is an total idiot. I'm starting to get depressed at it actually - they don't read, they can't write, they can't even SPEAK correctly. Things are really going downhill. And as a reasult of this stupidity appears needless drama and the burning of smart people's nerves.
Sorry for not making spoiler marks, but I have no idea how to do so. Excuse the long post too. I'm in a flaming mood.
Aren't 14 year-olds usually harder, better, faster and stronger than adults? Plus the medical conditions (not the uncommon ones, I mean the type of conditions every adult gets with rare exceptions) make being a 14 year-old quite easier.
Just my 2-cents, I may be arguing my point the wrong way but I feel that they aren't equal.
Within the next Millennia, it is expected that Dolphins will of started to develop their own language and mathematics. Thats if you know, the theory of evolution is true. (SNAP)
This is a really interesting topic really. I mean because from a math and science perspective you would be expected to quantify and understand the logical implications of the studies on the world and therefore as there is much more hard proof that those subjects have helped the advancement of the human race a lot it could be said that they are more important but from a creative point of view it could be said that the psychological almost spiritual (considering that I would group religion with creativity even though many may disagree) advancements are much more important to our race as a whole. Unfortunately as of yet there is no way to prove the psychological aspect yet so you'll probably have a hard time convincing the maths/science people (like myself) of it's greater importance. That being said there is no way of us convincing you either considering that we would only argue with logic which you have already dismissed as being less important then the application of creativity.
PS: Keep in mind I understand that both aspects to culture are of vital significance I am just talking of a general relative greater importance.
I think you should be able to protect yourself and your property with lethal force.
Gun ownership should be allowed for any non-criminal, non-demented adult over the age of 18.
People should be allowed to carry guns on college campuses.
People should wait until they are married until they have sex. Then again, I don?t demand it, I just think it is a good idea.
Evolution should be taught in schools (controversial coming from a Christian).
Religion and Science are NOT at war. See above idea
I am pro-life. But I think we should stop the ?Abstinence only? sex ed. If they get married someday, they will need to know these things.
Pot should be legal provided that I (as a non-user) don?t have to pay for your habit or rehab. And if you show up high at a job, they can fire you on the spot. Same should be true of booze
Good and Evil do exist. There are absolutes.
Drinking age should be 18. 3 DWI?s and you lose your license for good.
The death penalty should not be used because it is too good for criminals
Our rights come from God. If we are just an intelligent animal with no higher power, I have no real reason to respect your rights. It becomes ?might makes right?
Traditional gender roles are fine for those who choose them. Please stop saying I am miserable because I choose to live the role of a heterosexual male.
I don?t hate furries because of their sexual preferences. I hate that they won?t shut up, and they have the WORST persecution complex of any group ever
Feminism has some good points. However, much like any group, their fringe elements are the worst, and they do more harm than good
Animal rights are a joke, and hunting, even if it is for sport and nothing else, should be allowed.
(DnD related) I respect Lawful Evil more than Chaotic Good, even though I fall into the ?Lawful Good? classification. Also, I freaking HATE Drizzt.
People really need to learn how to take a joke.
Being offended is a choice. Just get over it.
Big Business is not evil. Further, Bobby Kotick is not the devil
(some) Video games do cause aggressive tendencies. But that is still moot. They do not do more so than any other form of media. Need I remind you about John Lenon? Or Ronald Reagan? Books and Movies
Fox News is not evil
Saying ?Nom nom nom? is not funny. It?s stupid.
Busy Street is really funny. No, really. If you haven?t checked them out, do so. Just google them.
Jail should be a place of rehabilitation for some crimes. For rapists, child-molesters, and murderers, they should outright suffer for what they have done.
The UN is useless, and serves only as both a tool of American interests, or of anti-American dictators
Tort recovery for medical malpractice should be capped
Sex =/= love.
Twilight sucks, but the hate has gone too far.
Political correctness and affirmative action are awful policies
Capatalism may not be good, but it?s the best we?ve got
Also, don?t read this and act offended if you are one of the people trying to stop the hate towards pedophiles.
Because you are just going to be offended.
And I am not going to give a damn, but you will still hate what I am saying
Last chance to turn back
Sigh?
Sure you wanna keep going?
Because you aren?t going to like this
Damn, you just don?t give up
Fine, you win
you sure really wanna see something that I said will offend you then FINE!
I think pedophiles are vile people. I really do. I understand that pedophile =/= child molester. But that matters little to me. And I don?t understand why you people are defending them. They are attracted to children, for God?s sake! They need therapy, sure, but defending them like this is just wrong in my mind
So, my opinions are what you get when a Far-Right, Fundamentalist Protestant Christian marries a Libertarian Ex-Catholic Doctor turned Protestant and has a child. Consolidating my beliefs is no small task, I assure you.

Well considering that Jesus was advocating the separation of church and state when he said give ceaser wut belongs to him and give God wut belongs to him.
So Christians shouldnt have a problem with secularism, really.
Hmm, well i burnt my brain out after 3pages, so yeah 10 not gonna happen.
For now i will start with the simplist ones i can think of.
You break into my house, i'm allowed to kill you. I dont know why you're there, if you're armed etc. I fear for my life and that of my family. You shouldn't be in my house as you weren't invited.
You start a fight with me on the street and i beat you down i shouldnt be charged with assault.
You shouldn't be allowed to smoke any where, except a special dedicated sealed room. If you wanna kill yourself go ahead, but no one else should ever have to put up with your smoke in their face.
If you are unemployed for more then 12 months by law you are placed into a work camp to learn a trade and work on public projects ( building roads, feeding sick people in hospital, etc ) to keep recieving payments.
This one is rumoured to be becoming a reality here in australia, but if you're over weight your doctor can send you to a gym as part of your perscription.
All junk food outlets should be closed down and replaced with fresh food markets.
The over use of salt as a perservative and sugar as a flavour enhancer needs to be outlawed for peoples own good.
Office workers need to have enforced breaks every hour to get up away from there desks for 5 minutes at least and work place exercise periods wouldnt go astray either.
now while i am not savvy on the environmental impact of making solar panels i still think every roof of every building / house should be covered in solar panels. No more fossil fuel emmissions.
Every specialised payment from the government to the indigenous people of australia needs to be withdrawn. They can pay their own bills and send their own kids to school on the money they earn from jobs just like anyone else.
Nihlism ftw. The best part about it, is it can't be challenged. There's no meaning in anything. You are insignificant. Nothing you are, you do or achieve will last through time. Life is: irrelevant, without meaning, without purpose, and without value.
Now I don't hold this position, but I cannot argue against it.
I don't believe in evil, as good and evil are completely dependent on your personal opinions.
What is evil to one person could be a great hero to others.
Hitler for example, he was a failed artist, and an opportunist, but he lost, so we view him as 'evil'. If he had been victorious we would (most likely) think he was a great, righteous man, who did what he had to to save humanity, or however he would have phrased it.
I'm sure to Al Qaeda, us Americans are the 'evil' ones. We all judge other groups based on information that a lot of the time, may not be true. I hate to say it, but Brink, despite not having much of a story, I think did a good job portraying the power of miss-information. (Spoilers ahead?) In one of the missions, if you play as the rebel forces, you are tasked with defending a hospital area, being told that the thing you are defending is a vaccine to something. If you play that same mission as the Police, you are told that the rebels are defending a virus that will later be used as a bio-weapon. Each side thinks that the other is some kind of terrible, evil force, but really they are both the same, patriot fighting for what they believe is the right thing to do.
Wow... that was a lot longer than I had initially meant it to be. Oh well...

carbs and alcohol present almost the same amount of calories.
kids eat plenty of bread and cereal.
i think its more of a social aspect of adults feeling pressured to perform at work and relieve themselves by allowing a lazy respite after work.
if people were encouraged to take more breaks during their work time and had enforced workout breaks in the morning / afternoon, less adults would present with adipose tissues.
unfortunately adults given more free will take the avenue of least resistance: sitting on their bum feeling sorry for themselves.
There aren't many diseases and symptoms related to weight gain that cant be overcome through diet and exercise with a massage theropy session at least once a week. This also works for ADHD in my opinion.

my controversial oppinion would have to be that all all geneticly "impure" people (diabetics, epileptics, people with strange alergys etc.) shouldnt be allowed to have children and thus corrupt the rest of the human race -we're pretty far gone already though, i mean ask youself, do you know anyone these days who is PERFECTLY healthy?
