Lets not forget, No man is big enough to do anything by himself. The most frantic of your energies cannot change a wave of the sae, or the color of the grass, or the spread of a tree.

The above is so bad I'm going to pass commenting on it because the heights of profanity I would need to ascend would ensure being banned for life

Quote from jaronimo:
Maybe you need to rethink your postion? Because it has been my experience that a person that has to resort to profanity to debate his position is either ignorant or totally unprepared with regards to the topic being discussed.
Please don't take that as an insult. Thats not how its meant. It just gets old when people here resort to profanity and namecalling because they run into people with different opinions. Not even opposite opinions, just different. Its almost like they believe they can change someones mind by trying to bully them. LOL.
If you reread my posts on this thread you may realize I am against kids dying, pollution, etc. Sometimes I just like to reframe the debate to show a different outlook on it. I sometimes get the impression that people spout the same rhetoric without actually thinking of the consequences of what their thoughts actually demand. Not you obviously, I was referring to everyone else.![]()
Quote from Cutten:
Imagine being an intelligent, free-thinking, rational woman living in, say, Bangladesh or the Democratic Republic of Congo. Or a gay man in the arab world. Or a democrat in Burma. A natural capitalist and practising catholic living in 1930s Russia. A libertarian in practically any country on earth. Life would look pretty f*cking grim, wouldn't it?
