    Yeah, they should have just pushed those fuckers(non-conformists) over the edge a long time ago when the world was still flat! Coulda saved us some time and resources...;)

    LOL that is fuckin' great. For some reason that comment reminded me of "Brick Tamland" from the movie Anchorman...

    Some would argue we already have.

    Even the most ardent evolution scientists can't explain how life actually started.
    science would rather not give you some bullshit reason just to put your mind at ease... religion on the other hand :rolleyes:

    there are TONS of mysteries in the scientific community... thats what makes it so compelling to many as a career

    im with ya on welfare though... i consider myself a compassionate, liberal minded person... but im also irish... and we know something about working our way up from nothing... no one should get free hand outs... but until employers give minorities and the impoverished equal opportunity at employment, welfare is a necessary crutch

    I'm lost.

    Science vs. Religion

    Helping out each other
    Evolution

    This thread is kind of all over the place.

    Evolution = Indisputable fact of nature
    Helping each other out - how can that possibly be a bad thing?

    Life is simply a sum of the choices we all make. If someone chooses to not work, there are consequences to that choice. There might be programs to help that person get by, but there are still major consequences.

    If someone is a good, honest person and chooses to works hard and, usually there are positive outcomes to that choice.

    If someone is sick or disabled or even poor - how can a good and honest person (see above) or collective people turn their back?

    It is natural to 'let the weaker less productive human capital die off', what world you living in? I question the evoluion theory in hope rather than knowledge or certainty.

    Although, reckon over the next 1000 years a genetically superior upper-class will develop, as in Huxley's novels.

    hmm maybe cause evolution does not equal social darwinism.


    less productive human capital??? can you define this for me?

    my parenting will likely lean more towards this approach than the shitty overparenting the majority of young parents do these days... forces kids to be strong and self-sufficient... sure times have changed... but not as much as some of these young parents would lead you to believe... let kids have fun!
