Do people just naturally want conflict

RE: Do people just naturally want conflict
I've said before that I used to kill people for $8.27/day. Conflict is what you make of it.

When conflict comes for me, like a true coward I run from it. It is doubtful employers see it my way when I quit a job, however.

It's like flecks of smart sounding stuff bubbles up when the drain opens but then goes away.

That’s just silly. Conflict stops when one of the parties gets beaten to dust.

Or you could just do it the easy way and come to a mutual understanding.

People beat each other to dust precisely because coming to a mutual understanding is NOT the easy way.

You may possibly have heard about a little dust up called ‘World War II’. How well did ‘mutual understanding’ work for that?

Is that figure adjusted to account for the days you didn’t kill anyone?

Well I think it would be the easy way. If people want to be overly aggressive douches I can't really help that.

I never considered being Catholic to be the same thing as being Christian and I still don't.
One time in alt.atheism we outed a fake veteran by getting him to tell us about the boxes of .208 caliber ammunition he used to hump around "the 'Nam".  Ain't no such thing.   Stolen valor gets the hunters all riled up.
