Where do you stand on climate change?

That is not what i asked. I asked wether you would be content (or even happy?) being one of the 'unlucky?' majority sacrificed 'for the greater good?'.

Which sources would i be quoting from? I am asking where your data comes from, and what evidence you have for this claim.

You suggested that people who cannot 'control their instincts' should be 'purged'. As it happens, the few who may have actually succeeded in fully controlling their instincts (Which I doubt, to be honest)... would be Buddhists (or similar?) that have achieved 'Nirvana'.

We should purge the entire human race, because they simply cannot control themselves. Perhaps one day the lions shall rule the planet, and they will understand the principle of restraint. It is with a steady hand that I now press the large red button of human annihilation. God save us all.

RE: Where do you stand on climate change?
They say shit sticks together. Clap
You would have to be a complete moron to think that nothing is happening to the World. Ah, yes it is all a conspiracy.

So, I choose to ignore all of the idiotic attemps(which involves numerous people) at debunking my opinion and name calling, because I am standing firm with all of my beliefs and my freedom of speach, unless you are a facist yourself!!! And if you don't like it, well stiff shit!!!!

And, if I were a facist your heads would be first on the chopping block....Devil

RE: Where do you stand on climate change?
I don't think anyone here has ever suggested that things to not happen to Sol IV. It would be a remarkable conspiracy if things didn't happen. So great a conspiracy, in fact... that i would congratulate those behind it on a job well done. That's a pretty gargantuan conspiracy.

Fine if you call our 'attempts?' at 'debunking?' what you say as idiotic. But do you have anything else to say on them? As far as I can see, we have entertained your ideas. You would 'stand firm with all of your beliefs' despite how debunked your beliefs become...? Sounds religious to me. As far as I can tell, you are not involking the right to free speech... but the 'right?' to be as stupid as ye' like.


I actually question your idea that shit sticks together... but perhaps you mean that it does not exit the body one molecule at a time? I really have no idea what you mean by 'stiff shit'.

The last sentence i also do not understand, no matter how many witty responses i could use in place of this sentence Smile

Neither can I. After all... just how far would debating a 16 year old sea turtle get you? Or even a 127 year old sea turtle... they just never respond in a meaningful way to queries and dialogue :S

I wonder... ib.me.ub? Are you a sea turtle? Thinking

RE: Where do you stand on climate change?
No, it's just your method I don't like. Utter denial of others opinions and a condescendind attitude is a true reflection of your immaturity and personality. It is easy on the internet, but how do you go face to face with some real emotion young lady?

So, as you have had alot of experience in this very shallow & sterlile environment I will leave the games upto you. Now, I will wait for the condescending follow up remark!!

It's currently sustaining 6.5 billion. <snip>

With new technological advances, however, I doubt we will get to that point.

To quote God (David Attenborough). This planet is capable of sustaining 9billion, as the finite fresh water supply wont support any more. & the earth's population will reach that figure by 2050. (That's of course taking into consideration no advances are made in desalination or any other development that negates the need for fresh water to sustain (human) life.

What do you mean by 'Utter denial?' of other's opinions? I'm occasionally condescending (aren't we all?), but I don't think I am usually so... unless you have a different definition for 'condescending' than I do?

As for how I 'go face to face with some real emotion?'... I'm not sure what you mean again...?

Do you mean to ask if I have an emotional capacity? (to which the answer would be: indeed, i cycle between intense positive emotions and intense negative emotions. Right now I am feeling extremely apathetic <as can be witnessed in the bland tone of my posts right now?>)

Do you mean to ask if I can deal with others being emotional? (To which the answer varies based widely on the situation. I hardly think i need to go into details on such a complex issue as human emotions?)

This strikes me as odd though:
Quote:So, as you have had alot of experience in this very shallow & sterlile environment I will leave the games upto you. Now, I will wait for the condescending follow up remark!!
I am assuming the first part to be a reference to the conversations on the internet holding less emotional depth than 'face to face' conversations (although I am not certain you meant this, of course), the second part seems to suggest that I'm playing 'games?' with you (all i was a aware of doing was conversing), and the last sentence seems to assume that I would be condescending in my reply?

I don't understand how you came to any of those conclusions, though I would be interested in understanding what thoughts drove you to them?

RE: Where do you stand on climate change?
Ahh, you now wish to talk about the complexities of the thought process and the human mind. Well, I don't have the time to explain why humans act the way they do. All I can recommend is a dictionary, school, and some spare time!
=============================================
I think that was 2050. Well, thats not so far away after all.

RE: Where do you stand on climate change?
I don't mind if you take a month and a half to write your response... but how in the name of the glorious FSM did you go from what I said to me 'wishing to talk about the complexities of the thought process and the human mind'?

I am not asking why humans act the way they do... I'm asking you what you mean. If I tell you the way to Mulberry Street from Cottonwood Lane... and I tell you to turn left at the Uxgogulorphazhucie: You are more than entitled to inquire as to what Uxgogulorphazhucie is.

Otherwise you might find yourself in Westminster Abbey because you did not understand a key term for the directions to Mulberry Street. :S
