Questions for American Atheists

[cratehorus]

Read what I said about communism again. I wasn't saying it was good or bad, I was stating a fact that human nature twists it. It was good in theory because it was a good system, humans don't do equality though. Its not how we've evolved, its not how we've survived. We are predisposed to attempt to out do each other, this is no longer a sufficent means of survival.

Eugenics would certainly be a means, yes. Of course ever since Hitler looked it up in a dictionary, decided he didn't like that definition and created his own people have been less than receptive towards it. I presume thats the light you're casting it in.

This wasn't what I was suggesting but at the end of the day, what would be wrong with it? So you've altered a few chromosomes to make your child smarter, so what? Now you've altered a few more to make him kinder and a few others to safe-guard against genetic diseases and defects. Perhaps make him more athletic too.
At what point is any of this a bad thing?

SO why are you shitting on democracy then, what do you hope to accomplish? What are you proving? If you can't name or explain a better system then why do you attempt to discredit something else? It is the same situation with the people who complain about obamacare or the federal reserve but can't recommend a single coherent alternative. Representative democracy is the best form of government we have to date, I'm still waiting for any new suggestions, from the people who don't vote in this country (48% of eligible americans) it's amazing that we have a democracy where everyone can vote regardless of race, gender, or religion, something that people are dying for in the arab spring and frankly all over the world, but just Americans don't vote........ apathy, laziness, good ole' fashioned douchebaggery .......whatever it is I just DO NOT know!!!
