Quote:It's overpopulated in the sense that we need 2 Earths to make Humanities current consumption sustainable, if we all had much less it'd be ok.Quote:Abortion makes sense especially in cases of rape, or the parents being unable to provide for the child in this rediculously overpopulated world.How is the world ridiculously overpopulated?
Quote:Capitalism is wrong, material items won't make you happy, consumerism simply makes the word a far worse place for you're descendants.
Quote:Capitalism has existed for thousands of years just fine. It's when governments seek to impose restrictions on the free market that we get into trouble. Capitalism is the only system based on fairness; i.e. you get money in proportion to the skill / amount of work you do.I believe it's based on greed, and while that is an effective motivation, it is not a moral one. I'm very Federation of Star Trek minded, for the good of the community.
True we should replace fossil fuels rather than suddenly stop, but since you mocked my position on climate change I don't think going into this any further would be in anyones interest.
Quote:Gay/Lesbian marriage is fine by me.
Quote:All state-sponsored marriage is ridiculous (and meaningless) in my view. Let religion handle religion; let the state handle protecting civil rights and upholding the law.I see marriage as a religious thing too but heteros having more human rights and benefits than gay people is wrong to me.
Quote:We are atleast part responsible for a mass extinction happening now.
Quote:What mass extinction?You didn't know we are living through a mass extinction event??
The chocolate thing relates to the fact that most cocoa is produced by slave children and palm oil is in most chocolate, it comes from malaysia and the rainforest which our ape cousins live s being destroyed to produce it.
Can't get along with everybody..
