Poll: Concerning the Human Race, I think ...
This poll is closed.
We can save this planet without catastrophic loss of human life.
22.22%
4 22.22%
It's unrealistic to think that the human race will be around for even another 300 years.
11.11%
2 11.11%
The human race will come near extinction, but I'm confident that it will live on for millenias to come.
27.78%
5 27.78%
We're all screwed because humans as a whole are just too ignorant to save themselves - from themselves.

Human Race: Your Numbers Up

Is it easier to keep your production base when the people you blew off the map were a part of it?

And yes, that is how it works. Not my motto, but what the reality is Smile

Quote:I never said population control by means of birth control would be easy. Emergency actions are often NOT easy to do or easy for a population to swallow. Necessity dictates that we offend a few people in order to save the future. This to me is far better than your proposed solution .... "kill 'em all".

Necessity dictates nothing. People dictate in response to things they deem necessary.

Quote:For fucks sake Sae, you actually said that you support endless war as long as you're not envolved. jesus tapdancing christ! You represent everything that is wrong with our society.
Watch Tears of the Sun some time. I wouldn't wish endless war on anyone.

Of course I support endless war (especially if I am involved). I do not support warring with everyone at once for all eternity.

I represent only myself, leave your society and my society out of your dislike of what I appear to represent Smile

Semantics ... it's the same thing ... and the same result.

endless: no end
eternity: endless
You support war ... regardless of the perameters you put on that support - it's a repugnant attitude

Mere rhetoric. The world will judge you the way they see fit regardless of how you appear to yourself. An example: Hitler represents all that our society abhors. And you'll notice no one gives a shit what Hitler represented to himself.

False. They are different things. If the results were the same then an action deemed necessary could not be prevented or postponed. It's necessary that I shovel the snow off the roof. My laziness prevents it or postpones it.

I support war when it is done within reason, or when those i deem competition perform it without reason and weaken themselves. It is an intelligent attitude... if that disturbs you: please don't go into government.

Hitler was a vegetarian and supported animal rights. I take it our society abhors this?

That has got to be one of the stupidest and intellectually insulting rebuttals I have ever read. Like society EVER judged him according to his views on animal rights and his diet. Common Sae, I know you can do better.

No, they ignored all of the positive elements to him and focused on the things that were not so positive. Hitler was a moron, the germans might have won the war if he hadn't been there Smile

He was also a christian. That was enough for the pope of the day.

This is definitely a rabbit trail from what we were discussing but let me get this straight. You support endless war. You are in favor of seeing the worlds poplulation cut in half by means of those wars and you feel that the world in general judged Adolph Hitler unfairly by ignoring his positive elements.

This just gets better and better. You don't by chance keep a swastika in your belongings do you? Be honest.

Well, it did. I also think most other criminals are tried quite unfairly, with their crimes overrated and their reasons rated lowly.

I do support endless war. I am in favor the world's human population having a check once again.

I don't, but I do have one of those original Buddhist symbols Smile

I can't save the world from you any more than I can save it from the muslims and the christians. Your ideas are just as dangerous and equally as harmful.

You and the christian god may have a lot more in common than you think. He loves killing people for selfish reasons.

My ideas are far more dangerous. Much less harmful.

And yet I do not love killing people. Infact I am a chronic healer Smile
