    "I'm Offended"

    That's an expectation you project onto the world. The world is not obliged to reflect that expectation - and indeed often wont.

    "I'm Offended"

    Growing up and dealing with it.

    "I'm Offended"

    Yeah it's a perennial complaint. 'I'm offended.' So be offended. What's wrong with being offended? When did Sticks and Stones May Break My Bones stop being relevant? Isn't that what you teach children? 'He called you a name, son? Don't worry about it, he's a dick.' But now you have adults...

    A Word on Political Correctness VS Free Speech

    Tell them to woman up! On another note: I have some gay friends, but I also have some homophobic friends. Some of my gay friends are always shocked to learn that some of my other friends might be homophobic. 'They're homophobic?' 'Yep'. 'Well they shouldn't be.' 'Well they are.' 'Well...

    A Word on Political Correctness VS Free Speech

    Sometimes you hear about people complaining about political correctness, and how it's destroying free speech. So I just wanted to say: You most certainly can: - Insult minorities - Insult sexualities - Insult religions - Insult people for their politics - Insult people for their gender -...

    Today Rival...

    Humans didn't evolve to eat meat originally, it's true. We did, however, adapt to eat meat over time.

    Today Rival...

    I don't necessarily disagree with you Wiz, don't get me wrong. I mainly argue the Vegan/Vegetarian rhetoric of 'It's cruel!' and 'You're killing animals!' Sure it's cruel. But so is a painful and agonizing death at the hands of poison laid out to protect their precious vegetables.

    Today Rival...

    Even in classical agriculture if a bunch of rabbits destroys your crop, the farmer usually uses or hires dogs to go and find these rabbits and destroy their warren. Sure, the death toll is much greater in industrial farming, but it's never animal-death free. I'm not using it as a justification...

    Today Rival...

    But animals die whatever your diet is! Millions upon millions of voles, shrew, mice, rats and rabbits and insects are swept up into the blades of combine harvesters, or poisoned by farmers to protect crops, or hunted by rabbiting dogs to clear their warrens in the pursuit of growing...

    The doctor once told me that I had hypochondria. I said 'Oh no! Not that as well!'

    The allure of Trump

    He'll drop out of the presidential run, and Jeb Bush will win instead.

    Has the 2nd Amendment become a Religion?

    Trouble is that very rarely do people argue for the right to free speech. What they really argue for is Freedom from Accountability to To What They Say.

    Has the 2nd Amendment become a Religion?

    Well one could argue religion as a mechanism is already quite good at tainting itself as a word.

    Has the 2nd Amendment become a Religion?

    Interesting article. As ever, discuss: http://bigthink.com/21st-century-spirituality/has-the-second-amendment-become-a-religion?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Facebook&utm_campaign=Echobox&utm_term=Autofeed#link_time=1452214422

    Should You Feel Embarrassed for Fulfilling Biblical Prophecy?

    I don't go to church. But yeah, a few of the 'modern' (read: white middle-class western) churches that I have visited have had bars.

    wealth in christianity: how can you reconcile wealthy religious people?

    They had better start investing in methods of passing camels through needle eyes.
