This whole discussion is POINTLESS. Either time travel is impossible and is therefore not worth discussing OR time travel is possible and is therefore happening all the time (in terms of causality) and we're completely unaware/unaffected by it.
Lemme guess, you're using Firefox, you've got at least two web pages open, the first one has some media application playing and the one you're trying to type in won't let you use apostrophies, right?
Happens all the time. You gotta be tying in the first window and running the media in an second or subsequent window. Weird bug, only happens once in a while but it's annoying.
For young girls, they want an older boyfriend because they feel more secure and also because they're looking for someone who they assume is more sexually experienced. In adult relationships, the woman prefers an older man because that way she remains the young one in the relationship. Remember, women are culturally conditioned to be obsessed with youth and beauty, so anything, ANYTHING that enforces either of those concepts makes them happy, even if it's as simple as being with an older man (making them by default, younger).
Remember gentlemen, it's never about you, it's always about them.
I have a theory. When you die, your brain releases a whopping dose of DMT, a neurochemical normally released when dreaming in very small quantities. Now, we've all had the experience at some point of having a dream that felt like it lasted for hours and suddenly snapping awake to realize we'd only been sleeping for a few minutes. That's indicative of time dilation, at least perceptually. Logically then, a massive dose of DMT should create a near infinte sense of time dilation, meaning that whatever hallucination you're having when you die (heaven, hell, whatever) will effectively last forever from your perspective, even though in reality you'll be a stiff in short order.
If this post is facetious, bravo. If it's not, your BS meter may be in need of repair. Beck's mouth produces more garbage per second than most major cities.

So much better at sucking, you mean. How's your economy doing? Oh and foreign policy? Healthcare? Border security? Infrastructure? Education? Crime rates?

I've never eaten KFC, its something I want to do before I die.
Are you joking? If not, I pity you, KFC gravy is one of the finest triumphs of chemistry! I swear you could eat old tires with it, it's THAT good.
Interesting side note, you notice how you never see rats around a McDonald's dumpster or how you never see seagulls around a KFC, even when it's near water? Curious...

Some people are medically born gay. Now argue that.
You mean genetically, right?
Enter eugenics.
Pure eugenics wouldn't solve it, it's anomalous not something we can "breed out". You'd have to follow the Mengele model and destroy the embryos that showed the abberation.

no wonder ders always so many retarded(by that i mean really stupid people eg blondes) people
sure ya never know some weird shite mite happen
Actually blonde is a recessive gene, so there's less and les of them all the time. Eventually, as the human race continues to interbreed, natural blondes will become extinct.

Umm... because it's wrong?
Says who? You? See, you have your own personal set or morals, they're not universal.
I think humanity is bored to the point where same sex is interesting if you guys are trying to convince me that homosexuality is ok.
You don't have to think it's ok. Hell, I find it a little creepy myself but shouting moral pronouncements won't change anything (espescially considering it's a genetic issue, not a "lifestyle choice").
Humans no longer need to evolve naturally, we haven't since we created the first tools and suddenly discovered we could manipulate the environment to suit our needs. Now we steer evolution through vaccines, genetic research and cybernetics. Soon we'll achieve technological singularity and enter a post-human era. In other words, we will intiate the next evolutionary change ourselves.
The existence or non-existence of God (or gods) cannot be conclusively proven either way because by definition alone, a superior being is SUPERIOR and we (and all our various sciences) are INFERIOR.
Religion is a human invention. It does not have any effect whatsoever on the existence/non-existence of God(s). It does however have a tremendous effect on US. So, if you're going to try and make these arguments (or link to videos that provide same) you should take a moment to define exactly what it is you're arguing against: God or religion. The two are very, very different.

Einstien's IQ was much higher than that. 160+ is considered genius IQ. Bullshit online IQ tests are not as accurate as those performed by psychologists who can interpret choices rather than simply record correctness and speed.
