The problem with videogame violence, is that it is so easy for a kid to shoot a cop, and when he gets caught, scream "GTA made me do it!!!!!11!!!"

Out of the ghetto, with the grime, violence, hate, and horrible lifestyle.
Into the desert with the sand, violence, hate and horrible lifestyle.
Not seeing any positives here, Maus.....
At least in the ghetto you can speak the same language as the guy shooting at you.
Pearl Harbor was diffrent. Everyone agrees on what happened there. On the Trade Center: not so.
As for the fetus issue, just think, If you were working on something on your computer, and a random person just walked up, deleted it, and proceeded to write his Med school thesis paper using the disk space he just freed by deleting your work. Sure, the paper may save people, but wasn't your work important too?
If it would cure cancer, and the person was willing, I would kill them in a heartbeat.
Sorry man. Just hope the recruiters get a tour of duty in the sand too....

He did, at one time.....
You saw how that went...
If the Gamecube can't be modded, there goes the hardcore community....
All of man's problems can be reduced down to the problem that we exist......
Why is this so hard to realise?
I hate the 2-party system. It is screwed up beyond reason....
In a previous thread, these facts were established: Man's greatest enemy is his own existence. Short of genocide, there is no solution to this problem. Also there is no practical way to reduce the risks posed by this enemy. However, our existence is also our greatest ally. The only way to deal with the problem is just to either cope with it, or attempt to use our ally's strengths to fight our enemy's harmul factors. Does anyone have any input on how this can be done?
If nintendo continues this, the Revoulution will be their second to last console. Also, depending on the PSP's long term success, the Game Boy could be looking at only 4 more hardware versions.....
Good point, but it doesn't matter. We shoud just remember to stick to proveable truths. Plus, this thread has now entered an eternal loop. We could argue this to the end of time, and never convince the other person. I vote we pursue some other philisophical thread now. Possibly discussing ways to balance our greatest ally and enemy?

God never once says to hate homosexuals. He says to hate homosexuality, but to show kindness towards everybody.
Im talking on the hardware end. No online play? No DVD player? Link cable? Bongo drums? Please, innovation is one thing, but the last time something was this sorry, it was called the Virtual Boy.....
Creationists believe that all early mans are mislabled apes, humans, or hoaxes. Many have been proven to be such.
Also, don't most birds adapt their environments?
Yeah, but that philosophy cost them millions of dollars......
I use certain swastikas as they were meant to be used: good luck charms....
We can stand now. We have steel axes now. Also, historians say the axe was invented by homo sapien during the stone age. Also, it is hard to prove homo erectus was the first to stand.
Look, the parties are screwed anyway. There is no real Right Wing left anymore. The Republican party is a groupe of moderates. I am conservative, and dislike O'Reilly. He allows for too much hypocracy. Hannity will at least tell the liberals he will let them talk, then he does let them. Savage insults anyone and everyone. O'Reilly claims to support free speech, but still flames liberals. I think O'Reilly should have his show pulled.
It is believed by many scientists that Neandrethal man was simply another race of homo sapien.
I really dislike our govornment anyway. The human cost of war should never be ignored.....

God created the world as a perfect place. WE screwed up. God does want the world to be squeaky-clean.

Why do we need to study percursers? They had no great civilizations, no great technologies, and there is nothing we can learn from them. Plus, that falls also into history, which should only be taught from the beginning of recorded time. Not neccecaarily the Bible, which has been scientifically proven to be the oldest consistent book, but start with what we have discovered. There is very little in modern history textbooks I disagree with, but aincent history should be merely touched on.
As for teaching the Bible, why not just teach it as a piece of literature, alongside other major philisophical or religious books?
Looking at India, it seems to me they are just an ambitious, powerful, hard working nation. If they have any expansionist ideas, it will probably stop after Pakistan....
Okay, the RAF was a bad example. But they do fall within the category of a high loss unit that commanders would just throw at a problem....
You cannot mention the war on terror without at least paying some respects to the 50000 men who have needlessly lost their lives........
Evolution is no more important in any field, than knowing what brand of shoes you have when trying to tie the laces.
The debate has left the original point. We established on the basis of logic that no origin theory can be adequately proven to be truth, and since we agreed that only truth should be taught, origins should not be taught in public schools at all. All that needs to be taught are the facts of existence, which cannot totally be proven either, yet is more logically sound with any set of given facts.
You did, but this debate is not over what to believe, this thread is over man's greatest enemy.....
Keep that debate in the other thread.
