    Does God exist?

    Now. To be honest, I gave up on this thread about 900 pages back, beacuse it is just impossible to keep up, but consider my hand forced lyndallg. I have never seen so many spelling mistakes in my life! I have concluded that there are two options: 1. You are an absolute genius who laid a...

    Hiroshima calls for nuke-free world

    Seconded. It's too late now for us to go back. MAD isn't great, but it's effective. To prove my theory that graphic novel's contain the solution to all the world's problems, I would refer you to Straczynski's Rising Stars, in which a superhero removes all nukes from all countries bar one. All...

    What are you currently Reading?

    Rehashing the Lovecraft addiction I developed in Year 11 Extension 1, specifically Colour out of Space and Rats in the Walls. On a longer, true novel level: Neil Gaiman's American Gods. Basically Part 2 of every myth you have EVER heard of, drawing interesting parallels with contemporary...

    15 Year old kid killed in china on his first day at internet rehab

    Well... that's China for you I suppose. I think maybe its time someone erred on the path less travelled (in a moderately intelligent way, unlike Uncle with his "fuckin internet nerds: they took our jobs!") and wave the PRC flag a little here. In a recent interview with the previous chairman...

    What does feminism mean to you?

    Not to be overly prejudicial, your post does please me, it's nice to see a female anti-feminist, but on average, us males have it pretty good, unless you're Lily Allen or Pink. I do think however that this highlights effectively what most people think of feminism::rofl::rofl::rofl:

    Unwanted teen sex on the rise

    Well put. A crisis could be afoot. Who knows what other criminal ambiguities could arise if we continue with these euphemisms? To be fair though, Gary's "Rapist Code" was a LITTLE excessive. Not ALL men are rapists...:rofl:

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHA...HAHA...HA..HA..HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.HA...HA..HA..HA... Oh man, seriously though, do you honestly believe what you just posted? Does anyone HONESTLY believe this crap? I'm now convinced that all religion is is a...

    Gay people should not be allowed to access IVF

    You and me both Sirius. What's up with that? Personally, the issue for me isn't whether they can access IVF, as opposed to whether they should receive government support for the process. The first one, I believe the answer should be yes. The second should be on a case-by-case basis. And to be...

    Corporal punishment?

    If done right yes. To borrow from the arguments of Sirius, anyone who touches my kids other than me- fuck the courts, I'll string their asses up on meathooks. This isn't to say I advocate parents beating their children, but corporal punishment is a necessary evil to raise productive members of...

    Israel tells United States to mind its own beeswax

    Well done sstr. I am most impressed. It's good to see a real examination of the facts of the case, as opposed to:-

    Men arrested in Melbourne over army base suicide attack plot

    To be clear, the gate that has been plastered all over the media in an attempt to highlight how "defenceless" the barracks really is, was not the front gate at all. The front gate is actually about 1km down the track from the gate in question, down a winding road with armed army personnel (not...

    Israel tells United States to mind its own beeswax

    This may be the most ridiculous thing I have EVER heard! Given that Israel has repeatedly kicked the absolute SHIT out of every nation that has ever taken it on since its creation in '48. Despite superior numbers, sneaky tactics, dirty fighting AND pressure from the west, I think they'll be just...

    What does feminism mean to you?

    Well put. The more radical feminists specifically are increasingly of the opinion that you can't be an equal rights advocate without being a feminist. It's views like these that are the reason that no one takes them seriously on an academic level. Burning of bras aside, feminists evoke feelings...

    Corporal punishment?

    I believed you missed out "un-American" in that list of adjectives. In all seriousness though, I have to agree with you, it is a necessary thing to raise a "productive member of society" for lack of a better term.

    year 2100: China vs USA.

    For someone who has such an awesome looking avatar, I almost feel bad for taking a critical approach. But you have forced my hand. First of all: China is populous due to its large populace, in a relatively intellectual topic as this one, you have an obligation to use correct grammar:burn: But...

    year 2100: China vs USA.

    This post (hereafter referred to as "The text") pleases me, although not in the conventional sense. As such, I feel obligated to disect it part by part:- Point One: North Korea has already angered the world through the testing of "nukes", and thus far, very little has been done, although Kim...

    Do you support the use of Torture ?

    That may be so, but it is also necessary. Our soldiers are working to uphold the system we live under and the life we enjoy, they provide us with freedom, the last thing we should be doing is having the pure audacity to question the methods by which they provide it. As such, I support torture...

    Homosexuality in Australia

    It becomes very hard, after reading the above article, to remain true to my beliefs. I am, and always will be, an advocate of free speech, in all forms, and after defending the chaser in their recent antics, I think it might be best to err on the side of hypocrisy in saying that: These...

    Obama Addresses the Middle East

    Personally, I get the distinct sense of Deja Vu from Mr. Chamberlain... I mean Obama. In true appeaser fashion, he tried to strike an accord with the bad guys, knowing full well that it can't have a truly significant effect. History tells us that, in situations like this, words alone are never...
