I already sent you that PM..so before I reply here, I am going to wait until we discuss this on MSN and get things straight. You have my point of view completely twisted...and I would prefer, as I...
No, it IS a matter of that. That is what I am talking about...and your differentiation between that, and "unfairness" is wrong. Your argument is PART of the movement I am describing. I believe you...
Your notion that Christians are "forcing" their religion on people is exactly what I am referring to. People believe, that becuse Christianity is so prominent in this country...any mention of those...
@ SpiritWolf -- I'm not going to stop presenting what is actually occuring. I wouldn't compare the "persecution" to the level that blacks endured or anything...but there is definitely a bias towards...
I admit, I am not a big anthropology buff...but you assume I am ignorant because my word usage has negative connotations. That doesn't mean you are ignorant...it simply hints at the fact that I find...
"Primitive" get the point across on a general scale. Negative connotations, or "bias" should not effect whether or not we use that word. If those are dictating that choice...then we DO have an...
This is the third time I have tried to respond..lol. I keep hitting some keyboard combo that deletes everything I typed....VERY annoying.
Anyways...I was going to say that I too was not referring...
Ah yes..the glorification of the barbarian life-style! Not that those people are wrong, or "savages"...but I see the trend of "let's go back to how it was...it was so great!" idea a lot now. That...
Here is an interesting bit I found, written by a Swedish economist comparing the U.S and the E.U on this issue.
"If the European Union were a state in the USA it would belong to the poorest...
First I want to state that I did not say what I said to bash Europe...or state that the U.S is the perfect nation. I was responding to the claim that Europe does a lot of things better than us...and...
It isn't just a biased opinion..and most of Europe is worse or unfluctuating (in a positive direction) in all of the areas I mentioned. I wasn't referring to lumping all of Europe together...I meant...
I can't think of many things that Western Europe does that we should emulate. Their crime, unemplyment rate, taxes, economies etc are all worse than the United States. The things that they do partake...
Thanks again guys...my last year as a "teen" lion! I had a good birthday though =)

You surprised me! I wasn't expecting a birthday thread...lol. I know it is sad I looked for one..*laughs*
Thanks though =) Yes..Happy Birthday to me! *distributes cake to everyone*

Well I admit you have a point in that not all liberals are democrats...but the democratic party is largely made up of liberals. However, the majority of the time...I disagree with liberal viewpoints...
Well, I did this because I don't believe the liberals that hold this point of view make up a minority of the group as a whole. I don't believe they are the "radicals". I believe they make up large...
Im done debating this, because no where did I EVER state that every liberal believes everything I am complaining about. However, if you were to look at the majority of people supporting these things...
I'm done with this topic because I am seeing that point where things are going to take a turn towards the explanation of every word, and every phrase...and I HATE that type of discussion.
1) I...
You have already mentioned that, and it actually does mean open minded...it is actually derived from that meaning. What I mean is that liberal meaning "open-minded" influenced it being used to...
Criticism is generally bad actually..unless it is constructive, which none of this has been. I disagree with religion being a bad thing when it comes to it influencing the people in a nation. I know...
You aren't going to reply to me, and then you directly reply to me...good method.
Why am I being blamed for this? Spirit brought up something I disagree with...it happens all the time. We already...
*LAUGHS* Shadow! You are arguing agianst your own methods! I can't count the number of times I have had to defend America on this board, let alone the amount of anti-Americanism I hear on T.V, etc. I...
Im not trying to continue my discussion with Spirit, but I want to clarify some things.
Intolerance would be not allowing gays around, openly trying to get rid of them, attacking them...
I didn't point out that Americans dislike Europe. I haven't met anyone before that has said they don't like Europeans...in fact I hear moe often how people who don't like the U.S try to compare us to...
Sorry..THIS is my last post...I'm addicted apparently!
*sighs* Overly religious? Those are thier basic religious beliefs. Overly religious would be killing gays, or attacking them. Not using your...
