After someone crosses the age of eighty, people are not allowed to use hospitals unless they can afford to pay for the procedure or treatment without the use free health care. Not to sound too heartless but it costs a lot of money to keep people alive that should have died naturally a long time ago.
i actually do agree with that. the problem these days is that people are acting on emotions not logic

The Beatles are fucking terrible.

Bacon isn't all that great.

Nightwish sucks.

Most Europeans who claim that "American beer sucks" don't know fuck-all about real beer, either.

I like texting but I want to punch people who talk in text form, it does not expedite conversation, it makes you look like an imbecile.

I hate Avatar with a passion and it still grinds my gears how successful it has been.

I have no problem with day 1 DLC

Bioware is my favorite developer, it seems recently I've been alone on that.

However KOTOR 2 is better than KOTOR 1 with the content mod.

Dragon Age Origins is better than Mass Effect, but both are very awesome.

Valve and Majong are totally overrated. Portal was good but not the second coming.

Beat that.

Most christians should love you. The Catholics will hate you though...
Not sure how many Non-Catholic Christians you've met, but most I've known are just as zealous about the Bible as Catholics. I've known quite a few, too. I used to be all in to the Youth-group, Christian clubs back in High school. Out of all of them, maybe 1 or 2 would admit skepticism about the bible.

prisons should not exist criminals should be executed IMMEDIATELY after conviction, far to many Horrible examples of humanity live for decades on "death row" when they should fucking be killed right after the gavel falls. we spend far to much money on these people when it could be better spent on the things that are really needed.

i have others but im not going to get into arguments about hot topics, i do that enough in ethics class

I strongly believe the idea of "It's either all okay [to make fun of], or none of it is" is insulting, idiotic, and grotesquely absurd. Not everything is meant to be funny. Fuck you, South Park. Fuck you, Family Guy. Fuck everything else that promotes this asinine idea.

"But George Carlin said even rape can be made funn-"
Yeah IF IT'S PORKY PIG AND ELMER FUD! And even then it's the initial idea people laugh at. Actually seeing that would be horrible.

If you laugh at rape, child death, abortion, miscarriages, someone's disability, racism, and genocide you're just letting yourself become a product of a society possessed by this plague of an idea.

This. Isn't. Funny. The reason many people think it is is because of how long they've been bombarded with this kind of gross humor. Others think the same because they grew up with it.
_Yet, as odd as it may seem, there's tons of people who disagree with me on this.

Um, Determinism.
And I don't believe in the concept of nature, or that it is possible to be 'unnatural'.

Also, 'belief' holds no truth value.

And that 'the family' is not the best way to raise children.

I can't beat that, but I can join it. I unquestionably believe that God exists and loves me and that the man we call "Jesus" was the purest expression of that love.

I also believe in evolution, that the Earth is 4.6 billion years old, and that the vast majority of the Bible is meant to be taken figuratively or contextually, if not outright ignored.

You are not alone.
Yay for people that share my view.
I believe that God could exist (I hope he does), that the Bible is mostly wrong (and has a lot of contradictions), that religion can be used for good and that the only thing wrong with religion is the bad people within it.
I believe that both religion and science is an important part of the Human race!
Just for reference I'm Christian which usually isn't a popular stance around here.

Actually when you look at the bible as a whole instead of it's individual parts there are less contradictions.

Also the Bible is not in chronological order although they do have chronological Bibles nowadays (it makes more sense)

Another unfortunate thing is the original text was in Greek, and Hebrew then translated into Latin, then into English and both Latin and English are inadequate for a proper translation.

However possibly the most important thing is the Bible was in the hands of the Catholic Church Pre-Reformation which during that time they were among the most corrupt human beings on the face of the planet (they weren't much better afterwards for a long time, and even now there's still a lot of problems within the Diocese)so who knows what they did to the Bible.

Note: I believe in evolution I just believe that God made it happen. I believe the the six days weren't days as we think of them, but different periods in time, and were only referred to as days because there wasn't really to much else to call them.

OT: Collectivism (communism, socialism, anarchy ect. ect.) is the worst thing humanity has come up with, and Objectivism seems to be a knee jerk reaction to collectivism. Objectivism just seems incomplete to me. However Capitalism is the best system, and I'm for a flat tax. Also writing Faux news instead of Fox news is NOT clever or funny seeing that FAUX is pronounced the same way as FOE it just makes you look like an idiot. LEARN PRONUNCIATION, and no I'm not a fox news fan. I don't like any news organization.

While I agree with your point, I disagree that the videos are not funny because:
1 they made me laugh, and I've not been bombarded with this kind of humor at all, and
2 they aren't laughing at rape, although rape is included. They are laughing at the ridiculous fears of Americans and Aquaman respectively.
I agree that if the second video didn't have aquaman, it wouldn't be funny. It would just be rape.
I would say, though, that shows like South Park are important for challenging perceived limits that society imposes, which often mean topics don't get broached, like not giving kids sex education and acting surprised when they get pregnant later.

I think Dragon Age 2 is a great game.

A majority of people seem to agree with me, just not on this site.

Dragon Age 2 is better than Origins.

Justin Bieber clearly has some sort of talent to have gone through puberty and still have a recording contract.

Gundam Seed Destiny isn't as bad as everyone makes it out to be.

It's important to be able to laugh at the bad things as well as the good things, in fact I had a good laugh reading your ignorant little rant. You made no real points you resorted to swearing, yelling, and insulting the people you are trying to discuss with.

my parents and other parents say that video games make violent children. i say its the shitheads from their generation fucking with us on the community of our games. if it isnt a game that their generation would play, then its unlikely that itd make us violent, eh?
