Dude, no. Just no. If I didn't have one when I was two, my penis would have swollen further and I'd have to have it amputated.Genuine Evil said:

I had a similar idea as a child, but I stumbled upon problems with equity between people who don't do anything or people who do (what I consider to be) more important jobs being repaid.
I ended up re-creating money in a long winded way.
I'm a catholic Deist.
I believe that God started up the universe, gave some people inspiration to come up with some good moral concepts and than went off to relax and watch how we use the life we are given.
Edit:
Also I believe atheists that believe in a strong actions against religion because religious people are prosecuting non-religious people. Are becoming the same thing they are trying to fight, just without a cross or other symbol on their wall.

I think that children's lives are inherently more valuable than those of adults, also I'm an atheist who admires much of religion and it's principles and hopes it continues to play a part in many people's lives. I think that animals deserve few if any rights other than not being made to under extreme suffering. I think that paedophiles who don't abuse children or use child porn involving real children should be given help and support rather than condemnation and I think the age of consent in the UK should be raised from 16 to 18 but with a legal allowance if there's enough similarity in age between partners if one or both are underage.
I believe that the music tastes of the general public are in rapid decline since 2005 and have been slowly degrading since the end of the 90's.
Music is also dead as an art form.
I believe CDs are the only real way to listen to music, MP3's and other compressed-to-all-hell audio data formats are the bane of the music industry.
Nobody really needs a Facebook or Twitter account.
All news stations are lying to you to some degree, do your own research and form your own opinions.
(Related to above) anyone who overreacts to something mundane they saw on the news is instantly regarded as immature in my eyes. For example: putting make-up on a 6-year-old is not grounds to go on an emotional tirade about pedophilia or "over-sexing our youth", I still see them as children, the fact that you made that connection makes you far guiltier than I.
Euthanasia should be legal, but controlled.
All fetishes and sexualities are a total non-issue and nobody should bring them up or care about them if it does not harm them or society in any way.
Also that one on the first page about pedophiles is one I agree with.

Umm, I say fuck most of the stuff governments do,because the people do it way more efficiently and at cheaper prices too.
the only things governments do more effectively than their citizens is organize for total war.
societies consist of thinking,learning,working people that can solve most if not all of their own problems if they took the time to realize it.
if given the chance crime can be reduced or even irradicated in areas where drugs are legalized,people can effectively defend themselves and the citizens have community networks for individuals at risk. there are countries in the world with class differences that don't suffer issues of crime and unrest because people are able to move up and down the socioeconomic ladder.
people are indeed responsible for many of the outcomes that occur in their adult lives.
people are more effective taking care of themselves and their immediate family and community than the state trying to take care of everybody.

Topic is America and their accents, and how my experience of them has caused 'strong dislike'
It is my experience that most Americans are 12 year olds who call me G*y, say that i F*** my mother and insult me for being British... that is why i 'hate' them(also because they created Disney, and insist on talking about 'football'(AKA 'Armored Rugby')..., and the accent annoys me(Nevada is the WORST, With 'Dad's from Fallout 3 being the least annoying(because he sounded almost Engish...))
Personally, I think everyone should be forced to read an entire holy text before saying that the respective religion can go burn.
At least humans can give it some meaning (in their perspectives). Despite what many people think, planets do not have feelings. They do not need to be "saved". If humans screw up too hard, the planet will kill them itself. No need to commit mass suicide, that's giving up before the fight is done.
Simple: If all humanity died, then you've kept some rock floating in space greener for a few thousand/million years before it gets hit by a meteor and blows up.Cheesus333 said:

Happy eighteenth birthday, you're now officially on the bottom rung of society! Plus, you go to prison for doing dumb things now!
Hmmm ok - if we've all been granted immunity and what not:
Abortion should remain legal. There is nothing wrong with it to an extent depending on the amount of time one has been pregnant. Also, under special circumstances, for example if the child is knowingly going to be born heavily disfigured - of course, the choice is the parents'. I for one cannot imagine what I would do in that circumstance, and hope that I will never, ever have to experience it, but I would always like the option.
I hate religion. Moreover, I hate the fact that the only religions I can openly insult are those in which the majority of believers are white, or else I'm deemed racist. It's not racism. Although saying that, the religion I know most about is Christianity so...yeah.
However everyone is entitled to their own opinions and beliefs. I would never arbitrarily attack a religion just because I disagree with it - only if I am provoked, in which case I will rant. I mean in the event that someone continues to preach to me, or looks down on my because of my beliefs, or if a group of religious activists do something that I think is completely wrong and inappropriate a la Westboro Baptist Church (however, I am also fully aware that these people do not represent the Christianity as a whole; they just speak for themselves).
Hm...I think those are my two biggest. I'm sure I've got more; I'm a pretty opinionated guy, but I cannot think at the moment.
