lol, actually you indeed do.

That was probably the coolest response I've ever gotten to one of my fun
little rants. You're obviously a conscious individual (a rare thing, it
often seems). And, more than that, your pruity of spirit and will seem
perfectly intact

Whatever your form of belief may be, you have the distinct ability to bypass
the extraneous and see to the core of, for lack of a more descriptive term,
spiritualism. I have to say that this little statement of yours is in
perfect agreement with my perspective on life, regardless of what may seem
like disagreements. If there were more people with the kind of pure,
untainted spirit you show, well let's just say this war-like discussion (not
to mention the wars! =P) wouldn't be going on.

I've gotta get your opinion on this: What's with all the people who just say
"hi" or "how ya doin?" when they pass, but if you actually say anything to
them, they ignore you? I've taken to responding to standardized greatings
with "Many happy standardized socially acceptable greeting words to you, Sir
or Maam," which I'm sure solidifies my position in their minds as a mental
patient. =D

I can't quite help feeling like this "who's crazy?" argument the world
participates in is a little lame since we're all such lovable whackos. =D

there's more stuff mixed in with quotes down there.

[View Quote] I didn't say there is no difference (and if I did, I didn't mean to)... I'm
referring to a situation where each one plays a distinct role in a cycle
which could be broken on either end. Sure, it might hurt civilizations at
first to remove police, but the first step towards healing always stings,
and it's easier than saying "just remove all the psychos," since it's often
a repressive police state which incites violence in the first place. Prisons
(um, sorry, "correctional facilities") don't reform people, they just make
them bitter. People with severe psychological problems need help, not
punishment. Shame on you, civilization! Revenge is just as bad as the crime.

I believe the only fair system is to return people to interaction on a
one-on-one basis, where no system of power rules over the masses. Granted,
this will instill chaos at first, but not making this change will eventually
lead humanity down a path it... well... doesn't want to go down (I'd say
they're already well on their way...) Either way, they'll eventually learn
this lesson, I just always hope it won't take the drastic measures that
prophets have been warning us about since biblical times and long before....



That is so very true... the concepts behind all of the world's religions are
all inherently good, it's people who use them as an excuse to further their
own agendas who are the real issue. However, these are usually the people in
power, it seems.. =P

> sense

I think a lot of people are filled with excess hate just waiting to explode
on anyone who says something they don't entirely agree with. It's too bad we
can't all realize that just because people disagree on some logistical
semantics doesn't make them mortal enemies.

surroundings
know.
that

This is my favorite part ^^^^
