Quick Ros! but i didn't feel the need since nobody knows the genius. hes Alexi Ubriski i think it is. thanks for keeping me on my toes! i beleive it so i take it as my own any way :D Edit: Went back and edited it

"I think politics and philosophy in these times are important to mix. Now, politics, itself, is one of the many fields of philosophical inquiry, but only in the context of speculations on the ideal society as opposed to society as manifested. But most politics are pragmatic politics and those are in no way ideal, nor, I believe, can they ever be ideal. The goal is to approach the ideal as closely as possible. For those of us seriously engaged in Historical analysis and/or criticism, philosophical analysis and/or criticism, and speculations into all the many divers fields of Metaphysical inquiry. Pragmatic politics are important only in the way that they impact on our ability not simply to speculate and hypothesize because politics cannot impact much on private meditations. But they are important in relation to our being able to share our thoughts with others publically. When speculative thought becomes secretive it is a sign of a degenerated society." -- Alexi Urrivksi

Not allways, but there is risk. It a capitalist society you MUST take risks. For people who are communist or Socialists are not risk takers. They want everything handed to them. Im sorry, but the government is not your nanny. BTW: WITHTEETH how old are you? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 22

Brother in law is in Iraq strapped to a gun in a helicopter. what a great oppertunity! True story

213374U, i was saying i coulnd't rationalize god, whats arrogant about that?

you said socialism .. which kinda means communism.. but Social Democracy wouldn't work in USA I think .. you need another mentality for it! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> grr hope dies last!

Ask any scandinavian here, and they will boast how well their social democracy is doing. And by the way you just named off Social dictatorships i believe.

The duckbilled platopus doesn't fit into the mammal category, you know why? becasue our system is not good enough! its the same for people, our system is just not good enough yet.

I really wonder how much money goes to the poor through the organization. IBut if we add socialism to our democracy, can't you see how much more good it would do Capitalism isn't helping me and you, its helping the corporations. only 10% of the US owns 90% of the money. thats not right, so lets balance it. a good education can go along way, and the comfert of healthcare can make people like paying their taxes.

They are suppose to be mild

Im a Lutheran. All I need is to have faith in God to have his gift of salvation. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yea yea i was brought up to be Lutheran. i just couldn't rationalize their beleifs. oh by the way... Jesus helped poor people his whole life, how come christian republicans don't follow his example? They seem to just want to exploit , or look at them with a smug content look.

Life starts at conception. I believe in souls. Im a Christian and I believe in the Holy Spirit , God, and Jesus was the son of god. Also note late-term abortions is sickest form of a abortion there is. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> YOu heard it right "I BELEIVE". you just made an assumption that god exists by just believeing. should others have to follow you because you made that leap of faith? P.S. If you don't like abortions, don't have one. P.S.S. i believe in Unicorns! (w00t)

Im shocked too. what happened here in the U.S. Bush won really showed me how far we have to go still after all this time...

SteveThaiBein thanks for the viewpoint. always unbiased

Has anyone here looked at a mans face as you try to shoot him before he shoots you. both from the same generation, both taught different ideals. a misundersatning of 2 humans that led to this. i hope i never have to, id rather go to jail.

If you don't like abortions, dont have one.

actually were a sorta democratic republic

"Hey without the invsion of Iraq. Saddam will be in power milking the Oil for Food program. The Kurds and Shiites will still be 2nd class citizens. Also the adding a new democratic regime is re-starting democratic revolutions in the middle east. The lebanons are revolting agaist their Syrian occupiers, the Kurds and Students in Iran are revoting with more strength, the Saudis are now adding some sort of democratic reform, Egypt will now start multi-party elections, and the Kuwaiti women are asking for the right to vote. Also note we have a Kurd and a Shiitte as President and Prime Minister of Iraq. The terrorists in Iraq is about 10,000 storng and only composed of mostly Syrians, Jordianians, Egyptians, Iranians, and Saudis. Also most of the Iraqi people hate the terrorists. The most popular TV show in Iraq is a show that shows terrorists for what they are and mock them. The Iraqi National Army is almost strong enoth that they can do most of the defense them selves. Also strikes agaist US troops is at a all time low in three years and most of the terrorist attacks are agaist Iraqi troops and Iraqi civilians. So do you believe bring democracy is still wrong?

hate to tell you but by definition, social security is known as a pyramid scheme. funny how pyramid schemes are illegal for normal citizens to run, yet somehow a necessity for the government. get real. the "drain" is social security itself. it's a 14% tax on our payroll to pay for current retirees that don't have brains enough to save a few bucks while working. taks <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 1st: Cool down, i am a real person... or maybe just energy. 2nd: Social Security was made to stop older poor people from going homeless 3rd: I understand where the money goes, and i don't mind helping out others when it comes back to me. 4th: i was talking about the change in sopcial secuurity is not rational. don't make this personal bud

I haven't had time to read the whlle forum but i am from the United states and her eare my opinions: I hate bush personally. but don't hate americans please it wasn't a "just war" by Aquines and also some people like to fit Empathy in with the rules. becasue terrorism breeds terrorist and i think our regime is creating it, or already. and i just read on BBC News ,com that saddams army is almost entirely from his old regime. way to go bush! Buck Fush! Also im all for socialism and what bush is doing to our Social security is just dumb. why tear out the kitchen when all youi need to do is fix the drain? grrr Also i dont mind republicans alot of them are nice but extreme radical christians are nutz, they need to spit there apple out of their mouth and relaize they didn;t eat from the tree of knowledge, because it doesn't work that way. And to the pharmicists who reject our women from having the day after pill. GET A NEW DA#@$# JOB!!!!!!! As the arrogent donald trump would say "your Fired"
