In my opinion, masturbation is only wrong if someone is getting harmed, or if the individual develops an addiction which interferes with their life. It is a perfectly natural thing to do frequently, but in moderation, and it has been linked to a reduce in prostate cancer in men. It can release...
Hmm, a lot of those answers fit my viewpoint, except the unwillingness to accept a higher power/authority.
Firstly, the answer I chose was the one about organised religions being messed up. The Catholic Church is one of the world's richest organisations. Yet there are people starving in poorer...
I don't have an income, being that I'm too bogged down with schoolwork to get a proper job, and even part time jobs are very, very difficult to get in my town, but yes, I care. I'm even going on an expedition to do community work in Kenya in summer 2012.
Imagine yourself in the position of an SS officer, or one of Mugabe's soldiers. That is what it would be like. Power would be abused, and the poor and the minorities would suffer as a result. The only difference would be that the world would be a little more... chaotic.
I agree with you there, about how commercials ruin television, but the tv companies have to make money somehow, and what better way than to promote a product from a big corporation? Why leave it at one? why not have 20 every 5 minutes?
Seriously, I live in England, and in a 1 hour program, you...
That's probably because they can tax happy meals/fast food, and you can't really tax the illegal drug dealers... just imagine it.. the collectors would probably get shot..
I'm not a parent, being only 16, so I don't really have any experience in the matter, but I agree strongly with what Kathryn is saying. (And her parenting methods. Shame about the waste of money on the kitchen set and cookies though, but I guess it saves in the long run.)
Back on topic, it's...
Hmm... sorry for asking this, and if it seems stupid.. but I've just been curious about what LaVey was actually like as a person. (Being still only 16, I obviously never met him.) Just.. his personality... was he a very individual person like (correct me if i'm mistaken) the CoS holds in high...
if a religion discriminates against others, then it is, in my eyes, not a very good religion. However, that would just be my view, and I would have no right to discriminate against it. Question members of it to try and understand why, yes, but discriminate, no.
I personally disagree with...
Personally, I believe faith in public should be under attack. However, in private, it is up to you if you choose to practice religions (I consider places of worship to be private, in this example.) By public, I mean schools, hospitals, shopping centres, the street, the government etc.
EG: When...
Some grim haikus that
I Give to you now, please read.
I hope you enjoy.
Desecrate their bodies,
I am spawned from hell itself,
I show no remorse.
Starving children cry,
No food, no drink. Only dust.
Bones stick out like twigs.
Sickness eats them all,
Contaminated with plague,
Burn the dead...
