quote:So you think that the ability to pass a high school test (or perhaps to correctly spell "referring") determines a person's "worth", and people whom you deem to be "going nowhere" are just fodder who can be sacrificed like cattle? Aren't you the same person who a few months ago was objecting to abortion on the grounds that you're "pro-life", and thus presumably think that all human life is sacred?

i believe that people's actions determine their worth. and yes, i do believe that it is VERY wrong till kill INNOCENT children whose only crime was having a moron for a mother. this is also why i support the death penalty: someone who commits horrible crimes ought to have little worth.
quote:I find it strange that such an educated "uber" person like yourself, doesn't even seem to know our entire western civilisation is build on this "insane" arabic culture.

aww...you think i'm uber
yes, i am aware that the root of most of our mathematics originated near the middle-east region, however this was thousands of years ago. in the modern world, they support the murder of innocents, which is grounds enough for me to believe they are not sane.

...as should people who get low SAT scores, presumably. You seem to infer that people who lack academic ability are worthless and deserve nothing better than to be sent to die in a war. Presumably you believe yourself to have worth; as such obviously enlightened, compassionate individuals as yourself have so much to offer society.

I've already told you that the Israelis kill more civilians than the Palestinians. You seem to selectively respond to certain arguments and ignore the rest.

did i say test scores? some people can not merely take test well. some can't do research papers well. some can't do math well. some can't do [insert project of some class here] well.
individual subject areas do not determine intelligence. i'm not only concerned with strict academic intelligence, but that is the majority of it. when i talk about dumb people, i mostly am talking about those who are intelligent, but do not apply themselves in any useful way. those who waste what they are given. (also stoners....those who live to get 'high')

If bush did not dick around in Iraq in the first place, then we would not be in all of this shit. Now pulling out is not an option. So, let me say it again, BUSH IS A FUCK WAD!

Oh, I see now. As long as you're not talking bollocks or anything.

That is an opinion. The number of civilian deaths incurred in Israel and Palestine constitutes a fact. Possibly a difficult one to verify, but a fact nonetheless. Do I take it you don't believe me then?
