Wouldn't it make sense to stop with the preaching, already?

Take a look at the simple banana (and most fruit for that matter). It comes in the perfect package. It tells you that the inside product is not ready to eat yet (green) then it goes yellow so you know it's ready to eat. Finally it doesn't need a used by date as it starts to go black so you know it's time to throw it out. And the package is totally biodegradable.
You can't tell me that a designer (creator) is not behind such an amazing product.

I can't believe how many stupid people there are. I live in a modern western society that spends a significant quantity of money on education and yet there seem to be SO many idiots around.

I seem to have earned a reputation of being a person that never admits when he's wrong. Every time I am accused of this I immediately ask the accuser to site one instance of when I have not admitted that I was wrong and guess what... They can't. I even ask them to point out when I do this in the future and I have never heard anything more about it.

The truth is that they just couldn't understand the arguments I was using in the first place or couldn't themselves admit that they were wrong. The only way they can maintain their ego state is to 'generally believe' me to be the sort of person who can't admit when he's wrong.

Other such accusations I've had to put up with for similar reasons are that I'm too logical or I think too deeply about things or I'm a brainy f*cker.

Please comment!

I was in America for 6 months 5 yrs ago and spent a week in Mississippi and ran in to some deep seated hatred. I know not everyone is like this but just how bad is it and where does this hatred come from and why is it so strong in the south?

when i was growing up my life was crap ..

had an ar$ehole of a stepfather that loved to beat me and my mum up.
i have younger brother and sister but they didn't cope as much as i did...
thoughmy brother did cope some..
my stepfathers logic was if they don't listen make them..
we ran away with mum hide from him..


anyway the reason for this questions is i know that now my mum only did things to stop him from seriously hurting us or worse killing us(he tried to kill my brother once)..
now as a mum i understand why she did all of it and am now understanding of my life..
well the question is did things iin other peoples past help them be better parents...

i know it has for me..

America would be impoverished too if they were following christian laws just like the islamic countries because essentially the laws advised in the two religions are the same! America has flourished because it is a democracy!
