Firstly, I need to correct something. I made the comment that the constitution mentions life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, when in fact it is mentioned in the declaration of independence. I am aware of this fact, and mistakenly mentioned it as being in the constitution. However...

I think it's safe to say that you don't understand democracy. Under a democracy, people are entitled to vote according to their conscience and beliefs, and are not bound by any external forces or regulations to vote in any specific way. The fact that you used the words "I think" qualify your...

There was nothing to refute. I already stated in my initial post that it would never be universally practiced, but that the fact that it would be cataclysmic if it were should act as an indicator that it isn't good. You really didn't pick ANYTHING apart here. All you did was say "this will...

Apparently your religion of humanism allows you to discriminate on the basis on opposing views. My religion allows me to hear you out, give you a chance to speak, and asks that I treat you with respect, now matter how abhorrent I believe your statements to be. Your religion tells you that...

Does *your* religion of humanistic thought allow you to change your mind? What will you do if it turns out that there is actually a God, and that He actually did forbid homosexuality? Would you be willing to change your mind and try to understand why He forbid it, and why/how it was...

This is certainly putting words in my mouth. I never once said that God hates homosexuals. In fact, I believe quite the opposite. I do believe that homosexual acts are sinful, but I also believe that Jesus died for SINNERS (which includes *everyone*). His forgiveness comes as we give up our...

If you believe in God, do you believe that he's a bigot? Why did God design human bodies so that only a male and a female could procreate? If you don't believe in God, why did evolution do so? Medical science still hasn't come up with a way to let gay couples have a child that is genetically...

This is a bit of a tangent, but it was dripping so thoroughly with ignorance that I couldn't ignore it. If you don't inherently distrust statistics, you've either never taken a course in statistics, or you slept through it. Statistics can be and ARE used to support just about ANY position...

Not according to a little something I like to call "facts". 13.5 million members worldwide (found on the right side panel) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Church_of_Jesus_Christ_of_Latter-day_Saints Compare to Judaism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_religious_groups...

Actually, Card isn't a representative of the mormon church at all. If a catholic person says "homosexuality is a sin" would an outsider immediately assume catholics are homophobes? You're making a gross generalization when you speak for ALL of the "outsiders" in the world. The only reason...

Indeed. I can't help but laugh at the people who are okay with practices like charging people for CLOTHING in a game, and other ridiculously moronic DLC nonsense that took 30 seconds for someone to make. You're nothing more than a wallet to big companies like this. Thus the reason you see...

And thus we see the reason that Sony got rid of BC... Makes it harder to re-sell the "enhanced" editions of the games if people can just play the PS2 version with auto-upscaling (and auto-upscaling can do an EXCELLENT job on its own of enhancing the resolution, even without hi-res textures -...

Let me ask you something. Why do companies pursue legal action against the people who host ROMs for older systems, which are no longer manufactured? If you paid for the game and still have it, but can't obtain a working system on which to play said game, is it wrong for you to download a ROM...

Actually that's a legitimate complaint. The media companies claim that you are buying the right to view the IP, NOT the actual media. But when they RE-CHARGE you for an upscaled version of IP you've already paid to watch, this raises some issues over whether they're able to legitimately say...

Perhaps, but once again this comes back to the point that they should be providing a HUGE discount for people who've already purchased the PS2 versions. (As in, I should only have to pay 10 bucks for an upscaled version of two games that I've already paid for).
