  1. Well, if no one voted him, then how come is he president? Uhmmm, errrr, Florida, ehem ehem, Jed Bush...
  2. Lazyness can be cured, but we are not talking about lazy people. Ignorance can be cured, but only if you have resources to do so. If you have to work your ass of just to eat, you have no time, money or will to study. If you really, really, really want, you wil have when you are 45 the knowledge of a 23 years old guy with resourceful parents. Then capitalism will prefer the 23 years old so we are again at the begining. Stupidity cannot be cured, and it is true that McDonalds is always recruiting. Can you live a happy and economicaly stable live working at McDonalds? I bet not. Too bad because that is the only job capitalism will let you have if you are stupid.
  3. Visualize a little fairy walking up to a man in robes and mortar board. waves wand. DING - you are now an expert. Work in the field for 10 years and then write me a response. you will feel differently Nothing wrong with studying a subject and speaking to it, but a piece of paper means nothing in any subject. I have a master's in nuclear engineering, doesn't mean I can build a power plant in my back yard. I think we all agree than someone whith a MAster degree usually have more knowledge about the subjet than just a student. And no doubt experience does wonders. But still you have not told us why being a student unqualifies me to speak about the subject i am studing. By the way, do you disagree with my previous statement about lack of character and having to join big groups?
  4. Of course being a student is nor a credential. as it is not a credential neither having a master degree over Internet (i get everyday spam about getting diplomas from not recogniced universities). However i don´t understand why for being a psicologist student i am often less qualified to speak about psicology than others. do you mind to explain? I agree with you that i could have left out the studying psicology part but since i was taking the piss asking him not to be Freud I though it was in order. In any case, i think i am right about the personality part. I don´t know why to talk bad about a country would make me have less personality (In case that i had done that). Usually people with low personality will join large groups to feel backed up by more people (often those persons have low self steem). That is how gangs work. I will post some links so you can read the same from someone who has already graduated when i find them. So far i get this information from text books. By the way, it is not the case, but i could very well be one week before graduating for finals in Spain are next week. So student can mean a lot of things.
  5. I don´t know if the second pic is a repost (the first surely is) but if H Goeing REALLY DID say that, it IS scary, don´t you think?
  6. The problem is, he is not american, lives and works in the US and has a profound interest in diminishing as well as insulting anything that has to do with the US. I consider that either lack of character, or just sucking up on a system to make his life better. MLK was an American, who cared for his country. Hardly his case I think the door hitting on his ass should apply. Dude, thank you for your psicology lesson, now, do yourself a favor and stop playing Freud. As a psicology college student i have been told that a lack of character is usually shown by the need to belong to a large group where your actions will be backed up (sounds familiar?). My opinions more often than not are supported for just a handful of other poster. Regarding that of sucking up on a system to make my life better... well, lets say that i am not one of those "charismatic" guys who get a hard on saying what a hot shit they are for being from such country. I don´t live in the US at the moment, but i have lived for a whole year and on and off the next five years after. I do know what to live like in the US is like. However i encourage you to find a post where i put down the US as a country or americans as a whole. In the other hand, you DO put down other countries (like South Africa) without probably spending much time there. That is not very smart. As a matter of fact, you can find posts where i disagree with spain´s position about a subject. I guess that i should leave Spain ASAP. I do have my biased believes about controversial subjects, but i only post what i can backup with facts (preferible) or common sense. However Internet is a free country and you can post what you want. so go back to informed and factual statements like: America is the greatest country in the world South Africa is a bad country. Santa Klaus exists and GWB is a very cultural and honest guy.
  7. That picture surely is a repost I am not sure wether you just want to ignore my post or you truly didn´t understand it, in case it is the last i will rephrase it. If you follow ALL the guidelines in the Bible. I respect you for you believes and willpower (i would still think you are way wrong though) If you disregard some of the law like forbidden animals, working on sabbath, etc you are giving your own interprtation of the bible, hence it is not the God´s word and therefore not a truism. You would just be using the bible to back up your personal and maybe flawed points of view.
  8. Bible? you mean that book who aparently was written 2000 years ago? Don´t you think it can be a bit old for this ages? I mean, acording to that book, i should have been stoned 3 times for 2 diferents reasons (that i know of, probably more) and kicked out several times from catholism. If you can honestly tell me that you haven´t ever broke any of the laws that the Bible talks about and gone without due punishment... i will shut the fuck up right now, if not, you will have to agree with me that your bible is a bit old and needs to be rewritten. As for the sociological and psicological consecuences of a child raised by two gays, i am sure it would be better if they were from diferent sex (hence not gays) but i am sure as well that it is better two parents (even gays) than only one, even if it is only for economical safety.
  9. Actually it doesn´t blow my theory to hell. Good for you and for pajarito for getting where you are. So i know now two guys that made it thru capitalism. I never said it was impossible, though. but for two that where successful there is hundreds that were not, and not due to lack of will. Let´s face it, if you work hard enough, and are married to someone who work hard enough and don´t have many kids it is unlikely that you will starve. But that is one thing and another completely diferent thing is to do well economicly. Sort of having two cars, or a nice big house, or a brand new rig when the older gets too old, etc. How many people are ruined because they didn´t have money to pay the doctors? that is where socialism should be. A state that provides with the minimum basics for human dignity (socialism). And if you want the extras (cars, rigs, nice house, etc) then you will have to work hard (capitalism).
  10. What does this expression mean? You are way out of touch with reality. The expression "socialism takes from me to give to the lazy" pretty much speaks for itself. I don´t know your background, but i doubt you come from a low income family. Capitalism works for you. And it works for me, and i am happy with that, but i admit that it doesn´t work for everybody. If you don´t have enough money for college because you barely make it thru the month to feed your family, capitalism does not works for you. I know of people who have two jobs and don´t make that much money, and they certainly work harder than most of the rest. Edited for spelling
  11. I have been living in the US and i can tell you that the US is not the greatest country in the world. As a matter of fact, Spain is not either. Neither the UK where i have also lived for a while. When i spend a fair amount of time in EVERY country on this planet, i will tell you IN MY OPINION which is the greates country. The rest is just cheap propaganda. About capitalism... Don´t get my wrong, i think capitalism is necessary to some extent. You need some way to reward the hard worker over the lazy scum. To not do so is an invitation to have a country full of lazy disatisfied people. However, i do think is necesary some form of socialism so everybody is given a fair chance to earn money by hard work. And a strictly capitalist society does not do that.
  12. That's so not right. Capitalism is a means of allocating resources. One of the odd facets of economic systems is that they grow. And the methods of allocating their products effects the rates at which they grow. In fact, over the long term, Capitalism is nice to poor people, because it's nice to everyone--it grows the total output more/faster. Ever tried to play monopoly having a tenth of the initial money than the rest of the players?
  13. If a SUV is a car, i don´t think that killed ALL the dinosaurs, but sure they are feeding nowadays like crazy on their long dead corpses. Kenedy do you know by chance what the lotto numbers will be in spain next week? (50% each)
  14. Guns are evil! Capitalism is mean to poor people! Humans are killing the Earth! SUVs killed the dinosaurs! any other bits of joy and wisdom you want to share with us? Guns are not evil, they are just a tool. That must be regulated by the way just in case evil people get hold of one of them. Capitalism IS mean to poor people. you see, in order for some people to be rich, there has to be poor people. If everyone can afford a Porsche, that brand will not be cool anymore. Humans ARE killing the earth. That hole in the ozone layer daesn´t mean anuthing good. I don´t know what a SUV is. By the way, this war IS about oil. And power, and ego, and a lot of thing, bur not about freedom or anything of the sort. If i come across any other FACTS I will share them with you.
  15. Better than being British! There's very little better than being British, and being American isn't one of them. Only being scottish, nothing beats the feeling of the rough kilt on a naked willy!!!
  16. First of all, know that i haven´t seen a dead body ever, and this is the first snuff movie i see. (and hopefully last). The video does look strange. I would think that a beheaded body would bleed a lot, and there is almost no blood on the movie. But i think that if Berg was already dead, since his heart would not be pumping there wouldn´t be mnuch blood coming out. That would explain it. Also, at some point he should have realized they were going to kill him. Why didn´t he struggle? he wasn´t pinned to the floor to the point that he couldn´t move at all. Not that it would have changed anything, but anyone would struggle when facing a violent death.
  17. I have always thought that the cruelest jokes are also the funniest. But, are you ready to laugh about yourself? (this is directed at everybody) I mean would you also laugh at a t-shirt with the four charred bodied of the US contractors if it sais something like that they try too get tanned too hard? or maybe a tshirt with the beheaded contractor and in the back a line that sais something like "don´t forget your head!!!". If you wouldn´t think that is funny, then humor is not involved.
  18. LOL. I have heard that Mr Aznar is already setting the tents.
  19. Doesn´t she have an evil look on the pic? She looks good though.
  20. I pretty much agree with your analisys. How can someone defend against terrorist willing (hoping for) to inmolate taking as many casualties as possible? But think how much safer would be the US (albeit not 100%) if all the troops in Irak would go back to the US (it wouldn´t be a retreat, just a tactical relocation of troops so no pride would be hurt) and dedicate his time to do background checks, protecting airports, train stations, etc. Edites for spelling.
  21. We have dropped 2 nukes in on cities. Why do you think that happened? And did it end the war? Pull the troops... BOOM.. Bye bye Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran.. Anyone else wants to be a bunch of fucking whining little children BOOM.. Tired of this shit.. Some drastic measures should be taken.. GLASS FUCKING PARKING LOT!!! They would do it to us if they had the chance... I'm so pissed off about that fucking video I can see red... Rhino This is not mean as a personal attack, but you are not very smart. Think it again. You nuke Syria, afganistan, irak, and whoever you want. You kill 99,99 of inocent muslims that don´t give a shit about al-quaeda.(the other 0.01 could be terrorist). Then the sleeping cell of al-quaeda who are living at the moment in Germany, or spain, or even the US get pissed and blow a dirty nuclear weapon on NY. Everybody in the world would think you deserve it. Are you afraid and you want to protect yourself. Protect your country, don´t invade other countries. It is that simple.
  22. Actually, when the abuse came out, some did blame "the US military" and "it went all the way to the top". When the beheading happened, some did blame the entire Muslim culture. The key word here is 'some'. There will always be knee jerk reactions and overly simplified reaction statements. Both positions are wrong and the individuals need to be captured and dealt with to avoid this ever happening. The only difference here is we are directly dealing with our problem people. I hope to hear the same from the Muslim community someday. Oh, and another difference is the severity of the actions of course. Beheading does not in any way = humiliation. Fair enough. I would agree with you, if it only was humilliation. Sticking a broomstick up someone´s ass is much more than just humilliation. Besides there has been deads due to torture among Irak´s files. To me it is the same to die beheaded or by someone steping on my neck.
  23. A school bus full of cheerleaders (over 18, just for the record) from a catholic University have an accident and four of them die. The show in front of Peter at heavens gates. Peter ask the first one wether she had any sexual relationship with a man. After confessing she had masturbated a friend she was told to was her hand in a fountain nearby. The second one had her breast rubbed by a friend so she was told to cleanse herself with the holy water of the nearby fountain. Suddenly the last one comes forward and yells, MY TURN MY TURN, so Peter ask her why so much haste so she replies. I better drink some holy water before you tell Ann to clean her ass.
  24. Yes, for a while i was toying with the idea to make a sect where everybody would adore me and give me money. But then I realized that some guy called Jesus and his pal Mahoma had the same idea some 2000 years ago.
  25. Don´t forget the inquisition, mate. They were VERY Christians...
