Michael Hardner Posted February 29 Report Share Posted February 29 If reading is tied to evolution, then it's really only about being able to absorb and critically consider ideas from diverse sources. So how is that different from being able to, say, listen to Socrates? Or watching manufacturing consent, the film? Or being on the internet, on Maple leaf Web?

I think that it means that any intelligent function, ability etc. is not a given, but a privilege and responsibility. One can always choose to abandon it; refuse and drop. And in that case, the result is no different from if it never existed. So, if one does not, and wouldn't think then the outcome will be the same as if the decisions were produced by a rock. Humanity saw it and tried it so many times, it's not even funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree for sure that we need to talk more about responsibility these days.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the multitude of problems caused by this left you speak of, the right must be responsible for these problems because they haven't eradicated them en masse .

So you stuff your fat face with cheeseburgers year after year and cause yourself to have a heart attack then that means McDonald's is responsible for it. Thanks for making my point. Edited February 29 by Yakuda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See you're trying to think again and that's where you get into trouble but your IQ is 65 Well you said that they are the enemy of responsibility. Sounds like they're all CRAZY!  Are you now trying to pull back from buffaloing on here and making simplistic blame songs?  If so, probably that's that.

Therefore, you can now slag Democrats as crazy leftists in threads that have nothing to do with the topic.  Yeah actually you really should move on... There's a 4chan thread somewhere.

You people have been telling anyone who'll listen that commies have infiltrated and taken over our governments at all levels. And not one of you have fired a single shot in defence of Canada. How asinine is that given we've shed blood on the other side of the planet to save people from the same fate? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
