I get your point about morals from someone else. Although some are just learnt behaviour. Caveman "I will not hit Ug and steal his woman because Ug will hit me back and steal mine and he is bigger than me". "I will not hit Uh and steal his woman because then he will not hunt with me and he runs fast and tracks well." Then we have a collective morality or ethics. Universal suffrage was not one persons or even one groups idea. It was a consensus of like minded people with different views but with a common aim, who got together to ilicite change. Just like Ug and Uh people saw the merits in deciding their own govt. (although the jurys still out on their current choice). Morals and ethics change with time. Thats why you have institutions like the supreme court. It may view that abortion is unconstitutional one year. Then reverse its decision later as in Roe vs Wade. Then back again as may happen soon. (it is a little known fact that Wade herself has changed her mind and regrets her earlier decision). Then we have the cases where there are no rules. eg. Your know friends partner is cheating. Do you tell them? You can say "I would want to know (or not)" but you are not them so the golden rule does not apply here. Our morals may seem on the face of it "top down" but upon examination more a crystallization of "bottom up" thinking. The bible recommends stoning someone who wears cloths of a different weave. It is us not the bible who says that this is wrong.

@Pedrohbds The first part of your comment is almost de facto the case. Over 1% of the US population is under lock and key and felons are disenfranchised upon release. Would it not be ethically more efficient to implement a final solution? Human rights are unalienable therefore a moral rather than (in your definition) an ethical concept..As is a written constitution. If as you claim we act in our own long term interests by only adopting laws and rules that limit freedoms that will benefit us all as a whole? How do explain the abolition of slavery in the UK and empire in the 1830s? As the 1st major power to do this (a generation before the land of the free). This was not in our best interests economically, far from it. Yet moral arguments thankfully won the day. Lincoln of course had a war to win and therefore other justifications.

If the lumberjack repeatedly fells trees on top of people however innocently. The state would have a duty to revoke his logging license. Just as if you were to continue to have car accidents due to errors in judgement. It would make no difference how many miles that you drove without incident. The state would curtail your right to drive. If the state kills 200 guilty people but also 3 innocent ones. Then it too must have its 00 status removed, As it no longer can be trusted with a licence to kill

Funny that you should mention that case. I listened to a radio documentary about the capital punishment debate and one of the guys on it had lost a daughter in that bombing. Now before it happened he was pro-death penalty but his daughter was not. When she killed he decided to go anti in her memory. Thinking that she would not want another life taken on her account. The victims families were split into pro and anti. With often quite vernment arguments between the two camps. The pro`s thinking that it might give them some closure. It did not. Also from what I know of the case. There are some reservations on the idea that he acted alone. If he in fact did not act alone? Then one possible line of inquiry is most certainly closed forever.

If you walk in the woods and a tree falls on you? That is for want of a better term an act of god. If that tree was cut by a lumberjack at the time? That is an act of negligence. If it was willful and easily prevented then its criminal negligence or manslaughter. If it was deliberate then its murder. If the state kills an innocent person but then says sorry but we thought that they deserved it at the time? How can it justify punishing other murderers? "Hey I only killed one guy and he was a gang banger. Youve killed 5 innocent guys in the last 2 years" The difference between prison and a death sentence is you can release an innocent person from jail and although they will never get that time back. They can be monetarily compensated and they get to live the rest of their lives in freedom. You cannot un-inject a corpse.

I believe that if the people that defend him actually paid attention they'd be just as much against him as I am, but they spend all their time telling all the rest of us to listen to them. They refuse to listen to him much less us. They've been preprogrammed to believe that anyone not in their party...

This is the crux of the argument. From your stance Trump has not or could not ever do right. Neither could anyone ever support any of his actions without being "the enemy". Similarly from the other side anyone who opposes Trump is also "the enemy". Both positions have a tendency towards chauvinism. Which may I say is cultivated by the 45th himself. The polarization of america is exactly what he wants. He is a sound bite terrorist who throws bombs into the crowd and then waits for the reactionists to man the barricades. With each relative entrenchment of positions his becomes more secure.

@Wurlitzer It is the stealthy colonization of the world by Scotland. Small areas turned into gorse and heather throughout the globe. From what I gather "snooker" was once an element of golf. You could play your ball in front of your opponent and force him to play around or over it.

@TheDoubter Many of those statues (so I have heard) were put up late in the 20th century and are seen as a symbol of continuing oppression. If everything in the garden was rosey? Black voters were not being disenfranchised etc. Then it might not be such an issue. There is a big difference between someone like Nelson or Gladstone (both of which have statues in the UK that some are campaigning to be taken down) that were racist but thats not what they were famous for and someone who was only famous for fighting to keep people as slaves. You can have a statue of Wagner because of his music, whilst detesting his politics. It is another thing to have a statue of Hitler.

@Wellspring It is a very scary thing to see the collapse of a currency. I recall Alistair Cooke who was in Germany during the weimar republic. "If you went to a restaurant and ordered a meat dish they would not sit you by the window because someone would look in and press their nose against the glass. Then others would do so and eventually there would be a crowd which would lead to a riot" Zimbabwe missed a trick in stabilizing its currency. At one point the magnesium strip in the notes was worth more than its face value. People were tearing out the strips and taking them to scrap yards. So the govt. stopped putting the strips in. Had they left it alone then it might have halted the hyper-inflation? There are all kinds of safeguards surrounding paper currency, govt bonds etc.but these are dependent on a continuing ability to keep paying the interest on loans. As the US debt keeps rising, the money to service this debt will increasingly cut into the budget. Not too bad atm when interest rates are globally low but you cannot guarantee that that will continue. Then again political events may upset the apple cart. For example if Saudi had an islamic take over or if relations with China became hostile. It only takes one major creditor to call in your markers and the whole deck of cards will come crashing down. Then you will be looking at a $1,000 hamburger. Some say the real reason for the Iraq war was that Sadam insisted on Euros not petro-dollars for his oil.

There is a university campus in the UK where they vandalised a mural of Kiplings "If". On the grounds that he was racist and pro-empire. Well duh. he was a product of his age. Not only that but for his time he was very progressive* and guess what? Nearly all the brown skin Indians were pro-empire too at the time. You might as well condemn Shakespeare for being anti-semitic (which he was). Again what does it serve? "If" is a great poem, if not the greatest. There are rules to live by that anyone can admire. Whatever their creed or culture. Btw Mowgli was Indian in "the jungle book" not like Tarzan who becomes king of the jungle when theres all those black guys around for ages. Just because hes the son of an English lord. * This is the end of one poem. This type of thinking could still get you thrown out of a Trump rally for being too liberal. Oh, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet, Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God's great Judgment Seat; But there is neither East nor West, Border, nor Breed, nor Birth, When two strong men stand face to face though they come from the ends of the earth!

@Wellspring From what I understand the american education system is not even good at training people for jobs. The US military is finding it difficult to find NCOs who are literate. All successful countries like Germany, Japan and China have good education. Its not that all the money goes on elections. Its the fact that you cannot get elected without it. Therefore you are already in debt to that money before you take office. So no matter who gets in big money owns them. As for the fall of empire. Having lived through the end days of the biggest. I can tell you its not just about currency but trust. He is a story from the raj. A captain was in the mess at Calcutta when a follow officer comes in and says "I just had to pay £20 for this in the bazaar" then hands him a worn out piece of paper, On it in faded writing was the captains signature bellow a promissory note. The captain had written this 6 months previously on the north west frontier to buy horses for his men. The note had then travelled the length of the subcontinent as currency. Solely backed by the word of a British officer.

@Wellspring Okay what the bible says and what mainstream christian ideology says is not the same thing. Sex outside of marriage has been a no-no in all christian teachings for hundreds of years. Even the Mormons official church does not condone polygamy anymore. Marriage is the union one man and one woman FORSAKING ALL OTHERS till death do us part. The very family values that they purport to uphold, has been flouted by this guy on numerous occasions. This is not like G. W. who said "I was a drunk and I did stupid things that I now regret. I have been sober now for many years and have tried to live my life better". This guy says "Oh boys will be boys and it was just locker room talk". No regrets or repentance offered. Not a great example for any christian.

What could you do with all that money poured in elections if is it was steered towards education. "These text books were donated by the campaign to elect John Doe" You seem to think this is a problem created by one party or administration, it is not. It has been systemic since 1945 and only growing larger. I will give you case in point. Atm there is only one free boxing gym in the whole of NY. It is run by 2 ex cops who struggle to get the $50.000 a year to keep it open. How many kids might have been saved had there been more? How much has that cost NY in the long run? How short sighted is the boxing industry by not funding this? Yet I bet you any money you like that the guys who run the fights donate to a political candidate.

Plus the victims lived to tell the tale. Albeit behind greater security. If it had been in your country the thieves would most definitely been armed and who knows what might have happened? Btw neither of the victims had any desire to buy a gun afterward.

The USA is paranoid about communism and has been since the 1920s This has been the excuse for large arms spending which has left you bankrupt (. http://www.usdebtclock.org/ ) Inc. wars in Vietnam and Korea not to mention interventions in Chilli etc. The truth is america has always had the least to fear from communism of any western nation. It is built not on gods laws but on capitalism. My comment was just an illustration of how social intervention can by more cost effective in the long term. That has to make sense in dollars and cents. If a fraction of the money put into the war on drugs was put into education, housing and rehab programs. Then you would not have to spend all that money locking people up

Seems like every month theres another nutcase (real ones not just Fox news opinions) gunning down your population because you guys wont put a limit on who can own a killing toy. Btw the right to life comes before liberty. You cant be free if youre dead. In England you dont need a gun because very few people own one. Laws are strict and sentences severe on possession. Consequently only high level drug dealers have them and tend to just use them on rivals. Therefore all that I have ever needed to defend myself is my 2 fists and good manners. I could buy a gun if I wanted to. It would not be legal but neither is the pot I smoke. Do I want one? no. Do I need one? no.

Here is a case a customer told me of. A norwegian guy stopped paying his electric bill. Now in most countries he would have simply been cut off but they looked into his account. He had always payed his bills on time before so what had changed? So they sent out someone to see him. It seems that his wife had left him, he was drinking heavily and had lost his job. So social workers were allocated and with some help they sorted him out and got him a live-in job on the railways. Now that guy is a productive and contributing member of society. Before you dismiss that level of care as authoritarian. Remember that the US of A has over 1% of its population in jail. That is more than any other country in the western world.

The problem has been that we have had a narrowly defined parameter of allowable debate. The rise of the right in both the US, Europe and the UK has a least widened those boundaries. I cannot speak for the US so I will concentrate on the UK. Two years ago we had a referendum on brexit. One of the ...

@Trajan61 Or guys who use family connections to get a safe place in the national guard (G. W.) Then send everyone off to war on a lie. Those that would dodge the draft then mock a veteran because he had the misfortune to be shot down and captured. Even a grieving mother because she happens to be muslim? Just saying

CongratsI doubt if I will make it before xmas. I wonder what Im doing wrong, always on here comment a lot and post the odd thing hey ho.

@psycheworks I dont do that many posts, only when I have something to say. I do comment a lot but I will not be a points whore by posting "good morning" etc just to get get them. Not that you do that but as I am following your posts there does not seem to be that many either? I suppose I should just carry on and be patient. Only 6,500 to go
Hyothetically: Would you move to a place that you find too cold to live close to someone you love?
273kelvin comments on Nov 9, 2018:
I do hope this is really just hypothetical. If not ARE YOU NUTS ffs! Its one thing to move somewhere nice, for work or if youre getting together because you love each other etc. but on the off chance that they MIGHT settle down with you is just plain stupid

@alanalorie It would be really dumb human behaviour to relocate on the off chance It would make more sense if you just liked the local pizza parlor but not much. If the person in question said "I love you. I cannot live without you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you". That would be a hard decision in itself. But to move somewhere so be just one of many. With the distinct possibility of being left alone with no friends, family or support in a strange town. Does seem to be a no-brainer. That being said, if you want to move to Liverpool? I would forsake all others.
A question for my American cousins.

The 'bible belt' is basically Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina, with pockets of evangelicals elsewhere. The people of this region have been conditioned to think that they can be as sinful as they want, so long as they go to church twice on Sunday, and once on Wednesday.And they will...

Pardon me but I seem to recall an answer to someones previous post. Stating that the bible belt was basically anywhere outside of a metropolitan area. How accurate is that?
I know there's a story in this pic... if only I had more clues.

There's a story here alright! And with only these few clues there could be several stories that fit the findings..

@Lukian Dont spoil the fun
Guys, Am not sure about you, but for me, my GF seems insatiable at times and this leaves me ...

A nice problem to have some might think but not all partners share the same sex drive. If it is a question of performance then the blue pill can go a long, long way to alleviate that. Even if not needed for the initial bout, it does make you stay hard for hours. Failing that you always have a tongue...

@Charity Oh if distance was not such a barrier. (I am an harmonica player and that skill is transferable). Seriously though there are techniques that can help with even short tongues and large women. Such as placing a pillow underneath the bum to raise the pelvis. Also a vibrator is useful. I have one and have no problem using it as an aid. Soreness does not seem to be an issue here as well, so the sensitivity side might be okay
