johnnyrodgers20 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 JR...I think a significant part of the problem is that you come off as very "derpy" and it annoys people greatly For example how you use emoticons in virtually every post....and usually the most obnoxious ones available. It's this type of stuff that drives people away or prevents others from participating. Sort of like how "Jimmy Justice" may not be doing anything technically wrong...but he's still so polarizing and obnoxious that he turns people off in a great way. This may come off to you as insulting, etc...but it shouldn't. At least it's something that you can control. http://www.colbertna...--jimmy-justice Difference Makers - Jimmy Justice When the police fall down on the job, Jimmy Justice stands up for New Yorkers by making gotcha videos of NYPD officers. That just sounds like your wise ass schtick you've always done!! you were a turd that did nothing but derp on HP and I found you haven't changed since coming over here!! Link to comment

Cactusboy Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Stay classy OWS. http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2011/11/...n-wall-street/ I didn't see anything in the video that was bad. No yelling at kids. Just saw some parents complaining. WHo knows why the one guy was following the dad w/ his kid...or what he was saying...OR what was said back to him before or during the video. Looks like a manufactured story as of now. Link to comment
Sub-Husker Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Do you see the problems with claiming "moral absolutes?" By definition they CANNOT be moral absolutes if there are exceptions. An absolute: All humans either have died, or will die... no exceptions. Link to comment
carlfense Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 That's not a moral absolute . . . Do you see the problems with claiming "moral absolutes?"

Unless you look at it from a religious perspective, where certain beliefs/moralities do not believe that a few specified humans have died. Link to comment
It'sNotAFakeID Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Are religion and morality one in the same thing? Work has been down to support that a lot of morals really just come from random noise [non-cultural, non-heritable] Link to comment

Work has been down to support that a lot of morals really just come from random noise [non-cultural, non-heritable] Many people draw their moral absolutes from the religious dogma fed them. He is saying in a round about way some people believe that Jesus rose again and he and some others never truly died. Yep. Which is trying to prove what, exactly? That there are no real world moral absolutes? If so, I agree. Some scientific principals are absolutes... when applied to specific cases. Link to comment
carlfense Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Some scientific principals are absolutes... when applied to specific cases. No doubt . . . but we were talking moral absolutes. I would argue that these are different things. Link to comment
