There is physical evidence that air exists. There is physical evidence that radio waves and wifi exists. You can see them using technology. I can't believe you just compared physical things to conspiracy theories. That proves how little you actually know. Also, public schools are funded by taxes from the city they're in. The richer the city means the more taxes, meaning the more money gets spent on schools. It has very little to do with politicians.

Thus there is evidence that air exists due to deductive reasoning. :P

I have one more.

Stupid, moronic, entitled, imbecilic, people who believe in our education system, believe religion helps others, loves ads, extorts others while studying law, sending brave soldiers into combat to see horrors beyond their imagination because they studied law, watch Fox news, Play AA3, practice social bigotry while listing to rap remixes of country music while celebrating the class system that does indeed exist, who cancel good shows like Firefly, have small dogs and cats, who shop at Walmart and have more money than me, enjoy high gas prices, can't spell imbeciles correctly, makes sure things are made in China, support PITA and praise the idea that Twilight is anything short of verbal vomit, watch ghost documentaries, and ensure that decently-priced items come from China. Oh yeah, and that asshole that tangles up your headphone wires when you're not looking and gets them caught under your chair wheel.

Let's turn the discussion back around then. What are the problems in the US? Everybody list them one by one to see if we agree on a few things.

Can't resist.

In general: priorities, educational system, extortion, politics, tolerance, religion, social bigotry and all other forms of bigotry, the class system that does indeed exist, entitled people, stupid people, stupid people making all the decisions, law, studying law, sending brave soldiers into combat to see horrors beyond their imagination because you studied law, country music, rap music, the fact that Firefly was canceled, anything made in China, Walmart, people of Walmart, morons, imbiciles, people who can't spell imbeciles correctly, PITA, Twilight, politicians, ghost documentaries, Fox News, small dogs, cats and cat-like women, gas prices, ads, America's Army 3, and people who have more money than me. :)

Yeah. They're probably aliens from outer space too. They use their superior mid controlling technology to control the masses and the only way to see through it is to do drugs.

I can basically sum this up as "You're crazy, therefore I'm correct." Even if you are correct, trying to make an ass out of someone isn't going to prove your point. In addition, not everything Grapes has said was necessarily wrong, it just wasn't presented well. There are problems in the US, but the real debate should be about how bad it really is. He can say it's shit all he want's, but he doesn't know what shit is.

theres only 1, if u belive why don't u give a chance to ur self, yeah, to ur self, because you without  are nothing, but God without you its still God.

he created us all free, he has power to control us, but hes not an invasor, hes at ur heart door, but u need to open, so he can enter.

Don't tell me that's the kind of poetic crap that fooled you into believing without evidence. And don't think I'll let that hint at Pascal's Wager slip by.

following God commandments its not = following religios rules.
God him self can teach u, talk to u, its up to u to hear him, to stop and look around to see what hes saying to u, to let him guide ur life, religion doesn't save anyone, theres no error under God guidance, ONLY Jesus save.

if you thing that to be with God u have to blindly follow a religion, then ur wasted. that's what I call ignorence :D

If only we could see the world like you do. May we have some fries with this Mind-projection fallacy? You certainly aren't fooling me.

I know, and the same thing applies for these conspiracy theories. Nobody can show me any proof they are real, yet they act as if they are. Same situation, different subject.

Correct, but as soon as you employ fallacies yourself, you lose the high ground.

I choose to believe in thing that are backed by facts, things that have been proven right. If you want to believe in made up things that may or may not be true then go ahead, but that's not a healthy way to live. I can't prove that there isn't an invisible pink pony following me around everywhere, so should I start telling everyone that it's real? No, because it defies common sense, and so does a lot of the crazy theories in this thread. If there isn't any facts to back it up, it's a waste of time and not worth believing in.

Well, yes, the default position in any argument in which a claim is made is not to believe it until it is proven. Just try and argue that with any Christian and out comes special pleading, strawmanning, and pretty much every fallacy they can get their hands on.

I second this! Seriously. If people need hope that bad and see hope in stained glass or burned toast then they need help. You can live life and do good without following god's or jesus' laws. You don't have to be religious to be a good person. Religion has stunted humanity.

Religion isn't about hope, it's about having an excuse. It's about not being responsible for your actions. It's a fairytale for grown-ups. If you have to fear Hell for sinning and be promised Heaven for having faith in order to do what you think is right, then your morals are fucked. Spreading nice lies don't make lies the truth. I could go on for days about religion.

No, it's wrong because it isn't based on facts. Any assumption not based on facts is useless. Nothing Grapes and Archi have been saying has any hint of truth to it or facts to back it up, yet they act as though it does.

And if simply pointing out someone was wrong made you right, we'd have politicians that prepare for their careers by studying law--wait a minute...People who practice how to bullshit other people in matters over their heads are in. It's not what you see, it's what you don't.

The argument has already passed the peak of the bell curve. We're in the steady decline and soon nobody will be responding and AAO25 will go back to being slow and boring for 2 weeks until somebody else stirs up some shit. Maybe I'll ban a random user, who knows.

Ha!

SIGN ME UP!

MothaGoosE, this is a wild discussion with a lot of opinions. I think it's a good discussion because at least it gets ideas flowing and gets people thinking, right or wrong. I think the moral of this discussion is that there's so much shit fucked up in the country and the world that it's probably best to just ignore it all and live your life how you want as things will go to hell likely after you die so what does it matter anyway.

Understood, however if the argument degrades into argument by verbosity and from ignorance, it's just going to turn into who can fling the most shit the farthest. True arguments are a learning experience for all parties involved.

So does anyone have any solutions, or are we all here to bitch about stupid bullshit? No one here is going to change anything. Opinions based on nothing are irrelevant. I recommend some of you do some research on what logical fallacies are, because this thread is full of them. There's some fucked up shit here, yes, but there is everywhere else too. A lot of it is worse.

BTW: Happy not-living-in-Afghanistan.
