I don't care if you call me a retard, but posting a picture of a special kid to call me a retard is sad. You are an asshole. You should be a better person being a father. I feel sorry for your daughter.GunSlinger OIF II wrote:

Well, one could argue that having a world government would simplify commerce the most possible. Would you like a one world government?GunSlinger OIF II wrote:

Independence is in the eye of the beholder. I just prefer that whatever government I'm under is as small as is possible.
By the way, empires don't last either... ours is crumbling as we speak.

thats the sad truth, and until you could power this county's infrastructure and energy needs with good intentions, we are stuck.Spearhead wrote:

Fair enough... I can accept that argument as bleakly realistic, but it also means we need to stop pretending that we intervene in world affairs for moral reasons. We need to own up to the fact that we are in this for business reasons and for the purpose of limiting the influence of China and Russia.GunSlinger OIF II wrote:

No, it's better to call a person a retard for nothing like you do or posting a picture of a special kid. You are disguting man. I'm sure tons of people will see you as an asshole.GunSlinger OIF II wrote:

Nope, and I think you and I are against it for the same reasons: too much power consolidated into one government and too much cultural conflict would result.GunSlinger OIF II wrote:

My argument is that our own government has reached a size beyond what our people can handle. There is too much power consolidated in D.C., and the culture of Idaho is considerably different from that of New York. We may act as one nation militarily, but culturally, we are various nations.
Whatever.GunSlinger OIF II wrote:

I don't think so. It's not that different. It's not like in some other countries ie: Russia where it's different ethnic groups with totally different languages/customs/religions etc..Turquoise wrote:

In theory, yes. I would prefer as secular of a government as possible, but technically, the separation of church and state applies only to federal government. State and local governments can technically be as religious as they want to be.Bertster7 wrote:

Granted, if I lived in Boston, I'd be pretty pissed at these teachers.
That's like calling an Indian a Pakistani, or a Welshman a Scot, or a Scotsman an Englishman. Or calling a Scotsman a Scotsman. You just can't do it man. You just can't do it.sergeriver wrote:

Good point. The variance between New York and Idaho is considerably less than what you mentioned, but I also think geography plays a part here. Look at how huge America is in terms of land area. It's very difficult for one government to properly administer to the needs of so many people over so much distance.Mek-Izzle wrote:

Still, I suppose you and GS are right. I'm kind of beating a dead horse with this one.
@GS & Serge: Take a break guys, you love to insult each other but learn to draw the line at unnecessary badmouthing ...

That's a disgrace loophole allowing for all sorts of officially sanctioned religious nonsense that is totally against the spirit of the whole notion of separating church and state (when I say state I mean it in it's proper sense, nation states).
