You don't have to be a teenager to spout teenage nonsense, it's a special kind of self important tripe that transcends the period in life it's named after.

As you're amply demonstrating.

I do not see myself as anymore important than anyone else, I also believe that there always someone smarter than you( by you I mean me, you ,everyone).Maybe I should have chose my words more carefully , people are not stupid they are ignorant. We’ve lost the ability to think for ourselves; therefore it makes people look stupid.

I think people over 60 should only be allowed on the roads between 10am and 4pm and then 8pm until 12am.

That way, the weekday Sunday drivers can naff off and let us get to and from work in good time.

I also think it should be mandatory that children get the school buses instead of the "yummy" mummy brigade causing gridlock in their badly parked/badly driven 4x4 mobiles. :mad:

Calling people "ignorant" because you've witnessed some minor brainfarts is so amazingly shitty I am actually lost for words.
You're being amazingly fucking condescending, please grow up.

In fairness, the average Joe is fairly stupid.
Just listen to any phone show, read any rag, chat to the general population.
They may well be highly skilled in sports, music, art, general knowledge, maths etc...
But the general population seem to be severely lacking in critical thinking.

Sure, well when you've managed to go your entire life without fucking up once, maybe your opinions will be valid.

But seeing as you've already shit over the chances of that happening with your last few posts I'll just settle for cataloguing your opinions under "obnoxious bullshit" where they rightfully belong.

You too, flutterflye.

Not on par with the more common themes on this thread but still the amount of people I know who follow this stuff religiously.

I think homeopathy, holistic therapy, energy healing, angel cards, reiki, and all that gobble-dee-gook alternative medicine is one of the biggest over-priced cons out there and should be nowhere near a pharmacy.

My gf went to an angel card reading and was told our unborn daughter (:eek:) was acting like a gaurdian angel guiding her and my life, which thanks to this mystical spirit, I landed my new job.

Oh yes, nothing to do at all with my certs, experience, and hardship that I've worked on and endured for the past 9 years.

• I believe that laws restricting polygamy and incest have no place in a liberated society founded on equality.
• I believe that Communism had many noble aims, but that its main proponents are only out-done in the stupid stakes by its main opponents.
• In favour of euthanasia and abortion. Human life is only precious for those who are in a position to enjoy it.
• I believe that the possibility that some races of human beings are athletically or intellectually more gifted than others is quite plausible in itself.
• I think that too many people shy away from examining the role of genetics in shaping how societies or individuals within societies fail or succeed.
• Nationalism is the single most stupid political theory for which any man has ever shed blood.
• I don't blame the banks.

No law restricting incest?

Using the principle that only consenting adults get to decide what they do in the bedroom.

What principle do you use to justify maintaining its illegal status?

But incest often involves children and children aren't adults, consenting or otherwise.

Deformities of genes would be a biggy there.

AhSureTisGrand

On the subject of incest, are there any laws preventing the creation of inbred children? What with IVF and stuff, these days you can have inbreeding without incest

He means only adults - should go without saying.
It's not ideal, but it happens occasionally. I wouldn't agree with procreation in such circumstances though.

i don't know that it being illegal would stop many people from doing it anyway.

So does sex. Do you think we ought to ban sex?

The interpretation you refer to is not the actual meaning of incest.

That's far from being established in scientific fact,although admittedly there are potential hazards.

But we don't stop carriers of Cystic Fibrosis genes from 'breeding' in case they copulate with other carriers, so I don't see why it ought to be different with other heterozygous allele holders.

That's an interesting point re cystic fibrosis, and other such disorders.
Maybe they should be stopped from breeding too, because it isn't too dissimilar to incest in regards to gene deformities.

But there again where does it stop? Where is the line drawn on what constitutes a ban on procreation.
Hmmm...
Interesting though.

I'm not saying I believe this btw - I have just thought of it now for the first time, so can't really have an opinion on it either way yet.

My interpretation is that it's sex between close family members, which may or may not involve children?

Is that yours?

No more than my understanding of sex is that it may or may not include children.

There's no reason to assume that when someone mentions sex, they mean sex with children. It's the same for incest.

I hope that clears it up.

Ireland 's corporation tax rate could be raised by two or three percentage points without the sky falling in and would go a long way towards addressing the defecit.

In fact there should ideally be (shock horror) a harmonised rate across the EU but with the possibility for peripheral and/or less developed regions/countries to be allowed to make the case for some flexibility to set a slightly lower rate reviewed every six years or so.

One unpopular opinion someone i know has concerns statutory rape. He doesnt believe you can take the power of mature consent away from all people under 17/18 as some people are mature enough at 14 maturely consent i.e. There cant be automatic punishment if a 20 year old has sex with a 14 year old. This opinion, when expressed on a message board, was not seconded and doubts about the opinion holders good character were raised as it was thrashed out. There *may* be something to it, but i'd more listen to rather than support this opinion.

*Polish women are totally overrated. They are very similar looking to Irish women just with much fitter bodies.

*Being Eastern European does not automatically mean being Polish, even though most people are lazy and pigeon hole every EE as being from Poland. When you see a stunning looking Eastern European girl they are usually either Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, Lithuanian, Estonian etc and not Polish

While the quality of Irish education is (contrary to popular misconception) generally pretty poor and radical reforms are decades overdue, the points system is actually a pretty equitable way to allocate third level places and the introduction of continous assesment for the leaving cert would create far more problems than it would solve.
