The funniest part about this is XCeltdick is under the delusion that only 2 or 3 people on this forum are flaming him when in reality it is almost everyone.
A majority of the people responding to this thread are calling out his feeble attempts at reasoning and logic. Then he agressively defends himself on a subject he knows nothing about and even looks more the fool. The most ridiculous part is how f*cknut has a reply for every single post on this thread so he can defend his ever-moving positions.

The really sad part is that you don’t even see it. That is what we call stump chopping stupid around these parts.
Isn’t it swell? Puts me in mind of that Monty Phython skit where two knights do battle and one is reduced to a basket case, as with each limb lost he’s still hollering the victor never laid a glove on him, come back and fight like a man, etc.
Oh, I think he sees alright. I’m gonna go lift.[/quote]

Keep going that direction, and you’ll see that even the soldiers may be innocent. After all, most of them are conscripts.

No, actually not at all. The soldiers ARE the ones who killed our guys as well as committed the atrocities that have already been mentioned. They are ALOT let innocent then the civilians.
Really, so if we were in a global war and someone dropped bombs on say Chicago, killing thousands, their innocence wouldn’t matter? No sir, I think it would matter ALOT even to you.
Putting your paragraph together, I get this:
“The government is sending us BS through the TV saying that people should care about innocence.”
Wooooooooow… Need I say more?

It’s BS with a purpose, too. The purpose is to convince you that war is not so bad, after all: we have wonderful technology and we will avoid killing innocent civilians.
When you grasp the idea that in war innocence doesn’t matter as to who gets killed, you will be on your way to understanding why war is such a terrible thing.[/quote]
Actually if you would have read my posts instead of acting like you did you would know that I’m very opposed to war, especially the one we’re in.
Either way, you saying that innocence doesn’t matter completely contradicts you saying that war is such a terrible thing that should never take place. If you think war shouldn’t happen because so many people will be killed who don’t need to die, you think innocence DOES matter.

No, the really sad part is that you keep saying things like this without reference to where they actually happened, or a quote for example. And apparently you missed the part where I said they WERE right about the bombs and WW2, oh and I mean the people who actually gave some useful info in their posts as opposed to wasting space(You).

If that is what you really think you should hold yourself in very low opinion, maybe worse than me, for taking the time to aggressively respond to my posts, rapeman.
Xcel, you must have hugely developed fingers with all the typing you do. Actually, your arms should also be bigger from punching yourself in the face so much. Think what would happen if you put that amount of effort into the gym.

Nope. Innocence is not relevant even here. In fact, after the war you prosit, if anyone is left, everybody will be declared to have been innocent, except for a few guys they will subsequently round up and try for being war criminals.
Why don’t you share your SAT score, or maybe your GPA. If you’re gonna throw around insults, back it up.

SAT and GPA mean very little in the grand scheme of things. for example, being from canada i am not really familiar with the whole SAT preparation that american kids go through in highschool…however, receiving numerous scholarship offers to play ball south of the border made taking the SAT’s a necessity…1250 without even cracking a book. in all honesty…anyone who has the ability of cognitive thought can do reasonably well on that farce of an exam.
if you must know, I hold a degree in civil engineering, a degree in environmental engineering, a minor in biology and a minor in chemistry. i hardly believe that someone your age and of your obvious lack of true ability to learn and comprehend subject matter like you are debating would “own me without trying” with virtually any matter related to science. besides, there truly are no definitive answers when speaking on dna, genes and evolution since it is an ever evolving science. in all fairness, the only people who could truly have an accurate debate on that subject matter would be those working in that particular field, or someone with a Phd related to the material. keep regurgitating text book info.
the know-it-allness you have been accused of stems from your attitude and the tone of your posts…plain and simple. its a shame that you are blindly ignorant to that fact.
Point is that the U.S. is not going to be the biggest kid on the block pretty soon. There are real threats out there and we need to increase the spending on our military to develop better technology and training.
China may not be a serious threat now but in ten, twenty years or so, watch out. However, to combat this growing menace in the east we need to act now and be prepared to keep the balance of power. But if we do what celtic wants, the shit will hit the fan and when it does…maybe Mr. Celtic will even get his butt drafted, now there would be irony. [/quote]
The problem with China is that you could kill one million people a day and never run out of people. This has been their strategy forever.

(I’d make a contribution to this thread by tossing in my two cents, but then I thought…why?)
XCel, nice post about people in the military wasting our lives. It’s really appreciated to hear such selfless devotion to one’s country, especially from somebody who’s biggest contribution to society up to this point probably consists of putting a quarter in a salvation army christmas bucket. Ignorant pricks like you are the reason everyone’s so fucking scared of this generation taking over the reigns of this country.
It makes me sick to think that people believe my generation consists of jackasses such as yourself. You might try directing your bleeding heart towards the horrible shit that’s going on in the world Right Now instead of something that happened 60 years ago and can’t be changed, no matter how many “uh oh, look what you did” fuckheads want it to be.

Well we have something in common. I have a BS in civil engineering and an MS in environmental engineering.

Hah I’d be overtrained, sick, and weakly.
I see your point though, and I’m already doing alot in the gym, just trying not to do too much.

Good job, that’s a decent score. I never cracked a book or studied for the SAT either, just to let you know.
Congrats, I’m glad to hear you are well educated.

I was only letting you know that the subject we were talking about(apes, evolution, human behavior and aggression, etc) IS something I know about. I didn’t say I know it all, but I know about it, and no one here gave any evidence refuting the facts I gave, especially not you.
I didn’t learn that in a text book. I would find it shocking if that information was in a textbook in the public school system.
However, if you want to educate yourself in that area, try reading “Demonic Males”. It lays out the basics of what I’m talking about, and was written by Dr. Wrangham, a professor of Anthropology at Harvard.
I agree, I’m not blindly ignorant to that fact. I am a bit arrogant, and it shows in my attitude. Don’t mistake that for me thinking I know it all, or me not listening. I enjoy being corrected as much as I enjoy correcting others, as it is a learning experience.

HEY GENIUS! I don’t know how many of you idiots I have to correct before you learn to READ.

Here’s a post I made earlier. Next time before you jump the gun and start accusing me of such ridiculous things, try reading, we all learned how to do it in kindergarten:
I totally respect wanting to serve your country. I have nothing against that, unless you think that what the Commander in Chief is doing is wrong. I would not fight a war I didn’t believe in.
I’ve read from numerous sources that over 5,000 Iraqi and Afghani civilians have been killed by American bombs during this War on Terror. That’s more dead innocent people than died on 9-11. It appears we responded to terrorism with more terrorism… after all, we lost less innocent people than they did.
I don’t even care if they were all complete accidents, not one of the deaths of civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan was necissary.
