That doesn't mean they are childish. lmao.


Hell all my freaking employees must be children. lol
Again, I'm not trying to call Mokk childish as he certainly is not. I am refering to his system of values. It the idea that I question.

Although in the case of your coworkers ... it might apply to them personally. :wink:

I got the impression you wanted to continue the discussion from the remark you made when I posted what was meant as a cease fire offer disguised as a joke picture. Humor is usually a good way to end a discussion turned sour, and I thought you were rejecting that offered end, thus I continued.

Not at all, i'dve been completely content providing my opinion and simply leaving it at that rather than feeling put on the defensive without actually inviting it through immature means, per usual. The humor wasen't lost on me, but again .. you're weird in this thread in comparison to the other times we've gone rounds on this subject it seemed more off color than a humorous jab at the time.

You know that answering the question puts you in the same boat as Mokk.

Exaclty what boat would that be? I don't quite understand what seperates either one of us at this point aside from conflicting view points.
 
Luckily no one has to be asked that question. Those in service make that decision for themselves for better or for worse and i couldn't imagine it being any other way. I hold soldiers in the highest regard and will continue to do so until i'm in the dirt. It's not something i could do for more reasons than i can think of or could be given to me. This, if nothing else, is the basis of my opinion. Any action that brings a life lived for others to an end is not okay by me, whether it be morally correct or not i'm just not comfortable with it on a personal level.

They are good people because they are all the same people.

No. Same doesn't equal good or bad.

A civil war is a war between country men, between families, it's brother against brother.

Me and my brother may disagree, we may even fight, but he's still a good man to me.

TO YOU.

Again, same doesn't equal good or bad.

Ok, let's try this. :thumbsup:

LOL. That's the most childish thing yet.
Rones, all I see is you making statements that at least 3 people disagreed with. Then you make reference to those that are not as empathetic as you believe and adult should be, finding them to act similarly to children.
You brought that element to this discussion, and then post some shit like this?

Shame on you.

You are a very intelligent guy, but you are doing yourself and injustice by making an ass out of yourself now.

Perhaps your best option would simply be to agree to disagree rather than to call those with different viewpoints selfish and childish.

Don't bother with any more psychoanalysis of anyone. You're just wasting your time.

Boo.

Whatever, I know when a discussion is dead.

I'd know damn well if I killed something too.
 
Mokk said:
The issue is not that it hasen't been provided the issue is you refuse to validate said philosiphy by allowing for the justifications provided on the grounds you disagree. I'm well aware of the implications of my opinion, however they are simply that, my opinion. That you simulataniously vehemently deny and request my rationale, logic and philosophy on the issue provides me with no option for discourse on the subject.


We have a winner.

How many people here would sacrifice your Dads to save 800 Iraqis?

I would not. Fuck anyone else.

In a civil war, if my Father and I were at opposite ends, believing something differently at the core, pointing guns at each other, I could kill him.

Kill or be killed...For what you believe in.

Iraqis are the least of my fucking concerns. They should be dealing with their problems between themselves, especially now that America has enabled them to create an administration. If the majority of people support that system, why would they bail out on it if America handed it off to them, the rightful owners?
 
Mokk said:
Why are you arguing?


Because he's pissed he can't get his way. Because you aren't wrong, and he can't prove it...But dammit, he'll try anything just to make himself feel better. This is a nerd's "angry" reaction...Killing you would book smarts. All right!

Get over yourself Rones. WTF?

That's what I saw too.
Just because Rones' remarks could be called intelligent, doesn't automatically exclude him from being a jackass.

How many times must I repeat this. Go reread my posts. I am refering to his ideas and views. Scroll up and you'll see I even said I don't consider Mokk childish, however I am tempted to call you noobish for posting 8 times in a row instead of just making one long post.
LOL. That's the most childish thing yet.

I don't usually try to make humor, and this is exactly why. I was trying to bring a funny end to a discussion no one appeared to want. I am use to having at least three people disagree with me (DD, trippy, and mokk), so that doesn't mean much. I criticize an idea as childish, provide proof and a source as to how I came to that conclusion. Then I post one funny picture in an attempt to end a discussion the other side says they don't want...and that makes me an immature hypocrit? Thank goodness you don't get in on most of our debates. This thread doesn't have enough trippy... that must be the problem :nyam:
 
before you started one there wasen't much of a debate, to be fair, and on the same note your childish viewpoint opinion doesn't stand up, there's a very good criticism on kholbergs theory which is applicable to this instance down the page. On the same note, why single me out instead of also including sculli and sneaky on this? .. that's what i understood least of all about your posts it's not like i was the sole opposition ... or opposition at all, my FIRST POST says i not only agree but disagree with you.

This thread has been pages upon pages of me repeating myself and you looking for any way possible to discredit my opinion, which is at base your opinion on the global scale and a somewhat more selfish (as you put it, id've gone with empathetic and compassionate to our own troops, but meh) viewpoint on a personal note. It's just off.

Sneaky, not the FB, you CAN edit that all into one post, instead of posting like six times in a row.
