Sonic322 Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 1) I agree. All we do is sent food over and then don't do anything else. I mean the only people that claim to help are missionaries and all they do is tell you to stop believing in everything you know and believe in God and the Bible. That's not really helping anyone at all.They don't help with worldly issues, they help with spiritual issues. Spiritual issues can suck my ballz. I will always choose not starving, fending for my life, and not running the risk of catching a deadly disease over someone telling me to do this and that just to please any deity any day.

McJobless Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 4) I agree with you 100% If I go to Africa or the Amazon and find a tribe native who have never seen a modern human then by all means we should come in and try to preserve their culture and language but at the same time why don't we bring them into the modern era? You risk the destruction of their culture in trying to make them adapt to new technology. Look no further than the story of the Australian Aborigines for proof of my concept. I mean the Church use to only use Latin and everything was written in Latin and Latin dominated the world. Then the end of the Middle ages and the Renaissance came by and people said, "We don't know how to read, write, or speak Latin. Latin is a hard language to understand. Why don't we just speak in vernacular?" And they did and now Latin is a dead language that people try to learn about. Why? If it was so hard and you are NEVER EVER going to use it EVER then why make a huge deal about it? From my understanding, English and several other prominent languages of our era all found their roots in Latin. Latin also is very powerful in the idea that very few people can speak it; if you understand Latin, I can assure you that you will go far in this world... ...especially when writing dialogue for a Video Game... So a lot of old books and stuff can't be read anymore? Big deal. The church has all of them safely and meticulously stored in the Vatican's library and the church isn't ever going to let the public in there because of whatever reason they have. I mean their scapegoat is the phrase, "It's gods will." and when the printing press was invented then they didn't want people to actually read the now easily available and affordable bible because they want to control people instead of reading and thinking for themselves. So if the church are the only people that will be able to read stuff like Latin then let them. We will be to busy moving forward as the planet. I'd replace Shadows line of idiocy for your line of idiocy, as indicated in the bold bit, but at least I find some form of humour in his insult. That's the biggest line of bulls*** I've ever read on the internet, and I read a lot of Wikipedia. You need to stop hating on the Church, and start getting back on topic. The Church blocks you from getting those books for the same reason you can't enter the Oval Office, or you can't just walk into Israel if they find out you've been in Syria. It's not your place to be there; hell, the Vatican is, in its own way, a place of Business, and you have to have clearance to enter to make sure that you aren't going to just come in and desecrate what items they do posses. Past mistakes are just that; 'Past'. I'm going to leave that there, for anyone who wants to know the semi-real opinion I have of a previous post. Hopefully, it will remain only in this post, and that person will grow up and stop trying to act like he's the worlds smartest person, and thus can make judgement calls without any prior research in the field.. Now, with any luck, I'm going to ignore the rest of Sonic's rambling for all the bulls*** he's dumped in this topic, and just go on to say that in a truly Utopian society, there would be no need for money, but because of conflict, of nation borders and all the other problems we have, money is the only way we can sustain what little peace we do have.

Shadow322 Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 While I don't totally understand what your talking about I have to ask, what it work it there were only 6 world economies, 1 for each continent? There would have to be 7 for all 7 continents. I can't tell if you are excluding Antarctica because no one lives there or are grouping North and South America together like most ignorant people outside of America are taught. I was excluding Antarctica, the only people that "live" there are researchers and scientists. Hopefully, it will remain only in this post, and that person will grow up and stop trying to act like he's the worlds smartest person, and thus can make judgement calls without any prior research in the field. But why then are you the only one that gets to act like he's the worlds smartest person? RRU is not the place for religious or political discussion. Agreed.
