What is evil?

You ARE kidding, right?

 

No, I'm not.

 

Allrighty then.....

 

Howard Stern and Martha Stewart.

 

What exactly do you have against me agreeing with a post that stated "good is what you like, evil is what you don't." To you, celebrating the 4th is GOOD but to an American Indian with millions of dead ancestors, it's EVIL. To you, the "war" in Iraq may be GOOD but to the 150,000 dead over there it's EVIL. I believe the Holocaust was EVIL (and not just because I'm a Jew) but to the millions of people at the time who gave their president unlimited and untapped power, made it damaging to question authority and turned their backs on those different from them, it was GOOD (not to be confused with Bush supporters, though barely, ask Mexicans and Arabs). At the end of the day, it's relative. I wish there was one universal standard of good and evil but there's not.

 

It's ridiculous. If "good is what you like, evil is what you don't"...then licorice is purely evil. I'm guessing you voted for Kerry and have a bunch of bumperstickers on your car. You liken Bush supporters to supprters of the 3rd Reich?!?!?!? If you believe that, you are truly ignorant. Go protest some shit you know nothing about.

Hitler wasn't "president"..btw.

 

I know that Hitler wasn't President, I used lowercase, he was their head of state and I used the term appropriately. And good and evil is based on what you like (or more accurately, what you do or don't approve of, remember, this was NOT my quote). And yes, there is little difference in the policies 1930's Germans endorse and what modern-day Bush-supporters do. Obviously, I'm not saying Bush supporters (not to be confused with the more reasonable, non Neo-Con GOP) want to kill Jews (they need Jews in order for Jesus to come back and then we get wasted), what I am saying is that Bush-supporters pratice American exceptionalism (America can do no wrong, no matter how illegal), Bush-supporters support the complete merging of unaccountable corporate oligarchies running the government (this is the true meaning of facism, by the way, so Bush-supporters endorse facism), Bush-supporters endorse giving unlimited power to their head of state all with none of the checks and balances the Founding Fathers authored (it's funny how big, tough, truck driving Bush-guys say "these colors don't run" or "a boot up Saddam's ass" but get so scared of the latest fabricated "dangers" they are willing to give up the Bill of Rights) and lastly, Bush-supporters endorse Bush's draconian tactics of those who question his "authority" like him bringing in the editors of the New York Times and Washington Post to force them into surpressing his domestic spying (an impeachable offense, by the way, the FISA courts rubber stamp everything even retroactively), or the dozens of other things he's done that I can go on about. I know you have a false narrative about your world and to take you out of your Matrix would emotionally cripple you at this point but shouldn't you be fighting for your beliefs in a desert somewhere instead trying to lamely argue with a girl by stating she feels as though licorice is evil?

 

Tell the families of those who died on 9/11 that the threat is fabricated. That is what people like you do not get, it really is a war and we really do face the possiblity of another major terror attack that could potentially dwarf 9/11.

You really need to post in the 'News of the Day" forum if you are going to argue about Bush and the war in every post. You are hijacking other threads this way.

 

You must not be a practicing jew. The bible has formed the basis of this standard for western culture for over one thousand years. The fact that you do not like the standard does not mean it does not exist.

 

Bush obviously wasn't serious about the threat of 9/11 because he ignored his August 7, 2001 Presidential Daily Briefing on the matter, never met with his terrorism czar beforehand and was mum on Al-Qeada throughout that year even though experts said they would be THE major threat. And stop throwing 9/11 around, you guys are one-trick ponies. "Why are you taking my freedoms away?" "Oh, because of 9/11." You people use the memories of those we lost on 9/11 whenever backed into a corner. The 9/11 dead were exploited to get us into Iraq and to justify Bush usurping away our Bill of Rights. Again, why aren't you, yourself fighting in a desert right now if you believe so strongly?
