... and maybe if you lived on an island, where the water was blue, and the sand was white. Your bungalow was only 50metres from the sea, and one has only to cross the casuarinas to touch the beach and its see-through blue waters. For four days you could be left alone to listen to the muted chuckle and chatter of the waves and their eternal quarrel with the beach sands under a bright blue sky.
Then you have to go back to work. But fortunately work is under the sea ...
1) Because it is a culture that we all acquire items in our life to make life easier. e.g. You dont need a car - but do you have one? You dont needa computer - but you have one. Nowadays life is all about acquisition and attainment. IT is in our culture to want what our parents didnt have.
2) Relationships are never permanent, anyone who thinks they are, are only kidding themselves. People change and when you wake up and say "I dont love you anymore" then its over. Expectation is the real killer of most relationships. You expect that things will stay as they are, but people are all changing all the time.
3) Im assuming you mean "Why give birth to a child you cant love" In answer to that question ... Because its sometimes more preferable than to have it aborted. Also termination might be against the religion of the person. There are a whole heap of resons why.
4) There are reasons why the birth of a child is necessary and not criminal. Do you want to start the debate on third-world children?
Not only can I spell Justice, I can also spell "futile waste" and "barbarism"
I dont need to see photos of dead children to realise that humanity is a blight on Mother Earth. We will never
If you know anything about hanging, you would know that death is instantaneous if done properly. The knot is placed behind the ear and then when the trap door opens the knot actually snaps the neck and the person dies immediately. Where is the suffering there? IF you want suffering ... and I have no idea why you would?
I disagree. It then makes you no better than him ... and dont get frustrated with me because I disagree with you, you want to debate this, then bring it on. Ill debate it with you without your little histrionics.
You dont know him, you have not met him, he has done nothing to hurt you.
Is life that cheap that you wish a total stranger death?
Why dont you wish previous presidents of the US the same thing? While you are at it, throw in a shed-load of British Prime Ministers, add a small dash of African dictators and you have mass killings.
Tell you what, lets kill all the people who have wished people dead and meant it. Well I admit there would be a mass cull on all human life.
Killing makes no sense. It doesnt matter who does it. There is no real punishment for a murderer, self defence is an excuse for taking a life. When your own is in danger, then its kill or be killed.
Locking him up would be a better punishment. But then you would not be able to appease the Kurds.
Jim's idea has merit, as it would be an eye for an eye.
But then you have to look at Mussolini's demise to see that it doesnt take the problem away.
Being a martyr is a way of life. Some muslims welcome it.
That all depends on your definition of good and bad.
For one and only time, I will admit to agreeing with Yami.
Unless you get both sides of the story, you cannot make a judgment on what is good and what is bad.
You also have to bear in mind that love is only a temporary condition. You love today - finito! If you love tomorrow then that is another day. You may wake up and say to your partner, I dont love you any more. But as most people dont do that, and resort to sniding and bickering as they believe that they are hard done-by, when in reality if it was recognised by both parties that nothing is forever, and every day that you and your partner love each other is a bonus.
But recognising that you are "out of love" should not be a worry. We are all in transient relationships in one form or another. So when you do wake up and realise that the person lying next is not the person you are in love with, get out of bed and tell them. What do you have to lose. No point in living a lie
Its not that its too quick, its that it will not actually make any difference.
If he is hanged then it is not a punishment.
Reading back this thread, it amazes me.
What rights do we have to wish someone dead? Are we that degenerate that we wish pain and suffering on such a grand scale on another human being?
Admittedly he didnt care about the pain and suffering he imposed on others, but why should we lower ourselves to wish him death.
He must not die for two reasons. If he gets killed he will be a martyr. The last thing that the West wants is an uprising in the name of a dead martyr.
Secondly, killing another human being is not right unless you are in mortal danger yourself.. He has been adjudged as guilty. There is no contention.
But is this the proper way to deal with him?
He will be more powerful in death than he will be in life.
He will not suffer the way he tortured and murdered his victims.
after what you had me doing in the cellar last time, you think with the little bit of freedom I get once a month I am going to come back early???
But its ok Im heading back now! I do hope you havent moved my spores collection in the door of the refridgrator. It took ages to get them rainbow coloured!
After having a quick coffee with one of your siblings and their three dogs at your apartment overlooking the river, you all decide to go for a little walk along the river to admire the view and have a little chat. About 5 mins into the walk you come across the pub that is up on the cliff and head in towards there with the three dogs trotting along behind, in front and genereally everywhere.
Coming out of the pub door is a vision! Someone you look at and think OMFG, how cute!!! This person has been into the pub and with their dog has been refused entry into the pub because of the dog.
You start up a conversation with this person about how pubs should let dogs in and how they will lose business because they dont let them in and how ... yada yada etc.
After about a 10 minute chat, you and the vision agree to meet up sometime for a drink, and then part company.
Then you realise you have been a complete numpty and forgotten to ask their number.
You know their first name, their dog's name and that they have only just moved into the area.
On the off chance, you go to the pub exactly a week later, at the same time the chance encounter occurs, to see if there was a repeat occurence. NADA!!!
You try different times of the day, to see if the dog gets walked that way at all. Nope!!!
