Pretty grim , huh? And then they (Skeptics) ask if aliens are real how come they dont land at the white house? Now...if we cant get along with our own brothers and sisters because of the color of their skin , what makes you believe that we are ready to accept a new and probably more advanced species? And yet...i have to hope that maybe one day , we will grow out of the self-destruction mode that we are right now. There is still , love , compassion , self sacrifice. All is not lost. Great Post. |

Date: 7/13/2002 7:11:00 PM From Authorid: 55376 What makes you believe more advanced species will not behave in the same ways? There are plenty of deer, what harm does it do to waste a single carcass? Why is commercial sex between consenting adults a universal evil? Why should we live in the trees when we can build nice homes? Og |
Date: 7/13/2002 7:16:00 PM ( From Author ) From Authorid: 15319 "What makes you believe more advanced species will not behave in the same ways?" Simple, they are ADVANCED. They have overcome the arrogance and ignorance humans suffer through. "There are plenty of deer, what harm does it do to waste a single carcass?" There are plenty of humans, what harm does it do to waste a single one of them? "Why is commercial sex between consenting adults a universal evil?" Whatever happened to sex between two people in love? Is the planet really so bad we have to resort to buying the right to watch two people have sex? "Why should we live in the trees when we can build nice homes?" No one said you had to, but destroying half the forest for one house is ridiculous. |
Date: 7/13/2002 7:20:00 PM From Authorid: 55376 Sorry advancements in technology do not equate to increased tolerance. Are you stating that the white man was more morally advanced then the red man. I never heard of a whole forest being cut down to build two houses. Could you please tell me where that occurred? Og |
Date: 7/13/2002 7:22:00 PM From Authorid: 55376 It is harmful to kill a human, because we are human. Laws against killing are for the benefit of the population. Just like most animals do not resort to cannibalism. Og |
Date: 7/13/2002 7:29:00 PM ( From Author ) From Authorid: 15319 With advancements in technology and progress come advances in tolerance. Humans might eventually advance their intelligence to a point where they will find it pointless to squabble over such things. As for the forest thing, look at ANY forest clearing incident. I personally witnessed them plowing down 10 acres for a SMALL department store. The white man was LESS morally advanced then the red man. I didn't see the red man invade white territory and force them out. p.s. Goodnight, I'm going to sleep. Reply tomorrow morning. |
Date: 7/13/2002 8:11:00 PM From Authorid: 55376 First you state with advances in technology come advancements in tolerance, then you state the white man, despite being more technologically advanced, was morally inferior to the red man. A big contradiction here. Of course than you infer environmentalism is somehow morally superior.The alien in that spaceship might be a homophobic racist who is looking for a new planet to live on because his kind have already destroyed his own.

Date: 7/13/2002 8:31:00 PM From Authorid: 50435 Obviously you are not aware that the "Red Man" was at it amongst each other prior to the "Pale Face" coming over. Every civilization is at the mercy of warmongers. To answer your question about houses, Og, it is better to live in the trees because the property taxes are cheaper there...LOL. I agree about deforestation. It's out of control, particularly in areas like South America. I'm not a tree-hugger, but I do see a need to push reforestation even further... |
Date: 7/13/2002 9:27:00 PM From Authorid: 55376 The places where deforestation is a problem is in the less prosperous societies, not in the advanced economies. Og |
Date: 7/13/2002 9:29:00 PM From Authorid: 55376 Actually I am not arguing moral superiority of either group, just stating under Dark Angel's theory the more technologically advanced white man should have been morally superior. No relationship between hi-tech and morality. Og |
Date: 7/13/2002 10:35:00 PM From Authorid: 50435 I agree with Og on that last point... |
Date: 7/13/2002 10:41:00 PM From Authorid: 55376 Canadians are smart people. Og |

Date: 7/14/2002 4:48:00 AM ( From Author ) From Authorid: 15319 Og, point well taken. I do see how this could be a contradiction. Good reply. |
Date: 7/15/2002 11:01:00 AM From Authorid: 54987 LOL Some say that we are indeed aliens ourselves who came down and and interbred with the real inhabitants - pro-magnon man. So welcome to the dollhouse. Coolade |
