Sharia Law, Because Why Not?

[The Dharma Bum]

All that stuff I like to talk about, which you always summarily dismiss, comes from books that you are completely unaware of. Books written by some of the greatest minds in history. It is difficult to discuss complex subjects with ignorant people who refuse to open their minds to a different perspective than to the one that they learned as children.

So while you think you are smart for rejecting things that seem counter intuitive to you what it really amounts to is you being willfully ignorant.

I thought it went without saying that "human suck" is a turn of phrase. Should of put in a disclaimer, I guess.

Specifically which limits did I ignore. Please tell me, because I just went back through my posts and yours and I don't see where I actually ignored anything...

Please quote me actually saying things, as opposed to just claiming I'm saying things.

But anyways...yes, people just being evil, selfish, greedy, violent, stupid, or whatever else is very much a major consideration here. The difference between our interpretations, as far as I can tell, is that you primarily blame problems like poverty and violence on society by extension of laws or sociological expectations...whereas I lean more towards blaming people themselves for doing things that lead to these outcomes. Your take on this suggests that because society can be blamed for this, society can be engineered to correct it. Apologies if I've misread you on that. I'm more of the thinking that these outcomes are a constant, and so society can only be structured to limit the damage. Thus the rainwater analogy that you denigrated.

I then went on at some length about my opinions on that topic. But you completely ignored me, assuming I guess that I actually meant something else altogether?

None of this stuff is particularly complicated. Dunno how I'm not communicating my opinions properly...because you keep responding as if I'd said something totally different.

Lol people who live in depressed poor areas commit crimes because of "human suck", not lack of education and economic opportunity.
