Perhaps not, however, if the blame is accurately assigned, does judgement follow?
dragonqueen
06-09-2006, 12:28 AM
don't people in general judge unjustly in many cases?
es347fan
06-10-2006, 10:05 AM
Could that leap to judgement be qualified as stereotyping?
warrior woman
06-13-2006, 01:22 PM
So why do we really care? huh?:woohoo:
es347fan
06-13-2006, 05:50 PM
Are you not demonstrating continued interest through participation?
warrior woman
06-14-2006, 12:25 PM
Are you always right about everything???:cool:
es347fan
06-15-2006, 03:21 AM
Has that not been clearly demonstrated?
warrior woman
06-16-2006, 03:13 PM
Would you admit to otherwise??? :hahanot:
es347fan
06-16-2006, 05:20 PM
Would that not be a contradiction?
dragonqueen
06-18-2006, 01:30 AM
aren't contradictions the spice in life?
es347fan
06-18-2006, 07:14 AM
Must society overdose on that spice before coming to its' collective senses?
dragonqueen
06-18-2006, 09:58 PM
would there be anyway to stop society from overdosing?
es347fan
06-19-2006, 07:58 AM
Would that not interfere with free will?
dragonqueen
06-19-2006, 11:46 AM
why is common sense not so common anymore?
es347fan
06-19-2006, 12:21 PM
Might it be that many are becoming accustomed to machines or others providing all the answers rather than making those decisions on their own?
dragonqueen
06-19-2006, 02:29 PM
but why should the use of machines stop the normal functioning of human minds?

Have you experienced a store cashier that could not make correct change without the cash register telling them the amount?
AdvGirl32
06-20-2006, 03:12 PM
what are your thoughts on the robotic cashiers at grocery stores where you do the work yourself all electronically?
dragonqueen
06-20-2006, 04:25 PM
can one have a true opinion if you have no idea what the subject is?
es347fan
06-20-2006, 06:06 PM
One would be inclined to doubt the clarity of the opinion, would they not?
dragonqueen
06-20-2006, 10:53 PM
Another question to ask would be would one be able to trust someone who pulls an opinion out with no knowledge of the subject?
es347fan
06-21-2006, 08:14 AM
Isn't that a technique permitted by the S.W.A.G. handbook?
AdvGirl32
06-21-2006, 04:23 PM
this is a serious question.
what is the S.W.A.G handbook?
lol
es347fan
06-21-2006, 10:17 PM
And you're in college?
AdvGirl32
06-22-2006, 11:08 AM
How does one attain this so called S.W.A.G. handbook?
A Scientific Wild Ass Guess... handbook!
Yes, I am in college.
I never read that handbook before. lol
Sounds interesting though. haha
es347fan
06-22-2006, 02:41 PM
Would that handbook be of use?
Yes ... s.w.a.g. the handbook of all who make things up as they go along, yet need a source that sounds important & valid.
dragonqueen
06-22-2006, 11:35 PM
can one just use it as a reference?
es347fan
06-23-2006, 06:23 AM
Is that the kind of thing you'd want to rely on completely?
dragonqueen
06-24-2006, 12:28 AM
does using something as a reference mean you actually believe the source? :confused:
es347fan
06-24-2006, 07:45 AM
Must one believe it to repeat it?
dragonqueen
06-25-2006, 12:54 AM
isn't that what I just asked?
AdvGirl32
06-25-2006, 08:30 AM
how did we start talking about this?
Can we change subjects?
dragonqueen
06-25-2006, 03:34 PM
didn't you just change it?
es347fan
06-26-2006, 03:20 AM
Do your thoughts sometimes race through your brain?
dragonqueen
06-26-2006, 11:36 AM
why are racing thoughts so difficult to catch?
es347fan
06-26-2006, 08:34 PM
Would they be known as lazy thoughts otherwise?
dragonqueen
06-27-2006, 01:08 AM
isn't there a happy medium in there somewhere?
es347fan
06-27-2006, 03:42 PM
As in mediocre complacency?
dragonqueen
06-27-2006, 04:17 PM
why is being happy with the middle ground considered mediocre?
es347fan
06-28-2006, 08:36 AM
Are you making assumptions?
dragonqueen
06-30-2006, 04:41 PM
would taking replies to questions and using them as a bases for information be assumed as an assumption?
es347fan
07-01-2006, 01:03 PM
Do you buy into the old adage regarding assumptions?
dragonqueen
07-01-2006, 10:28 PM
would you be able to refresh my memory on said old adage?
The Dude
07-01-2006, 10:32 PM
Are you referring to the topic currently at hand?
dragonqueen
07-01-2006, 11:09 PM
would I be referring to anything else?
shortstuff
07-02-2006, 07:26 AM
How easy is it to get lost on this topic?
es347fan
07-02-2006, 09:00 AM
Is feeling lost a state of mind?
(assume: to make an ass of you & me)(to assume is to err)
shortstuff
07-02-2006, 09:50 AM
what really is a state of mind and can it be lost?
dragonqueen
07-02-2006, 11:31 PM
what is a lost mind of state?
es347fan
07-03-2006, 01:34 PM
How is that relevant to the topic at hand?
dragonqueen
07-03-2006, 11:47 PM
can it be relevant in it's irrelevancy? (pleae excuse my spelling :p)
es347fan
07-04-2006, 07:39 AM
Woulnd't that be a contradiction?
dragonqueen
07-05-2006, 11:26 PM
can there even be contradictions in a theoretical question?
es347fan
07-06-2006, 11:18 AM
Would discussing theoretical contradictions give the impression that the response had been given more consideration?
dragonqueen
07-06-2006, 11:35 PM
have you ever wondered if you have not given a certain theoretical question enough thought then found out you did?
es347fan
07-07-2006, 11:09 PM
Would that not be tantamount to admitting error?
dragonqueen
07-08-2006, 01:50 AM
isn't admitting error to yourself mandatory to grow?
es347fan
07-08-2006, 01:36 PM
Would that encourage deceit?
shortstuff
07-08-2006, 08:23 PM
What is deceit and how do you measure it
dragonqueen
07-09-2006, 12:20 AM
isn't deceit a here or not kind of thing?
shortstuff
07-09-2006, 10:14 AM
What is the here and now?
es347fan
07-09-2006, 08:20 PM
Would not a definition be fleeting, given the fluidity of time?
dragonqueen
07-09-2006, 11:42 PM
are there any definitions that have remained the same throughout the ages?
shortstuff
07-10-2006, 12:53 AM
What is the definition of through the ages?
The Dude
07-12-2006, 04:46 AM
Are you saying you dont know?
NaNaNaNiki
07-12-2006, 12:11 PM
How do you know if you don't know?
es347fan
07-12-2006, 04:14 PM
Would the inability to properly answer the query be answer enough?
shortstuff
07-14-2006, 06:00 PM
would the answer, answer the query though?
dragonqueen
07-14-2006, 06:40 PM
Are there any strait answers in life?
shortstuff
07-14-2006, 08:21 PM
what is life and how can we answer it?
es347fan
07-17-2006, 05:13 PM
Is that a requirement to keep on breathing?
shortstuff
07-18-2006, 03:02 PM
Without breathing can you live?
es347fan
07-21-2006, 05:16 PM
Have you ever tried not breathing?
shortstuff
07-21-2006, 05:21 PM
yes, but to not breath causes death and is death what we want?
Decka
07-22-2006, 12:38 AM
why are you trying to figure out if death is what we want?
shortstuff
07-22-2006, 12:51 AM
can we ever truly figure out death and why it happens?
WindWip
08-25-2006, 02:00 PM
why are we dwelling on death?
jerejerebinks
08-25-2006, 02:07 PM
why dwell upon the dwelling on death?
shit that was hard!
es347fan
08-28-2006, 04:08 AM
Is it not an image fraught with morbid fascination?
shortstuff
08-28-2006, 10:54 AM
What is morbid fascination?
es347fan
08-28-2006, 09:47 PM
Would you expect it to be any less than a decadent undertaking?
WindWip
08-30-2006, 04:28 PM
Will we ever be able to live forever?
shortstuff
08-30-2006, 05:40 PM
Would you want to live forever and why?
~Sal~
09-01-2006, 09:43 PM
No, for who could know what misery one would face for eternity were one to live forever?
Oldtimer
09-01-2006, 11:38 PM
Misery, do you what misery really is?
~Sal~
09-02-2006, 07:54 AM
Could one really "know" misery unless one first truly experienced it?
Oldtimer
09-02-2006, 12:11 PM
Can you know any emotion unless you first experienced it?
es347fan
09-02-2006, 12:13 PM
Is it necessary to know one to be able to speak about it?
shortstuff
09-02-2006, 08:19 PM
Is emotion something that most would share as an emotion?
MacKenzie
09-08-2006, 03:07 PM
why share emotions?
managemysite
09-09-2006, 07:09 PM
by figuring out death we figure out the meaning of life
shortstuff
09-18-2006, 01:14 PM
Can we ever figure out the meaning of life or is there just death?
es347fan
09-23-2006, 07:45 AM
Is not death part of life?
~Sal~
09-23-2006, 12:53 PM
Is not life perhaps enjoyed more deeply because of death?
es347fan
09-23-2006, 01:54 PM
Would you be saddened to learn there was no life after death?
shortstuff
09-24-2006, 01:58 AM
Why does there have to be life after death?
es347fan
09-24-2006, 06:10 AM
Does it not keep hope for redemption alive?
~Sal~
09-24-2006, 09:24 AM
Hmmmmmmm, you need to be redeemed?
es347fan
09-24-2006, 10:47 AM
Just who among us is not?
~Sal~
09-24-2006, 12:05 PM
Are there not some who would be unworthy?
