It's hard to get people to think rationally when they are blinded with hate. My post still stands. Discussing stupidity and ignorance and its influence on suffering is still completely valid, but the tone with which it was delivered was reactionary. I could've made the same points without letting my own bias interfere.
I'm not perfect either. But at least I know how to balance it.
The situation we have now, is you're dancing around the issue so as not to address the points.
Is hate the answer? Does it solve anything? Does it HELP bring people or society together?
I just got finished with Robert above in his contorted defense of hatred.
Care to give it a shot?
I'm not off-the-beam today. No emotion or bias to taint the message.

Let's party....
