Animal rights. Animals only have the right to be eaten.

The concept sounds pretty funny when you think of it... "Animal rights", he, he he.

One language would unite more people and would be far more practical. I don't see how anyone can disagree with me on that.

Why would you ban multiple languages? Are you so void of culture that you would just rather no one have it?

You can but if people want it then they'll find a way to get it. So there isn't really a point in banning it in the first place.

Nah it'd be better. For example now we can experience all shows without subtitles or crappy dubs, music, movies, could be more universal. It'd be easier to visit places. Could understand more people.

It'd be 100 times more fun.

Radical religion, as in there being a limit to how obsessed you should be with religion. I think having some faith is good, but guiding your entire life by some set of rules that limit your enjoyment on life is just stupid...all this bs i hear from ppl that dont do things cause of some silly rules they go by. You want to believe in god, go ahead and acknowledge him and thank him, but don't live a restricted life...

Andddd the labeling of grls/women as sluts/hoes/etc for having sex...women should be able to enjoy sex as much as a man does without having to get labeled with bad rep...

Andddd the war on drugs...this is just dumb.

You are being ignorant. Stalin and Mao were Communists, THAT was their dogmatic dictatorship. Atheism is a rejection of God's existance, it's not bound by any rule other than that, Atheists are not an organised belief system they are just people.

I know this (which is why I said "so has atheism"), but what I am saying is that all beliefs (or in the atheists case, lack of belief) have caused terror in the world.

Heh heh heh heh, don't get me started on the inquisition and medieval torture. What Stalin and Mao did were for progress in their economy to industrialize it. Sure it was at a terrible cost, but at least there was a reason. The religions back in the day did it to prevent change and enlightenment. For example, Galileo. If he, among other scholars were allowed to teach openly, we would probably be sotechnologically ahead.
Anyway, ever heard of the stretching rack?

You can't enforce something like languages.

By enforcing languages you are also enforcing literary arts.

You would also be placing a stupid law onto other people who for them their language may have a cultural importance.

Well english would be a good idea, because most people use it and most entertainment is in it but the easiest language to learn and master is German, which is why I nominated German.

And no, it isn't. If anything it will help them even moreso.

Easier? Sure. Better? It's arguable. But hey, life would be easy if we were all the same skin color, religion, ethnicity, etc. Languages are art in it's simplest form, why would you want to destroy something so fundamental to the human experience? For convenience?
