i guess we have to wait for sin...
im sorry but i think FFX is probably the best FF. maybe FFVII but personally, FFX is my favSelf_indulgence
LOL So off topic, but I got way more attached to FFX's characters than in FFVII's lol. Nice quote though lol.
It really isn't about sin, but about intent and foresight I think. We must be mindful of who we are and what we do. Maybe with a little change, we can make everything better for ourselves and everyone else.
So it's not really about good and evil, it's "jenseits von gut und bose."
Why would you be proud of living in Texas? Texas sucks; I don't really see anything to be proud of. I live in California, which is clearly a superior state (as are many others), and while most people love it here there doesn't seem to be anywhere near the same level of state pride. I might be able to grasp the idea of being proud of your states history, but Texas' history isn't very interesting.danteswrath2000
LAWL My my aren't we smug. Texas has quite an interesting history to me. The story of how it became one is nothing simple. I know that California is full of history too. Such a smug and shallow attitude to a place you really don't know much about only proves how unintelligent you are. Ever considered travelling or reading about other states or countries? It's good stuff. Hope you go to different places someday, both inside the US and outside.
[QUOTE="TacticalElefant"][QUOTE="Poedon"]That's what i'm saying. If the technology exists then it should be available to those who want to utilize it. The decision has to be hard enough to make in the first place.[QUOTE="foxhound_fox"]It's up to the woman to make that choice... no one else.TongHua
As much as I am to fight the forces that be, I almost don't want to support any stem cell research or over the top medicine considering it's possible our move to things so out of natural placement might have been the reason why we are suffering in the first place. Technology might have screwed us in the butt this whole time. War, smog, terrible unnatural healthy diets, etc. may all be the reason why cancer is so much more prevelant, and finding "cures" is almost some ironic idea in my own opinion. We have so far to go before we can reach true health. Technology is good, I love technology, but it's obviously done alot to destroy we as people and human beings. I almost desire us to be punished, but at the same time I myself and others must suffer at the hands of stupidity and we commit ourselves our sins and act without foresight to what may be. I hope it's not a God-complex, but maybe it's my desire to make people finally put some real effort into better ourselves as people in real ways as it seems that our own demises and losses are the only motivations.
Technology is the reason the average life span of a human (70 in a modern society like ours) is roughly triple the life span of a human that is born and raised in the wild. Technology is also the reaon I can tell this to you and the reason I can see this. Basically, technology isn't some god complex brought on by our advancements, nor is it the reason for our problems or our wants. Technology will be the reason Cancer will be erased from human history, it is the reason we know the Earth is round and it is the reason common diseases aren't wiping off the human race. It's the reason we can exist for so long inidividually to triumph through ourselves. It is the reason there are six and a half billion people who can read what I'm typing. It has far from destroyed us, it has made us triumph as a species. It took six thousand years of accumulated effort to send this message to you, don't be ingrateful.
I could never imagine living without our crucial technology, but I do think we as a species, is spoiled. Like I said our technology is improving our lives but at the detriment of other fronts of our environment. My concern is if it'll come back and bite us in the ass. Cars, aircraft (btw I'm an aviation nut) and what not has despite provided us with quick means of transportation as well as power for factories and electricity, it's created massive amounts of acid rain, and destroyed parts of the atmosphere. Sure we are finally realizing what we've done wrong in that area of technology, but what about nuclear waste, trash waste, and other left overs that destroy parts of the environment. There have been studies linked to the increase in cancer being analogous to decreasing levels of oxygen in the atmosphere caused by pollution and destruction of vegetation, especially that of the rainforest. No I'm not a supporter of Green Peace, but I do believe in conservation and globalization/civilization with concern, intelligence, and responsibility. Things that humanity has much to improve upon. I'm not trying to judge but I only want things to continue, I want life to continue to exist on this planet. Now depending on your view of this phrase, I like to turn it around back on others: "Be fruitful and multiply". I wish it could be changed to "Be fruitful and multiply, but don't be stupid."
