OK Booth, whatever helps you sleep at night.

God, enough with the abstractness. When I see 'something', 'anything', and 'subjective' all in the same sentence, it is safe to say that it can be seen as one of those "all-purpose" sentences to which nothing of value can be extracted. However, this is a pretty abstract topic in general, so I guess there's not a point to debate, as it does break down for each individual to decide.

I don't get it. What does warm milk have to do with anything?

I just love it when someone finishes a debate by saying 'I'm too stupid for this discussion but I'm still right'.

I wouldn't say Adam Griffin was trying to call himself stupid, he was just admitting he has problems dealing with abstract concepts.

OK, then, when someone says I don't understand what we're discussing but I'm still right, that amuses me.

No, it is when an argument breaks down to such abstractness that neither side can be proven, then it becomes futile to argue. I already admitted that I understood the basis of Sic's argument in the beginning, so I really don't see why the hell you are rambling.

I was rambling? Well, if you understood it, good for you. It gets tiresome with all the stupid newbies that's been invading the forum, so I occassionally step out of line. Sorry.

DU is Democratic underground, right? I don't participate in forums save this, so I'm not familiar with the other one.

Except for those people!  Being the computer illiterate person that I am, would you mind if I tried to use this image in my signature so as to make everything fit?

Big deal, Social issues cost the Democrats the South.

1976: Carter wins every state in the South but Virginia.

2004: Kerry loses every Southern state.

Correct, PBrunsel - tolerance wins on the coasts, intolerance in the South. 

Not exactly big news.

By that logic, morality wins the South and immorality wins on the coasts.

'Morality' is just subjective preference, Brandon H.  You prude.

Wrong. Morality, at least ideally, is a code which allows for a proper functioning of society.

Yes, it is someone's subjective preference imposed on others.

Umm... I'm not describing alternate or different moralities. Just the base concept of morals. And some morals aren't subjective.For instance, 'thou shalt not murder' is very much not subjective (Although some might argue the definition of murder).

So you oppose the Iraq war?
