Yeah I thought that trailer was quite impressive as well. Let us hope that it turns out well.

No one has answered my question yet. Please do not ignore it.

No..sorry, I've actually moved away from that concept of morality because of this thread. And what a big deal that is, eh? Online conversations changing the way I think about something as big as morality. Doesn't happen often. But it IS possible! ; ) But no, I was referring to my posts...

Montrez, why is my outline of the origin of morality unacceptable? (end of page 1, and page 2)

Ah, yes, perhaps I would have been more apt to say judge instead of lawyer. My point was that it is possible to be married without interaction with the Church.

Well my apologies GP, but as I am not Canadian, I am not aware to the ins and outs of gay marriage in Canada. Frankly, I think you are in the wrong forum to be insisting on questions like these. You might try finding one that is more heavily populated by Canadians, since I doubt that there are...

Actually they wouldn't need to be married in a church at all. People are married by lawyers all the time. I'll post more tommorow, but for now I have to second Ghandi's last two questions. It seems to me that gay marriages benefit homosexuals, and are not detrimental to society while...

Yes, I would like to argue for him, or at least along side him. You aren't making it very easy for me to do that though. Sure you don't want me to back off?

GP, maybe you should just tell us where you are going with this. It's not going anywhere as is.

You presume much about me GP. Please do not. I posted the dictionary.com definition of the word love with a specific purpose in mind. You are trying to establish a base premise with which to build an argument upon, so I went to the objective definition of the word. If you want to work with my...

No I am not. Still searching for the right person.

Well yes, it's still love. You did not answer my question though. What kind of negative concequences are you referring to?

Please elaborate on why two peoples' love can hurt society. This is the meat of the matter.

Well here's the thing, hescommin. It seems to me your placement of faith is entirely arbitrary. You base your faith completely on the Bible, but give no reason for that faith other than the Bible itself. To me, that essentially means that you decided to put your faith in Christianity for...

So the reason the Bible is superior to all other religious texts is because the Bible says that it is. That is a fallacy, sir. You cannot justify the Bible with the Bible. All religious texts have proclaimed that same thing: That they are the sole owner of truth in the world. Their Gods...

Why is your religious text superior or more true than all others? Please be specific.

I haven't seen the film yet, but I've heard good things. I must say tho, I did not enjoy Spirited Away at all. I thought the character development was terrible and the plot way too bizzare. How similar to Spirited Away is Moving Castle? I did like Princess Mononoke--my all time anime...

Lying is one that is difficult to be handled by a law, though the law does make an attempt, as you can be persecuted by giving false testimony. But you are right--someone probably would not learn that lying is wrong from the law. And yet, most all people do know that lying is wrong, so where...

How can there be law without morality? The two are very similar. Sometimes interchangible, as in the case of the wrongness of murder and stealing. Laws generally deal with day to day protocol, while morals deal with the more complex and intangible situations like adultery. Both are systems...
