  1. Except that many children have already been conscripted into third-world militias, and have been killing for years. It would have to target them as well in order to even come close to hindering the violence inherent in human nature.

  3. What was that about ADD? Wait, I think I just saw a bat... Oh, shiny... Did you say something, or did I? I could go for some pizza...

     

    Sorry, forgot to remove the hyperactive part first.

  4. Granted. It is a 5' cube with no windows or doors, made of reinforced concrete, and you're stuck inside it.

     

    I wish they would make a movie that pitted all the most badass movie characters (Riddick, John McLane, The Terminator, Rambo, Frank Martin [from the Transporter], Dirty Harry, The Punisher, etc) against each other to see who would win.

  5. Be a better and far more stable individual than Rambo. (probly have better aim too)

     

    If watching a movie or listening to a piece of music more than once was considered piracy?

  6. You're lumping them all together, not taking them each separate. The bible does not condone any of the above. (read it again, the old testament is basically just a historical book so you can see where it originated, the new testament is where the ideals come from)

     

    The Torah and Qur'an are derivatives of the old testament, and were originally made by a guy that disliked the Jews.

     

    The book of Mormon isn't really related to anything, much less something that should be lumped together with the other you mentioned.

     

    OT: Waiting for my brother to get here.

  7. That's probably the most out of person thing I've ever heard you say, I would've thought you would deny the possibility of intelligent life based on some half assed bible thumping reason. But no, you surprised me.

    And yet for the past several hundred years the Catholic church has been looking for other life in the universe. There is absolutely nothing in the bible that says there isn't be life on other planets.

     

    If I were to guess about technology, I'd say there's a limit on how advanced any ONE species can make its technology, since there are limitations to each. (Although it's possible multi-species conglomerates could advance further than any individual species could, as their weaknesses would be in different areas.) So as a result, the "apes and angels" thing is likely nonsense. They're likely still WAY more advanced, but that's probably because they'd be at or near their technological limits. That's also why associating with other species, even more primitive ones, would be desirable as it's the only way a species at its limit could advance.

     

    Very possible, but I personally think that there will always be more tech levels to research. Right now the limiting factor is government and financing, sometimes time, but I doubt that even light-speed can withstand our progress barring xk-class end-of-the-world scenarios. ;)
