You know, I always am assuming people are basically good. My dealings with the right wing have begun to convince me otherwise, and stuff like this makes me wonder if I am just dead wrong.
We are dealing with animals who have no souls.
No human being treats another that way. Animals do. - inactive, on 03/14/2008, -1/+15That affected me very profoundly!
- Daz3, on 03/15/2008, -2/+7Human beings are animals and there is no such thing is a "soul".
- inactive, on 03/15/2008, -0/+4What I think it ridiculous is how it says 'they circulated video to his friends to show what kind of a man he was' implying that screaming in pain when having a broom handle shoved in your ass makes you less of a man.
Maybe they were implying that the police would have shouted 'god yes, push it deeper' if it were done to them instead of crying in pain.
*****. Torture never works unless you are trying to get someone to confess to something they didn't do. - belowir, on 03/15/2008, -0/+2i would think you would be more likely to get a false confession to stop the torture, which makes it even harder to gather accurate intelligence
- inactive, on 03/15/2008, -0/+2as much as I would like to agree, I have come to the conclusion that this is actually very 'humane'. I used to believe hardily in your statements but have realized that its human nature to want to torture, destroy, kill and inflict pain. I do NOT believe that it is moral and that morals are what is needed to keep humanity in check.
Its totally disgusting - inactive, on 03/15/2008, -0/+2ever seen a cat play with a mouse until it dies? bears do the same thing. I am sure I can use google to find other examples.
- TheMadPoet, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1And guess who supports the current regime in Egypt when we pay our taxes. This WP article attempts to present a balanced view: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_Brotherhood It's a better perspective than "Muslims are bad - mmmmmmm-kay."
- Daz3, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1Firstly, the belief that humans do not have a soul is independent of atheism. Secondly -
"If ever there were an entity invented for human wish-fulfillment, the soul is that entity. As Thomas Hobbes pointed out, the concept of a non-substantial substance is a contradiction. It is not possible to imagine a non-physical entity having life and perception. Even believers in souls always imagine them as being like human shaped clouds or fogs. It is a delusion to believe that the concept of soul is conceivable. Yet, billions of people have believed in a non-spatial perceiver which can travel through space and perceive and interpret vibrations and waves in the air without any sense organs."
If that is not the same as your concept of a "soul" then please define what you believe a soul to be so it can be refuted. - TrevaLVF, on 03/18/2008, -0/+1I recall a case where some New York cops did something similar to a guy.
- tabularassa, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1well said: "until it dies". They kill other animals to EAT them. not to humiliate them or to extract a confession.
- tabularassa, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1Actually, torture is done only by humans. The rest of the animals don't do that to each other.
- mountain19, on 03/15/2008, -2/+2much longer than night stick people. this is the horror our gov. is now allowed to do to you people. we are five yrs. too late i am afraid. to shocking a thought for Americans which they knew this. third world countries know more of our dealing than we do. all been about control and is still. we seem to like being told what to do. I DON'T! i am sickened at the site of this and the thought that young girl is now dead.
- inactive, on 03/15/2008, -2/+1The fact that I am being dugg down without a single argument proves my point on how atheists just HAVE to be right and any hard logical evidence to the contrary of their faith, all they need to do is put their fingers in their ears and shout 'lalala!'
- mybeat, on 03/15/2008, -3/+2note to self: don't go to Egypt
- RobertMarley, on 03/14/2008, -3/+1its all about how you treat someone from the beginning. our societies encourage this behavior. cut this form of media away and we're one step closer to becoming real human beings.
- RobertMarley, on 03/14/2008, -4/+1it looks like a nightstick
- inactive, on 03/15/2008, -6/+2You do realize that saying that is just as stupid as saying there is one. (what am I saying, of course you don't.) You atheists crack me up because you claim to be all logical about everything when, in fact, you rely just as much on faith as someone who is ultra religious.
- medalian1, on 03/14/2008, -11/+2So is it a dildo on a stick or just a stick in his ass?
