  1. +Rhys Oliver, "I'd say gay parents adopting a child is only a good thing" It may not be as bad as some situations, but that doesn't neccessarily make it a good thing. It's like saying it good that i only cut off a finger instead of an arm, no one can dispute that cutting off a finger is preferable to a whole arm, but neither should be preferable. So, a normal family environment should always be preferable to any other when possible, but deliberately putting children into abnormal situations when there are better options, can only be called social engineering and child abuse.

  3. MGTOW may be good and noble for you personally, but it's certainly not good and noble for all men and society. If you're MGTOW for political reasons rather than it simply being for your own self improvement, then you're not 'going your own way' for the right reasons.

  5. Ariana Grande's song 'side to side' (which is about being f*cked so hard for so long that you can't walk properly the next day) has almst a billion views. Just think about that for a moment.

  7. Yep, just observe 'civilised western man' when the shelves are empty of food. And lets be honest, does anyone really care about people that aren't in their close circle of family and friends? People feign caring because they believe it's how they're suppose to feel, but in reality we know that the world is full of too many people to actually give a damn about, and if it comes down to it, you'd smash their heads in if it meant your own survival. Even today people won't even ackowledge your existence when you walk past them, so what will it like when society collapses? I know in previous times people banded together, but that was because they all had a unified culture and religion, but not anymore, now it's utterly ruthless.

  8. @Connor Monday, I've heard this exact same argument from Marxists over the years.

  9. The Left said the statues would be placed in museums as historical artifacts, but the other day they aggressively destroyed one. Is that how you treat historical artifacts in museums? Should be burn down museums containing Nazi memorabilia? This just goes to show that the Left are fighting a culture war, they want to destroy the past so that they can control the narrative.

  11. I agree with Plato; that a society should be ruled by Philosophers. Not everyone has the time to become enlightened by the logos; it takes a great amount of dedication and sacrifice to reach that higher level of understanding.

  12. +Brandon Schleifer, So a woman can simply be replaced by another man? Then why not artificial wombs and test-tube babies? Why not promote adoption for single men? Who needs women anyway?

  13. +Vivian Smith-Smythe-Smith "Sure biologically you can't sexually reproduce but that's not a barrier in the 21st century." And that's the problem with the 21st century.

  15. Very interesting, most anti-theists i come across tend to be former-theists who are driven largely by an emotional reaction against their former faith, whereas children raised without any religion tend not to have that emotional opposition towards religion, as it's never been seen as a barrier to personal growth, therefore religion is able to be seen in a clearer light. So athiests are actually raisng a generation who will be more open to the idea of religion, ironically.

  17. +Legion1132, Witch hunts were sporadic. The English witch trials occured during and shortly after the devastating English civil war, and are quite frankly tame compared to what we read about in the Soviet union and other Communist hellholes. Also, many Christian leaders at the time were opposed to the witch-trials, questioning severly the methods used by the 'witchfinder general' in ascertaining a witch. At their worst, a religion society is better than a secular society.

  21. Because 'naming the Jew' doesn't solve the problem, it just makes you look like a Nazi to wider society. Whoever is behind the problems we face is irrelevant, we only need to make the problem go away, or make it so that it becomes impossible for the problem to ever rise again.

  28. +jelkel25, You can deviate as much as you like within a relationship (behind closed doors), just don't bring your deviations into the public sphere. I'm not saying what you can and can't do in private, i'm merely stating what is and is not intended by nature, and how it should or should not be incorporated into society. "a biological response to overpopulation" And how would that work exactly? Are you saying that nature is opposed to large groups of people? The opposite seems to be true, that nature rather likes large groups of people, afterall, almost everyone has desire for sex, even homosexuals, they're just not using their sexual tools properly because their mind is working contray to the body. Even homosexuals produce semen, so nature seems to have wanted them to procreate. And women can have many more children beyond what is currently deemed acceptable. But if you are right, then nature must be telling homosexuals not have children, which actually supports my argument, so i'm right either way. Also, how would nature determine whether our world is overpopulated? Is homosexuality the result of large cities and big populations? If so, then we wouldn't expect to find any evidence of homosexuality in the ancient world, where there we're fewer big cities and lower population levels, and yet we do. And there have always been a number of people in society who have forgone having children, for example the hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of monks in the past few thousand years, which would certainly negate the need for homosexuals to decrease the population.

  32. +Brian A, Wherever there is suffering and death, there will always be religion. Wherever there is human nature and it's flaws, there will always be religion. And wherever there is an inquiring mind asking questions, there will always be religion. Religion will outlive all of us, because human nature doesn't change.

  44. Has Peterson spoken out against the absurdity of 'gay marriage' yet?
    2
  45. +James B, It's absurd because marriage is about the procreation of children and providing stability for children. As gay people cannot have children together, or even consummate a marriage, it's make a mockery of the institution.

  46. 1. Yes it is. 2. They shouldn't be able to adopt. 3. Gay people perform sodomy. 4. I know. 5. Thanks.

  50. +Mutoh, "You know that heterosexual couples also have taken a liking to marrying "for themselves", right (the voluntarily childless ones)? Why aren't you dissing them?" First of all, i'm not 'dissing' anyone, i'm just stating the facts. The reason i don't 'diss' people who marry and don't have children is because they can have children, they can easily change their mind or have a little 'accident'. Their marriage is therefore valid. Homosexuals can never have children, even if they tried.
