A debate, Heart or Brain?
IMO, when you say heart, your not refering to the physical heart, but your own being, the pure essence in which one may call a Spirit. In that case, the heart is the only thing that can love, and has its effects on the brain. Therefor in that sense, I would say the heart.

What if Iran attacked U.S?
Bush is ready to go to War with Iran because his election is soon over and wants to get in there before our troops are set to pull out. Its been reported on the news that he annouced we must attack Iran for the security of the world and nation. Also, a new news report stated that Iran has a time limit to respond to their possible WMD's and their "ambitions", or we could just simpley invade on its neglect to respond. He is literally doing EVERYTHING in his power to get a good dam excuse to go to war with these people and I hope the American people don't buy into this BS. We already made a mistake with Iraq, don't make one now with Iran. Intresting to know that Iraq was the top terrorist funding nation back in 2001, and now its Iran in 2008. Please, what more lies will you continue to feed the population so you can justify yourself attacking them. 70% of America already disapprove of his leadership.

America Explained
Hmm but if you think about it.. Gold in general is worthless to society, almost like showing off "your new ipod" to your friends, so to speak. Yet we have been trained in the mind to always believe gold was "valuble". Therefor, when money was created and backed by Gold, we valued money because it was backed by something already pre-set in our minds that was valuble, the gold. Therefor its a double standard. We believe money is valuble and it is not, the US Dollar is nothing more than a piece of paper. We believe Gold is valuble, but it is not, its just a shiny piece of rock. However, there has to be some form of limit based on real physical material, otherwise, you grant someone infinite access to all supplies that are purchasable, which is basically what the US has done. In the end, its all what " we think " is valuble that is valuble.

Officers told her 'rights' were 'only in the movies'
You guys say "oh this is terrible".. or perhaps "uh oh, they violated the rights of the constitution". Well guess what. Nothing is being done about it. Yes, nothing. Nothing is being done about it from the government or you as a individual or me. Therefor, what does it matter that you think its against the rules if one can get away from it. "The consitution is nothing but a dam piece of paper" - George Washington

America Explained
I am curious tho on 1 thing. Why is gold valuble? What can gold do for you? Its just a big piece of shiny rock. Now oil, that is definatly gold. It can support your armies and power your economy. But why is gold, which is probably useless in todays society, have any real value? America is on a decline due to the fact that it has infinite purchasing power. Sad to say, but the money we work for over here in America is useless and as a good as monopoly money Oh yeah, this was in Yahoo news today "Bush says Iran threat to world security" LOL!!

Gay's can't donate blood-it's the law
Please don't turn this into another discrimating thread. Really, the worlds pretty much so messed up now its not even funny. Discuss as you like, but the end result is always going to be the same, and the infinite cycle of the human element and its "concerns" with discrimination will never end.

my school had a walk out
"some mom found her underage daughter drunk one day, and decided to check her FaceBook profile, where she saw over 200 pics of kids drinking alcholic beverages. She put them on a disk and sent it to our dean. " My question is this. Where was the kids who where drunk? The school or on their own personal properties? I am not saying that they should be drinking, but saying they cannot earn a education from something they did OUTSIDE school is pure BS.

U.S bankrupt in T minus....
I already have a plan. Get a good business going, then take 50% of my profit and convert it into European Dollars stashed away in a Euro bank. That way if America ever did hit the big one, I won't be broke.

What if Iran attacked U.S?
It seems that the media is proposing that Irani speed boats are threating USA warships about blowing themselfs up. Bush has commented that serious consequences will take place if this happens. Now we already know what Bush and his Administration wants. He wants a dam good excuse to march into Iran for Oil and to make us pay heavy money for it. So my question is, what IF Iran openly and admittedly attacked US troops. Would you want us to Invade Iran? If so, how much longer would the war last? How would oil prices go? Discuss.

Homosexuality - Gay Bashing?
I do not hate gay people, but I hate what they do with a passion. We are not animals, we do not work on instincts. Even if your are genticially enycripted to like dogs or sheep, you still have a choice in the matter. If gays do not have a choice, why can they choose "which boy" they want. Why can they show constraint rather than impulse. I'm surpised indeed. People have always debated on Love and Lust, and have confirmed that lust is just a mere "feeling" and that the overall purpose in life is to love the girl, not to lust for her. Being homosexual, IMO, is just lusting after the same gender. People honestly think Homosexuality acts are "okay" yet its a unnatural thing. It must of taken ALOT of violence, porno, and propaganda for you to believe that. How many guys do you see hating on girls when the girl wants to hit on them? None because its natural and they like it. Do it with the same gender and you got a problem, hence, all the guys bashing gay thing. Really, you can say "your born with it, you have no choice, its just a way of life", I really don't care. The act itself will always be disgusting and unnatural to life. Hell, if everyone went Gay, it would be mass suicide. I know I probably won't convince anyone and get alot of negative e-points for what I say, but I really could care less when it comes to serious stuff like this. Its so sad that people are so de-sensitized today that serious issues are nothing more than "preferances". Why the hell do you think everyone is saying something is wrong with the world? Its certainly not because were living the right kinda life, or there wouldn't be as many complaints. Really, I don't see how you can love anyone of the same sex gender in that kind of way. Either way, please don't try to argue with me, because i'm pretty stuck in stone in this way of thinking. Really.. you have to be brainwashed... to death to think its okay. I think about half the people say "its okay" just so they think they love that person, but you can still hate the act and love the person. As always, I speak against homosexuality.

Boy Scout saves life of Maldives President
Its a shame they didn't give the boy more media coverage. They basically just said "he stoped the knife, was cut, complained about not moving his fingers, and went to the hospital" Woop de doo, thank you media for not showing any honor to the boy who saved a mans life. Either way, I congradulate the boy and hope he gets a medal or something :)

Life Is Too Fragile To Be Wasted
I"m sorry for your loss. Some people, even admist friends still have doubts, pains, anger, saying "why do they just sit like that, chatting with 1 another, not aware of my pain inside? Why don't they care?" while he sits emotionally still so no one knows he is in pain. Alot of people hide their pain, yet we want people to care about us. Its very hard to describe.

Iowa/New Hampshire Caucus
I believe what makes Obama appealing out of all the canidates and the best one at that, is because he is honest and he has the right heart/motivation. Here some stuff he talks about: "The time has come, for a president to be honest about the choices and the challenges we face." "A president who won't tell you what you want to hear but what you need to know" "I will be a president who harnesses the inguenuity of farmers and scientists and entrepreneurs to free this nation from the teariny of oil once and for all." America uses 25 Million Barrels per day and houses a world population of 5%. While the worlds total population of oil comsuption per day is 84 Million, including America. That means 1/20th of the worlds population is dependent on 30%. The other 70% go to the rest of the 19/20. America is heavilly dependent on oil and I hope technology will make oil's worth fruitless. Obama has a vision for America.. a great America. Everyone else, is just fore play.

Iowa/New Hampshire Caucus
I will be voting for Obama. There really is nothing I need to say about him, he speaks for himself. Just go look at his video's, I agree pretty much 99% of what he talks about. America needs change, that is 1 thing, every American can agree on!

Terrorism
It's ironic that the United States was also after money and oil, and that they have killed THOUSANDS of innocent Iraqi lives as well. Could you elaborate? The invasion of Iraq was a mistake that the entire world now must suffer from. :( Not to get off topic, but here's a intresting thought. Many people say the government attacked Iraq for oil which the oil business you can accumulate ALOT of wealth FAST. American alone uses 25,000,000 barrels of oil a DAY. I tried to visually see this in the Crysis editor by place 25 million barrels but it only let me get up to 600,000+ objects, but let me tell you, THATS ALOT OF OIL AT STAKE. So then with the government lieing to us, attempting us to believe Iraq has WMD's, terrorists, and all other sorts of things going on, their hidden agenda was to capture the oil. So why do 9/11 consparicy's(sp?) get shot down? Yes, it does sound dumb to attack your own buildings, but like someone else said. More people die in the streets due to proverty and crime in America in a single day than 9/11.

I killed myself
I believe everyone has thought of sucide atleast once in their life time. But either way you go, its always going to "hurt", and its that pain that stops most people with going through it. Its kind of ironic, the pains of life makes you want to kill yoruself, then you find out sucide is painful and don't do it, lol. Good to hear you can get on with your life.

'Gay' and games
The only problem is, IRL if you get knifed, you can't say "thats gay", lol. Gay in video game terms = suck.

Is God real post your thoughts!
If there was a all loving God.. why would he allow such hate, proverty, crime, disease, death, and despair? So I would choose not to believe in God and say he does not exist because of that. But wait.. if God doesn't exist.. then who's fault is it for all the hate, proverty, crime, disease, death and despair? Ours, if you believe in no God. Therefor, God can still exist and be all loving, while we would like to say "you don't love us because you don't protect us from ourselfs". Its not God at all.. its always us.

How bad can gaming companies go?
Any sort of bots were not a serious problem to the game. I'm sorry but all this time they have been chasing down this problem and really don't care what kind of causalities happen along the way. See, there are companies, such as jagex, that really only care about one thing. Some companies care about profits, in Jagex's case they really only care at this point about their revenue and getting these gold farmers out of the game no matter the cost. They don't give a damn on what part of the community they hurt. Defender, not every company is like this. To be honest you are less likely to see this behavior with many 'good' companies such as the ones I listed and many many more. There are a lot of game companies out there still to bring and devliver an enjoyable experience. Yes, they need to make money doing it. However just like how an artist such as a musician makes money they make it by creating enjoyable content that others will like. Don't let a few bad companies get in your way of thinking every gaming company is 'evil'. And if you're currious llamster, I am the same Nadril on MMORPG.com as here Perhaps your right, but I always seem to see more towards how they screw people over than deliever a enjoyable experience. Like Crysis for example, the entire game was awesome but my anticipation to go to the ice sphere is what I really wanted and waited for. Guess what, it doesn't happen due to the fact their making the game a 3 way fold series or Trilogy to get extra cash. I felt so ripped off from a company I thought that cared.. only to have them have only ONE ice level which was a short and quick run n gun mission. You never go back in till part 2, but the problem is, there SHOULDN'T BE a part 2. It only comes with 10 levels on single player aside from multiplayer and I waited forever to get this game. I felt kinda ripped off because I rarely seen any ice at all. Meh, I guess i'm just a negative towards companies when I always see them screw people so they can worship the dollar. Sure, getting money is 1 thing to stay afloat and perhaps some profit, but just doing it for more money is ridicolous.

How bad can gaming companies go?
No my account didn't get banned at all. Im just saying that a company would literally kick out legit players who probably even paid them money somewhere down the line for a game they enjoy can no longer play it all just because of autoers. We are talking about entire regions being IP banned, not just a few players. Patchs themselfs take literally months and thats for small bugs. I won't mention the game for obvious reasons, but if you send their customer support a ticket, they have the right to literally take a item from your charater in game if they feel you wasted their time with the ticket, and they usually take the best item too! wtf. I honestly don't believe that a majority of gaming companies care due to the fact that everytime they turn around want to change something, its always the gamer who gets the bad end of the stick for their profits, not the gamers. Like Runescape, we all have to suffer through balance trading just to get rid of autoers. Pking was literally taken out for bounty hunter. Its these kind of changes i'm talking about and the one above, that are extreeme measures to save a dollar. Not every gaming company is like this, but I believe most are. As why be a company if the goal is not the pursuit of profit? Thats what most companies have in their head.. not "how do we make the best awesome game ever.."

How bad can gaming companies go?
No i'm not from China, haha. :D USA all the way :P Its just concering though.. that 1 day some company can say "hey, I don't care if we have players who love our game and give us money, we got bigger problems, so lets just wipe everyone out from that area". I didn't know AC2 was like that, but I do know it closed down. How long did they let it go before closing? Wasn't it like a month or two? They should have been more prepared IMO. Either way, as much as a company says "they care", even gaming companies, its hard to believe because you KNOW the route a gaming company goes by the profit it makes. Its just sad that the very game the create FOR the gamer isn't FOR the gamer, its for money. I think thats why most games are bad. I mean what do you think would get a better result, the staff saying "how can we make this better?" or saying "how do we make the money line go up?".
