Sir Malbestein

in films mostly, where they have characters talk while playing tennis or doing some other pointless activity to distract you from how boring the dialogue is?

What are some examples of situations that SUPPORT censorship. Also some that support free speech. As many as you can think of. Thanks chaps.

Or where can i find this information

I need to know the number of estimated deaths from the great purge, Sergey Kirov, Moscow trials, and the purges in Mongolia and also from the famines attributed to his rule respectively. I know this infromation is out there somewhere.

The more categorized the information the better (I. e. how many were say other party members or the nationalities of the decedents.) but anything will help.

Thanks.

I recently asked a question pertaining to the anti-prostitution (anti freedom) sentiment of some feminists who claim that industires like these exploit women. (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AshOt...

One of the responses was this:

No woman WANTS to become a prostitute. Men want casual sex and are ready to pay for it, so for women this is the only choice they have when therez nthin else. Of course its exploitation

How is this women being exploited? To me at least, it would seem like the women are exploiting men's desire for casual sex in order to make money.

It seems to me that modern feminism has no real qualms with women's legal rights anymore. Their real target seems to be the mindset of men and even other women who don't view the world through feminist goggles. Some extreme threads of feminism want to reverse the political power roles, as if men being in authoritarian positions were ever the problem (the authoritarian positions themselves were the problem. The terms female and despotic are not mutually exclusive.) How is this at all 'women's struggle for equal opportunity?'

But what I really don't understand is feminists opposed to prostitution and pornography.

They claim that these industries are exploiting women. Granted, some girls are coerced into becoming prostitutes,(which, when you think about it is true for doctors, or any other profession.) but most aren't, and surly legalization and legitimization of prostitution would be the solution to this.

The idea that pornography 'eroticizes the domination, humiliation, and coercion of women, and reinforces sexual and cultural attitudes that are complicit in rape and sexual harassment', while absurd and unfounded in its own right, is no reason to push for legislation to ban it. I don't believe many of the anti-porn feminist actually believe this. I think they just want to outlaw behavior that they see as giving them, as women, a bad name. This collectivist type of thinking is laughable at best and despicable at worst. You are an individual before you are any sex.

The attempt to ban pornography and prostitution based on these pretenses is no less dishonest and reprehensible as people trying to pass laws against violent video games due to their alleged behavioral affects.

There is no real anti-porn or anti-prostitution movement, there is only an anti-freedom movement. Modern feminism is nearly the antithesis of the original brand of feminism, which pushed for equal rights and liberty. The label seems to have been perverted by disturbingly selfish women into what it is today. And they didn't even have the decency to change feminism's name to what they have made it; Fascism.

Thank you.

'Cause Unless the dream is accompanied with intense emotions, i have to assume it's meaningless. Some people think dreams are some kind of metaphors for our subconsciousness, but based on my own droll, ambiguous and utterly ridiculous dreams, any meaning behind dreams is so deluded and contrived that any insight into my baser drives and feelings wouldn't even be worth finding. Why do you believe dreams have meaning? What evidence supports this?

I don't expect to get it published or anything and it's probably going to be somewhat mediocre, but how many pages do you think an dedicated individual could write in one weekend?

Learning.

What have i learned?

I have learned that although I learn

I repeat my mistakes time and time again

I follow the same roads.

They lead somewhere good

But i can't make the journey.

Maybe I need to learn to drive.

I have learned self discipline.

I do things in spite of myself

In the hopes that I will no longer be myself.

Freewill it would seem.

Truth. What is true?

When I think about the things I encounter everyday

The sun. The smiles. The music.

They bring me comfort. Peace.

But they are illusions.

Fading away the instant they're gone.

As if a dream upon waking.

Darkness is the truth.

The cold is truth.

Silence is truth.

We are born of the truth

And we shall return to it.

Humans are far too complex to be understood by mere humans.

A lot of people act like they need friends. I have more friends than i know what to do with but i don't think people need friends. Friends allow you not to sit in a room alone, but you'd be surprised how much good sitting in a room alone can do a man.

What was the first multicellular organism like and how did it diverge from unicellular ones?

It's getting on my nerves. Spaghetti is a far superior food stuff, and apart from being pastas, they're nothing alike. WHEN SOMEONE OFFERS TO MAKE ME SPAGHETTI I EXPECT JUST THAT. NOT NOODLY CYLINDERS OF DISAPPOINTMENT

It don't expect it to be infallible, I just want to know how theists generally explain evil being generated from immaculacy.

The biggest cynics must then be the greatest dreamers.

**** Vista. some how i disabled my speakers and I'm trying to get them back, so i go to device manager and it has that little shield thing. My account is an administrator, I've checked and made sure but nothing comes up when i click on device manager. I right click it and there's not even the option to run as administrator.
