    Everyone is indeed capable of every crime,

    Supposedly decent people gave a person what they believed to be 450 volt shocks. We're all equal, apart from physically limiting factors we should all be capapble of the same evil.

    1. False: For some reason I am uncapible of pretty much doing anything wrong. For example if I tell a lie (even a small one) then some sort of a mechanism goes off in my body that makes me apologize. So if this happens to me for lying could you imagine what would happen if I tried to do something bigger?? Now again this is only me however there are probably others out there that have things like this that are worse then me.

    2. True I'll give you an example If a person was bullying you allot what are your choices of dealing with them.

    2a. You move away, this option just forced you to give up the life style you have created where you are so you are some what damned.

    2b. Do nothing and keep getting bullied; obvious damned

    2c. Kill them or do something like that. Even if you get away with it, it will still be on your contious the rest of your life. Even if you get somebody else to scare the bully you will have to rely on that person to protect you and stand up for you any time a bully comes around (damned)

    2d. last, but not least stand up for yourself. You will most likely get your *** kicked and the bullying will continue. If you win he/she might press charges. (damned)

    3. false There are so many people in this world that have up some major walls. These walls can be very mean walls. So this one is an obvious false due to these people. However these people can be the nicest people ever once you get past thier walls.

    1. True

    2. False

    3. Some True Some False...depends on person's idea

    False. On all three. #1 Some people are too spiritually advanced to commit every crime. #2 You are never damned unless you damn yourself. And #3 Some people are nice in nature, and it is your own negativity that brings out their ugliness.

    Nobody can back it up with facts because to do that Bush would have to let a team of independent specialists conduct a real investigation into 9/11. Only then can anyone decide for themselves whether Bush is a war criminal but I tell you if I were Bush and I was innocent I would have made sure that the first 9/11 commission were 100% independent of government and would have made sure no question about 9/11 was left unanswered.

    1. Figuratively, true. Literally, false. A quadriplegic will never perform a hit and run.

    2. True sometimes

    3. False

    1. True - put into a position with the given situation and circumstances everyone can be driven into it.

    2. Dunno

    3. True - people are usually nicer when you meet them cause they show their best attributes firstly. It's only when someone is comfortable around you then they let their guard down and you see exactly what their true feelings, thoughts are.

    1. I don't think that red-headed women over 75 are capable of pedophilia.

    2. Not true. If you pull your teeth out, you will hurt. - If you do not pull your teeth out, you can immediately eat steak.

    3. Not true. Some people are Xenophobes... Some people are mean drunks. You may meet them while they're drunk and they'll be mean to you - but if you hang around them and get to know them, they become nice - that's called co-dependency!

    True. Man is inherently evil and selfish...therefore is capable of every crime. But just because we are capable does not mean that we have to give in to living that way.
