Thank you Ray. I couldntve said it better myself.
And on to my reply...

Don't force your beliefs on others. People tend to not like you by doing that. Do you want Johovah's Witnesses knocking on your door telling you you must convert of face the Wrath of God?

Dually noted.
J3utton wrote:Also, for another point on what you said in that sentence, you cannot judge a whole group of people on one individual, no one person can give any group a bad name.
First impressions mean everything. Once that first impression has been established, you're branded with it forever.
J3utton wrote:A group is made up of very different individuals and when you try to categorize them as you just did, you show your ignorance.
See above.
J3utton wrote:And thirdly, If you dont believe in the capitalistic system, and you aren't a socialist, then what economic system do you believe in.... The barter system? There aren't a whole lot of other economic systems out there.
See what Ray said.
J3utton wrote:The reason I don't like you.
Uh oh--here comes the big insult..
J3utton wrote:You say things but you dont say anything intelligent.
That's because you're not abosorbing anything I've said. Stop looking at the world through your rose-colored glasses and absorb the big picture. The whole purpose of living life is to look at the big picture, and not be so narrow minded about things. What might be good for a short run will cost you drastically in the long run--only because you didn't look at the bigger picture. If you really are a programmer like you claim to be, you of all people should be aware of the bigger picture--your job could depend on it.

If I had time, I would accept this "challenge." I am however, a very busy person with a life outside of this little box on the floor, so I have to decline to your "challenge."
Good attempt though..almost made me think about what to say.
