 I hate morality systems in games. They are almost always complete and utter garbage, especially the Mass Effect one which is tied to persuasion for some bizarre reason.

I also hate any christian  church that isn't catholic, even though I'm an atheist. Don't ask why, I have no idea

I think zoophilia/bestiality is far from wrong; consent is clearer in other animals, because they don't feel the need to avoid the social pressure to have sex. Plus, they won't hesitate to scratch and kick and bite if you do something that don't like.

I don't think growing up on the Internet is a good thing.

I grew up on the Internet and let's just say I was exposed to a few stuff I shouldn't have seen throughout my childhood.

Computers are cool... but is it wrong if I wanted my child not to access the Web until, like, I don't know, 13?

In all honestly, I feel kind of the opposite ^^' I've been using the internet unsupervised since I was at least 10. Maybe I was just pretty responsible and knew what things I shouldn't do I guess. It's helped me learn a lot of things I wouldn't know otherwise, develop my interests and find new ones, and connect to other people. Sure, there's lots of bad stuff too(though I don't consider 'adult material' to be "bad" unless it's illegal or you're underage viewing it tbh) but the key is knowing how to deal with or avoid such stuff.

[mclovin]

Yeah. I guess I wasn't looking at the positives. I learned how to draw from the Internet and through artists on the web as well. Internet help me meet new people and fandoms growing up. I was happy kid growing up with it... maybe I'm just worried about the dependency on it... or an addiction to it.

Like how too much internet can actually get someone addicted?

[★Amethyst★]

That's true. Too much of just about anything isn't good. I use the internet/computers to be productive, but I also have to be careful not to get distracted and waste my time. Especially since laziness is one of my big issues ^^'

It bugs me when people assume they can't be sexist/racist/whatever to people because they're part of some arbitrary "oppressed" class(which can also be a little insulting to those classes by assuming they're automatically oppressed or weak). Like, even if according to you you're not being those terms, what kind of a**hole ARE you being?

[Heavy304]

The ME morality system isn't too bad. I like that it's tied to a persuasion system. If you're known to be a well-respected example of virtue you have an easier time inspiring people to do the same. Same thing goes if you're an enormous dick everyone hates, it just comes easier to piss people off and scare them.
But I still don't like how opposed the system is. You are either an LG Paladin, or the greatest a-hole the galaxy has ever seen. Can't I be something in between and STILL get the best abilities and persuade people?

Reharding christian churches, I actually like the catholic the least. It is tied so mach to formal practices which aren't in the scriptures. Just because some Pope a couple of centuries ago said so. They believe in everything the Pope says, while he is still a person and can make mistakes. That's just stupid.

For a Rpg, it severely limits roleplaying. Why they didn't just make it a speech skill. It's not like this game can't have you making character personalities. Hell, I'm playing the game completely disregarding it and I'm enjoying it more. Is the ME the worst one? No, it being tied to speech is annoying but there are worse. Like Fallout. I'm not even going to talk about it to be completely honest, but it's one thing I'm glad it's gone.

I'm against the Catholic hierarchy, not saying otherwise, but the churches are beautiful. Everything piece of art I think it's beautiful, the paintings, statues and architecture. Even if it was for the most part built by the corruption, it's outstanding. Other churches, at least in Brazil, look like warehouses more than anything. Guess I'm too much of a picky snob

I think zoophilia/bestiality is far from wrong; consent is clearer in other animals, because they don't feel the need to avoid the social pressure to have sex. Plus, they won't hesitate to scratch and kick and bite if you do something that don't like.

This so much.

The issue is there is NO WAY to prove it. While you could argue its obvious, said animals can be "trained" (Read, abused) to do things they do not wish to do, and if there IS abuse happening the proper protections are not in place, and indeed, cannot exist efficiently. This is without discussing the health concerns (Both mental and physical) for both members of such a relationship.

In addition sexual relations require equal power between both members except where power is given up willingly, in the case of animal/human relations, this is impossible. This opens up the possibility of the relationship becoming abusive, possibly even by accident, and in such an instance, there would be no way of verifying if this has or hadn't happened within a relationship.

 It all comes down to consent, and an animal CANNOT give consent that would pass in a court of law. "They looked like they wanted it" is not acceptable, and probably also a quote from several convicted rapists, and before you say "Common sense" let me point you back to the first paragraph, how do you prove the dog was not abused to make it more willing for sex?

...

Oh, and of course it's an animal your trying to **censor**... that is kinda gross

((Yes, I know that last argument is super weak, and not even a real argument, but it had to be said.))

I like metal, but I don't think Slayer is that great...

One I've gotten into debates with a lot of people over;

I don't think children under the age of 3 (or 4 depending) should be allowed in most restaurants and movie theaters. Yeah, bring your kid to McDonalds, whatever. They usually have playplaces for them.

But if I'm going into, say, a movie theater, or an actual decent eating establishment, I don't want it marred by the presence of screaming/whining/crying children. I hate it when people bring like a 2 year old to the movies at 9PM, it starts screeching like crazy, and then it consists of them yelling at the child to stop while people are trying to watch the movie.

How do you prove a human wasn't abused to "make it more willing for sex"? You talk about animals like they have no minds of their own.

If you love animals, you'd pay attention to their health and happiness. If you don't love animals, this subject is irrelevant to you because you wouldn't want to partake in these sorts of activities in the first place.


And that did not have to be said; what you find attractive does not dictate right and wrong.  You're just being rude.

[HollowOfHaze]

I will just go ahead and state, for my own sake, that even if my cat tells me it wants to get f*cked, I won't be complying.


It's still hip to f*ck bees.
