Most christians I’ve discussed this with says, “if there wasn’t a god…I could do anything and not be punished”. Yet their belief allows them to do just that; as long as you believe in the “Lord Jesus Christ” all your sins are forgiven. How does this help create a more moral society? Furthermore, this might help explain how some of the greatest atrocities have been committed by God loving”christians”.
Your views please.
Do you agree or disagree?

They have found ways to contaminate or negatively alter anything worth eating. They sprayed the fruits and vegetables to death, they injected or made carnivores out of vegetarian animals, many people are alergic to milk and they have bleached the breads. I go to the store and the shelves are filled with salt, oil and sugar loaded crap with zero nutritional value. They claim to have dietary benefits, but if you look at the meal replacers, the first ingredients are sugar, corn syrup and water. It was so much easier to find good food in Japan, but don’t be fooled…they have become fast food happy, too. Without moving out to a farm and making all your foods from scratch, is there a way to live healthy in a unhealthy society?
I don’t know what they eat in the rural outskirts of Tanzania, gudrun077, but the difference between them and us, probably, is that they don’t have a choice. We have a choice and we keep on choosing the road that leads to unhealthiness only for the short term pleasure. Since industry cares more about money than the consumer, is it possible to live healthy and cheap…or is that an oxymoron?

Say the planet wasn’t doomed and humans existed on earth forever, living similarly to the way we do now. Which animal (s) do you think would eventually evolve and take place in human society in some form? To an extent rats and pigeons etc do have as they live in cities but I mean actually developing communication skills etc?
Diego I don’t think any animals, even apes, can evolve exactly as humans have with opposable thumbs and ‘voicebox’ necessary for complex speech patterns. Animals have fairly complicated means of communication anyway, that has been proven, it is more a question of how we can understand and interract better with them

It seems the more of capitalism and materialism consumerism I see, the more I want to drop out and leave society behind. I would imagine that there are a few folks out there who are sulf sufficient and they could probably pull it off with few problems. I don’t even view it as a bad way of living. There is nothing wrong with getting back to nature. Thoreau would probably approve!

Are people contributing more to society for being well-rounded or less because people aren’t learning as much as they can in each field they are working in?

After all, we are free, right? Free to choose? In a free society, wouldn’t the decision whether to have health insurance be left to a free individual and not on mommy government as Comrade Obama wants it to be?

What functions might pornography fill for our society? How has this changed over the last 50 years? What used to fulfill these functions or are the functions themselves new?
