This is pretty fucked up.

shut the fuck up man, if they dont want to be in the army they could work at subway.

OR IS THAT LIKE FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE FOR SOME REASON?
 
oh yeah it was yelping out of JOY yeah you fucking genious it was having a jolly good time getting thrown off that cliff fuckhole!
 
yes because working at subway feeds a family really well. you need to shut the fuck up, you clearly know no one in the military because for a lot of people it is their best option to be able to support a good life.

is throwing a dog off a cliff fucked up? yes very.

is joining the military fucked up? absolutely not.

i know its very hard for you to understand because you live an easy life where your parents are able to have good jobs and support you, but if your father said "ok here are my options, i can make minumum wage and go on welfare just to scrape by to feed you, or i can work for the military and make enough money to buy you nice things and allow you to have a good life and go to college" you gonna tell him to go to subway buddy? no. shut the fuck up.
 
How the fuck does that follow?

And when exactly did man decide to no longer be a process of nature? monkey- monkey - monkey, caveman oh now i'm not part of nature? sounds strangely like homosexuals choosing to be gay...

I think it's very possible that other organisms have language and communications just the same as we do, however can you immagine how impossible it would be for us to start to comprehend the experiances of some other creature that has emensly different perceptions of the world in order for us to make any sense of what they might be communicating?

untill we no longer need our bodies, we are part of nature, not above it.
 
you say "animals do not need to reason in their behavior"

dude you are so wrong its not even funny, are you trying to say humans are the only ones to have the ability to reason?

your being so fucking stupid im sorry, but your just being fucking retarded right now

oh because we can type?

oh because we can talk?

oh because we can look upon ourselves from a 3rd person perspective?

different animals can do all these things so try again jackass
 
wrong jackass there actually are other ways to support your family outside of the military, ones that dont use up tax payer dollars to pay people to kill people in some far away country
 
and thats the govornments fault for PAYING MONEY FOR PEOPLE TO GO ON MURDER VACATIONS IN THE MIDDLE EAST
 
I support the troops but it's shit like this and what is going on at Abu Ghraib that makes me really question what is going on with our troops.
 
No Way! Thanks so much for the insight, cause I always though my dogs could talk! You're really coming up with some enlightening ideas
 
theres an extended version that shows them walkin up to the puppy, all its legs broken, teeth shattered and whimpering. then they bust out some allah jokes and bury it alive... then run it over with a hummer... 3 times.
 
hippies have more insight then you do in life

they know how to keep a good conversation going, and they also have good argumentative points
 
i'll agree with your argument that animals can have cognitive communication, but parrots is a really weak argument.

whales, elephants, dolphins, could in my mind have a means of communicating in some sort of "language"

Lucy the gorrilla learned sign language

but parrots mimicking the human voice isn't the best argument
 
So I notice no one has been able to address this with any sort of counter argument...

Other than "That will never happen!"

 
i was just using parrots to show that talking is nothing in itself

humans communicate, and so do alot of other species
 
This thread is insane. If real its a sick realization of the most vile and repugnant side of human nature. If fake it is a sick and cruel joke.

I swear that some of you kids just argue on this site because you can hide your face behind the soothing glow of your computer monitor. How could any of you condone any part of that video.

I am ashamed.
 
That video is messed up, but if it really disturbs you that much you should turn into a vegetarian.

Also, people matter more than animals. Do you think to an animal people matter more than other animals? Unless you said yes, than the "alien civilization" thing holds no water.
 
I'm not really against you in your point of view... but just so you have a response...

i don't think it really would matter whether we said it was right or wrong, we'd be enslaved/eaten/killed either way
 
jesus christ. if those are the types of people fighting for our country right now, we might as well bomb ourselves.
 
oh yeah? give me an example, you stupid shit...and if you say "get a college education and get a good job" im going to kick you in your balls, i swear to god. give me an example of a job that ANY healthy person can get without extra education that can support a family of lets say.....3 to a degree that they can feed their family, allow them to live in a decent home, maybe send the kids to college with a start on some money. tell me a job. again, if you say work at subway for minimum wage im going to kick you in the nuts.
 
There is often gray areas in life. The difference between between killing a cow for sustenance and throwing a puppy off of a cliff is not a gray area. It is a bold and clear statement of heartless cruel behavior.

If you can not make this distinction then I fear for the future.

Anywhere in the oil field

Construction

There are countless jobs.

And how are you going to support a family of three on the minimal salary that the army pays not to mention you will be living thousand of miles away. If you go career it is possible but common it is not the only solution.

There are also trade schools where you can learn to become anything from a airline mechanic to an electrician that are 1 or two year programs.

 
Nature is a concept with a vaste amount of human history attached to it. I don't actually buy into human evolution, but if i did, human beings became separate from nature when they saw that there is an "it" versus an "us".

Culture, which is also an extremely difficult concept to define, serves as the counter balance to nature; that which human beings have created as outside of the natural realm, that changes and alters nature itself. Human beings have within their philosophy and their pursuit of knowledge for the sake of it opted out of simply being instinctual products of nature.

The sheer fact that we can ARGUE whether or not we are merely a part of Nature IMPLIES that we understand an "us" versus "it" vis a vis nature. You can't argue with me that we are mere instinctual animals because the argument never would have come up if we were. We would simply live, and learn, but not understand that we are learning, or change what we want to learn, or go beyond what we know for the sake of intellectual pursuit.

To Yauch: look into something called "Philosophy", then get back to me that we haven't gone beyond mere existence in nature. By the way, you're proving my point by arguing with me that we are outside of nature's confines, because you assume that a logical argument somehow means more to me than simply letting me live my instinctual life.
 
yo bud is jus a dog relax. dey got like millions of dem muthafuckaz out dere. if you had hella rabits or raccooons you be throwin dat shit too.
 
haha bitch please! i just smoked a fat blunt you think tha last shit i would do is look at your dumb shit.
 
do construction until you are too old to do it anymore, then what? military careers=good civilian/desk jobs once you work your way through the rankings. oh and excuse me i didnt realize that everyone can just up and be an oil millionaire. and how might a poor person pay for a one or two year program? get a loan and deal with all that. look all im saying is that the military is the best option for some people, they didnt all sign up to fight a war. dont be a knitpicking asshole.
 
No. Blackwater is a private group of "security agents" that happened to be former US military. They are nothing more than mercenaries for hire.
 
A life is a life, its a miracle in its own, to be disrespected and fucked like that is just rediculous, which is why sometimes i would be stoked to just be a steezy ass sloth and sloth around towns and terrorize towns with my sloth claws
 
I think it comes down to sentience. You really cannot say that any other species on this planet can cognitively understand the meaning of 'I'. Sure, you can get animals to learn words, even make grammatically correct phrases, but in all those cases, theres something huge missing. Theres definitely a large gulf between a human and an ape, something fundamental that sent our species shooting off in a distinct and intelligent direction.

2001; I love you.
 
first: nature is a fact that has the concept of human history attached to it for a wee-little amount of time.

just because we are making utterances about how we believe ourselves to be above nature doesn't automaticlly make it so. Your implication means that if we began to argue that we are above morality then we'd transend above it. You also asusme that because we've made this "distinction" of us and it, that it's truth, and that we understand nature; neither of this is fact.

i think your faiure to embrace evolution is a problem, especialy if you're making claims that "we understand nature"

Why can't i argue with you that we are instinctual animals at the core? It does not follow that every thought you have is a product of instinct, but at the core, when you take away our large brain complexes we are still animals. If you watch different groups of monkeys, and start to compair them i think it is fair to say that primates are sexual animals, driven by sex to do the things we do. (i suppose sex is always the driving factor under the "theory of evolution" but atleast with us the development of the female orgasm plays a key role in whatever concept you've derrived as us above nature.)

I think the human female orgasm facilitates social relations in one or more ways, including preventing conflicts and aiding reconciliation after conflicts, regulating tension, solidifying same sex and different sex alliances, and expressing social status. These are the functions that sexual pleasure seems in general to serve in everyone’s favorite super-sexy-love-primate, the bonobo (see Huhmann and Fruth 2000) all this we have culture we have intelect is all a byproduct of sex, especialy when it's not a purely male dominant state

now can we get some monkey love going on in this place? so much hate going around right now a little lovin can't hurt

Oh fuck you.

Are you so ignorant as to think that no animal cruelty goes on in the meat packaging plants? What about the testing at the IAMs dog food plants? Do you know how chickens are killed at the packaging plants?

Open your eyes you ignorant cock, you are the reason we should fear for the future.
 
^^ Those are chimps. Chimps aren't monkeys, they are apes. Therefore, you'd want some ape loving in here.
 
catch me on a technicality, how about "monkey" as a non biological term for all primates regardless
 
And not all monkeys and apes are sexual beings, mostly just the bonobos, for they have been shown to be really the only other creature beside the dolphin who use sex as a social outlet, a source of pleasure, and a stress reliever. Its crazy cuz everything else just uses sex to reproduce. The bonobos put that pussy on a pedestal though. They also have homosexual relationships (penis fencing) but i wont get into that.
 
As usual immature high school students such as your self revert to name calling. Cows are raised for the explicit purpose of human consumption. They are killed quickly by a 3 inch metal spike into the brain stem. Chickens are killed by removing their heads.

Dogs on the other hand are raised to be mans companion. Lovingly bread from wild wolves into the most diverse animal on the planet.

By your logic smashing a spider and throwing a puppy off a cliff are the same thing.

There are cruel people all over the world but what that man did for fun does not equate to a cattle farmer producing beef in my mind.

If you feel differently you are entitled to your opinion but there is no need to call me ignorant when in all probability I am far more intelgent, well read, and Compassionate than yourself.
 
Bonobos may be special in that they put on the barry white before getting down, but to say that other primates arn't sexual is misleading... isn't the male baboon coming in being dominant over another male and "raping" "his females" a social process of sexuality?

maybe i'm just misinformed/mislead/wrong
 
gahh, i took a primatology class last semester and learned all about this but i forgot in over christmas break. I do remember the bonobos being the only ones to use sex for stress relief and kinship bonding.
