Agree

My hair is living then right? so if i cut my hair am I aborting thousands of living things? Don't twist it experts. You are taking something that will live on its own, and you kill it. My cells don't turn into a human on their own. They die everyday and fall of my skin everytime I take a shower. Do you take a shower and your baby in your stomach dies? no! you make the choice to kill that baby. Killing is murder, its wrong.

Is free will an illusion?
Disagree

you have free will. you never do anything in your life that you don't have the choice to do. You don't have to breathe if you don't want to. but you choose to. You don't have to read this comment if you don't want to, but you choose to. You have the will to fight back or the will to surrender. If a teacher tells you to sit down, regardless of the consequences, you still have the will to obey or disobey.

Were divorce rates in the 1950s lower because marriages were happier?
Agree

Look at the divorce rates.. but more importantly look at the rates of people having sex before marriage. If you had sex with 30 girls before you met your wife then you'd prolly get divorced too. Blame it on women and men being unhappy but being forced to stay married.. sorry don't buy that opinion. I buy the opinion that people today don't know love if it hit them on the face. People today have sex like rabbits, and are torn.
If you only ate vanilla ice cream your whole life, what would your favorite ice cream be? Vanilla. What if you ate baskin robins ice cream 31 flavors. what would your favorite be then? Chocolate? no maybe vanilla this week. how about chocolate AND vanilla, and strawberry. Maybe we need toppings. Of course people are unhappy with marriage. They bond sexually within the first 3 weeks of dating and then they wonder why 3 years later the husband / wife turned into a horrible person. If you dated a guy / girl for 1 or 2 years and didn't sleep together you would have a much better idea of why you loved them. if you have sex in 3 weeks you are emotinally bonded without knowing who or what they really are. and look, right around the time of the 1970's when free love was rampart.. look at the divorce rate skyrocket. http://www.bsos.umd.edu/socy/vanneman/socy441/trends/divorce.html |
