Law and Order! Or a good place for a friendly argument

[Beth_Applemine]

Hi there! I'm new

Bunnies are absolutely, without a doubt the cutest wittle things ever!

-Has doubts-

How can you argue with this?

In case you couldn't tell, I'm biased. XD

[Beckendorf_Direscope]

Squirrels are a close second for best thing in nature.

[Danyul_Braziervest]

NOPE it's the elephants that take the prize for being the cutest/noblest creatures!!

[Rex_Blackdash]

Uhm, you're mistaken, ma'am.

_ insert medal for watching entire ten minute montage of bunnies being cute here _

Yeah bunnies are cute, but for me, athletic daredevil/ acorn-chomping squirrels win.

I also think chipmunks are one of the cutest animals. I mean, look:

And they make this noise, which for some reason I really like:

[Danyul_Braziervest]

The chipmunks squeaks were too high for my poor ears to hear

But they are very cute. Why do you think Alvin and his brothers got so popular? @Rex_Blackdash Name a bunny character cuter than them (and no I don't think Bugs Bunny is that cute)

[Rex_Blackdash]

I never really thought Alvin and the Chipmunks were cute, but to each his own.

And your question: there aren't many bunny characters, at least in the stuff I watch, so I can't really answer that. But bunnies in general are just so cute. I rest my case.

Okay... Since returning from film camp I have decided that unless you have had been put into the shoes of the crew, you shouldn't criticize a film.

(IDEK why I posted that past post here...)

Who else is glad that they don't allow the reading of the Bible in public schools anymore?

[Beth_Applemine]

They don't allow it... at all?

[Eerie_Coppernight]

I'm curious, why would that be a good thing?

[Sierepica_Fuzzywalker]

I am not glad of this. Are they actually making it so students can’t bring Bibles to school and read them? What happened to the First Amendment? Is the Bible “hate speech” now?

Source please.

I'm curious, why would that be a good thing?

My sarcasm meter is reading the likelihood of exasperated sarcasm at 65% as regards Mr. Jayhawk’s post.

My sarcasm meter is reading the likelihood of exasperated sarcasm at 65% as regards Mr. Jayhawk’s post.

Judging by the fact that he runs the Bible reading topic, I’d rate it 100% sarcasm.

[Jayhawk_Greencape]

Actually, it's 0% sarcasm. :0)

The fact that they don't allow the reading of the bible in schools (At least a teacher doing so), I think, is a good thing, because that means that they are neutral towards religion, and while that may seem bad initially, them doing that is essentially letting us do whatever we want with religion. (Except force it on others, and let's be real, if they read the Quran every morning at your school, I'm sure you and some others I won't care to name wouldn't be happy.)

@Sierepica_Fuzzywalker:
[https://www.mtsu.edu/first-amendment/article/671/pfeiffer-v-board-of-education]
One of several. This is technically part of the first amendment.

First, while it is constitutional for public schools to teach children about religion, it is unconstitutional to use public schools to advance particular religious beliefs. Among the important statements made in the guidelines are: "The school's approach to religion is academic, not devotional."

Basically, not only bible reading in class is unconstitutional, but so is reading any other religious text in pursuit of forcing religion on someone. This still allows kids to bring their Bibles and talk to their classmates about their beliefs, and even pray! I just think it shows that we have a government that is trying to be the best it can be. :0)

I was going to post a whole rant about an earlier debate but I saw you all decided to ditch the conversation so I'm putting under a summary for those who still care.

I would like to apologize

Post your memes here!

Sorry, again.

@Spector_Otterquill and @Beckendorf_Direscope a word to the both of you, you guys should not be apologizing, you literally did nothing wrong. It was a solid meme, and while not exactly a knee slapper it was humorous and made sense, which is much more than I can say for half the stuff on the meme topic.

---

Something weird is going on in this day and age where everyone is somehow being convinced to be offended or hurt by literally everything, and that not how people are supposed to live! What ever happened to "sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me"? What was said wasn't even bad and you guys are like "OMGosh that's sexist" -- Rant about that in sub text for those who care that much:_{(The meme actually is sexist by technical definition but guess what? THATS COMPLETLY FINE! IT MEANS NOTHING! THE WHOLE POINT OF JOKES ARE TO POINT OUT STEREO TYPES!)}

Normally I'm not the person to just come out and say it, but everyone should just take a step back and:
A) Realize the world isn't ending because you feel a little discomfort in something someone said and B) Get over yourself and laugh at your faults a little!

_{I'm kind of passionate about this topic if you can't tell.}

[Beckendorf_Direscope]

Hey there, thanks for the encouragement.

[Jayhawk_Greencape]

THE WHOLE POINT OF JOKES ARE TO POINT OUT STEREO TYPES!

Eh, maybe 50% of today's jokes. :0) Thanks for your input! :0)

[Spector_Otterquill]

you guys should not be apologizing, you literally did nothing wrong.

When I apologize most of the time it's not because regret my actions but because I regret the "harm" that they caused; I conceded the argument because there was nothing to gain and what was said was not "positive".

[Sierepica_Fuzzywalker]

What ever happened to "sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me"?

This is a lie.

Words can transmit lies between people. Sticks and stones can put you the hospital for months, but lies can enslave people and make them miserable for years.

Now I would agree with you that @Lilliana_Umbrellascope is probably believing a lie and suffering because of it, and blaming the people who believe differently than she does for the pain that they are supposedly causing her, but time has shown that I can do nothing about it. She will have to learn on her own, mostly because I don't know which lie or lies are causing her suffering. But stacking the "words will never hurt me" lie on top of her existing pain will likely make matters worse.

[Spector_Otterquill]

This is a lie.

Yes but they don't have to; sticks can break your bones. Period, but words don't have to hurt you especially if they are from a stranger online.
