I love this forum.
Of course you do, because you're afraid to have your preconceptions and prejudices challenged. You want to live in your own little liberal fairy-world where unicorns fly around farting rainbows and everybody agrees with you.

Why the fuck are you here? Why don't you go to RatSkep for that kind of mutual masturbatory circle jerk?
Because even with a handful of crabby people like you, this place fucking rocks! And, not every conversation is about preconceptions and prejudices. Some are about tits and bacon! :awesome:

Your fantasy about unicorns flying around farting rainbows and everyone agreeing sounds great! And I think this is a better place to be for that. We often arrange circle jerks, it's just that the jerks don't join in on the jerking. Sorts itself out.

I have had my preconceptions and prejudices challenged a lot, and frankly it's grown boring. It's the same old rhetoric over and over again, and it mostly just serves to reinforce my prejudices and preconceptions. I'd put you on ignore too, but it can actually be mildly entertaining to read your posts at times, so I won't.

What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

No. Despite the economic shithole that country has become, education has not suffered too much, even during the civil wars. Children are fed in schools. Horrible I know.

Some school districts in D.C. give poor students free breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It almost totally absolves parent(s) to have to even feed their kids. So you just know there are parent(s) that eat quite well from having most of the food stamp benefits go to themselves.
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

Just shut up kid, this is America. We can't do good school lunches here, even when we pay for it. Good school lunches for free is socialism!

Is it just me, or does anyone else find that the word "mandate" - when used in the context of lunches - provokes an amusing mental image?
