No, I didn't know that. We will not run out of fossil fuels. We need to stop using them long before they run out because of global warming.
[b]I just know that those 2nd and 3rd world countries mainly hanker for material wealth like in the capitalist countries. This sort of thinking will prove very detrimental and, as always, education is the key. ...[text shortened]... burb and rural living does the most damage to the environment and takes the most material costs.[/b]
I'm on a pension raising my kid and trying not to put my prejudices on him, but when he grows up, I'll prolly just "walk the Earth" and just give up the pension.

I have "walked the Earth" for a few years in my earlier life - so I know what's involved. The climate in this country definatley makes it easier
You're a pretty good guy too, bro.

How is that your definition if its entirety is enclosed in quotation marks?
I thought you had left the cult? Why are you not able to vocalise your own view without reliance on a cut and paste?

I think we can all agree on at least a few.
Seriously man, no one here seems to share your ideas on "moral absolutes" . Maybe a few Christians , but even they don't really seem to back this way of thinking.
So when you say "..we can all agree.. " , I think you are well off the mark.
However, if you have the courage of your convictions I say "go for it". Take your ideas through to their logical conclusions (as long as they are not directly harming anyone)
I've had similar problems here where no one (from either side of the fence) agreed with my views. Did it make me change my mind? Well, yes and no, but ultimately I felt that if an idea was strong enough, and I had experienced directly some sort of proof that I was right, that i really didn't need anyone else to approve of my views.
It seems that Christians like you get all antsy and start calling people nasty things when they don't agree with you.
If your idea is strong enough you shouldn't need anyone else's approval.

This shows that you do understand what you are saying without just cutting and pasting.
I won't look at links unless you give me a few words of your own as to why I should.
And also, I find originality one of the prime tenets of spirituality. As one Zen guy said : 'Copying is death'
