[2001-09-13 23:57:00] - well, what would be the point of encryption if this law passes, so if it does, we might as well not waste the money on it. what's sad and pathetic is that it does nothing to stop terrorists from using it. - mig

[2001-09-13 23:28:00] - I think there's a sharp difference from "not being patriotic" and being completely utterly ignorant..... beating people up, "don't be angry, you may be drafted", "muslims should have their rights revoked", or feeling nothing at all.. are examples of said ignorance. -cryptic
[2001-09-13 23:25:00] - 'democracy' is one of those empty words that has been so misused that it doesn't mean anything. like 'ignorant' or anything written in a high-school litmag. - wolf
[2001-09-13 23:21:00] - although, actually if it does happen, it'd be preferable to hear about it so not to be ignorant of the truth (people are dumb) and thus be able to work to change that... -cryptic
[2001-09-13 23:20:00] - as for the "other issues at hand?" it would be refering to the ignorance of some people.... I guess I didnt make it clear by saying "ignorant people going around and beating up people with origins in the middle-east" I should have added "or other ignorant people" -cryptic
[2001-09-13 23:19:00] - imposing is not.... altough enlightening and education is.... the current government imposes... but it's justified in their eyes and american's eyes because democracy is supposed to be the great equalizer... -cryptic

[2001-09-11 14:35:00] - aba: although thousands work there and 100-150k visit daily does not mean that many died... I'm sure many people lost their lives, but having that many working/being there does not mean that many died.. -cryptic

[2001-09-11 14:30:00] - I agree with that article. Retaliation is just going to breed more anti-US sentiment. Although I suppose in this instance we might be justified (as far as the world's opinion of us is concerned). -logan

[2001-09-11 07:16:00] - different than necessary -cryptic
[2001-09-11 07:16:00] - anyways, let's drop it, I find this bickering a waste of both your and my time, your message is simple, "people are different thus there are going to be inequalities", fine, I'll agree to that, just stop using the word necessary, because it's NOT necessary, it may be what happens, but that is far
[2001-09-11 07:11:00] - my problem is still with the wording, the message behind the wording is simple and not profound, the word 'necessary' still implies that it's required wether or not you want the word to mean that -cryptic
[2001-09-11 07:08:00] - Saying inequality will exist because people are different and thus one will be superior (in one way) than another seems more reasonable -cryptic
[2001-09-11 07:07:00] - a definition of necessary is not follows, nor it must be, but rather essetial and needed. How is inequality needed? -cryptic
[2001-09-11 07:06:00] - if you have more than one human being, it's not necessary or required that their circumstances be different, but rather it follows that their experiences will be different -cryptic
[2001-09-11 07:04:00] - necessary is still the wrong word though, even assuming everything. -cryptic
[2001-09-11 07:00:00] - meaning: that's your experience and thus are applying it to every other situation -cryptic
[2001-09-11 06:59:00] - it's not necessary that their experiences and circumstances be different, you only assume as much because you don't know any different -cryptic
[2001-09-11 00:39:00] - If you have more than one human being, it is necessary that their experiences and circumstances will be different, and thus there must be inequalities. -logan
[2001-09-11 00:38:00] - So when I use it I mean that it must follow from whatever your premises are. It's a logical consequence. -logan
[2001-09-11 00:37:00] - I think it's pretty clear in a philosophical context that necessary means necessary in the philosophical sense.

[2001-09-10 22:51:00] - that was me again -cryptic
[2001-09-10 22:51:00] - "necessary means that it must be" a more used definition is "necessary means required, essential, needed"
[2001-09-10 22:49:00] - given a world where everyone was equal, it would be very different from our own (that's a given) yet would it necessarily fail? Assuming it does not, what does cease once inequality is done away with? If you mean "inequality exists" by "inequality is necesary", then the problem is wording -cryptic

[2001-09-10 22:46:00] - by saying inequality is necessary, you imply that something would not be if inequality stopped - Cryptic
[2001-09-10 22:45:00] - you gave an example of no inequalities existing, if you cannot imagine it in action, that is completely different than not computing/understanding, had you not understood, you could not give an example.... unless you happened to be guessing -cryptic
[2001-09-10 22:43:00] - logan: There exist connotations and definitions for words, some more abstract than others, but the definition you propose for necessary does not fit mine. Your definition seems more to be of existance...if something is necessary, that implies it has a purpose -cryptic
