Taking the moral lowground….

Response to JumpingJedi…

quote[quote] Why do simple questions turn into heated debates and mud slinging matches? The topic I was discussing was the minor cuts that US Sci-Fi made to a pretty mild scene and I was wondering why the US cuts it yet the rest of the world doesnt? Some people in this forum have turned it into a much bigger issue than it really is. [/quote]

Issues on a messageboard always changes if the thread gets long enough. Everyone adds a small peice to that change until the original topic is forgotten, It’s common. The issue WAS about censorship and censorship is mostly a question about morality, and morality IS a big issue. Surelly you don’t own the topic, and can’t contain it within the boundaries you set when you started it.
BTW, what’s wrong with some mud slinging matches? I just found a huge rock and I’m ready to throw it in the face of the next person who contradict (thanks, dictionary for the spelling) me!

But that’s just like saying – we should not talk about Lexx, we should watch it instead. And BTW, there is not much to learn about life from living it, other than the little knowledge you need to keep living it. If you wan’t go deeper you will have to read about it, or discuss it with other idiots. 🙂
I have never read a book about it though, I’m just observing. BTW (yes it’s my 3rd “By the Way”!!!) how do you NOT “live life”? Is it possible? What is life?
