I was at wal-mart and...

[Moldy Dreads]

handsome young guy, maybe 3-4 years younger than I at that time

Sorry Rabbit, I didn't mean to jack your thread bro. I just wanted to convey that it's a good thing to feel all those emotions and let them guide and mold you.

I just think you wanted to convey how handsome he was to you LOL, jk.


Talk about a wild thread, I agree though, life is very hard to understand. Be thankful for just being able to walk and live without the constant help of others. Life is really hard to find the meaning of when you start to focus on all the bizarre and unjust circumstances some are forced to live in..

i dunno why people would give hitler any credit. anybody can take a speech class and get up on the pulpit and yell and scream and get the crowds riled up and promise a brighter future and all that. he just had the balls to do it. look at where we are today with everyone screaming and shouting bloody murder about cannabis, using propaganda from the 20's that has been disproven time and time again. its easy. people are generally pretty fucking stupid.

Yeah, yeah, yeah....yuck it up

I already caught heat for baring a piece of my soul in this thread....I got thick skin.


Seriously though, Peace

I think these to guys are onto somethin.....+rep
peace

 

[Cookie monster]

Wow....this conversation has degraded.




Tis true, but we don't live in some remote corner of the globe where sustenance depends on only having the fittest of the fit procreate, another society that lived that way were the Spartans.......over a millenia ago.

I thought we had evolved....stupid me.

Nah man we haven't evolved that much, instead of killing the biggest mammoth it's who earns the biggest pay check...

Funny how this topic has changed to a hitler topic the minute someone mentions selective breeding or what ever you want to call it.

Hitler wanted to create an aryan super race not a stronger healthier population selected from all races colours creeds and religions .
Hitler was a nutcase who's ideas on creating an aryan race were flawed to say the least...

 

[iGro4Me]

ah..
i was jus funnin'!
but ya, that is funny, he was handsome.
(big shit eating grin)

I was merely making reference to the fact that had he not been mentally challenged at birth, his and my life experiences could have been similar....

I'm a fairly handsome fella myself, so I've been told

impin:

Truth be told, it was a good thing for me our paths crossed that day


Is it that bad to recognize when another man is handsome ?....jeesh.....Let's not turn this into a sexual indentity/comfort in our skin thread maing....


Where's Hitler when you need'em

dawin could have told him that 100 years before his rule. species are supposed to mix and breed, thats WHY life is on earth. i just saw 'valkuire' or whatever its called... good movie, incredible story. its sad they didnt pull it off.

The Pagan bloodline of Isis which makes us all twice wise, our Geneses was engineered by themselves. They used selective breeding and selective midwifery. They culled undesirable traits from the bloodline. The purpose was to elevate humankind to a higher order of life.

They had some success. It would be impossible to achieve this at this time with the present political climate because of ancient abuses of power, the established culture of Biblical monotheism, and the stigma the Fuhrer has left.

So would it be ok to "cull" parts of yer family if they had "undesirable traits"? I think it would be impossible to do this now because we see it as being barbaric. Humankind will naturally evolve in to a higher order of life. We went from dragging our knuckles and carrying clubs to disussing this on the internet, right? lol BC

 

[h^2 O]

bunch of folks here need to go take a college course on Ethics.

This is embarrassing.

Hal I took a course here Sophomore year titled "the history of biomedical ethics" - in which we discussed eugenics at great length - going over the great scientific works associated with it, the benefits it has on humans, and the small faction of generally uneducated or zionist-type people who are opposed to it. The people who are usually opposed to it are in fact the people it most benefits.
For any conversation to be held in earnest you must take an unbiased look at both sides. THEN make your argument. Not saying you're evil or anything. But with your one-track mind I wouldn't be surprised if you called me a nazi for liking the work of Von Braun in our space program (because it was started by nazi scientists). Open your mind man, need to know both sides before you make a decision. That's what's wrong with AMerica - they look to the news to tell them what their opinion should be.

PS the whiners will be coming home from school soon - best to lock this up/bin it.

 

[Moldy Dreads]

and then I get there

and I see this girl, with down syndrome, you know how they have this face

This guy is stoked, he made millions$$ and he's Down Syndrome. I bet he's happier too.

The guy starts walking, and one can't help but notice, both of his legs we're very crooked, he was leaning -alot-.. every step, man it made me think of things

Through her sheer presence and unrelenting spirit, Aimee Mullins is challenging the definitions of physical beauty and ability. In doing so, she is not only celebrating her own achievements, but more so, celebrating her ability to defy conventional public mindset, simply through her honest, open personality, and her incredible talent

.

Life has meaning only in the struggle. Triumph or defeat is in the hands of the Gods. So let us celebrate the struggle!

- Stevie Wonder

A disease could also be a sad thing, but it's all about how we view life and happiness, and as stated before, some "special" and handicapped people know how to live happy and meaningful lives...

You can't base your life on other people's expectations.

 

[Trying-to-blend]

I just treated him normally

coming from someone that has a lot of mentally and physically challenged people in his family, that's exactly what you should do.

However, you should have grabbed a cam corder and started recording the btich that was yelling at her DS foster child. who the FUCK does SHE think she is????? i suffer from some mental illnesses that make me react to certain situations in a way similar to that of an autistic person or a downs syndrome kid(and most, however functional they may be like the surprising number of them that have graduated college, NEVER cease to be kids in spirit and emotion) and let me tell you, yelling is the worst thing you can do. That's when the brain shuts off and the reptilian mind kicks in. The hypothalamus(if i'm not mistaken) starts kicking out memory flags and mental and emotional wounds start forming. You basically retreat into your happy place. I've completely disconnected from the world at times, like you seee in movies where the person just drowns everythign out and the voices sound muffled, but just... not there mentally. I've gone so far as to take a beating from a family member without ever feeling a thing. Meh, maybe i'm overreacting, but seriously... fuck that bitch!


oh, and H2O, unless you propose we bio-engineer every single chilD THERE IS NO FUCKING WAY TO WEED OUT MUTATIONS. The name says it, MUTATION. It starts out normal, at some point in going from diploid to haploid something gets fucked up in the decoding and encoding. Sperm are created on the fly(more or less) so... there's really not much we can do, other than RISK ASSESMENT. At that point, all you really want to do is think whether you want to risk bringing a sick child into the world to suffer, or adopting one that is already suffering and end their calvary

 

[nepalnt21]

fuck that bitch!

fereal

ho needs a lobotomy

 

[irieeyes808]

I know when I see others with a difficult situation and them acting normally it just puts things in perspective and then I feel so stupid when I feel unsatisfied or complaining about life. Own it and make the best of life. Good read and quality souls here!

 

[h^2 O]

yowzer is he still alive? Can't be. I thought people with Down's usually only live to about 40 or so? He was like 30 when the show was going in the 80's, so if he's alive he must be like 60 or something. I'd like to know why other Downe's patients are dying young and he's still aorund. Oh yeah - $$$$$$$

I liked the older sister on Life Goes On, the blonde one.

EDIT: trying to blend - it's "mutants"? Is that like the technical term? I'm totally not being sarcastic. So Corky is...a "mutant"? Sounds horrible, but I guess it's true? IDK. So there's mutants out there...everywhere!

Really, do tell? Pagan evolution transformed Homo Sapien into Homo Sapien Sapien in a few thousand years what may have never taken place in a hundred thousand if ever.

Looking after the elder was job 1, Pagan religion was wisdom religion. The Pagan gods were real people. They were deified ancestors who were wise because they had contributed the most to raise them above the beasts. What started as a family affair transformed our entire species.

i bet she was "special" too.

Huh? Was that supposed to be some kind of attack? I bet your mother's special, tell her I said hi. If it wasn't, tell her I said hi anyways. Isn't it nice when we all get along?

Anyways, the day the human race along with individuals that are in power decide that they have the say in whether your genes are of quality enough to continue, is the day I take up arms with a vengeance.

As much respect as I have for Darwin, along with natural selection, human intervention is not natural and is nowhere near a necessity in the process of evolution. Let the cards play themselves, we are not in the position to make the decision in who lives or dies, considering the very nature of us along with the many of our agendas and biases. This is not a fucking video game or a vegetable crop, you only live once. I'm pretty pro choice, but not when it comes to stamping out fully established human beings. If you want to be selective in your breeding, that's up to you, but leave the rest of humanity out of it. We will evolve or die, regardless of whether we allow people who are not as physically/mentally able to exist or not. You should only hope that you don't carry a recessive gene that could pass on something like Asperger's. Maybe you can backcross to improve on that trait though...

Also, Hitler was a piece of shit, that hated what he saw in himself. He used manipulation to cause genocide on a massive scale, so I definitely hold him responsible, just like I hold the US govt responsible for the war on drugs. Even if Aryans were around before him, genocide of the Jewish would not have happened on that scale if it were not for him. I do not see how anyone could respect him, considering there was nothing admirable about what he has done.

Sounds like some people are down for the master race though, what a shame. What makes you so much better than everyone else?

The Genesis of genes-of-Isis

The Genesis of genes-of-Isis

So Corky is...a "mutant"? Sounds horrible, but I guess it's true? IDK. So there's mutants out there...everywhere!

Isis was a mutant Genius born in Africa from a race of cattle herders & breeders. Having known selective breeding in their animals they saw the advantage Isis's intelligence would give their family. That female line of Isis or Eve known by several names went on to be our ancestral mother goddess.

This isn't just superstition. Caring for the elderly kept wisdom and leadership in the tribe thereby improving the tribe's odds in survival as a whole.

yes I've read the same. But it's a theory based on the remains of a few scattered individuals. Well it's more than a theory, sort of...cus there's no elderly when the normal lifespan is like 25 years.
and yes there are pathologies on bones showing breakage and other serious injuries/conditions which had heealed/been treated/been lived with in agony, most likely with the aid of other people.
But as I mentioned Mousterian culture early - Neanderthals were doing the same things - an actual culture (venus fertility statues), and as most people aren't aware of - the capability of speech. The position of the hyoid implies speech was there.
And we must remember we are the only hominids left - there were hundreds of species of hominids over the past 7 million years. We're just the only ones that made it. I'm sure one or more also cared for their elderly or handicapped. So it's not human-specific.

awesome! that sounds a lot like the Sumerian stories which talk about the alien Gods hybridizing us. I love this stuff
