Incorrect. Stalin was no Hitler in terms of racism, true. What he did was forcibly relocate and breakup ethnic minorities so they were not clustered in the Soviet Union, having seen what happened in Serbia to spark WWI. And when they resisted forced relocation, they were shot.
Calling that evolution is saying that wolves evolved into golden retrievers. They did not, we artificially bred them.
Or saying that genetic engineering is evolution.
And that is ignoring the fact that seedless grapes (like cavendish bannanas) CANNOT reproduce. So by definition, they are evolutionarily stuck. They cannot evolve.
It was meant to be humorous. Apparently I rolled a 1.
I wasn't speaking to the children's perspective. If you had never been born, you wouldn't care either way, by virtue of not existing enough to care. Sure now that you do exist you'd rather exist than not, but before the fact you would have had no opinion.
That being said, I do think it is immoral and wrong to have children you knowingly cannot provide for. If you yourself are bordering on starvation, then having children is the same morally as if you had children, and the means to provide for them but willfully choose to starve them. Its abuse either way. That was the point of my poor attempt at humor.
You talk about not having privileges your parents had before you were born. I'm talking about being able to eat enough to survive. Not even close to being the same.
For subsistence farmers you can make that claim, but not for cattle ranchers. The cattle ranchers already have land, but they have destroyed it by overgrazing. They burn forestland, march the cows over the grass and move on. They are basically locusts. Its not that they lack available land already, its that their method is inefficient and unsustainable.
And as for subsistence farmers, subsistence farming is not the kind of economic activity that should be encouraged--it is the very definition of abysmal poverty and low productivity. I mean, if its what a person wants to do then ok go ahead, but I doubt many of the world's subsitence farmers would choose a life that is practically the definition of poverty--to produce only enough to feed yourself.
Starving parents forfeited their right to sympathy by having children thus dooming them (the children) to starve. Making babies without candy is basically the same as taking candy from the baby.

The correct title for your post was Obligatory...
Its only scary if not cheating would have improved his surgical skills. You are assuming facts not in evidence.
As stated by another, those games exist. They are called FPSes and RTSes.

He's on slashdot, ergo he was lying. Just one of those things.

Bush doesn't give a damn about political expediency. He's damn proud to be so unpopular. To him, it means hes built his empire well.
Clinton never won the popular vote either. Just saying.
Stamped out like the plague? Way to mix your metaphors there.

Doesn't change how frightening it is that 1/3 of Americans are anti-american.
If I don't, then the judge will and the wording will be fucking me. Unless the judge decides fucking was used as an adjective.

That rely on cloning like seedless bannanas? Yeah, a fruit that cannot reproduce at all is really gonna win the envolutionary race.
Of course, the meaning of that clause is entirely dependent on whether or not 'fucking' is used as a verb or an adjective. BIG difference there.
You mean like the people who coded those tools specifically so they could have their own versions to do with as they pleased?

Cars as good as dead in towns and cities? Come on out to Los Angeles and tell me that. And I'll show you the 2 million cars on the road every day.

Where oh where have my mod points gone?
No the deforestation is mostly for cattle ranchers and subsistence farmers.
