I feel so loved! haha.
Yes, don't worry, change for the better (or at least I hope). That's certainly a shame to hear that you and Ethan rarely talk anymore, as well as the deterioration of things on here in general (if such sombre expression can be employed). I'll hopefully get in contact...
Oh no, my lurking has been discovered! D=
I imagine that your surprise was roughly equivalent to mine upon seeing that I had a visitor message despite having not been active here since 2008...
Deary me, my last visitor message from you before yesterday's was on the 19th of August 2008 - we...
Ah, Tim!
It has been quite the while. How are you? I see you are married now! Congratulations.
I thought of you briefly today, as I did the AMC... haha.
But yes, how are you? Lately I've been trying to improve my maths... I'd like to think I'm getting better. I taught myself the basics of...
Congratulations to Obama for winning the election, even if it was hardly a surprise. I marks a momentous day in history, and an incredible indicator to change and progress. A number of times today I have thought to myself, "Wow, imagine if I went back 150 years to the Civil War and told...
Yeah, but the U.S. Constitution is a somewhat more important document than the Magna Carter, lol. Plus, the U.S. Constitution was only made 230-odd years ago, whereas the Magna Carter was written nearly 800 years ago.
As for the idea being 'out there' - haha, yeah I know what you mean xD. I'm...
Sort of, yes. 'Absolute' is perhaps to strong of a word. All the Manga Carter does is restrict a monarch from exercising complete and utter unquestionable authority by making it 'law' that certain things can not be thrown aside like basic human and legal rights (the most notable being habeas...
Interestingly, while England - not to mention all Commonwealth states - are a Constitutional Monarchy, the Monarch still retains the power to disband Parliament and assume absolute power. Of course, the Queen is hardly going to do that ;)
Well I finished Death Note yesterday, so now I'm onto Fullmetal Alchemist. So far it's very good. Much different to Death Note though (other than that plot that is lol).
I'm starting to get into this Anime stuff ;)
Not to mention it shows a lack of faith in the counter-terrorism programs that his government runs.
Personally, I think it is cowardly to stand down due to death threats. They were inevitable for anyone in such a powerful position as he.
However, I do believe that, for the reasons stated...
Well... I just finished watching the last episode (thus concluding the entire series) about half an hour ago, so I decided to venture into the thread now not fearing any sort of spoilers.
All in all, I thought that the series on the whole was absolutely magnificent. Pure genius. I absolutely...
Mm. You still don't appear to understand. For one, I am unsure where this whole '4 themes of morality' business came from, as I have never heard of such a term. However, my bickering falls under the statement 'the debate I suggest'.
The thing is, you never really made it quite clear about...
Lol, Leagues weren't ever really gone... There's about fifty of them xD.
However, I am pleased that Clans have made a return! =D
EDIT: It would seem I completely misunderstood this announcement. *facepalm*.
I should probably have looked at the Battle section before replying.
I am however afraid that the Heinz dilemma is a debate about consequentialism and deontology whether you are aware of it or not.
As for I simplify the problem too much? It is quite the contrary. Rather I am looking at the example from a broader perspective. As somebody mentioned before, it...
Mmm. After reading all your posts it would seem that everyone is bickering/discussing all the aspects of the story and giving your opinions (which are all the same lol). You are all overlooking the larger and much more important debate which is poked at by use of the story of deontology vs...
I'm not really much of an Anime person, but recently I discovered Death Note yesterday. All I can say is that it is frikken awesome.
I absolutely love it. I'm up to episode 10 so far and I hope to have watched the whole series by the end of this week.
Too scared of spoilers to venture into...
