originality is an ongoing fashion, not a trend. One of the only fashions I'm in favor of. And I didn't say Iran hated US more than Iceland. I said they are more warlike, you little americentrite. And what's your point? Yes, looking at a flower is being affected by a different external influence from society, but we were discussing society's distortion of man, not the general distortion of man. But why do I waste my energy on someone who says "I hate science"? In the words of my father: "She said that? Wow, what a Luddite. I thought you said she was smart". What part of science do you dislike? The logical approach to problems? The discovery of the way in which things work? The technological benefits? If you wish to proclaim your hatred for science as a general practice and not be a hypocrite you must:
A) Remove your clothing, and walk to a place with no humans. Then you may forage for food, but not with any tools (spears, baskets, traps), as these are the product of scientific thought.
B) Never use any thought system involving logical conclusions drawn from empirical evidence (example: The roots of this tree look good, and the roots of a similar tree are edible, so perhaps I should try to eat the roots of this tree). This does not include knowledge you already have, because that requires no logical conclusions from empirical evidence. Unfortunately, our scientific society has bestowed upon you a great wealth of knowledge already, so you would probably know quite a few things to eat.
C) I think you get my point. Science is the cornerstone of all civilization and includes any produced from or involving logical thought drawn empirical observations. This is what you announce your despise of. It is truly the most Luddite thing I have ever heard. You are a retard. Perhaps you wish to detract or rephrase your statement, because I'm sure that you do not mean what you say. You would not have survived past four.
Love,
Xander
