I believe in price control.
Government should limit prices, so college doesnt require tons of money to go to.
I dont believe in government subsidizing alone, because that often gets abused and prices still go up
because free market works in a way that with limited resources, prices always go up
because even with competition, it kinda works like this:
You are selling apples and you have 4 apples.
I have 4 apples and I am selling too.
There are 8 buyers. Each wants 1 apple.
Even if you lower your prices, I dont need to lower mine because you dont have enough apples for 8 people. You have only enough for 4 people.
If I keep my prices up, you run out of apples and buyers are forced to buy my apples at a higher price.
As a result, I earn more than you.
Thats why in free market, prices always go up.

I would say that infant circumcision shouldnt be done even if there is a medical reason, unless medical reason is strong enough and there are no other ways to cure a condition.
About smokers. Smokers have terrible habbit to smoke in my presence. It isnt enough that they are killing themselves and their brain cells. They are also trying to kill me and my brain cells.

Actually, the best proof that God doesnt exist
is that theists cant explain why would God create this world in the first place.
There is simply no rational explanation possible as to why would an all powerful being do this shit.

I always thought that parties end up being too like-minded. Every member is just too afraid to lose support, so just goes with the herd.
Besides, political parties play no beneficial role for democracy.

In dictatorship, you have one party.
In democracy, you have two parties.
Also, all candidates for president are pre-selected by parties.
They control who you can vote for. They control your options.
Of course, I like democracy more than dictatorship, because democracy improves more over time.
I mean, the best countries to live in are all democratic countries.

Actually, Israel killing 20000 civilians helps Hamas and makes Israel look bad. Israel is losing support world wide.

Yet, you don't really have a choice
Correct. So you might wanna stop calling it "an agreement" between me and God. Really, the agreement kinda implies a choice and not "you must do things you never agreed to because of an agreement you never agreed to".

@Tradesecret
Because someone who is your representative has agreed on your behalf.
I didnt agree to that part either.
If anyone can agree in the name of someone else,
then I will be your representative now and I agree that you should give me all your money.
You are bound by the agreement now.

Have you ever been to some poor country and thought:
"Things are really cheap here. My dollar buys much more in a poor country than it does in a rich country."
Congratulations! You just discovered basis of economical global exploitation!
So how does it work?
Due to exchange ratio of currencies and as well as prices,
Rich country pays much less when importing from poor country
than poor country does when importing from rich.
This creates an effect where even with equal amount of money or equal amount of things bought,
rich country can buy more and drain more resources from poor country
than poor country can buy and drain from rich country.
Of course, one could say that the rich country offers better quality products. That may sometimes be true, but it isnt true in exchange ratio of currencies.
It also often isnt true in prices either. An apple is cheaper in poor country than in rich country. Now, one cannot put on a serious face and say that apple from rich country is better in quality than apple from poor country. Apples are somewhat same. The price isnt even close to being same.
This is also because poor countries have cheaper labor force.
Poor countries also depend upon rich countries for trade. Only rich countries with high technology can provide good military equipment.
This means that poor countries are forced to enter in trade in which the exchange ratio of products is simply not even close to being equal.
Technologically advanced countries always have trade ratio which is in their favor.
In fact, the trade ratio is so much in rich's favor that poor countries sink even more in poverty as their resources are taken by rich countries on a mass scale.
Remember that Gaddaffi was killed for rejecting US dollar exchange ratio and set his own ratio of exchange.

So not every person has AGREED.
Yeah, that was the point of what I said.
So how can I be bound by an agreement that I didnt agree to?

by suggesting surrender as a way to win a war against pure evil.
Its a simple plan. Israel surrenders and its entire population runs back to USA.
Then pure evil will be defeated because Israel will no longer exist.

Insulting me only proves you are clueless and know nothing about wars and how they are won.
Insulting you?
You are tough enough to promote genocide here, but you cant take a little insult?
Did you really think I will say that you are right and that no one should care when Israel kills civilians?
Tell us war genius, what is the quickest way to win a war and limit civilian casualties?
That's easy.
Israel should just surrender immediatelly and go back to USA, but first give back 1 trillion dollars that USA gave them.

I am sorry to inform you, but its called care because thats what people do when bad things happen. They care.
You obviously dont care because you are a psychopath, but you might wanna hide that part of yourself. It really doesnt help your side to add even more onto their general psychopath image.

Jesus in revelation came back and killed the entire planet.
The Christians are so excited that they keep posting videos on youtube about end of the world where everyone except Christians dies by Jesus's sword and then they praise their bloodthirsty Lord Jesus.

the covenant is directed at all people in the nation, not just those over the age of minority
I dont think you know what covenant means.
Neither does your God, it seems.
Covenant is an agreement. It cannot extend to those who didnt agree to it, who cant consent (cant agree).
Do you think that 10 year olds can consent?
Do you think that babies can consent?

So you are offended by freedom and want to force people to reproduce.
I am amazed by all the ways you Christians find to justify rape.
Sadly for Christians, the world is not gonna give up its freedom to embrace your vision of forced reproduction.

I like how republicans say that Biden loses votes for supporting Israel,
while at the same time republicans themselves are all supporting Israel.
In fact, judging by comments on youtube,
Support for Israel is usually followed by Christian prayer. (MAGA are christians).

I find people who have need to dictate other people's genders pretty gay.
Like, learn not to stick your nose in other person's gender.
Also, due to nature of language, you also dont get to dictate what is a boy and what is a girl.
I see many people in debates thinking that they have some special right of dictating definitions while denying same right to others.
Its mostly Christians who do that. Atheists are smart enough to know that labels are arbitrary. Christians... well... not so much.

It goes beyond external genitals
Maybe for you, but thats irrelevant to the topic.
This topic only deals with those who claim that penis and vagina determine who is male and who is female.

Third, these lads act with deliberate intent
Just a few months ago, you were saying how your God doesnt consider those under 20 as responsible for their actions.
But dont worry, I had same problems when I was a Christian.
The amount of Jesus's stupidity I had to justify still hurts my brain to this day.

Why would Israeli military just open fire on 3 unarmed civilians?
Could it be that they are actually targeting civilians?

Israel killed more civilians in two weeks than Russia did in a year.
There is only so much "those civilians were legitimate military targets" excuse that one can use while mass bombing civilians.

Transphobes say:
"If you have a penis and testicles, you are a boy."
So if a person surgically removes those, then he stops being a boy?
Checkmate, transphobes! You just proved that person can change genders!
