George, next time, could you not impose religion, please? I (and, hopefully, many others) tolerate suggestions to help out but, by saying to "just believe something religious", you'll provoke arguments. I'd like to keep this thread with the leasts dispute.
Yeah, was gonna say this but wasn't sure if it was wise.
Generally if someone's having a problem, just telling them to be religious isn't going to necessarily help. People often need more practical, or compassionate, solutions.
Not to mention the fact that a massive, massive number of Americans don't believe in a Christian god.
just believe in the lord, and you will be alright

It's not just as likely. If George had instead said 'Take comfort in your family and those who love you' no-one would have cried out 'WHY DIDNT YOu MENTION GOD'.
Seriously, I don't think George was "imposing religion" by suggesting that. People take comfort in all kinds of things.
Plus, imposing a… more complete whitewash of religious topics is just as likely (if not more) to start an argument.
That's just my two cents. Like you said, this is no place for bickering, so if I'm out of line, I apologize.

I have a new Rant today
So, Often, some People ask me,
"Hey Noah, Who's your Favorite Music Artist?"
So, I'll answer with my favori… moretes, Which are, Starbomb, The Living Tombstone, MandoPony, And AmaLee. So, after I say that, They usually Scoff or Grunt, and say,
"No Idiot, A REAL Artist."
So, I'll sit there in Utter confusion, and ask what they Mean, They'll tell me, someone who you can hear on the Radio, Like 1D, Rihanna, Etc. And that makes me SO angry. I cannot express how freaking angered that makes me, So, Just because you aren't on the Radio, You aren't a REAL artist? IF YOU MAKE MUSIC, YOU ARE A MUSIC ARTIST!
Amanda, LT, Arin, Danny, and Mando all work really hard on their Music, and Just because they aren't on the Radio, it automaticilly means they aren't Music artists? No, That is a Lie, That is stupid, and People who Believe that have probably never worked hard on anything. If you make music, and you like it, and ot… [view original content]
I know the exact feeling brother, it can get progressively hard at times. I've had experiences like yours before...not exactly but similar experiences. I take hope in one day being a hero to people...I take hope and pride in what I can be and focus on reaching that dream than to get hurt by right now. Just remember, life will always try to keep you down and there will be someone new leading you away from your hope and push you into depression and hopelessness but I hope you can take pride in how much you mean to everyone either online, your friends, your family...people depend on each other. You're a great person from how well I've gotten to know you, we all make mistakes and we all feels broken but I know you're a strong person. Just stand for what you believe in, people are here for you, like myself and others.
So... I have no Idea where my Girlfriend is, she was supposed to get back Online today, and she's just gone. Which worries me. And to make m… moreatters worse, My world is falling apart around me. My family is starting to Lose it, One of my best friends is suicidal. and Now, My friend I've known since Kindergarten is pretty much a stranger to me. And Now, most of my other friends are either moving onto other things, or Ignoring me.
So now, I'm being haunted by some of my worst Memories growing up, Like One of my best friends dying in a Car accident, My father leaving us in a house in the Middle of Nowhere, with barely any rent and No car. So everything is just shit Now. and now, The money I was going to donate this month is gonna have to be used to make a repair in this house, which Is making me feel like even more of an asshole, and Now that's on my Mind.
And I'm running out of Ideas for all of my stories, So I'm completely Losing a lot. So,… [view original content]

They ONLY come to the US to have their child and reap the benefits. They aren't moving here (If they are it is for like twenty years anyway) If they were in the immediate future than I'd have no problem.
He’s daughter was born in America as well. He and her husband, educated in Britain and from prosperous families, hoped to send their children to an international school in Shanghai that admits only foreign students. When the kids turn 21 they can petition for green cards for their parents, too.
They clearly have a good life to be willing to spend that much money. And since they had a daughter in America as well, they must have spent another 50 grand there.
Sorry if I come off harsh, this just infuriates me.
A lot of us could stand to lighten the fuck up.
It seems like lighthearted debate isn't something this community can handle anymore. I d… moreon't remember discussions being so venomous when I joined in March of last year. Everything is taken personally and super-seriously now. It's gotten to the point where I hesitate to put my opinions out there, for fear that ideologues are going to instantly shut me down in the most pig-headed way possible. Given what I've seen in the unpopular opinions thread, my fears are not unfounded.
But they are paying for their plane ticket, buying a shitload of American goods, it's not like they are being smuggled in. If anything, it would help th economy with all that spending. I don't see how it's bad.
People are abusing the system to do it.

The USA Happy Baby is suspected of tax evasion, money laundering, and visa fraud. The plane ticket only benefits the airline, which could in fact be Chinese (Don't know enough about Chinese-American air travel to be certain about this)
Tax evasion is no good considering how much money these people are making, and that it's a crime.
And visa fraud is bad. If someone can lie why they came to America so they could to have a baby, imagine what else they could do successfully. Terrorism, stuff of that ilk.
And considering how these people go back to China and don't pay taxes, it's not that beneficial to the economy.
It's all opinion though. I'm going to bed goodnight.

The definition of art is anything that has human skill or creativity applied to it, so even that random scribble we all did as toddlers makes us artists.
Let us take a historical example: Vincent Van Gough. He was shunned and mocked for his paintings when he was around, and now, his paintings are hailed as masterpeices.

Steam Australia is going to start adding taxes to the pricing in 2017.
I know this isn't for a long time, but it makes me FUCKING FURIOUS… more. We already have to pay more than 2x the amount for our games to the point where I can barely afford it, and now they have the gall to add taxes? FUCK YOU VALVE.
Green Man Gaming, its sorta a steam substitute, that sometimes you can find better deals with them, BUT you have to make sure you are getting a steam key to activate, sometimes they sell you games that aren't connected to steam.

Can someone Explain how this Turned into a Religious Argument?
Well. I'm actually Religious, So I was okay with this, And I know some people might not be, But that's a matter of opinion to them, They can just walk away. I was actually quite happy with what george said.
Just that people do that. It sickens me.
I understand the reasoning, but I think stuff like that should be stopped.
....People bringing their babies to a better life?
