    Why is Urban Pol full of racist threads?

    No the reasoning might be that if you're involved in politics, you're involved in national politics, as you don't have the possibility of trying to take over the world government, and if you're involved in national politics from a "left-wing" point of view, because you care about people? you...

    What is just so bad about the European Union?

    ...pro free trade, not pro-EU, and on the basis of what you have chosen to tell me not much like you at all. I will tell you what my Political Compass score is when you have answered my questions, particularly ... … with direct quotes from the document, please. (As I did to illustrate why I am...

    The Key to the England Puzzle

    Nor do I, but I don't think I as a European have the right to tell people from the developing world (in this case Mexico) who have Bullfighting in their history or culture that it is barbaric, that is my point, but many English people think it is their right to impose their standards on others...

    Political persuasion

    Anyone in the Welsh forum ever tried this 'test' before? Quite an interesting site. Post what 'score' you get on the political compass. http://www.politicalcompass.org/ I got: Economic left/right: -4.88 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.51 (similar position to Ghandi :D )

    The Key to the England Puzzle

    That is nonsense, Chelsea had several other options that night and didn't use them. You specified 'english' manager, I can't think off the top of my head. But if the argument was change slightly where an english manager substituted a defender for a striker, then the team will still perform as...

    I hope the Prez don't suspect me of anything

    Here's a really sad reality - both sides are going to continue attacking and blowing each other up. Nothing is going to stop them. All we can do is sit back and help the people. The UN is the only relief/humanitarian organization in the country. Everyone else has left - too much violence...

    Compass Conference, left wing my arse!

    Anyone heard about this Compass conference, they are billing it with suitable hyperbole as The Shape Of Things To Come!. 'THE SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME? A manifesto to change our world over the next 20 years 2006 Compass National & Robin Cook Memorial Conference; Saturday 17 June, Central Hall...

    Some questions to the "atheists/non-believers"

    well ... that's debatable. :) dont forget that a lot of that stuff was referring to what g-d would do to a sinner, or what the consequence of their actions would be, and not what humans should do to them. basically what goes around comes around. there were plenty of safeguards put in...

    Who should i vote for in Hackney?

    The organisation decided to reform itself into a left-leaning political multi-issue grassroots campaign group/think-tank based on the party's Manifesto for New Times. The primary focus for Compass is the Labour Party and the international, European, national, regional and local institutions...

    Left versus Right

    Society and family aren't ideologies, and democracy in its purest form is authoritarian. (It did for Socrates quickly enough.) Of course Socialism's a diverse movement and many Socialists are strong libertarians; but the rule of unintended consequence applies; socialism, implemented in any...

    Left versus Right

    ...religious traditionalists would call neo-liberals and the libertarian right dangerous, immoral, socially left wing libertines. The political compass is good in that it exposes the ridiculous political shorthand (that seems more common from US rightists) that divides the whole world into two...

    Left versus Right

    ...natural, healthy, and a reward or recognition of ability. The four-way axis of left-right, authoritarian-libertarian of the Political Compass website is interesting, for it takes that primary division and deepens it. It does not, however, remove that basic division. What is the case...

    Whats Psychology got to say about God

    No, many humans are not responsible for their actions, and won't take responsibility. The latter is easy so long as we are able to blame others (and this is my contention on this thread, that even if don't blame any other human, if we believe in God, then we can at least put things down to him)...

    Whats Psychology got to say about God

    I think living in thailand over 15 years of my adult life has, ironically given my previous comments, exposed me to and instilled in me buddhist thinking. I too believe/know that heaven and hell exist here in this life. I also like the buddhist philosophy. But i like what i've read on...

    Whats Psychology got to say about God

    Interesting to see such a rude reaction as thanks for my time spent on politely writing and politely repeating what I already wrote in a language I don't master. Here you get even more hostile. I can only guess the reason, but I guess it is correct to assume it is because you don't get what...

    US War veterans against the Iraqi War

    I see your logic. But in a way this is like the 'shift to the right' that happens in politics. I refuse to compromise, they can't see Iraqi's as human and can't see the primary tragedy when wars occur is the death of civilians caused by the soldiers of the invader, then fuck'em, they're...
