| 51 | She: "You don't have to hold the door for me because I'm a lady." He: "I'm not holding the door for you because you are a lady. I'm holding the door for you because I am a gentleman." (Implied: "You aren't a lady.") | Do you believe a man should hold a door open for a woman? |
| 52 | I know, God, I did promise 'never again'. But I know, that you know, what a weak-willed person I am... | Have you ever said, "God, are you real?" or "God, if you are real, then show me." |
| 53 | Feeeeed meeeeee! | If your pet could talk, what would it say? |
| 54 | Victor Borge. | Who's your favorite man of comedy? |
| 55 | I pretend I have to be places half an hour early; this usually improves my visible punctuality but I almost never make my artificial deadline. My lateness is often indicative of how much I'd rather not be there, but not reliably. More likely, I was finishing up another activity which was more important to me at the moment. People who are slaves to the clock I find tedious. | Punctuality |
| 56 | I can, although I disagree with the first condition. | Can you solve this riddle? "Name something that is better than God, dead people eat it all the time, and if we eat it, we will die. |
| 57 | You forgot 'What's new on SC?' (but that isn't what I thought). | What was the first thing you thought of when you woke up this morning? |
| 58 | The legality of an action should be decided independently and in ignorance of how it may effect people's religious practices. Once that has been done, people should be free to practice their religion as long as it does not involve any actions deemed illegal. | Should freedom of religion be complete and unfettered? |
| 59 | I notice you specify 'female' mutilation, does male mutilation not infringe on someone's rights? | Should freedom of religion be complete and unfettered? |
| 60 | Male genital mutilation is common practice in America. In my society, people willingly submit to being tied legally to one mate for their entire lives. They have been taught throughout their lives by everyone IN their lives that this is what will happen... is that really free will? They aren't being forced, at the moment before tying the knot, to submit ... they are being "forced" to submit by the teachings that have been ingrained into their heads! If they were not taught, and had never been taught, that they should or must be subjected to such a restriction on their freedom, or that such a relationship should be the cause for celebration, or for "praise" and "prestige," would they freely choose it? People willingly submit to having to work for money to survive. They have been taught throughout their lives by everyone in their lives that this is what will happen... is that really free will? They aren't being forced, at the moment before accepting the job, to submit ... they are being "forced" to submit by the teachings that have been ingrained into their heads! People willingly submit to having their children taken from them at age 5 (or thereabouts) and forced to undergo education outside the home at the hands of and surrounded by strangers, coming home only to eat, sleep, and sometimes socialize... People willingly submit to being disallowed to walk on certain plots of land for the simple reason that they belong to someone else... Everything is about culture and the teachings of that culture. Things are done the way they are done, often simply for the reason that that is the way they are done! If something is considered normal in a culture, an outsider to that culture can have nothing to say about whether that is right or wrong for people in that culture. | Should freedom of religion be complete and unfettered? |
