Jeffery_G -> 35 Undeniable Truths Of Life (6/1/2008 1:01:15 PM)

I sat down one night a few months ago, and started writing a list of 35 basic, undeniable truths about everyday life. I got this idea from "Rush Limbaugh's 35 Undeniable Truths" (although I am not a fan of that show, and don't agree with Rush on much).

As with the original list, the following truths are all equally true, although some may be more important than others. The order is not necessarily significant.

Remember, this is NOT the Limbaugh list. This is simply my own list, written in the same format.


35 Undeniable Truths of Life

1. God exists.
2. Ontological truth exists.
3. Christ was not born on December 25.
4. The dangers of genetic engineering far outweigh its supposed benefits.
5. Abortion is murder.
6. Living things and biological resources are the work of the Creator and should not be patented.
7. War is not pro-life.
8. Parenting responsibilities should be shared between both parents.
9. Global warming is real.
10. Human cloning and embryonic stem-cell research are unethical.
11. It is not possible for a politician to support "family values" if he or she does not support family farming.
12. There is no such thing as a good war or a bad peace.
13. The Bible is God's Word.
14. It's bad luck to be superstitious.
15. The country is a better place to raise a family than the city is.
16. Tobacco is a drug.
17. Alcohol is a drug.
18. The legality of a drug does not necessarily imply its safety.
19. Homosexuality is unnatural.
20. Profanity is a mark of poor communication skills on the part of the person using it.
21. EDITED TOS 5
22. There is more value in a standing, living tree than there is when the tree is cut into lumber.
23. America is a republic, not a democracy.
24. It is nothing less than stupidity to choose a certain person to be your wife or husband simply on the basis of that person's immediate, superficial attractiveness.
25. A major reason companies develop hybrid seed is that they want to make the growers dependent on buying more seed each year.
26. Two wrong's don't make a right.
27. There is no such thing as a useless plant.
28. God is good.
29. The devil is evil.
30. A dentist who uses mercury amalgam is not a good dentist.
31. Ignoring a problem won't make it go away.
32. The deep-frying process is unhealthy for the consumer of the food.
33. Self-control is the best form of birth control.
34. Rush Limbaugh is not a climatologist.
35. The best way to predict the future is to create it.

Interesting. I don't necessarily agree with all of it, but interesting none-the-less.



Jeffery_G -> RE: 35 Undeniable Truths Of Life (6/2/2008 12:34:29 PM)

Which ones don't you agree with?



Calea37 -> RE: 35 Undeniable Truths Of Life (6/2/2008 2:50:51 PM)

Yeah, I don't know that I would classify all of those as "undeniable truths"....[&:] Some could be dependent on circumstances and some are merely opinions (10, 11, 13, 14 must be a joke, 15, 22 if I were out in a blizzard I think I would prefer the lumber turned into shelter than that standing tree over there...,25, 27, 30, 31, 33, 35... There are others but those are the ones that jumped out at me personally. Actually when you think about it, there are no undeniable truths... People can deny that God is good; doesn't make it not true, but still they can deny it if they want to.

5. Abortion is murder.

Refusing to have sex with someone must also be murder. The sperm and egg that never become zygote die because the child is never born.

The outside-the-box thinking is we don't consider murder to pertain to sperm, eggs, and zygotes.

quote:

8. Parenting responsibilities should be shared between both parents.

Several things we have to assume here.

Otherwise, this doesn't pertain to children whom resulted from rape.

After all, abortion is immoral.

quote:

13. The Bible is God's Word.

This is true, to the extent that the Qu'ran is also God's word.

quote:

14. It's bad luck to be superstitious.

Whatever that means.

Since when and religion and magic/mysticism (or whatever this is) compatible?

quote:

15. The country is a better place to raise a family than the city is.

Subjective.

quote:

19. Homosexuality is unnatural.

Statistically less natural than heterosexually, yes.

quote:

28. God is good.

In total God kills 371,186 people directly and orders another 1,862,265 people murdered (per the Old Testament).
