Four of the most offensive thoughts ever

Offensive thought number 1: Justice is the Holy Man's Vengence

"What is the difference between revenge and justice? When someone wants revenge, they say, 'I have been wronged. They must pay!'. When someone wants justice, they say, 'I have been wronged. They must pay!'.
So what IS the difference? Revenge simply isn't sanctioned by law."

Offensive thought number 2: Modern American Women

"I am a very tolerant person. I am forgiving and graceful, and do not hold grudges against anyone or anything. I am tolerant of religions, sexual orientations that are not my own, and I am very much comfortable with transvestites. These are all people who have merely chosen a different path from my own. It is, however, frustrating, when every modern American woman I meet is a female-to-male transvestite. What else could explain the jeans and equally masculine behavior?"

Offensive thought number 3: Democracy

"I have been born into a democratic society. This means that the majority of people will always rule. However, one must consider human variability. With so many people with so many different ideas, how can there ever be a consensus? The answer is that you must always go by the lowest common denominator. The lowest, basest, primal wants and thoughts amongst the populace; these are the things that will rule in a democratic society. Thus, intelligent, complex thoughts and designs are as far out of a democratic society's reach as they are from a baby's mind. What does this mean for me? What about the police who swear to uphold the principles of a democratic society, risking their lives? Must they die that democracy will fall away, that complexity and technology may be manifested so we might live in a more beautiful world? If this is true, who will kill them?"

Offensive thought number 4: "Your Mom."

"Your Mom."

More to come!

this is probably better placed in the EoF.

edit: just noticed the blog...hmm I guess
you can post (almost) whatever you want here.
 
Aside from basic moral values, and following the laws preset by society, they're the same. But that is one big difference.

Define "masculine behavior".
Also explain why women aren't allowed to act in manner that suits them emotionally.

Democracy is less about primal needs than it is about the one idea that hurts the least. It's not about pleasing everyone's smallest whim, it's about finding a way to peacefully contain a nation with as few casualties as possible.

No, your mom sir.
 
Well, just to explain a little bit, these aren't my actual applied beliefs and values. Just some musings I came up with that I would think most would consider offensive and radically different to their own beliefs. No harm is meant by them. You could consider them like a picture; a stagnant image representing a concept, an idea. Fighting against a picture does you no good; merely it's consideration.

True debate is like a flowing river. I did not intend to make this a river.
