I am sure niteowl is just confusing one subject with another somewhere up in the desk and he is just trying to figure out what juxtaposition was made wherein a vain hope that something exists outside himself actually exists. Of course.

The problem is we can't trust anyone anymore. Not on either side of the debate. Not scientists. Not politicians. Not environmentalists. Not corporations. That's why this argument even exists, because we have no real foundation for any "true" knowledge in this culture. It's something anyone can latch on to for their own agenda, whether the phenomenon is true or not. As the general public, we have no real way of knowing. All information is handed down from on high.

I really hate to agree with you on this, not because I have anything against you, but because I feel like this is painfully true. If anything I've learned in political science classes, it's that the Elitist Theory is probably the most accurate judgement of the way our government and society operate. Money controls everything.

Yeah, the Elite Theory would be the most accurate name for it in the ivory tower.

Exactly.
Just imagine how much power the banks who print our money and loan it to countires with interest have...

I find it quite hypocritical of you guys all on your high horse, claiming niteowl's ignorance and childish actions; then after you feel like you've won you all come in with a barrage of childish insults. Besides, a lot of what he was saying made sense, and you did ignore a lot of it, just as he ignored you. The whole thing was quite silly. The caps have to melt one day, I don't think the fact that humans may be accelerating that meltage is going to be the end of us.

blah blah... I find it useless to argue period. Just niteowl is concerned with trying to tell a bunch of blasted stoners to do something about.. well, something they can't do anything about.
He may be right, but it's useless cause these peeps won't get anything together. And you know what? Neither will niteowl. I could almost guarantee it.
What nitey needs to do is focus more on things that can be changed. Like with a gun... or you know... become president and "strive" to be some legislative genius, or something. Setting people straight is great but not when you're being a douche like the people you are trying to set straight. That's why I said to just leave well enough grovelling alone.
His hubris is pretty legit though.... I can't believe how many times I read the same "your reading comprehension is lacking" and "you like pulling that out of your ass" lines in this thread. 
oh and I think we are all stoned here, kthx.
