people should be allowed to state ignorant opinions

Without being "written off". I think it minimizes people to make complete assumptions about people and then just discount ANYthing they have to say from then on.

Sometimes people just say stupid s**t.

    Well it depends on how stupid the s**t you said was...if you made it obvious that you know nothing about a subject, nobodys gonna listen to your opinions on the subject anymore...

    I used to say stupid shiz all the time and not know it until i was ridiculed into the fetal position... Now i say half my s**t as if it's a joke so that if its stupid, its taken as a joke, and if its a good remark, people wonder why i said it that way...either way its funny and I get to pretend like i'm not a stupid s**t...lol

    If you say something stupid, then defend it by saying you have the right to say it, you've just said two stupid things.

    (You are correct, however some people consistently "box of rocks" themselves)

    first cousin marriage is legal in the UK


    also, it should say "first cousin" - because cousin means any two people who share a common ancestor, and we're all descended from the same African population dated to around 60,000 years ago, so everyone is in a relationship with their cousin. The difference is whether it's your first cousin or your 783rd cousin 43 times removed or whatever.

    I agree. Also, just because someone says something intelligent, it doesn't mean people should believe everything they say without question either. No-one's 100% right or 100% wrong and even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

    So a cat CAN be alive and dead at the same time, right?

    someone can be 100% right or 100% wrong at any given point in spacetime. But if you consider their entire life, they will not be 100% right during 100% of their lifespan, or 100% wrong for 100% of their lifespan.

    Although on that particular cat, I believe the cat is capable of observing for itself whether it is alive or dead, and thus the experiment is null and void and needs to be repeated with a less intelligent animal. And yes I know cats don't typically pass the tests that bonobos and similar do to determine if they are self aware... that is because cats are aloof and don't want to impress humans. Bonobos will do pretty much anything for a banana. So I've been told.

    that's because shroedinger put the kitty in a box and no-one knows if it's dead or alive.

    I thought you can say whatever you want, no matter how stupid as long as you put the discalmer, "just sayin'"

    Because, you know...just sayin'.

    People can state whatever they like, but keep it in the MFP forums where nobody seriously expects anything intelligent.
