Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Friday, August 5 2005 12:17 Profile Homepage #32 quote: Originally written by demonslaeyr: This is why I think it's a bad idea. How would you feel when you found out you weren't a real human, just a clone bred to give organs for this jerk when he gets sick. What on earth are you talking about? Reproductive cloning and therapeutic cloning are two entirely different things. Ideally, in the latter case you clone a single organ. I don't think a cloned liver will particularly care that it's not its own person. Reproductive cloning, on the other hand, would produce real humans who wouldn't be required to donate organs or anything like that.

Human cloning in General
Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Friday, August 5 2005 11:01 Profile Homepage #27 I am so against human cloning that I think we need to abort one member of each pair of identical twins. No, seriously, I can't see reproductive human cloning leading to anything but trouble, but I also can't imagine any reason why there ought to be a law about it. I don't think identical twins have any issues with their essentially identical genetic make-up, so I don't know why clones would. As long as we use some basic common sense — the clone is a human being just as much as the original and has rights and the ability to be an individual just as much as any identical twin — everything should be fine. EDIT: The other kind of cloning, though, has so much medical possibility that we need to research it. If your liver is failing, someday we may be able to clone your liver, which would have tremendous advantages over simple organ donation.

Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Friday, August 5 2005 10:26 Profile Homepage #115 I think perhaps what I was saying before was unclear. If he prays during the State of the Union, this is a problem. If he prays beforehand, off-camera or at least on only a few CNN and C-SPAN cameras, then I don't care. Drakey, with regard to 1: if he can't justify it without religion, then it's useless. (It also probably means that he's not being inventive enough — virtually anything that can be phrased in religious terms can also be phrased in terms of "defending the public health" or "protecting the integrity of national security." If anything, what annoys me is the conscious effort to phrase things in terms of "God" and "moral values" that really don't need to be phrased that way.) Religious opinions are different from other opinions, because they are inherently without conclusive evidence. Saying, "I think this tax plan will economically benefit more people than that tax plan" is fundamentally different from saying "I think that this law will make this country more obedient to God than that law." The latter can be tested and verified. The former cannot. I don't mind if a person comes to a conclusion based on religion, but I do mind if that person argues it on the basis of religion. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Thursday, August 4 2005 20:46 Profile Homepage #92 Ash, in what way does the Holocaust or evolution constitute religion? I've only said that he cannot endorse religion from his position as a political leader. Do you want to discuss the reasoning behind this position or clarify the outcome of the reasoning (i.e. what he can and can't talk about)? I was under the impression that it was the latter. If we're talking about the former, say so. EDIT: And if the former, ask yourself first if you really need to try to clarify either why separation of church and state is a good thing in its own right or why a political figure acting in his position as leader endorsing a particular religion violates separation of church and state.

No, no, no, not at all. This is a complete misunderstanding (or misrepresentation) of what I'm saying. He is not allowed to say that which is specifically prohibited. Endorsing a particular religion is specifically prohibited. Other things are specifically prohibited, too; lying comes to mind. But he can voice whatever opinions that he wants, as long as those opinions don't cross the lines set out by the Constitution and the basic interpretations thereof. EDIT: And I don't think it should be a felony, but dammit, I'd like to be able to slap him with a fine equivalent to a speeding ticket or something. If you can't justify your policies except with religion, your policies have no place in government.

Scenario Contest Entries in Blades of Avernum
Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Thursday, August 4 2005 18:39 Profile Homepage #17 For anyone who's keeping score, there are 22 scenarios on the Lyceum Rated list. Eliminate 4 'cuz they're by Jeff. Eliminate APF and BS 'cuz they're by beta testers. Eliminate DaC because it never got submitted and 9Var because it apparently got rejected out of hand. Eliminate NM because it came out well after the deadline. That gets us to 13 for this contest. My predictions: 13-11. In no particular order, UV, RoR, and X'd. Too short, not enough impact. 10. ALR — long enough but not polished enough to do well here. 6-9. Again in no particular order, CV, LP, EM, and TCoNR. All short, so they take bottom half. Any of these might fall to tenth, but that seems less likely. 4-5. DoK and BC. I think Jeff will like the game mechanics of BC, but it doesn't have the polish to take it to the top three. DoK is competent and somewhat longer than the others, from what I understand. LP or EM might take fifth, but it seems unlikely. 1-3. MA, Canopy, Bahs. MA might drop farther if the linearity grates on Jeff too much. Bahs or Canopy might drop farther if Jeff can't beat them. If any of these drop, I predict BC will be the one that rises. What I think SW should do is another thing. :P -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.
