    If we can't out-breed them, let's out-bleed them. It's disheartening that this comes from the mouth of a modern capitalist. Remember that ethically, if you are thinking about casting a vote for Trump, you have no problem with murder.

    I'm not going to frame it like a small lifestyle change when it isn't. Ditching the car and walking is probably the biggest and most difficult lifestyle change I have ever made after quitting drinking. Last night, I walked in single digit temperatures for about five miles, which I covered in about 70 minutes. I hitchhike or reverse hitchhike, as in people offer me a ride. I'm certain that the people in my area think I'm a nut, but I don't care as long as I feel awesome and live a long and happy life. Statistically, I know I'm safer outside of the car than inside. There is a "free" county funded bus, which I can use if desired. If I want to go to Denver, a one way bus pass is $12. The cost to buy, maintain, repair, insure and fuel a car is absolutely insane, and it's only going to get worse when the dollar begins to lose value on the FOREX. Some people take out seven year loans to own a car. What do you think that does to the price? People used to pay cash for cars.

    I'm glad that we agree that state handouts are poisonous. See also Obamacare. My goal is to bring voluntarism to the family in order for it to thrive in the future generations of my family. Allowing the state or religion to gain a foothold in my life through marriage is counterproductive because I would reveal myself as a hypocrite to my children. I would not be practicing what I preach. Part of the problem with the language and definitions in this thread is that marriage and serial polyamory are being conflated. Marriage is supposed to last until death. How many marriages make it that far? See the link below, which shows how many divorces there are occurring each year in the United State. http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/marriage_divorce_tables.htm Functionally, a large proportion of marriages, once dissolved, are no different than non-monogamous relationships. You aren't going to continue mating after divorce. Typically, you are going to get another mate. Divorces are often not planned (my parents' divorce was planned), hence the squads of family lawyers wielding ungreased dildos. A virtuous woman won't want me to sign a legal document with the state, and aim a gun at my balls. Marriage is not for the kids; it's for the woman so she can have piece of mind and legal leverage.

    It's so nice not driving.

    If you cannot get enough Dr. Rhonda Patrick, like me, here's another video which discusses the science of breathing, meditation and cold shock therapy.

    Isn't one to two years of stringing them along enough? You should know within a month or two whether parents should be kept around or not. It took me about nine months to finally decide for good, but I wish I had acted far sooner. You said yourself that you have no desire to see them. Rip the band-aid off, and go no contact. What's holding you back?

    The State and religion are bedfellows. Get rid of one and the other shall also perish.

    Addendum to my last post in moderation: I may have mentioned this already, but the reason gays are fighting so hard for civil unions isn't to achieve a political or cultural victory. They want a piece of the state benefits conferred to married couples since the post-WW2 era (health care coverage, tax breaks, etc.).

    Our definitions differ, indeed. If I write up a living together contract with a woman, pledge my loyalty to her and a commitment to raising children peacefully and voluntarily, and then throw a party afterwards, you would call it a marriage. I would not. Marriage, throughout history, has been a ceremony blessed by some form of authoritarian oversight whether it be spiritual, political, or bureaucratic. If I call it a voluntary and free association between two adults for reasons of virtuous procreation, it would not fit the historical definition of marriage because a voluntary family union does not require an authority to lend it credibility. I don't need a blessing from the mayor to buy a carton of eggs, do I?

    If it is done for religious reasons, it is not in the interest of the children. You have often argued that indoctrinating children in an irrational belief system is aggression. Correct me if I am incorrect. If you aren't signing a state document, and you aren't celebrating God, what is the purpose of the ritual of marriage?

    I'm stuck between phase 3 and 4.
  13. J. D. Stembal
    I would not define the above union as marriage, as that implies a legal document on file with a state bureaucrat.
  14. J. D. Stembal
    No, the concept of modern marriage is a barbaric religious practice, like genital mutilation, and has its origins back where there was no separation between church and the state. Arranged marriage is often used to solidify a political alliance or business contract. You can love and honor a mate and family by simply practicing voluntarism, which is defined as seeking voluntary human relationships.

    There isn't any organized Illuminati-style conspiracy to prevent people from breeding. The cultural Marxists are winning at the moment, and anyone virtuous and intelligent enough knows they cannot breed beyond their means, especially while the parasites suck them dry. The State is the apparatus used to extract our blood. We are living in Atlas Shrugged. There is no reason why other than acknowledging that evil wants to win.

    He says uncircumcised men get shamed with not getting blowjobs from him. It's a disgusting statement. It would be like me saying I'll only eat vulvas that have been infibulated. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGL5eRw7rXUt=14:00

    What was the resolution to the situation between your wife's friend who wants to put her child into daycare or leave with a nanny? From this thread: https://board.freedomainradio.com/topic/44108-working-parents/ Has the husband attempted to negotiate that his wife stay home, and breast feed the child for the first 2-3 years?

    I wonder the same about white people. We aren't breeding, or we're having fur babies in lieu of human offspring. I will probably live to see a day where whites are officially a minority in America, just as my high school biology teacher had warned back in 1994. http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2014/06/26/falloff-in-births-slows-shift-to-a-majority-minority-youth-population/ If you are curious about this trend, search 'white genocide' on Youtube.

    If there was no state, no one would get married.

    He's pro-genital mutilation, so I find him vile and disgusting, personally.

    Mike Maloney explained how this works recently on USA Watchdog: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PZ3-Rg7x7wt=6:00

    I don't know as I don't use cannabis before workouts. I would not want my senses dulled while throwing weights around, but I could see how a mind altering substance would change an athlete's ability to lift. It's all about the mind over the body in the gym. If you don't think you can lift it, you can't lift it. If you know you can lift it, you will. Rarely, I use low dose edibles (10mg) for soft tissue damage like lower back muscle pulls and swollen shin splints. Post workout, especially when I lift heavy in a strength class or hit a PR, I smoke a cigar which soothes my mind and body, so that I'm ready for the next work out two days later.

    The OP has a very good point, but I wonder if the Google advertisement model is suited to the content in question. What products would a philosophy channel sell? For many months now, I've been attempting to sell the importance of fitness, wellness and nutrition to the community with the ultimate goal to bring rationality and science to health, and most importantly, remove state interference from health care, thus making universal health care obsolete. If less philosophically-minded folks are getting sick, the community, as a whole, will have more capital to donate to the cause of promoting philosophy, and FDR will benefit. Has anyone looked at the cost of health insurance lately? I have not, because I don't buy it. On Peter Schiff's video yesterday, he briefly mentioned that premiums are going up 10-20% year over year, which are not calculated into the government's CPI numbers.

    I second this idea. I had a bit of a revelation about it the other day with regard to mutilators, or parents who choose to circumcise their children. In order to effectively ostracize them socially and economically, we need a database of names, images and other relevant data. In the peaceful future, you will not be able to get away with violations of the NAP without consequences.
