I agree with those. I am not a proponent of pot but people shouldn’t be going to jail for it.
But you alleged that Reagan based decisions that were major and world-affecting on astrology. Do you stand by that statement, or will you concede that it isn’t true?

I won’t concede to anything I can’t prove; neither should you. And all we have is an admission that Regan made some decisions based on astrological hoodoo, which even you admit. I did ask, as politely as possible given the thread topic, what decisions Regan is credited with that discount the possibility that those decisions were made using a process utterly lacking in logic, reason, fact, or common sense?
You phrased that incorrectly - you shouldn’t make allegations that you can’t prove; neither should I. I haven’t; you have.
And it’s spelled “Reagan”, for heaven’s sake.

So… no answers, huh? That’s cool. I’ll just go cast some goat entrails. Maybe they’ll tell me what ReAgan’s great accomplishments were that aren’t eclipsed by his admitted subscription to insane, baseless superstitions.
Society shouldn’t look down on people who can’t drive.
I love lamb[s]. They are soft and fluffy and proverbially gentle.
They’re just not edible. Taste a lot like sheep, they do.
You mean he was actually Satan, and not just possessed by him? 
How about the ones who can’t drive, yet refuse to acknowledge the fact; can we look down on them?
The Beatles sound, like most British pop artists, like whining children nagging for icecream. Unbearable.
Not people having no children, but people having children are egoistic.
Small children are not sweet, but mostly nasty.
Dog owners need an ego boost. Otherwise they would not own a dog.
Nobody needs a gun in a civil society.
Children’s minds are not damaged by seeing nudity but by being obsessed with not having them see nudity,
Journalists are worse than lawyers. Well, almost.
People on government assistance are not necessarily lazy. I mean, some of them may be, but many aren’t.
I was going to say exactly this. I had some tense moments when I was younger and my grandfather would drive me somewhere.
…
He would also smoke in the car with the windows up and heaven help you if you sat next to him at dinner…you be lucky to eat 1/2 your meal before he got to it.
Most of these are things I’ve posted before so I don’t think they’ll be a vapour-inducing surprise to anyone.
In no particular order:
-
I think Colonialism can, in certain circumstances, be a good thing.
-
Tipping should be banned and staff should be paid a living wage.
-
A corporation’s duty (after being profitable) should be to the community is services and the people who work there above shareholders. If a company is making considerable profits, they should not be able to lay off staff to make an even larger proft for the sake of their share price/shareholders.
-
Political Correctness is one of the worst and most harmful things to happen to Western Civilisation since World War II.
-
White, heterosexual men can be, and are, discriminated against.
-
People should not be allowed to advocate in any serious way for the banning or draconian restriction of things they do not understand or object to purely on religious grounds. You don’t have to be an expert on the subject but you need to know how it works and need something exponentially better than “I don’t like X and anyone who does is a bad person!” as a reason.
-
Censorship is, in some cases, acceptable or even necessary.
-
It is absurd that hunting animals with a firearm is seen as “barbaric” or “murder” by so many people, yet fishing is seen as a socially acceptable Manly Activity.
-
If the Japanese (or anyone else) want to hunt “least concern”-category whales like the Minke, let them.
-
Many instant coffees are actually pretty good.
A person’s sex life is nobody’s damn business except themselves, their current partner and their doctor.
That reality is kaleidoscopic in nature and much like fish in a barrel we/they don’t understand how much is truly out there, after all fish swim the same way in a barrel as the do the oceans
And the people who have to pay for the result of their ‘love’.
The importance of breakfast is way overstated.
Yes!
On a completely unrelated note:
Not sure if it counts as an opinion, really, but I can’t see why anyone would get their panties in a twist about homosexuality, tattoos or piercings. These are all just completely mundane parts of everyday reality to me.
Ah, here’s an unpopular opinion I have. (It’s hard to think of these.)
I think basing any decision primarily on the monetary angle is just another form of greed and should be discouraged. Money should only come in as a secondary concern to achieve some other goal. And, even then, a good moral argument should outweigh even that.
I think pharmaceutical companies should skip animal trials (within reason) for certain medication or supplements, and give them straight to the most deranged/violent/troublesome of inmates.
