As I've seen in here, the only way that you can have a logical debate is by calling your opponents idiots, hence my exiting the thread. Like I said, I'm not in the mood for a pissing contest, if you want to debate, that's fine. But, as long as you want to make it nothing more than name calling, I'm not going to bother.

And with that, I'm out.
Go look at our old drug debatesl. You don't have shit and you know it. You've never had it.

I've only labelled my opponents ONCE and I quickly edited it. Apologies given.

WAIT A SECOND!! Spec hold up.. Here I have seen reasons why Drugs are bad, but not ONCE do I see why they are GOOD. All you people yelling at Spectre and Sixate, Please... PLEASE tell me why you have NOT told us why its GOOD to use drugs. You bring up the idea of logic, yet you yell before you speak. If they cannot bring up a good reason (and never will (this was a bit harsh)) then why haven't you countered it with why its good? I am challenging you.. yes I said CHALLENGE. Show me why drugs are good. CONVINCE ME.. or else stop ranting and being rude to others who are debating.
They get you high for one. This elevates mood. Sometimes it simple, hedonistic pleasure. Other times it's for meditation or other non-hedonistic intentions. Go look on Erowid and look at their positive drug effects.

Drugs are neither bad nor good. They are objects that are put into play by others. Those who use drugs must exercise responsibility to avoid as many negative consequences as possible. Drugs are not harmless.

Those villifying drugs are not debating, dude, one just ran away without even addressing my point.

That drugs are harmful? I need not list the numerous studies, link vast library of stories, or state the far to often repeated warnings. You yourself have already proven my previous statement and would have shrugged them off as false, ironically enough like the people who opposed the thought that ciggerettes were harmful years before.
Oh, haha, studies? Like that one NIDA page with references you posted before the crash that you didn't understand a freaking word of that I completely annihilated by addressing them one by one?

I agree that drugs are not harmless. But just because one person out of the hundreds of thousands of drug users does something really bizarre doesn't mean it's in anyway typical. And just because some prostitute mom left drugs out and her kid got to them doesn't mean it was all drugs fault and that druggies are doomed to a lifetime of misery because it happened before.
