You're wasting your time Colin, Jeremy doesn't care for other peoples opinions. No matter how outweighed he is, he is the only one with the balls to represent the correct side of any argument and the rest of us are just typical immoral cowards. I value his one even more than the others. He is right, let him have it and this thread will disapear. Even the thread he created to talk about this thread will dissapear. And then we can get back to behaving like adults.

David, sometimes I wonder if you'll ever learn. When have I EVER disrespected your believes unless my were disrespected first and I was just pissed off or something? Not many. How much objectionable stuff (that I think is ok) do you see me post in the lounge, not much? Really David, you need to look past your own bias and hate if you ever plan on becoming wise.

It's not just the bum, but yeah it's the nudity aspect of it that's already been addressed up yonder.

The nudity. For one, people can get a trouble over here for watching that at work and getting caught. For two, kids don't need to be watching it for a lot of reasons, but I'll keep that list for an SB discussion one day.

Keep in mind I didn't watch the entire videos. I stopped after after the old dude came into the scene. If it got really violent after that, I am not aware of it.

I mean, this ain't a question of how you feel about it (not you, generalizing), it's a question of where it belongs and that is the SB.
My personal opinion is that this is borderline - If I'd posted the link I would have gone for the SB just to be on the safe side although I would not (am not) offended by it being in the lounge.

That's the whole point. I'm not offended by some stuff I won't say in the lounge either. And yet, I still don't post it in the lounge. The point is, a lot of people do find it offensive. My main point is nudity, sex, etc. is the only controversial subject that doesn't get automatically shunned here (notice the thread is still not in the SB) and it's sad to see such blatant hypocrisy. Sad enough in fact I considered leaving CP at several points (no, I'm not threatening to do so like some retards, just saying my thoughts on the matter). I will say, if the people of CP don't stand up for what's right, then I'm really just starting to care less about this community and the stupidity behind it.

Nudity is not wrong - we were all born nude and it weren't for the repression our culture instills in us we would continue to be nude. There is no sex in the clip. All nudity was asexual. It would be like demanding that a nature program clothe a bear or monkey.

How do you define "what is right"? Everyone has different ideas. CP has to cater for many cultures so some tolerance at the boundaries is needed by all.

Yeah it is, especially for children. Either way you're looking to argue so much you're still missing the point. It doesn't matter if you personally find it wrong or not. You do not represent everyone here. We all do collectively. There's a lot of things you find offensive that I don't, and yet I do not promote or condone this in the lounge either. You can say you think it's ok to show kids naked people until you're blue in the face. It won't change the fact not everyone agrees with you and anyone with half a brain knows this is a controversial topic.

Until children are born fully clothed nudity is not now, not ever wrong. It is because people get repressed that they think it is wrong.
Jeremy Falcon wrote:

Neither do you - Who are you to tell everyone what is and is not acceptable? It seems to me by reading the posts that most disagree with you. Of course, that does not make "them" right. Nor does it make you right either. I don't like the government of my country - However, they were elected in to office. I cannot write to the Queen and tell her that I don't agree with her government and she should disolve parliament and expect her to act on that letter, just because someone somewhere disagrees. I have to accept the will of the majority.

This is your opinion and doesn't have anything to do with my point. Why can't you see this? You're too busy trying to make me see your views rather than even address my point.

No, I'm addressing your point by pointing out that it is invalid because you, and others like you, are repressed individuals. The following photos are taken in Edinburgh City Centre on St. Andews Square. They are of statues that have been there for decades (the style of the building suggests 1920s) * http://www.flickr.com/photos/colinangusmackay/41942187/in/set-72501/[^] * http://www.flickr.com/photos/colinangusmackay/41941917/in/set-72501/[^] You probably don't want to click on the links becuase by your standards they are extremely offensive and you'd probably petition Edinburgh City council to tear them down to protect the children. I'm showing them to you (or at least telling you about them - it is your choice to click the link) to save you the bother of even visiting Edinburgh because I just know you'll be offended and I really would not want anyone visiting my home town and get offended by anything because it really is such a nice place, expecially at this time of year with everything they put on for the kids.

Are you really this stubborn? If I'm in an argument and the majority are disagreeing with me, I stand back and examine my point of view. If I decide I'm wrong then I normally say so. If I decide I'm right then I have a think about whether I'm presenting my views in the correct way - this normally involves keeping out of the argument for a while until I've cooled down somewhat.
