I'm not rude enough to just stop talking to someone when they're talking to me.
Sorry.
There are no words coming from my mouth.
Why can't you accept drugs are not for you but some people enjoy and like them but don't come to harm? That people you live around, socialise and maybe work with take drugs yet you wouldn't have a clue?
In my personal experience, since taking drugs, I'm much more open minded, I'm also a lot calmer and less judgmental. They have made me see the world in a whole new light.
There's nothing wrong in not wanting to do something but judging people incorrectly is.
Don't get me wrong though, there is a bad side, certainly to some drugs, I've seen it with my own eyes.
Lets hope your intelligent enough to stop responding then, cos this isnt really going anywhere.
If you post then it's common knowledge people may reply to it. Don't complain when they do. It's what this place is for.
There ARE members of my friends and family that take drugs.
I know about it, I don't understand why someone would think I wouldn't know about it.
Just because they do it + I love them doesn't mean I think it's right.
If I didn't think it was wrong, I would be doing them myself.
Would I not?
So if I think it's wrong, why shouldn't I think other people are wrong in doing them?
They are.
IN MY OPINION.
I understand people enjoy them.
It's up to them.
That doesn't mean I can't have an opinion on them doing so.
LOL @ thinking that will work.
I'm too stubborn to stop replying because someone dislikes my views, sorry.
Ask the other 'intelligent' people in this forum to stop replying to ME.
I accept, and respect, that other people have different opinions to me.
It just seems that other posters here don't.
How d'you figure that? I don't think they're wrong, but I don't do them. I don't think eating pizza is wrong, yet I don't do that either.
We are different people...
I haven't seen any disrespect of the fact that you have a different opinion to anyone else, or your right to express it. People don't respect your opinion, because they feel it's misinformed, but they have respected your right to express that opinion entirely. Asking for justification or your reasons isn't disrespect, especially when you have put your opinion on a public forum of which the very purpose is for people to challenge and discuss each others opinions.
The reason I perhaps thought you knew nothing off them, is because, quite frankly you sound like you haven't got a clue. Now I'm not slating you but coming from a drug user, your opinion is no where near what drug use is actually like. None of my friends are dim because they take drugs. In fact, one of my best friends who smokes countless amounts of weed is the most intelligent person I know, with a blossoming and envious career. His drug taking has nothing to do with and never effects his working life.
Can you at least see any of our points after the debating in this thread? I can cerainly understand someone not wanting to take drugs.
Thanks for pointing that out. My point is that your post seemed to suggest that the only reason for not doing something is that you feel it is wrong. Whereas in reality, there are a million reasons why I might choose not to do something, and I suspect the same applies to you, considering there are hundreds of things that you don't do, sports you don't play, things you don't eat, music you don't listen to, yet I suspect don't consider to be "wrong".
I would disagree.
/shrug.
Probably could have worded it better.
I understand what you're saying, but I think people are missing my point.
I don't mean it in such a way that once you take drugs your IQ lowers.
I think in order to do drugs you must be stupid. Regardless of how 'intelligent' your career, exams or whatever deem you as.
I think it's a common sense thing really.
As in, in order to do drugs you must have little or no common sense, which far outweighs any other form of 'intelligence' you might have.
It's just an opinion. /Shrug.
I don't know great amounts about drugs, but I have seen some of it's affects.
Just because people think I'm 'mis informed' doesn't mean I don't know people who do them.
It was a rhetorical question.
I could have worded it better.
My baddddd.
It's me doing just that.
I think, from what the media portray as drug usage, then yes someone would be pretty stupid to want to try drugs.
Drugs in reality, are not actually anything like that. I guess you only really can find that out if you look into usaage with unbiased hard facts and actually get into the 'scene'.
I personally love them, I hung around with other users for a while before taking them. I saw with my own eyes they weren't bad. As before I hung out with these people, I swore I'd never take drugs because I thought they were all bad.
My opinion drastically changed.
Aha.
I'd formed an opinion on them before the people I'm close to started drugs.
I've only really known about the effect it had recently, so my opinion isn't really based on that.
There really is nothing that would ever change my mind.
Drugs are pointless in my opinion, which is also why I'd never even bother.
I don't understand why anyone would want to try at all.
Perhaps they have better things to do that argure with you. If your so closed minded and unwilling to learning about new things, why the fuck should I care ??
Maybe you missed the point.
I wasn't talking about people who simply stop posting.
+ I'm not asking you to care.
I'm not closed minded.:eek2:
Is there no other way to have a good time, though?
I know people enjoy the experience, but I honestly don't think that's a good enough reason to warrant drug use.
Amen!
Gosh.
Yea, sure you're not.
close-minded definition: stubbornly unreceptive to new ideas.
Seeing as you've said NOTHING could ever change your opinion on drugs, I'm pretty sure you're stubbornly unreceptive to new ideas.
You're close-minded. I'd also predict you're about 16 given the way you 'debate'.
Another opinion without any reasoning behind it or retort to what I said. :rolleyes: Should I be surprised?
And on the other hand, some people never shut up despite being proved completely ignorant about something, and continue digging themselves into a hole.
