Question by Smokey: What is master/slave morality, will to power and such Nietzchian ideas exactly?
I understand Nietzche’s general concepts of humanity’s strive for meaning in life and the sort of retaliatory formulation of a slave morality in response to an overpowering master morality, but I’m still having trouble understanding other things he was trying to convey.

For instance, what exactly is an overman/superman/ubermensch supposed to be? Was Nietzsche in favor of a master morality’s original concepts or just nihilism in general? Is an overman supposed to become a proponent of one of these master moralities or one of nihilism or some form of “pseudo-nihilism”?

I ask, because I have what I consider a sort “pseudo-nihilistic” outlook on life, wherein I embrace existentialism and atheism whole-heartedly but also strongly take into consideration the importance of moralities/religions/metaphysical paradigms and ideologies; and I, much like a Chaos Magician, practice paradigm piracy of sorts, where I change and shift “metabeliefs” and philosophies depending merely on my mood.

Question by Adam H: Right-wing evangelicals: What exactly do you want gay people to do?
This “Hell” you speak of sounds like an interesting place, but since none of you can produce a map to show me the way, I can’t go (I suppose I could commit suicide but, *gasp*, that’s also a sin to you guys!) And I’d be happy to “choose” heterosexuality just as soon as you guys can create the magical spell to produce an emotional and sexual interest in women, which, believe it or not, gay men don’t have.

So with those two options off the table – going to Hell and “choosing” heterosexuality – precisely what is it that you evangelical Republicans want us to do? Please, by all means, enlighten us. Liberals, if you have been informed of their desires, feel free to answer as well!
Sorry to hear that “Mad as Hell”…maybe she wasn’t praying hard enough!
Cons 6: Being quiet won’t make me straight. Sorry! And liberals and gays aren’t the folks who have made abortion and gay marriage key political issues.

Brittany C: You’ve obviously been brainwashed by the fundies who believe in “reparative therapy”, which has been thoroughly repudiated by every qualified, peer-reviewed scientific study done on the matter. I could really care less about your anecdotal “proof” that someone is no longer gay. I cannot magically choose to be emotionally and sexually attracted to women – and gay people who say otherwise are simply lying about that key part of their personality.
ka3udr: In jail 3 times? Yes, you are CLEARLY a role model to spread moral enlightenment on the rest of us! God is good!
Also, I never even mentioned marriage. Why do right-wingers always assume that discussions about LGBT equality have to hinge on the marriage issue?

Answer by Curtis
Easy,,,,Just call gay marriage a “Civil Union”, and let the religious keep marriage.

The marriage license would be a Civil Union license, just the legal term would be Civil Union, and gays could say there are married, or whatever they want.

Gay couples have the same rights as a married couple, and the religious right is not offended by gays tearing down their religious values.

It is called compromise, but the radical left will not tolerate compromise, they are all about tearing down the religious values, and forcing their idealism on everyone.

Just as liberals do not want religion forced on them, but those same liberals want to force atheism on everyone else.

This whole issue is to offend the many, to facilitate the few.

Question by ptp: What exactly is this sex I hear so much about?
Okay I’m 16 so I know what actually happens in sex. With the poking and all… But I was just curious what other people thought about it? Is it something that is really fun and I should do it as soon as I can or is it something I should wait until I’m married too do so i can be more magical? Can someone tell me what they think about ‘sex’ so I can decide whether I should do it with my girl? Please tell me why you think that way about it too.
Okay how would I ever actually understand sex unless i have it?

Answer by Squishy
From my understanding, they are the pagans who do all ritual in chatrooms, with other pagans.

I could be wrong though, I prefer my ritual to be live action.
