I can respect the person without respecting their opinion. For all I know you're a pretty swell person; I just think that wanting to live in a world of constant combat against things that can kill you is foolish. It's the same as if you told me you hated my favorite pairing, or even outright insulted it - sure, it'd sting a little, but honestly, we all have a right to state our stance on the issue. Get over it.

Sure you have a right to state your stance, but you're acting as though the other person's stance is completely ridiculous when it isn't necessarily. And there was probably a more respectful way of saying it than what you said.

Sure, you may think there's better ways to live, but we didn't always have the convenience of not needing to fight for life the way we do today. And perhaps some people would prefer they didn't. I think it's like someone thinking they were born too late, and would have rather been born at the turn of the century, or in the Victorian era, or the Elizabethan era, or even Ancient Egypt or whatever. Sure, most people would be like OMGNOELECTRICITY or whatever but for that person, they know that there wouldn't be electricity and they still want to live back then.

I'm not changing my opinion, but after thinking about it, I probably did come off a little rude. For that, I apoligize.

It's still a little tough for me to grasp the concept of "I should have been born in the past" that a bunch of people seem to get. Then again, I don't grasp a lot of concepts because sometimes I fail at life.

Haha, it's probably not a case of failing at life so much as being happy with what you have. If you're content as you are, then sure you're not going to be able to see why people would want a change like that.

Actually, I just got over a year-long case of depression. I know what it's like to be unhappy with your life, but through hard work on my part and on my family and friends' part, I was able to enjoy life again. Maybe it just riled me up because I'd been there, and looking back I'm kind of like "...WTF was I thinking?"

oh, and this isn't the same person. Sorry!

I am over it, or rather was.

You're the one being deliberately standoffish here. Read over the thread again. You asked a question (and insinuated that all people who think this way are aaaangsty and eeeeemo and hate their lives while doing so) and I answered it more nicely than I probably should have.

I'm going back to being over it, now.
