Thank you, and I can respect yours. My biggest problem is that it's a symptom of what I perceive as a larger problem, which is the death of any sense of "class" and respect in our society. Rather than referring to someone as friend or sir, people refer to each other as "n*****r" or b***h. It's absurd. Whatever happened to manners?

I think pets are unhygienic. The only pets people should be able to keep are little things that can be (humanely) kept in cages (big enough for their needs). Cats and dogs for instance climb up on beds, furniture, tables, worktops. It's gross. When a cat rubs its face against you, it is wiping disgusting cheek secretions onto you, marking you as it's territory. Tomcats that are not neutered have a tendency to spraying urine up your walls. Cats bring in dead birds and mice etc. and lay them on the floor. Cats sick up revolting, slimy hairballs, claw your furniture and crap all over the gardens of other (non-cat owning) people for their children and them to tread in. Dogs slobber everywhere, chew your possessions, unusually stink and hump objects. Dogs can spread toxicara. Cats can spread toxoplasmosis. Both can spread fleas into your home and leave their hairs all over your clothes and possessions.

Why anyone would want cats and dogs is beyond me. (I know some people do it for companionship but like I say, there are smaller creatures that don't have free reign to spread germs and vile things all over your home).

I actually agree with whirlingmind about cats and dogs. I love animals, but for the reason stated by whirlingmind I do not keep an animal at my place. It would drive me insane if I had one. When I visited someone who had a cat, I often found cat hair in the coffee he made for me. That was absolutely disgusting. I enjoyed being with that cat, but I could never have one at my place. When I visit a friend who has a dog, I always feel restless/uncomfortable because the dog touches me all the time. Again I think the dog's friendliness cheers me up, but I can only handle it for a short time.

This seems like it'd be an unpopular opinion on this site.

Bronies creep me out.

I don't like people.

I don't like people in general.

I think it should be required that all women or all men get some kind of procedure done at no cost when they are little that would prevent them from reproducing/becoming pregnant & they could get it reversed after they are adults for free when when they decide they are ready to have kids. It would stop the pro-life/pro-choice controversy.

Obamacare needs to be repealed, ASAP. Either that, or force Obama, his family, and all of the Senators and Representatives and their families to be on Obamacare as well. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

These are really strong beliefs of mine and I don't like debating them because seeing people in opposition to these makes me angry and frustrated.

Animals should not be treated like commodities or objects. They have feelings and do experience pain. I also hate the hierarchy humans have placed on living things...where some animals of equal intelligence are loved and others are tortured on a daily basis on horrible, crowded factory farms and treated like s***. In a perfect world for me, meat wouldn't exist, but I know that will never happen in my lifetime unless we get 3D printers producing faux meat and eliminating the need for suffering.

Also we seriously need to reduce the amount of waste in this world and need to find more ways to reuse the things we have. The western world's throwaway culture and need for "new things" seriously bothers me. When my friends rave over the latest iwhatever, I just want to scream and rant...but I don't. I hate outsourcing. People in China, Bangladesh, and other countries are being overworked and underpaid to produce things that we take for granted. This is why I don't like buying new things and why I try to own as little possessions as possible.

Outsourcing should be illegal.
