My Real Life Heroes.

#1. Yuri Gargin.

.....My mom....Yes I said it.

" .....My mom....Yes I said it. "

Jesus ,my parents, and people who rise above the norm to achieve things that really do the world some good.

" @Caligula: :D...Question for you....Is you're mom a hero for you too? ( Just asking) "

" @Caligula: O_O...I'm sorry for bringing on the question dude. :( "

" @Caligula:  Dude! Your my mirror image! Your heroes and family circumstance! *tips top hat that has mysterious manifested on my head* 

I love watching Dawkins teaching kids science when he was much younger. You have probably seen those videos, but if you haven't, let me know. I like him still, but it was nice seeing him discuss a subject that wasn't as frustrating. lol

" @SC: Also I never thought I'd have anything in common with a Kiwi! :P "

LOL

Maybe I should come to you for recommendations then. Gotta love Youtube! Its a beautiful thing. I sorta feel sorry for all the people that lived before it who never really probably got a chance to hear Dawkings, Hitchens, Sagan, Carlin, Feynman, and so many more speak. I think the world would be a better place with some of those dudes given more exposure.

George Lucas (For original trilogy and foundation of that universe)
Ect.

" @Caligula: 

But I want to see more of your heroes!

"

thumbs up for picking Lloyd. he's a personal inspiration to me as well, most especially for taking the initiative to build a dream
out of only what was around him, which was the community in which he lived, and succeeding at that wild improbable.

" @Caligula: 

What about good old Stephen Hawking?

"

...................................................................................... Um. I have no real life heroes. They're all fictional. Crap.

I haven't read much of his work. I don't feel one way or another about him, being that I haven't really gotten to know his ideas or writings. To make an assessment on him would be unfair on my part.I know he is quite fond of Black Holes, Space, and Time-Travel. But no specifics. "

Mine;

• Soren Kierkegaard
• Lenin
• Maximilien Robespierre
• Jean-Jacques Rousseau
• Niccoló Machiavelli 
• Grant Morrison

Nice list, save for Dawkins. He's the worst human being to ever live as far as I'm concerned. "

i have no heroes other than my mom.
But, there are those i admire and respect.

Geronimo
Poncho Villa
John Riley

" @Caligula: He's an Evangelical Atheist who condemns any form of Spiritual Belief, Evangelical or not.

" @Caligula: He's a hypocrite and a childish, pseudo-intellectual who will argue a point using absurd examples masquerading as logic. "

" @Caligula:  He has been known to lose his cool when confronted with someone who's more intelligent than him, or who can dismiss his arguments as the garbage that they are. "

because he sees spiritual beliefs as intellectual death. if you think "god or gods" is the answer you stop looking for answers, because well it must be "god". when how do you know unless you keep questioning and searching.

Can I see and example of this? a video or something concrete.

@FadeToBlackBolt said:

" @Caligula:  He has been known to lose his cool when confronted with someone who's more intelligent than him, or who can dismiss his arguments as the garbage that they are. "

again my I see and example of this?
I've only seen him get angered when people use circular logic, and dismiss his arguments without proving them false.



@FadeToBlackBolt: you seem to be calling him the worst person on earth because he disagrees with religion. yet there are still people like Osams Bin Laden out there. "

" @FadeToBlackBolt:  you make a lot of claims about him with no evidence.you also seem to have a very hostile attitude, (I do as well sometimes) But I would never want to see them dead or incinerated as you stated. "

Hmm...

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (peacfully fought for and died for civil rights of all Americans)
George A. Romero (Created the modern zombie)
Theodore Roosevelt (A man's man of a president)
My Father (Although he has been incredibly hard to put up with sometimes, the man did give his time to the LAPD to protect and serve the city of Angles, and before that he was willing to give his life for his country in the Marine Corp.)
My Mother (For putting up with us five kids and my father)
Paul (A persecutor of Christians turned spokesman, he wrote most of the New Testament and had no problems proclaiming his faith to anyone)
Jesus (Yeah yeah, say what you want, but when God comes down to earth to be tortured and killed on a giant piece of 2x4 for me and the rest of the world's sins, how can I not include him?)
and a big shout out to the human race (Yeah, we are well known for being selfish and bad, but we can't truly be evil to not help one another out in times of good and times of bad: we may not be my biggest hero, but we've done some pretty cool things.)

It's just how I interpret things I guess. I hope you didn't take any offence by what I've said. I really like and respect you as a user. I'm a very angry person. I'm largely non-violent, but I also have a s*** life that's made me very misanthropic. "

No, you are one of my favorite users. I too get angry, hell I was banned for saying some very offensive things to christians. I understand where you are coming from. all I'm saying is I wouldn't wish my anyone dead for their beliefs. But I'm not holding it against you.While I disagree very strongly with your belief in god, I still like you as person and find you very intelligent. and still a great user. "

Thank you very much, the feeling is mutual =]

Besides, who cares about belief differences, we both know the one true savior;
