    "But we are still animals but collectiblely we are not". So you agree that we are animals and animals are a part of nature.

    What makes up this collective again? Animals who as you've said are a part of nature. The human brain is a product of nature is it not. So how the fcuk could anything we do be considered unnatural.

    But the collective is the culture the civilisation that is when we step above nature. I can't give into a whim or murder someone when inside me I wish I could . I can no longer act on animal instincts because of the civilisation.

    So I am an animal I have animal urges, but I don't express these which is not natural. I know that is simplistic, but generally true.

    You waffle on about what's "natural" and then ask what animals have to do with anything? While posting on the highly unnatural internet?

    ok

    Kila?

    Kila are one of the best bands on the face of this planet. If you want your mind blown away, get their Best of.

    Edit: The Chieftains were also brilliant.

    Moving Hearts? Though maybe not traditional enough for some.

    The human mind created civilisation and culture. In packs of animals its not always cool to just kill another member for the craic. There are hierarchies, dos and donts

    I was talking about human nature and behavioural patterns the point about the internet has no relevance whats so ever and so do the points about animals.Your just trying to cherrypick an argument because it goes against your personal beliefs.You should also read the thread title

    An awful lot of human nature occurs due to our 'reptilian brains' (yes, you have this inside you too!)

    I for no apparent reason believe that Craig doyle should be publicly flogged in front of the GPO.

    Not sure why but he annoys me so much!!!

    Private companies told they have to pay sick pay to their employees, they can complain in peace without being unrealistically compared with levels of sick pay in other countries.

    I think it's a good idea...we as a nation can't afford to be forking out money to private company employees. Cutbacks need to be made.

    Perpetuating the idea to young females that 'sex should be with someone you love' or 'your first time should be special' can be very detrimental to them in a lot of ways and shouldn't be encouraged.

    Pigeons are cool.
