I never thought I was very patriotic or anything, and have always wanted to get out of Canada... but the funny thing is, when I actually to get away from Canada and come to Europe I realize just how much I love Canada... I don't think I'll ever want to leave Canada... granted, Newfoundland IS a piece of shit part of Canada, but there's plenty of other places in Canada... so yeah, I'm pretty attached I think... |

Well.. I like norway.. I like living here, but I don't always agree with what the government is doing (like sending troops to aid the americans in iraq and wanting to privatize everything...). I would openly criticise the way this country is run on national televison, but I won't move away for more than a year at a time... |

i'm attached to a lot of things about these fair isles, and obviously fond of the city (Leeds) I grew up in... but I don't particularly care about our nationality. we can be part of an EU superstate for all I care (maintaining the right to determine our own domestic politics of course). nationalism/patriotism is the cause of far more strife in the world than religion/ethnicity. i think london's one of the most exciting cities in the world, and I'm gonna be moving there in september. yippedy yay! |

I'm very attached to Antarctica, mainly because it doesn't have many morons here, unlike every other country with Caucasians forming the majority of the citizenry (illegal immigrants not counting). I also like the fact that it is white, the colour of purity and chasteness, which I like to stain red with penguin blood during ancient antarctic rituals to make sure that the sun rises in October. I also like the fact that we Antarcticans are superior to every other race that ever existed and that ever will exist. We are practically perfect in every way. |

Poppycock. Everyone knows Drexcyans are the master race. |

I like a lot of the people you find in the UK, but I'm not patriotic, and I'm definetly not attached to the place. I'd much rather be somewhere where people bother living, and not just working and being pissed off all the time - Tokyo would be heaven! One of my best friends is about to move there. I can't deal with the UK unless I'm smoking weed pretty much constantly - Without weed I'd never bother leaving the house - There's too many miserable fucked up people everywhere, brings me down... No ambition, no direction, no lifestyle, either you get pissed a lot or you watch a lot of TV. With weed I become pretty oblivious to it and can actually have quite a good laugh. Great country to be a pot head - Couldn't deal with the crazy US police. |

i would be quite happy to live where i live (probably not the best place in the world but it's nice enough), if it wasn't for the government... |

i was born in france and live in dublin so feel more european than irish.... its pretty cheap to fly to anywhere in europe from here and thats great cos there is such diversity (but evergrowing homogeny too)..... ... the craic in dublin is great but i can't stand ex-pat irishness abroad. i'd avoid irsih pubs when travelling. |

With shitty education I would not make for living in any other country. That is one thing that connects me.... Then ummm... lets see... People are pieces of shit, culture below zero, daily back stabbing at work, canadian born people think they are super humans, canadian women are mainly whores.... But hey but we got forests! |

I'm proud to be a Canadian, I definitely have some national pride in my blood, and I don't plan on ever living anywhere else, at least not permanently. When Canada takes the World Cup of Hockey, you can be damn sure I'll be pimpin' the maple leaf. |

canadians are generally thought of as "intelligent americans," much in the same way as there is dance music, and Intelligent dance music... |

Not terribly. I love the landscape/scenery, I think most of our government are a bunch of pricks though. |

at least I can breathe unlike in some countries that don't have democracy so people suffocate because they don't have a right to vote because their lungs are used as voting boxes. With good education I would not make for living in this country... choice? Be a bum, study, move away and have a normal life OR work, have a normal life and suffer after age of 35 |

I have high regards for canada. A successful and multicultural social democracy with progressive policies in many areas: drug policing, integrating paedophiles back into the community, social security, etc. If only your bloated cousin south of the border would take greater note. Same goes for the nordic countries (esp. sweden) - progressive taxation, excellent social security and care for the disadvantaged (mentally ill etc.). Wonderful examples for the rest of the world. |

VLetr, yes but those multiply instead of being reduced. I am not a nazi or anything, but I do agree with Nazis when they say that healthy society is made up of healthy people... There are certain ways to approach health... It does not have to be a Nazi way. |

i hope you're ready for a roll-your-sleeves-up debate 3051, cos i get pretty militant about this kind of shit... :) are you saying that someone with schizophrenia should be abandoned by society and left to live on the street? by instigating a self-centred, thatcherite "survival of the fittest" type social policy, we merely increase the overall suffering of people in society, with a disproportionately large payoff for those at the top of the heap. and i don't think giving ill people a comfortable existence makes them more likely to "multiply". by allowing them to provide a better environment for their own children, we can influence their development away from a similar fate. poverty is the cause of most social problems. |

hmm.. imagine if sick people just multiplied by themselves if we kept feeding them... non-sexual reproduction.. kind of like "gremlins" haha! |

someone with schizophrenia should be cured not tortured with expensive medicine that does not do anything but slightly changes the mood and state of mind (same with other medicine... good example are my parents who had to order pharmacuticals from Germany... Unfourtenately they were not able to do so, so they switched to natural medicine. It helped them better then pills they are paying every month and that cost a fortune. Therefore medicine is used as a way to make money, not to help people). If you don't stop a pedophile from abusing children, such abuse MUST happen again. Sorry, but I am a person who would kill someone if I knew that my child was abused. |

have YOU got a cure for schizophrenia? don't you think they would cure it if they could? |

I can't just plug my ears say how everything is nice seeing a murderer called social democracy grow and expand each day... |

"a murderer called social deomcracy" ??? |

have YOU got a cure for schizophrenia? No but I have a cure for a high cholesterol and perhaps for prostate, and it is NOT medicine you can buy in a drug store. |

I think paedophilia needs to be seen as an illness, so people feel they can get it treated, rather than getting pushed underground. Agree with the pharmacuticals thing - The doctors put me on steroids and, basically, speed, to sort my asthma out - For years... Needless to say, it got worse, and I become less & less healthy - Eventually I stumbled across a simple breathing exercise and managed to cure myself pretty much completely in about 2 months. Around the same time they'd tried to put me on citalopram and valium for anxiety - Never took it, the anxiety just went as soon as my breathing was sorted... Do I have any faith in the health service? No. |

not very fond of the current administration, but i love the wide array of climates and terrains in the us. and, most of the people i know and like are here. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The problem with pharmacuticals is they always cure the symptoms, and rarely even consider the causes. I think every cause of schizophrenia is a little different - So doctors need to look carefully at the patient and consider all options... Nicotene has very strong links with schizophrenia I hear. |

*puts on debating gloves* Psychosis as drunken says, of course if we had a 'cure' it would be utilised. antipsychotic medication, combined with cognitive behavioural therapy and other psychosocial interventions, is the best we have at present. if you had ever worked in a psychiatric environment, you would not dismiss such medications as causing a "slight change in mood and state of mind". perhaps you are talking about the older generation of antipsychotics, rather than the much more effective atypical ones (eg. clozapine) which emerged in the 1990s. it's a significant change which removes the suffering of horrifying hallucinations. granted it's not getting at the root cause, but that's why we need more money for research, which is why I admire countries like canada and sweden. The rehabilitation of paedophiles Clearly we must stop paedophiles from offending again. (One particularly good reason being that most paedophiles were themselves abused as children... suffering begats further suffering). The Circles project in Canada has provided evidence that accepting paedophiles back into the community reduces the risk that they will reoffend. If an offender is ostracized, isolated and hated in his community - spat at, chased in the street, left with nothing to live for - what on earth is to stop him from offending again? There is nothing left in his life besides pain and rejection, so he will fall back in despair to his basest pleasure, even though he knows it to be wrong. |
