Really?
If I tell you your wife cheated on you with someone else. Is that statement really reversible? You're either going to hate my guts for lying or hate hers for cheating. You may find peace with it, but you can't un-hear that statement.
- SapphireSun 17y agoActually, if you hit yourself in the head really hard very soon after, it won't be committed to long term memory. Blissful ignorance! Now why does my head hurt?
- jrockway 17y agoI never argued that life is an exciting ball of non-stop enjoyment. Sad things happen. (And I may be a bit odd here, but I am not the jealous type. If you want to sleep with someone else from time to time, then do so. It's fun.) So my point is... I'm not even sure what we are arguing about anymore. Ending a healthy person's life without their consent "can be" less severe than intercepting their email... because life is not always 100% enjoyable? I still don't buy that.
- lucumo 17y agoI feel that making somebody's life a living hell can be more severe than simply ending it, yes. That's my opinion and I don't need you to agree with that. The point I'm making is that reasonable people can disagree on which is the more severe crime and which deserves the tougher sentence.
- jrockway 17y agoI don't think the word "reasonable" means what you think it means. Have you ever been dead before?
