Wow...never knew this was America's number 1 topic.
Just joined and saw this in the frat's section. Heated convo eh?
This is the way I see it. There's a poem I'm sure we all had to memorize/learn/live with by the name of Inviticus which I will use to argue my point of view
"Out of the darkness that covers me
Black as the pit from pole to pole
I thank whatever gods maybe
for my UNCONQUERABLE SOUL."
-The human spirit is quite strong. However we, as human, don't truly live up to our potential. We were made in the image of God....nuff said.
"In the fell cluthes of circumstance
I have not winched nor cried aloud.
In the bludgeoning(check my spelling) of chance
My head is BLOODIED BUT UNBOWED."
-Whoever said it'd be easy. Blood, sweat, and tears come from experience. Sometimes we have to make a mistake in order to never do it again. In defense of the Six that made the mistake(Professor), I say that we all have the potential to cheat provided that we are put in the right place at the right time. Never said it was right though. Again, we are human.
"In this place of wrath and tears
Looms the horror of the shade.
And yet the menace of the years
Finds me and shall FIND ME UNAFRAID."
-Be a man or woman and face the consequences of your decisions. It's a part of maturity.
"It matters not how strait the gate
How charged with punishment the scroll
For I AM THE MASTER OF MY FATE
and the CAPTAIN OF MY SOUL."
-One of God's greatest gifts to mankind/womankind is the power of choice. Please use it wisely.
And it's not just to the brothers either. This is to women too! I've been burnt before. And I never cheated in my life!! Stop this idiotic cycle of pain and frustration here and now please.
That's my 6 cents!
