Responsibility & Right & Wrong Quote:
 - The responsibility doesn't rest with Nobel, but rather wartime profiteers like the Dupont family of the U.S. :/ - One wartime invention is the computer, and look at it today, we have these assclowns that have access to them. |

| kellychaos | Don't get me wrong. I agree with the sentiment of the prize. It's just the fact that he seemed suprised at the direction his invention went. I mean that we're talking about human nature here. If anything, it reminds us of the fact that with knowledge and technological advancement comes responsibility. Ironically, though, some of the most useful technology to benefit peacetime humanity came as a result of technology that was based on wartime need. :/ | ||

| Zero Signal | So, by extension, should we cease all research into fusion reactors, because ultimately they could be used for creating a destructive device? With that logic, we should have never advanced beyond the dark ages. | ||

| El Blanco | In Nobels's defense, he invented dynamite to be used to clear land for building and things like that, not for annihilating groups of people. | ||

| VinceZeb | You would be the best person for the award, Maxipad. A nice big appeaser such as yourself getting a Peace prize. | ||

| mburbank | EXACTLY why I want it. There needs to be a huge push to get me that damn prize. | ||

I don't see why anybody would want an award that Henry Kissinger won. A murdering, war-waging bastard being given a Peace prize named after a guy who invented an explosive is a veritable black hole of irony. So dense, no logic can escape it. ________ HONDA CBR900RR SPECIFICATIONS |

The Nobel Prize is inherently ironic because Nobel himself is the man who invented dynamite. So, I guess it's sort of appropriate to nominate a couple of war-hawks. ________ Motorcycle Tires |

Bush and Blair for Nobel's Peace Prize? WTF! A Norwegian politician just formally suggested to the Nobel commitee that Bush and Blair should receive the Nobel Peace Prize. They might as well, I guess; they gave one to Arafat, didn't they?  Let's make it even more meaningless by giving it to those that start wars! Yay! |
