• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Genocides of Indigenous Peoples: Evil or Necessary?

    That last part was the concept exactly. Those who advocated and carried out the destruction of the Native peoples didn't see people. They saw sub-human savages who either had to assimilate, move to somewhere that wasn't being used or be killed. It isn't imperialism in the terms we all...

    Egypt Protests

    Also, no fight has begun. I think we can all agree that democracy is the best path for Egypt; I am just skeptical on how it will play out. I believe it is a far more rocky road than the media makes it appear.

    Genocides of Indigenous Peoples: Evil or Necessary?

    Wouldn't that be redundant considering no one is against genocide. This topic is specifically about if the destruction of native groups was an unnecessary evil or an event that had to happen.

    The Most Hated Pokemon Ever

    Honestly, I really hate Treecko.

    Genocides of Indigenous Peoples: Evil or Necessary?

    What a wonderful contribution to the discussion, bravo. When it comes down to it, history in America is indeed censored and everything in a history textbook is put there after a panel of Democrats and Republicans fight it out over every footnote. What is put in the book tends to be altered or...

    Open Era of Escape: Days of the Damned

    "Johnna Gale?" Jake stated out-load. "I thought you would least be able to get out of being captured...at least based on what I heard about you." The man groaned loudly and just sat where he was. He started to think about what this was all about. To his knowledge Team Rocket was ousted from any...

    Hello

    Thank you, this should be enjoyable.

    Open Era of Escape: Days of the Damned

    Jake turned to see a man next to him who he just noticed. He nodded. "It seems like we were all ambushed, imprisoned and had our Pokemon taken away. Welcome to the club stranger...the name is Jake Reynolds." He sighed at the end of the sentence...imprisonment was fine for him since he could...

    Open Era of Escape: Days of the Damned

    Jake noticed there was no response to his statement. He listed to hear bits of dialogue popping up around him. He tugged at the chains again...his hat tipped off his head and floated down to the ground. The soft "POOF" sound the bowl-shaped hat made as it hit the dusted ground echoed oddly over...

    Genocides of Indigenous Peoples: Evil or Necessary?

    Well, no one is in favor of genocide. But there are those who are willing to call what happened to the natives as necessary for advancement. Columbus Day shouldn't be fully abolished. He did find the new world but we should make it all fluffy and good...perhaps we can end the parades.

    Open Era of Escape: Days of the Damned

    Jake awoke in a cell across the hall. He grunted bluntly when he tried to move his right arm but with no avail. The loud clang of metal against the wall causes his eyes to shoot open; shortly after all his other senses registered that something wasn't right. His left arm tugged - same clang. He...

    Genocides of Indigenous Peoples: Evil or Necessary?

    One of the few things usually left out of context or simply ignored in American history books is the displacement, destruction and out-right genocide of native groups...specifically on the Great Plains. This is my professional area of study but it is still early on...so I can't comment on the...

    Egypt Protests

    Here is the question and it goes back to the Enlightenment and the American Revolution: Can man rule himself? Can democracy exist in the Middle East? I hope so, but there is a bit of a poor track record. 1978-1979: Iran; started just like Egypt and played out just like Egypt. Difference is...

    Political Compass

    Is that some kind of political challenge? If so, I am sure the Serious Business board could handle a nice political skirmish. Otherwise, this is hardly the place to question political values - this is all a number's game and can mean anything. It all comes down to the issues in the long run...
