    I reject the idea that earth is a crapy element, sure the fire nation could purify metals??? make steam engines, industrialize, and for some reason (*cough* Nick forbids it *cough*) NOT develop guns, cannons and rockets (despite having firecrackers), but instead have catapults that shoot flaming bombs. Why earth does not have catapults that throw rocks is beyond me (duh!) but earth has a huge resource at its disposal, even more of it then Canada (Sing the Kilted Yak Nation Anthem NOW!) yes I???m talking about DIRT! Dirt, yes you can eat it, wear it, play with it, squish it between your toes, oh did I mention you can build with it? You can build a little house of dirt enviable to 2 out of 3 pigs, you can build a bridge, a long bridge, you can build a wall, 10m, 100m, no 1km tall and thousand of km long, you can build huge cities out of mountain tops, and why not build trains out of dirt that you move with your mind? You could even build a dirt mail transport system moving mail around in dirt carts up and down incredibly fun slides that no one rides! Why the architectural and logistical abilities of dirt are so amazing I don???t see any reason at all to develop much technology if you hand complete telekinetic control over this stuff.
    were not saying earth is a crappy element theyre trying to say there are alot of dummies there but the person who made this thread didnt think before he acted


    ok come on that easy to answer: their heads are full of rocks.

    I personally think girls are just as strong as guys, ITs just that they dont have to be. Where I come from If you are a boy then you have to be strong or else you suck. If You are a girl you just have to look good. Girls could be just has strong as guys its just that most of them dont have a need to.

    NOT!!
    Wow. That argument totally changes my view. So, um, just to be sure we're on the same wavelength, what is your argument?
    when you learn more about fire and firebenders get bak to me
    Oh come on. How am I supposed to win an argument against such a talented debater?
    figure something out...
    I don't think I can. Maybe I should ask someone as wise as you. Hey, Patrick Star... Alright, let's be serious for a few minutes. Why would the Fire Nation NOT be more advanced than the other nations?
    maybe the fact that they use ALOT of their resources to make um weapons?

    Then that would mean they ARE more advanced.

    Man, I'm good at this arguing thing. I don't even have to say anything.

    oh yes a country that uses most of their resources on weapons when they can be making life better for homeless people is a VERY advanced country.

    Yes, but then there'd be no avatar. Also, if you just work on technology that's not war related, you end up getting your a$$ run over by the ones that do. And America. America Pwns all or at least ties(like Vietnam. Vietnam was a tie). We may not have won all our wars, but we haven't actually lost any either(I'm talking to you Germany, Britain, France, Japan, China, Spain, Mexico, Cuba(I think). I'm not sure if Canada has lost anything yet.

    ok first of all the avatar doesnt exist to fight the fire nation.the avatar exists to maintain peace.its true that the fire nation is his main problem right now but thats not why the avatar exists. secondly im noy saying they should not make weapons, im saying they shouldnt??focus most of??their resources on 1 thing. and oh i just remembered. the fire nation starts most of the wars they fight in anyway
