Repeating a tired old cliche doesn't make it any more true. And it's atheist. Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers    -    http://www.maaf.info/ Reading all the posts putting down wicca is kind of funny. "My superstition is better than your superstition!!" But I agree that the...

Well said. paracowboy: "The fact that this is about Faith and Belief means that you will never believe that you are missing something, and I will always believe that you are. I have no intention of getting into a debate with you. I've been where you are now. I've progressed beyond it, and...

In 1986 or 87 the Strat officers visited the Batoche battlefield site. There is a beautiful, large, expensive interpretive centre where they showed a presentation of the battle with pictures, movies, mannequins, automated actors. All the trimmings, very well done and impressive. Very biased...

My most humble apologies for making you read my whining posts. If it's a recurring theme, maybe there is something to it. Because my, and a few others, opinion is in the minority doesn't mean it is wrong. It just means it is not in agreement with the majority at the moment. Sort of like voting...

I don't worry about it enough to do that. Besides from what I have read of his posts expressing his support for the way the moderators operate I have no doubt that my opinion is in variance with his, and him being the owner - wins. I have no problem with that. I don't recall proposing zero...

Manimal, there is no issue to sweep under the rug. The moderators and senior members of this board have stated their position that they believe their policies are good and make this board better than others out there. If you don't like it, too bad. Like so much else in life there is nothing you...

As a huge Farscape fan I was looking forward to the show with both Ben and Claudia on it. However I just can't find anything interesting about the character played by Ben. And Claudia's seems to be there for comic relief. If Claudia still didn't look so hot (to this old guy), I don't know if I'd...

I think my wife and I are helping the industry as well. We get Red Rose and Tetley shipped down by relatives all the time - we go through about a pot a day. There is Red Rose here but it's mixed orange pekoe and black, just not the same. Don't accuse me of bashing!! The wife is the tea snob  :)

I can remember golfing out at the Hartlen Point course as a kid and watching Sea Kings doing manoeuvres about 50 yards from the third hole tee box. The scary thing is that was almost 30 years ago and it's probably the same Sea King mentioned above.

Hopefully they take such things more seriously these days. At a Bde Offrs study in Comox in 86(?) an arty full Colonel in charge of army clothing procurement reacted with shock and surprise when asked when the absolutely horrible rain gear was going to be replaced. "I didn't know there was a...

So the west is going to save the rest of the world from itself and reshape it in our image? And who gets to chose which countries meet the criteria for 'regime change required?' Bush and his successors? This would amount to a perpetual state of war that would give those western governments...

I saw that show for the first time last night on BBC America. It was quite entertaining and showed a different side to Ramsey for those of us who've only seen him on Hell's Kitchen. Yes, we watch that too, it's good stuff.

I'm well aware that ds can make comments as posters. I also freely admit my personal dislike for the politics and policies of President George W Bush ( ;) 2Cdo). Now, I don't care if you think I shouldn't be critical of US politics while I live here. I guess I'm supposed to quit my job, tell the...

Gee, I think it's been a couple of months since one of the ds told me where I should be living. I guess I've slowed down. I think you're tied at two with Bruce M in the "lets tell sigpig where he shouldn't live sweepstakes." Don't worry, with the way shrub and his pals are going I'm sure it'll...

Very well said. As an atheist I regularly post on christianforums and the way the 'good christians' there beat the living hell out of each other is just astounding, and sad but funny. Every flavour, every version is the 'right one.' Much as we see here, different man-made interpretations of ...

Hang in there Johnson, not everyone on this site is a right wing Bush apologist, it just seems that way  :D So, we ignore the Downing Street memo's for now. We still have an unneeded, unnescessary war in Iraq brought to you by Team Chimpy. Even before reading that article I had thought of the...

Can anyone pm me a site that has this horrendous picture? Obviously I didn't see it but from the description it sounds funny. I understand Mike saying screw it and deleting the picture instead of dealing with the crap. But then we all find ourselves at the mercy of one person with no sense of...

That's little more than half an hour from where I live and I never saw that on the news. And they love to show cops tasing people on the news down here. Happens quite often. That was pretty funny. Her attitude was astounding considering the cops down here are famous for having a short fuse and...

I googled the dome and it looks very interesting. Wish they had something like that in my younger days. Will definitely have to check it out. Thanks for all the info guys..
