well, this thread is about the attack in London and in that light it is appropriate to discuss religion since islamic terrorism by definition is an activity to destroy societies based on a different belief system. By the way you are Bible-bashing....you meant to call me Bible-thumping...interesting coincidence by the way how the vile hatred spewed by the atheist as soon as a challange is issued against their "faith". The name was proposed for a production company dedicated to pump out unlimited number of scripts for strait-to-dvd cheesy horror movies. Outpost 31 was eventually chosen...

Quote: from KillerFlix on 11:48 am on July 8, 2005 You called it Duffy! I am surprised it took 4 pages for the first pro-terrorist comment to show up...
I spent an hour listening (wasting my time) to a radio show today, with some freak talking about how the terrorists are just misunderstood, that they need to be forgiven, that a show of compassion is what's needed to stop terrorism, and promoting the weird concept of 'survival of the kindest'. I have never heard a bigger bull of shit in my life - and to think these people are allowed not only to vote, but to reproduce.
Quote: from KillerFlix on 11:48 am on July 8, 2005 When any muslim cleric will be half as upset about the delibarate slaughter of the innocent in the name of Allah, as they're upset about an "infidel's" mistreatment of the Koran I'll consider Islam other then a death-worshiping, bloodthirsty, murderous cult.
I'm with you on that - particularly since we appear to be, oddly, missing any and all condemnations of this bloodbath in the name of Islam, by any significant Muslim cleric... Odd, why is that, I wonder, from the religion of peace and harmony.
Quote: from Triyclops on 12:47 pm on July 8, 2005 But who started it? How far back in history do we have to look
I don't care how far we have to look - how much further ahead are we going to allow this to proceed?
Quote: from Abrak on 1:13 pm on July 8, 2005 My belief is that people who believe in God are wrong and pretty stupid - a bit like I think that people who believe in toothfairies are wrong and pretty stupid. Your argument certainly hasnt done much to dispel that idea.
In a scary turn of events, I find myself in complete agreement with Abrak - there was a purpose and reason for the creation and invention of a Gow, back in the dark ages -- to explain the world, to provide moral guidance, to provide a motivating fear to control people and to keep them from killing each other (except when needed). These times have long passed us by -- nothing against personal faith that includes a God, it's the crazies that fervently and militantly believe in a God, and interpret everything literally that easily fall under 'wrong and pretty stupid'. The rest are just wrong, and a little bit stupid.
Quote: from Triyclops on 1:27 pm on July 8, 2005 As far as dogs being equal in vaule to humans, that is so wierd it's unreal.
You're right - I'd save a dog before I'd save a human.
Quote: from Abrak on 1:37 pm on July 8, 2005 What you are perhaps saying is that stupid people need a God to teach them what is right and what is wrong. This maybe so. But if you teach stupid people that what they do in this life will directly affect what happens in their next life, dont be surprised if 1. they dont value this life very highly and 2. they take a plane and plough it into the World Trade Centre in the mistaken belief that they will be rewarded in the next life by 72 virgins.
Ditto as previously -- anyone who by virtue of their religion is 'forgiven' can not be trusted, if they can easily be forgiven for the most grievous actions by simply asking their lord for forgiveness ("5 Hail Marys, and you're good to go!") ; Anyone who believes they are merely biding their time ijn this life, and will be rewarded in the next one should be expeditiously transported to said next life; Anyone who feels they are doing God's bidding should quickly have a meeting with God arranged for them, to dispel any doubt in their mission. This ought to fix a lot of problems.
Quote: from KillerFlix on 1:41 pm on July 8, 2005 your common sense not necessarily be mine. throwing widows on the bonfire and cannibalism or f***ing children was (is) part of "common sense". Why should I or anyone for that matter subscribe to your set of "common senses".
Dude, you're beyond help.

Of course its fun. Christmas is the best time to party. I think it is a little sad that you feel you need an excuse - God - to have fun.

FYI I do not consider myself an "Athiest" just a realist. If that is deemed to be a religion in your eyes, then I guess I got's religion... What religion are you KF? I can have fun ALL the year round not just when someone tells me that I should. I am not fortunate enough to have children at this time. But if I did have kids in the future then I would simply give them the proven facts. It would be up to them if they chose to believe in ghosts, goblins and unproven stories about some Middle Eastern unemployed Chippy being nailed to a cross to save my soul. And then (very conveniently) doing a runner... TC

Quote: from Abrak on 8:40 am on July 8, 2005 It is somewhat ironic that a terrorist act in London which has apparently killed less than 100 people has totally overshadowed the G8 summit which was ostensibly aimed at tackling African poverty that is supposedly meaning that 30,000 africans are starving to death daily.
A terroist attack in London is Ironic. Hmmm I think thats possibly the most ridiculous post thing I've ever seen on here.
Quote: from Abrak on 1:37 pm on July 8, 2005 Lets start with the basics. The 2 starting points of evolution are selfishness (doing what is in my own best interests) and survival of the species (reproduction). As to valuing my life above a dog, I have already pointed out evolution's role in promoting the survival of the species above all else.
Abraky, I didn’t realize your were brilliant enough to rewrite current thinking and belief in the theory of evolution, quite amazing.
Quote: from Abrak on 2:05 pm on July 8, 2005 Couldnt agree more. As a selfish individual I have no interest in helping the starving Africans, nor am I really bothered about the dead in London or terrorists for that matter (it really doesnt enter my worldview in Bangkok and I am too busy shagging and partying).
Well yes it certainly could be described as being selfish possibly even rather stupid, surely you understand especially with your economics degree that terrorism and certainly the attacks of yesterday will continue to carry large ramifications for the world both economically and socially. You may feel that it doesn’t matter to you in Bangkok but unfortunately Thailand Politically and its mercantilist economy is inextricably linked to the west, and your industry construction, is one of the most sensitive to any changes here. Socially of course Thailand has its own problems with Muslim fundamentalism, I think it would be extremely naive to believe the spread of Muslim fundamentalism and terrorist success around the world will not have direct or at least indirect affects on the terrorist problems here. Put another way, who can say the next Muslim fundamentalist attacks will not be in Bangkok.

Quote: from Abrak on 8:40 am on July 8, 2005 If they choose instead however to do nothing but slaughter themselves ad infinitum with machettes, or whatever, and to also completely ignore any rational sexual behavior, well that's their f***ing problem also.
So I guess that put the Africans below us westerners because we just slaughter with Guns, Bombs and Missiles ehhhh. As for ignoring rational sexual behaviour I thought that that was exactly what this forum was about?

yesterday was a sad day in London, innocent people blown up, we knew it was coming but when it happens you are shocked. this will be short lived as with previous attacks, it has been a weird week in London, the live8 concert,ww2 remembrance, winning the olympics and this. if this is al queda then we need to be aware that these people are doing this in the name of islam, however they are not your everyday muslims, as with all religions there will always be the small minority that take it a bit too far. having said that, apart from bkk London is one of the best cities in the world,

Hmmmm...23,000 murdered/dead civilians in Iraq since the end of the Crusade, sorry...war. I wonder if...nah, that can't have anything to do with it. Sorry, ignore that, I'm just being silly. No one cares about them. Certainly not enough to kill a few people in London. BTW: Stock response from the 30-odd people I contacted who live and work in central London was: ''Oh shit, it's terrible...I don't know how I'm going to get home...'', and/or ''Oh well, we had it coming...it was just like the '80s.'' (And one ''Dunno mate, I'm in a field in Cornwall.'') And I think we should retaliate in spades: Nuke Paris. Some people are just bad losers.

Not quite sure what your point is here Mr C, maybe you could make it a little clearer, it's funny because you normally make your point very clear, at least you do everytime someone has a little dig at a ladyboy.

In 1996 I had the privliege of attending a lecture by a Military Historian who pointed out that the actions that dominated the last decade of a century were the indicators of the nature of the next century. For example, the rise of Heidelberg (?) and the power of the 'First Reich" of the 1890's indicated that the 20th Century would be one of world wide conflict between Nation-States. The Century started with the Spanash and Ameriocan war and ended with the end of the Cold War. Similary the 'theme' of the 19th Century was reveloution against royality; the indicatior was the sucess of the American Revolution. The point of this was that the lecturer pointed out that that since the end of the Cold War in 1992 the major 'theme' was terrorist attacks being initiated by fanatical religious/political groups both in America and abroad. That being the case I figure that we have another 80 odd years of this type of news. Enjoy it folks........
