Maybe he can help the new generation stick it to the tories after all. Thatcher would *hate* that.

I think we could be on the verge of some serious stuff going down in britain unless politicians get their heads out of their arses, properly out. Police and prison strikes? Bad idea to give the police a reason to side with the public. What are they gonna do when they've got no provocateurs or kettling, call in the army? Meanwhile london will be burning - the kids know what happens when police don't interfere; FUN!

David cameron is seeing all this in his wet dreams. He's imagining himself as a general sat atop a riot police horse, watching the laborers flee across the fields before him, trampled under-hoof as the police lines charge once again in the name of those who were born to privilege.

You've got no understanding of how an average Briton lives camerface, fuck off and take your posh twat friends with you. 77% of the deficit through cuts (hitting the poor) and 23% through tax (mostly from VAT; again hitting the poor). How can he live with himself?

Upvote granted. That is probably the best way to reply to that sort of argument too.

The real underlying problem with the "gas prices are going up because the Fed is printing money" theory is that gasoline is just one price, and "inflation" is a rise in the price of everything, overall. Economists say that to really spot inflation, you have to look at prices that are generally pretty stable; volatile commodities like food & gas which see frequent large shifts in both supply & demand are very poor measures of inflation, because there's just too much non-inflationary noise. Here's a much more in-depth explanation from Krugman: http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/26/core-logic/

Keep in mind that the methods economists use to measure inflation show that we've been in a period of record-low inflation. That should, for any rational person, be the end of talk of inflation. This constant cry of "INFLATION!" at every price increase is quite literally the economic equivalent of hearing hoof-beats and assuming it's zebras and not horses.

Most changes in prices happen in response to real shifts in supply or demand, not because the Fed is expanding the monetary base.

1. Do red horned cloven-hoofed demons live far underground?
2. Do flying magical people live in the sky? Fairies?
3. Is magic real?
4. Do snakes and burning bushes actually talk? Have they ever?
5. Does being 'blessed' grant me +1 to armor class and saving throws?
6. Do sparks shoot from your fingers when you cast your magic blessing spells at people?

Re: #3 if magic was real would it still be called magic? ;^)


My number 1 question for God: How can you prove yourself to be God? If some being has crazy powers maybe it is just a being with crazy abilities, how can anything ever prove itself to be the ONE that is everything? Strange that so many believe very specific things without any evidence whatsoever. Answers don't come easily and we frankly don't need answers to everything.

I'd like to say that I'd walk, but if I'm going to visit my brother in Boston, 2000 miles (3200 km for you non-American commies) is a long way to hoof it. Shit, that's a long goddamn way to even drive. Thankfully my brother is an asshole.

should have tried to blend a live horse instead, with four blenders, with one hoof in each


Shouldn't that be a cow instead... Considering your username and all...

Its really all about the winged humanoids living in the sky and red skinned cloven hoofed bad guys living under the ground.

I'm not the one making the claim a magical invisible sky god with a zombie for a son is real without a shred of evidence supporting said claim. I'm not the one claiming that a global flood caused by a vengeful universal overseer destroyed everything on the planet, but was saved by a 700 year old man. Somehow said old man managed to gather and save millions of species (in pairs mind you) to prevent them from going extinct. I'm not the one making the claim that the Earth is 6000 years old, and that all mankind descended from two humans... one of which was created from a rib-bone. Never mind the fact that their children would have had to participate in incest for at least a number of generations before there were enough individuals where one could 'convince' one's self that they were no longer participating in incestuous relations. I am not the one claiming that winged humanoids live in the sky, and that red horned cloven hoofed demonoids live below the ground. I am not the one claiming that if you don't bow down and be subservient to said jealous sky-god, that you will end up frying in a so-called 'lake of fire' in the underworld and suffer eternally.. somehow... long after your corporeal remains have long become worm shit.

I am not the one claiming any such nonsense. I am simply indicating that it is what it is. Nonsense. Mother goose stories have more consistency to them that the bunk spewed by the bible and the child molesting men that preach it.

It is not my duty to prove anything. It is yours.. as a so-called believer to prove it to us. To explain the inconsistencies and the hypocrisy in the bible. If the bible is 'God's true word', then it should be taken literally in it's entirety. By simply calling things metaphor, or discarding entire sections of the said 'holy book' out of convenience, or because you don't like it... doesn't help prove a religious persons point. Take it as it is. Literally. Then start enslaving people from neighboring states, and protest against the state to bring back stoning as a valid punishment for heretical behavior... like me.

Blasphemy: Is a victimless crime.

>> ^r10k:

Before trying to figure that side of things out, work on your basic theology some more (ie: learn about the bible properly). When you have it so completely out of whack, it makes your thoughts on that topic sound utterly confusing.
Ah wait, I just read the bit where you don't believe in any of it anyway. In that case, welcome to the "I have no idea about anything but I'll just dribble on with a bunch of pointless thoughts anyway" club.
>> ^honkeytonk73:
So.. if Jesus was the product of God impregnating a virgin to give birth to himself so that he could kill himself to make a point having something to do with sin.. that really didn't need to be done in the first place. When one hangs an image of tortured Jesus in a Church. Then one would certainly be depicting a graven image. Commandment #2 is now being broken in most every Christian church across the globe and around the necks of many Christians as well.

i, for one, welcome our new hoofed (hooved?) overlords.

It's all fun and games until a hoof shatters Buddy's muzzle.

the possibility of hoof damage made me nervous, but that was pretty damn cool.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I bet the horse is plotting a misplaced hoof to the spine.

Thanks to the miracle of google, you've very likely saved the life of an antelope in the distant future who found this helpful tip on his hoof mounted PDA in his moment of need.

Well done, Kymbos. Well done.

Jesus talks to me in my head. I am blessed and others think so too. But when I started to talk to myself too much, I was thrown in an institution for being schizophrenic.

Now I am a blessed schizo who talks to Jesus... and he talks to me.

Red skinned cloven-hoofed horned evil demons are real. I see them too.

Compare my beliefs with the average Christian's. Are they all that different? Nope. Not at all.
