Nobody, including me, is honest to a fault. If you were The Dalai Lama or, well, I was going to say The Pope, but I think he's full of crap too...anyway, anyone who says they are honest to a fault is utterly dishonest with themselves. That's your opinion, but that doesn't make it true. No, it's true. You are not honest to a fault and if you were the least bit honest with yourself, you'd know that.

Doug, Vox, et al, Could y'all go masturbate somewhere else? Maybe take it to email or something. This group is supposed to be about gardening. Regards, Bob It's also an election year and people who've been posting here for many years are allowed to have a discussion which is off topic. Clearly you can see the subject, can you not? Oh, okay, they stay out of it. Oh, Regards, Victoria Need a good, cheap, knowledge expanding present for yourself or a friend? http://www.animaux.net/stern/present.html |

Should a person be allowed to kill a child when it's a week old, maybe an hour old, where do you draw the line? *I* draw the line at the end of my nose. Why do you think YOUR line includes other peoples' wombs? |

On Fri, 20 Aug 2004 22:04:05 -0400, Sheila wrote: (snip) I also believe in science do not deny, misrepresent or attempt to stop the teaching of science. As a matter of fact I think teaching science is a good thing. I just don't happen to believe in evolution. Oh boy, another True Believer! Do you really have the courage of your convictions, though? If you REALLY don't believe in evolution, you should make sure and tell your doctor(if you go to doctors, that is) in the event you ever get an infection, that you want him to prescribe nothing but sulfa drugs for you. Sulfa drugs worked just fine for infections when they were developed. They should work just fine now, unless the germs have evolved. Go ahead. Make their day. I don't get antibiotics often, but even so, my doctor has an interesting system. If, for instance, I have a sinus infection and he feels any of 3 drugs will work, he always refers to my records, alternates drugs, and prescribes the one I had in the MOST distant past. His reasoning is precisely what you stated. But, Sheila will tell us that the concept of drug-resistant germs is nothing but junk science. Boy, you guys just don't get it! Of course germs become resistant to drugs, that is a far cry from the whole theory of evolution. Wrong. That is the whole POINT of the whole theory of evolution. It's the reason we don't bother with sulfa drugs any more. Next time you go to the drug store try to find some sulfa drugs, so when you get an infection you won't have to bother going to a doctor. Even better, just forget about all that junk science and find a good old fashioned doctor who might be willing to do some trepanning for you and let those evil demons out of your skull. Like I said before, you guys hold on to your beliefs and I'll hold on to mine. |

Jesus promoted Christian values, pity he hated the family so much! Matthew 10: 34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. 35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. 36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. 37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me.

"Janet Baraclough.." wrote in message ... The message from "Doug Kanter" contains these words: We have a show I find absurd, although nothing as savage as BB. It's called "Trading Spaces". On each episode, two couples (aka "morons") swap houses or apartments and surprise each other with their lack of remodeling & decorating skills. The results have included such monstrosities as walls covered with headache-inducing purple chenille. Oh, we have that. Old hat. We also have "holiday swap"..that's where two unknown and utterly incompatible families have each other's holiday and a thoroughly miserable time doing things they hate. Briefly, we had one whose name I forget, where two bosses swapped companies in incompatible fields, and did economic damage while alienating entire workforces. Currently we're in about the third series of "Wife swap". Unknown and incompatible ma, pa and kids families swap ma's/wives for a fortnight, bicker and whine incessantly, then meet up at the end so that the wives can hurl verbal abuse at each other and both husbands. These are the type of people who decorate their front lawns with tacky stuffed sheep. Round here, people who want sheep to decorate the front lawn just leave the gate open. Janet. Do the sheep keep the lawn edges trimmed? |

Oh please...your news reader, Thunderbird, gives you the option of seeing
just the first message of each thread. That makes it easy to not look at what you don't want to see. "zxcvbob" wrote in message ... Doug, Vox, et al, Could y'all go masturbate somewhere else? Maybe take it to email or something. This group is supposed to be about gardening. Regards, Bob |

... This Bush thread has been going on for days and has accounted for about half the messages in this group lately. Doncha think that's enough? In each the the above examples, I posted one or two messages in an existing off-topic discussion thread. I'm not saying that's a *good* thing, but I hardly see how it compares to you and Doug saying pretty much the same rants over and over and over and over and monopolizing the group. Monopolizing??? There still seem to be a healthy number of other subjects listed here. Our conversation has no effect on those other subjects - not that YOU are aware of. |

There still seem to be a healthy number of other subjects listed here. Our conversation has no effect on those other subjects - not that YOU are aware of. As you can see, it is a personal issue. Notice who was targeted out of all the people contributing to the thread. I went back and looked at what I wrote. Most messages had no mention of religion, and those that did were specifically targeting the religious-right which I see primarily as a political movement. I can recall instances where Victoria has been the target of anti-religious slurs but I didn't see Bob getting all hot - but then she isn't a Christian. Bob had no problem with Sheila telling us that teen pregnancy was lower "year ago" and that sex education leads to increased sexual activity but completely ignoring any request to support the assertions. Obviously we were suppose to just accept these things as fact instead of asking for some proof. Paghat mentioned the association of the KKK and Christianity but it was me who was accused of being "anti-religious." Bob says that we posted the same thing over and over and Sheila says we keep changing the subject. I'm accused of being dismissive, but when Sheila tell us that she knows better just because of her unique perspective, then that isn't dismissive. Go figure. |

In article ,
Doug Kanter wrote: It was clearly pointed out for your benefit that the religious right is NOT REPRESENTATIVE of the majority of REAL Christians. Therefore, YOU have made a one dimensional stereotype. I am clearly pointing out the one-dimensional stereotypes of the so-called religious right are bigoted. You are simply incapable of comprehending that your bigotry is real. billo |
