Australia? England? Totally fucking Syria.

They were disarmed by one leader's order and not a democratic process? If so, I stand corrected. I'm all for banning guns, but such changes should be long drawn out affairs like the founders intended smile

Speak for yourself. I'm an Atheist, but I'd drag out the guns to defend the local churches.

I meant the religion bit. I've got nothing against architecture.

Re: General Talk/Stuff That won't Go Anywhere Else

Like clockwork: 4 days in and I'm at the point where I call bullshit on the Olympic judges' scores for sports I'm almost totally ignorant of. "What the hell do you mean 15.345 for that vault jump? That was a 15.678 if I ever saw it."

If it has judges to determine a winner, it's a popularity contest, not a sport.

This.


Although now I really want to see a game of like hockey or football scored by judges. You could have points given for originality of victory dances, taunts, flare. It would be awesome.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK ME

I didn't think it was possible to want something so much that it's physically painful. But dammit it all.


EDIT: Correction. This was the first time I have been in physical pain from wanting something, and it still hurts more than the lego version. Nothing against the lego...but...it's Lego. tongue

Re: General Talk/Stuff That won't Go Anywhere Else

I just had a very interesting 90 minute chat with the 20 year old girl across the road. An hour of that was devoted (hah) to talking about god. Now, this girl is a very nice and sweet but slightly messed up young woman. Not messed up because of her belief of god (she's a Christian) but because of other shit that has happened in her life. Although, you certainly could argue that her belief doesn't help. despite her claims to the contrary.

But....yeah.....it was a very interesting conversation. A Christian and an Atheist talking about god and the bible. Ok, it was two friends of opposing views talking about god and the bible but still. They really have an answer for everything, don't they.....?

Re: General Talk/Stuff That won't Go Anywhere Else

I love those conversations.

I used to do that on Skype with a JW friend of mine, and after several non-proselytizing conversations where I just asked her questions, apparently I had planted the seeds of doubt in an already curious brain, and a few months later she's like "thanks for all those conversations, I just bailed on the church."

I was like "oh. shit, sorry." She was like "nah s'cool man."

This has been my story.

Re: General Talk/Stuff That won't Go Anywhere Else

I was trying to do that tonight but she was having none of it big_smile

It can be scary hearing her talk, she was off on a 'Christian retreat' last week, which is actually a bit worrying. She believes god plants messages and images in her brain and her flat was haunted by demons when she first moved in but god got rid of them.

I understand that some people need to believe something to help them along in life, but bloody hell. Oh, and apparently, Christians don't like Jehovah Witnesses because they don't think going door to door is the way to go.....

It's more the bit where the JW scriptures are a bastardized spin-off of the "proper" Bible. But they're not as reviled as the Mormons, whose book is the Fifty Shades of Gray to the Bible's Twilight.
