  1. Back on topic for a moment :blink: 14) Turn up dressed as Batman or a Fox
  2. If you tax big companies loads then surely they'll just get fed up and move elsewhere, which wont do your economy the world of good, not to mention the unemployment figures. I dont think a doctors salary is too shabby at the moment either? Teachers and Firemen probly do deserve more. Think you might end up being a bit lonely :blink:
  3. Lol , I wasnt trying to concede defeat, its just that this discussion seems to going round in circles, and it seems to be only me and you that are taking part at the moment. It seems a bit strange that god gets all the credit for rewarding you for sending you to heaven but has nothing to do with you going to hell. If hell is a punishment brought on by yourself, then isnt heaven a reward brougt on by yourself too? As it is your actions that decide where you will end up. Or maybe they're both gods responcibilty as it is him that sets out the criteria for going to heaven or hell? Hahaha, how did I manage to get that Quote in here? Might as well leave it in now for comedy value.
  4. Nice one, good to see he got what he deserved. :blink:
  5. I think you'd soon find running a country is harder then you think, you cant please all the people all the time. You've got to do something unpopular at some point. I wont be voting Blair either. Like you I cant vote for someone who has blatantly lied to everyone on many occasions.Honesty is a vital quality and unfortunatly its lacking from most polititions. However, the lack of decent opposition means that we will probably get another term of Blair. PR should be nothing to do with politics.
  6. Weapons could be anything from a pointy stick to a missile, it dosnt encourage guns specifically. (now I am getting too picky (Y) ) Erm, surely hell is a punishment? Heehe this made me chuckle, so you can be a murderer or a traffic warden and you are forgiven, but you say something nasty about the holy-spirit and you're damned forever, niiiiice. EDIT: Surely this thread is due a change-of-subject soon? I dont think we're going to argue each other round on the whole religion topic :sick: I feel like theres only the three of us that want to actually carry this on.
  7. If you do that (in those exact words of course) i'll give you a gold plated banana :- Obviously the latest Blair PR stunt is audiences with young people (anyone see him on T4 the other day :P ). Maybe its supposed to make him look cool and 'down with the kidz innit'. Ask him something awkward and refuse to stop asking it until he gives a straight answer Paxman vs Howard style, thats always entertaining.
  8. Maybe im getting needlessly picky, but doesnt this come down to how you percieve the word Jihad. Someone made the point earlier in this thread that it didnt mean killing people.....I think i'll have a look and edit it in. Woohoo.
  9. Having never read (properly) the bible or the qur'an i'm starting to feel a little out of my depth, but... as christians have to follow gods word to get close to him in heaven arn't they slaves to him? ie: you must do as I say or you wont have a good place in heaven / get in.
  10. It isn't, if it was my money i'd go for the T-Rex everytime, what I was saying is that its an improvement on the mk1 (although I didnt do it very clearly), well a pretty small one, but improvement none the less.
  11. Italy is a more Modern country then some of those in the middle east though. Countries develop and grow out of things like beating people because of what they believe. Its not a purely religious thing. And I dont think you could claim Christians have never persecuted anyone. What about all the Protestant vs Catholic violence in Ireland, wernt they christians, they didn't seem too friendly.
  12. Just in case anyone else is silly like me and goes trawling through the news section looking for something that says the new coustellier frames will be made by Koxx, what he means is that the new Gilles Coustellier signiture frame wil be made by Koxx because he's now riding for them. It took me ages to work that out :"> I assume Coustellier frames are still made by Coustellier. This new one seems good to me, they know the geometry is good so they've just improved one of the frames weak points (the waffer thin downtube) and dropped the price :P
  13. I still dont see any difference between: "if you're not a Muslim you will be killed when Suleman arrives" and "If you dont beleive and worship god you will go to hell" "satan can only get you if you let him." Surely the way you stop him getting you is to believe in god and follow christianity. So this is exactly the same as sayig Suleman will get you if you dont follow Islam? No, thats not what I meant. What I mean is that the Muslim religion is a peacefull one but the terrorists are abusing it and using it as an excuse to carry out acts of terrorism in the name of their god.
  14. Yeah, by a minority of Muslim extremists. The vast majority of Muslims are peacefull people not terorists. As for dont you think thats a bit rich when you're posting stuff like "Let me tell you one last fact about the Jew. The Jew killed Jesus" Facts = proven with evidence. There is no such religion though. Christianity say's you have to believe in God to go to heaven doesn't it? How is that any different?
  15. You could try calling NHS Direct on 0845 46 47, they have trained nurses on the line I think, so you'd probably get more useful info there then from here (Y) If it gets really bad then call out your out-of-hours doctor.
  16. You've got to offer a deterrant to people though. I dont think the death penalty or corporal punishment are things we should bring back, but harsher prison sentances and more basic conditons for prisoners would be a step in the right direction. If you're thinking of committing a crime part of that decision is going to be what will happen to you if you're nicked for it, and another will be the probability of getting caught, so therefore harsher sentances and more police make sense. I'm not really sure that a century ago everyone was as god fearing as you say, but I cant think of anything to back that up with and religion was more popular in those days I suppose. Going back a bit, Mr Monkey, I dont think you could be arrested for anything you've said in this thread. There is a law about incitement to racial hatred as Josephine said, but I think thats reserved for the most extreme cases (or when the Government needs an excuse to get rid of someone eg: Abu Hamza(sp?)) Interesting how there is suposedly free speech but saying some things will get you locked up. Then again we're supposed to have trial by jury, the right to a fair trial etc etc... I'm kind of rambling off topic again, but someone on a TV programme a couple of years ago qouted something like "When you go to war you become more and more like your enemy". Before the war in Iraq the Governments here and in the US had a lot to say about Sadam and how there was no free speech and people were locked up without trial and tortured.
  17. This is a pretty good example of why religion irritates me so much. So according to some very old and probably even more inacurate books the Jews killed Jesus 2000 years ago. Why the hell does that make any difference to things now? The reason we remember what happened in the concentration camps is nothing to do with feeling guilty. Its remembering that something terrible happened and showing respect for the dead. You should always try to learn from history to prevent the same mistakes happening again, so i'm glad that there is a rememberance day. You cant prove Jesus was the messiah, you cant prove he even excisted, so therefore you are misleading people when you say it is a fact the Jews killed him. And even if they did it was 2 millenuims ago, dont you thik you should have got over it by now, imagine if we were held accountable for all the mistakes of our ancient ancestors (Y)
  18. Yeah, but its bound to be more fun to create your own mixtures. Might have to have a go, i'm assuming you just melt the chocolate add booze then bung the whole lot in the fridge? Everyone could post successful recipe's then (Y)
  19. Nothing to be sorry for, I was tempted to search, but i'm too lazy to go through with it. Well found I say (Y)
  20. erm, recipe? Alcoholic chocolate sounds like a brilliant idea, let us know how it tastes (Y)
  21. Because if you've travelled across continents to get here, risking your life, you're going to want to work f**king hard to make sure you stay here. Immigration is a good thing. I think your getting confused between Economic Immigration (Moving to find better work) , asylum seeking (moving because your afraid for your life) and Illigal Immigration (Sneaking into the country despite having no reason to leave your own country, or having been refused entry) Illegal immigration is a bad thing, because people come into the country unchecked and with no documentation so they cant get a job. No doubt a lot of these people end up with really shite jobs or invloved in crime. Its the governments responcibility (or it was until they signed it over to the EU) to control the border and the Asylum system, unfortunatly our government isnt exactly doing a brilliant job of it. Its anoying, although perhaps not totally the fault of the people concerned, that these three different types of immigration are all lumped together, often described as immigration, and the whole lot gets bad-mouthed by people who either dont know what they're talking about or people who are rascist. There is a bloody difference! Its not complicated to work out.
  22. Killing people is NOT a good idea. Its bad that your school is such a state. Thats what happens when people are allowed to get away with things over and over. This thread should really be about dealing with those people rather then ignoring the problem in a way that DOES NOT INVOLVE ANYONE DYING! Murder is not the answer.
  23. I realise that im not exactly in the roughest of area's but im struggling to think of a major problem directly caused by chav's. We have problems here with unemployment and vandalism. But they're not caused by chav's, more over 'chavs' are the result of these problems. ie: if someones got no job and there's nothing to do they're going to get bored and amuse them selves in other ways. If you dont provide the opportunity for people to interest themselves they're going to find something else to do. I know i've been in that situation before. We're lucky enough to have a sport that will keep us out of trouble the majority of the time. Im not trying to say that any major crime is the result of boredom. I'm trying to make the point that most chavs are responcible for fairly minor crimes. Maybe what I class as a chav is different to what you do? There is a bit of a violent crime problem where I work too, but this is caused by a tiny minority of fools. Everyone else gets tarred with their bad reputation because they look/act the same. Most are fairly harmless though and trying to look 'ard.
  24. And who are you going to trust with this power. I certainly wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of such a person! You could have a jury, but what if they get bribed etc... plus as George mentioned the phychological effects of sentancing people to death arn't going to be all that great. Or polititions, I dont think I even need to explain why thats a bad idea, imagine if Tony Blair and his awesome grasp of intelligence information had the right to decide on your right to live (Y) In Germany the Nazi's had this power you descibed and it didnt turn out all too well did it. Power can and will be abused, and when its the power to decide on life or death its going to get pretty bad for quite a few people. You're just breeding intollerance, once all the criminals are gone what next? Fat people are costing the health service, as are smokers. So exterminate them all? I keep tripping over short people should we just dispose of anyone under 5ft? What your talking about would at best be chaos.
  25. Hmmm , whoever could have given us the impression that you were referring to chav's (Y)" Not to mention your posts in the chav's sticky thread. I think its fairly obvious how you feel about them.
