Paul – you reminded me of some old coin/money names…..
Farthing
Half Crown
A Florin
A Tanner
Guinea
Dont forget the threepenny bit with the many sides
The Bob
and the halfpenny,
Moving on the old white five pound note that was printed on one side and threw shopkeepers into confusion if you tried to change one.(gone by the time I was old enough to have money but I watched my Father trying to change one in Sainsbury’s when it was a small Grocers.) He had to sign the back!
Actually she hated my guts!
According to my late Mother in Law if you pee on your feet it will cure athletes foot.
Any members with that complaint willing to give it a go?
– Allegedly LOL
Hello Lads put down your pints and have a look at what I can do now, forget raising the dead armadillos I can rejoin my body.
Peter use you sword and cut Thomas’s head of and I can join it up again, he will be alright if he does not nod it!
RpR what church do you belong to. I am a lapsed Catholic or maybe an excommunicated one after giving a thieving priest a good kicking!
RpR Hell would be eternity with people like you,at least with the JW’s you can boot them of you property.
A question or several for the Christians, Forgive me if I bring it down to basics.
1 There is one god but there are three of him, God the Father,Son and The Holy Ghost(hereafter called old Spooky) am I right?
2 When The Father finished making the world he realised he had cocked up and people were not behaving as they should(despite floods and turning people into pillars of salt etc) correct?
3 So he sends down old spooky which is also him to donk the Virgin Mary and put her in the club and Joseph falls for this. Correct so far?
4 Mary gives birth to Jesus who is also the other two gods which are one to sort this out and save the world. Have I got this right.
5 After a steady job as a chippy with his step dad he gets into religion and politics and the Romans top him. Still with me?
6 Three days later he rises from the dead(unless the crucifixion was botched) in front of his gang and then ascended into heaven. How did he do that then?
I am glad I am a non believer at least it makes my life simple. When I am gone I am gone and will know no more. I also will not have to put up with the deluded bible punchers either!
I would have been worried for his soul but as Jesus cried while being led to his execution over what was going to happen to the Jews for rejecting him, I am not.
It is still sad but but human nature is human nature.
So 6,000,000 Jews wiped out serves them right then?
Sorry your friend Jesus, don’t forget he was a Jew!*
*Assuming your imaginary friend existed.
#138 All I said when someone had a relative gravely ill was in the context of religion was I could not pray for them as I was a non believer but I had them in my thoughts and mind and hoped they made a speedy recovery and I hoped also they found some comfort in their prayers.
What do you want to talk about then.Vietnam, agent orange Lt Calley the way you treated your veterans or Hanoi Jane?
As a person living in America you choose any subject and lets see what we all say about it. This one has IMO run its course.
As for your remark about America and my experience with America, As an outsider during my time I have been able to observe much on both sides of the Mason Dixon line.I fear we have imported to much rubbish from the good ole USA from trick or treat,drug culture and large portions of fast junk food. I will give you some of your music is great though from Blues to Rock and Roll.
He was also a rabid anti semite…
In his 1543 work On Jews and Their Lies, Luther ranted that the Jews were not the chosen people but were the devil’s people, and referring to them with violent, obscene language. He advocated burning their synagogues, destroying Jewish prayerbooks, outlawing rabbis from preaching, seizing Jews’ property and money, and smashing up their homes, so that they would be forced into labour or expelled for eternity. Sound familiar?
Well what do you know snafu Religion or lack of it has got us agreeing for once!!!!!!!!!
Just to add to your quote I wonder if old Mart had been born a few hundred years later he would have been Chancellor of Germany in 1933 he sure had the credentials for it.
RpR here is a good quote for your bumper sticker from George Lincoln Rockwell
“I like Jews. I’ll be very sorry when we’ve killed the last of them.”
I was a well respected member of an American copier forum which in the general section(much as this) got around to Religion and I said I was a non believer. The Death threats and vitriol I received from my so called friends was something else again. One member from Tennessee PM’d me and said he was still my friend but if he said to his employer or prospective employer that he did not believe he would not get the job or promotion. Fortunately here in the UK we do not care about such things which shows me that we have a certain maturity that the USA will lean in the next few generations, hopefully
No have I had a ‘Freudian slip’,” and missed something?
Just to satisfy you — He be a low down stinky pooh-pooh ishy person!!
Snafu I believe he is bringing your personal hygiene into question and also calling you some one of restricted growth:D
Thats a good idea. I wonder if it will catch on?
Yes charlie but that is all politicians and I feel that it is time they all realised that their actions on so called care in the community and constant cuts will come back and bite them in the a rse. How many times have you seem some one on television looking repentant saying “lessons have been learned” when somebody has been killed or killed themselves.
The plain truth is it is cheaper to let things like that happen than find the resources to stop it.
