    9/11 what really happend

    Ya know, tis real funny -- Americans are pretty split on this. lots of them say yes it was a conspiracy, and lots say no. Personally, im still convinced that theres a LOT more than what is allowed to be known, and more to the point, i do think it was deliberate -- on more than one side. The fact that the current administration is far less than forthcoming with ALL evidence items and documents concerning this episode. I am convinced that aircraft took out WTC 1+2, and that one smashed into that field -- however, i am NOT convinced it was a 767 that damaged the Pentagon. the ONE film that was released is not sufficient to prove it, and a number of other films that WOULD support an aircraft impacting the Pentagon were in fact seized and not released. (If anyone at all has video aside of the one from the security shack at the Pentagon, i would LOVE to see it myself.) Further, it has been known for a while that a number of groups had advanced knowledge and were kept clear of the areas in question. More than that, the CURRENT resistance by the US Administration (and a ever decreasing number of US citizens) to release such documents, and in fact working to lock up documents released by previous administrations is not a supporter for the case that no conspiracy -- or for that matter, no will by the current administration to work to a peacefull free society -- exists. The Patriot act, by its own self, is VERY strong clear evidence that, in fact, the current administration has much to hide, and is working to hide it, and workiong to silence those that oppose the US -- in ANY form, be it terrorism, be it political, or be it its own citizens of the US wanting to know just what the hell is going on. Ever read the thing? http://www.epic.org/privacy/terrorism/hr3162.html Read it. you may find yourself less than happy in what you find.

    Personal Ethics

    Religious dispute? nah. i already know nothing short of a direct hit froma nuke is gonna convince either him or me that we are wrong. however, i do enjoy the debate and proving my point. rEdaSbLood, you got it dead to rights on here - Thats precicely the point. virtually ALL these religions, Christianity, Muslim, etc, expect/want/ask/demand/etc for one to hands over thier soul, spirit, wtf ever you wanna call it, including ones allegiance, to them. So why should i NOT examine it? i dont pretend to be a master in metaphysics, but i know its there, it exists, so im gonna do the best i can to examine it. if that means i keep out of bweing a part of any/most/all religions, so much the better i think. That is my point. The civilised world wasnt formed from one religion, it was formed by a collective group of people of varying religions, KEEPING thier religious beleifs aside to work together. as much as the Christians/Catholics like to think, they were NOT the only ones that formed the US, Canada or other "first world" nations, but a part of it, a part of a colllective unified whole working toward a common gain on common ground. they did NOT allow thier ultimately petty religious differences from preventing this, at least nut till upwards of 300 years ago. Not all of mine are, ill be the first to admit -- but for jut that reason, im not gonna stop learning about any religion. it just means i refuse to JOIN any religion. and if your going to tell me i have top be part of it to fully understand it, i think ill be much happyer on the OUTside of it. No, its damned ACCURATE of me. I note you didnt post the REST of that comment -- especially since Christianity itself has had a paticularly bloody history. (dont beleive me? One Word ------- CRUSADES). Well lessee, where to start? shall we start with Evolotion? or mabe the existance of god him/her/itself? or heaven and hell for that matter? or the Garden of eden? Or how bout how Incest is so BADLY slammed, yet in several verses (Genisis 17:16, 20:12, Exodus6:20) god is quite supportive of such? Or, how bout weather its ok to lie? Or, how bout Human sacrifice? Or, does god love everyone? Do you want me to go on? or have i driven the point home yet (with the sledgehammer that is your own bible)? The point is, the bible cant even agree with itself, let alone any bloody thing else. to sit there, and tell the world that the book is perfect, flawless, ad infinitum, really does not do much for your credibility here, notto those of us skeptics anyway Oh yes, and that site you were so quick to slam, www.skepticsannotatedbible.com , its VERY efficient for weeding out such little discrepancies. thats the whole point of publicizing research, - to save the people that come after you the immense headache of going over it again. But please, go ahead, spell out EXACTLY where in the bible it says "this is current, this is up to date, and this is what is expected of humanity". id be very interested in seeing it. and no, Confidence (which in your case, IMHO, is teetering on the edge of arrogance) isnt a bad thing. the fact im still firing back shows ive plenty of it myself. Now, i realise, to a Christian, this sounds rather anti religious, but in all honesty, its not. its a direct, hard look at it -- and if makes you uncomfortable to read it, maybe it would be worth your while to understand why this is so.

    Perhaps BOTH sides are. either way, that is the truth about a debate - the peaceful diplomatic attempt to convince the other side your right. True, i missworded that -- i did not mean to completely rule out peaceful discussion and debate, but what i WAS driving at, is the fact that much of whats going on today is that most of these brainless peons going around blowing **** up dont have that intellect to politely discuss and decently talk. Eh?? Since WHEN has that been untrue?? the history of Christianity, Catholism, Muslim, hells you name it, virtually every "major, popular, long standing" religion has had its long past built on the blood suffering and murder of billions of people. Yaya, i keep hearing the age old excuse, "No, those peopel that committed such atrocities were acting outside the faith, and were not acting in accordance with said faith." BULLSH!T!! i actually took some time earlyer to not fully, but QUICKLY read the bible, the one your so damned defendant of. Mark Twain was damned right, its chock full of too many lies to count, more bloodshed and demanding of bloodshedding by its writers (oh, im sorry, "god") than any propoganda leaflet from history ive EVER read. i was quite thurourly disturbed when i set that damned thing down. Thats MY oppinion, MY take on it, and if a reasonably well educated 25 year old can come to that conclusion, why cant others? Well, they have. in ANY event, the point stands rather poignantly - if thats just in the Christian bible, just what all else is in other bibles? Again, i repeat -- i didnt mean to rule out decent, peaceful debate - just that very often that in modern history these differences are what bring much of bloodshed these days. Ive had this thrown at me a LOT in the past, and the response is almost instinct now. I take the time, i pause, i ANALYSE what people would have me be a part of, as my spirit, "soul" as some put it, What makes me ME, is perhaps the nearest dearest thing to me of all, and theres no way this side of Hades id give that to ANY thing without being damned certain of it. If people find sucha thought offensive, then thats a good warning bell to me -- if they dont want me analising, seems to me they may have something to hide. Ahhuh. as i said above, im analising it before i even consider sucha thing -- because as i see it, the guy got shafted by his own people, ie those he tried to "save", and got hung out to dry. that instance in history has caused much of the bloodshed that his worlds seen in the last 2000+ years -- and i personally would like to see why. Further, I do beleive many people of many religions -- Muslim, Christian, etc -- are good people, and not out to harm anyone, hell most find the idea of violence abhorrent. thats all fine and good -- then i run into zealots -- or even more than somewhat overbearing mouthpeices -- and such instances give me plenty reason for pause and examination. Finally, i may be way off -- but in YOUR view, not mine. Dont B!itch me out for it if you dont want it thrown right back in your face, with interest. ;) Finally -- Spirituality can exist, mostly, without religion -- but religion desperately requires spirituallity to survive. the idea, i might add, of giving your spirit to any outside being, god or otherwise, isnt spirituality, as i see it -- its religion. Spirituality comes from within and stays there, only let out in what you do with it.

    Personal Ethics

    Perhaps then, Bware, the idea is to Accept the idea that not everyone is going to agree with you or yours or your religion, and no amount of speaking is going to change that. Further, perhaps the idea is to Accept that no one is going to change just to suit an old religion -- and will defend thier right to beleive as such. That, I think, is the key element to accept. That being said, it is alaready blatantly clear that most religions wont accept this. my question, for you and everyone else here - Can YOU accept that others will be different, and leave it at that, or are you going to be like those peons that kill for THE most stupid reason ever in existance -- aka religion?
  18. I was thinkin back to earlyer WW2, where they launched B25 Mitchells off the USS Hornet for the Doolittle Raid. Suppose, for whatever reason, one wanted to launch an A-10 Warthog off the current nuke carriers out there, any thoughts as to feasability? just radnom though i was curious about.

    Hypothetical situation

    Heres a question then -- Pound for pound, what plane delivers the most carnage to a ground target, for a close ground support role? my bet would be the A10. (if you want the most carnage, i would imagine the B52 has EVERYthing beat - as far as aircraft go )

    Some Thoughts I'd Like to Share...

    something id like to toss out --- Games that sell are games that kids WANT to play, they are doing something in the game that is fun to them for wahtever reason. why dont religious games sell well, for example? Most kids couldnt be bothered with religious spouting. why do cop killing games sell? cause a lot of kids seem to think thats cool. me, i find such games utter horse****, but then, i had a half ass decent upbringing, i was taught from an early age who to -- and not to -- respect. I may not of agreed with EVERY thing my parents said but i had to respect it , till i was old enough to get it on my own. What im trying to say is, its more a flaw of society than anything else, that we not only have such games, but that kids find such **** cool, i would think. The parents arent taking responsibility for thier kids, teaching them and so forth. tthey expect the schools and so on to do thier job for them, which is uttere crap. society aint helpin either the parents or the kids much either. I dunno, maybe its different down in the cities, but from my standpiont, ive ALWAYS been treated with the utmost respect by the RCMP, and ive always returned it.

    family guy vs the simpsons

    Me i say Family Guy. it acutally used SOME intellect and common sence, where as simpsons is a classic case of neve using any at all. (which would explain its popularity ) and South Park? started out pretty funny but after a while it just lost its appeal, ie got too damned stupid as well. But then, this is fro mthe guy that watches Hogans Heroes, MASH and virtually any Star Trek save for that blasphemy Enterprise. so you be the judge
