How can you hold your head up in public. It is people like you that give the British their reputation on the continent of liking it up the arse. How does it feel when you make this country into an international laughing stock when you go abroad by your love of anal sex? I've heard anal sex is quite popular amongst European females, hence the term Euro-trash? I see nothing wrong with a lady that wants it up the ass. ****ing a woman's butthole feels good. If you don't agree, perhaps you're a whiny little faggot with a tiny pecker? |

Science certainly could be used that way -- science fiction is full of science-horror stories where the scientific elite use science as a tool of oppression. The difference is that scientists won't be able to tell you "we have a right to drug you, abuse you and put you to work in the fields because our Science says so", so any scientist suggesting such a thing gets pretty short shrift from the general public. So yes, while science is theoretically capable of being used evilly you need to have a pretty good grasp on power to start with. What's the quote? "Evil people will always do evil things to good people, and good people will occasionally do evil things to evil people, but for good people to do evil things to good people takes religion"? On the other hand, if I came and said that (for example) I want only to eat meat which has been killed by performing acts of intolerable and unnecessary cruelty on the animal which (in all other situations) would be banned outright and have me brought up in front of a judge, I can say "my God wants me to" and no-one dares argue. |

On the subject of anal sex....I really don't see why anyone would actually want to do it. I have on occasion - and on request - taken a few girls in this manner but It's certainly not something I prefer....and after the last time when I inspected my todger afterwards, and discovered a huge blob of excrement on the end of my bell, it's not something I'll be doing in the future very often. Perhaps she needed an enema? Many homosexuals I believe have to insert tampons inside their anus after rigorous hammerings because their ass muscles no longer work correctly and it's the only way to stop them ****ting themselves. Perhaps they need an enema? |

Now, I don't: I've learned enough about how the bible came about and the amount of vested interests that went into the religion to make me question and, with religion, once you question, you generally realise that the things you've been told are, bluntly, bull****. I actually now feel much more psychologically stable. I'm no longer worried that I don't know what to expect when I die, I don't have to worry about the bizarre moral and philosophical questions that arise when you try to believe in such complete rubbish. When I was 13 I had a nightmare about nuclear armageddon: I remember being utterly terrified. I had a similar one recently (I'd been watching this season of 24) and I remember feeling quite serene about my impending death. So as far as I'm concerned religion didn't even help cope with the idea of death. That's really unfortunate. I used to be an agnostic, myself. And I was terribly miserable, and the fact that life had no meaning really bothered me and, given that there was no meaning, I didn't see any point to anything. And then I started believing in God, and everything got better. Eh? How can you possibly profess to a belief without being sure that you're right? Especially one which relies entirely on faith, rather than logical deduction and proof? My belief in the absence of a God is reached through careful consideration of evidence. If evidence suddenly arrived that showed God really does exist then I would be delighted to change my belief. Perhaps you would, but my impression of most vocal atheists is that, presented with proof of God's existance, they would sooner spend the rest of their lives trying to invalidate the proof and find a flaw in it than accept it. In fact, most of the time, if I asked an atheist what he'd do if presented with proof of god, their answer is simply "Well, there's no god, so that can't happen. Any proof with which I am presented would be false." However believers have been repeatedly presented with proof that God is a figment of the imagination; a mish-mash of legends, myths and bogeymen made up to scare children and the proletariat into accepting a way of life that would otherwise have seemed utterly unfair, yet they still fail to change their minds. Except that no one has ever presented proof that God does not exist. People have presented proof that the reasons we believe in god are suspect, people have presented proof that religions are not correct, people have presented proof that purported evidence of God is invalid. But no one has ever proven the non-existance of God. Proving a religion wrong doesn't prove there's no God. Even if you prove that there is no good reason to believe in God, you haven't proven that there is good reason *not* to believe. I suspect, and this many not be true of you personally, that were you presented with proof of God's existance, you'd say "But I know for a fact that there's no god, so this proof must be wrong." A person of real faith has had the sort of spiritual experience that makes awareness of God such a real and firsthand observation that the same applies to them. To me, the fact that God exists is so patently obvious that your "proofs" could well disprove various religious tenants, could very well demonstrate that the levitican laws are bunk, could very welldemonstrate that there are evil motives bvehind those who form religions, but it can no more prove that there's no God than you can prove that water isn't wet. And religious people have crises of faith all the time. When bad things happen to good people, a lot of them question their faith, and some lose it. You should know: you said it happened to you. Sometimes people of faith lose their faith. Sometimes atheists find a faith. So it's not hte case that "If an atheist saw proof, he'd start believing; if a religious person saw disproof, he wouldn't stop believing." It rather bothers me that such a large percentage of atheists manifest the specific trait I like least about many of my fellow persons of faith. You mean, we only believe rational and logical arguments? Or that we don't accept anything that smacks of fairy stories and inexplicable magic? More or less, the smugness. That sense that "people of faith are wrong and stupid and I am smart and right." Becauseif you s/fath/no faith/, you get exactly the same thing a religious nutjob believes. And if you ask both of them what the difference is between the two of you, the best answer you're liable ot get is "I really *am* right, and he really *is* wrong." |

Who not surprisingly was no stranger to avarice. . Now now, I think you'[ll find he wasn't so much homophobic as sex-of-all-kinds-ophobic. In addition to opposing homosexuality, he also made a big (much bigger, in fact) point that we really should all be celibate, and that sex within marriage to a person of the opposite gender was just the least-objectionable way to help you keep your mind on God if you didn't have the moral fiber to ignore constant blue-balls. Indeed. Basically just a kill-joy. In fact, you tend to find that any time anyone n the ancient sources objects to homosexuality, it's mostly connected to objecting to all sex in general with the caveat that "But if you absolutely *must* do it, you should at least get a little reproduction out of the deal." And most of those 'ancient sources' are themselves ancient by the time they pronounce on such things and appear to have conveniently forgotten the joys of sex in their earlier years. A bit like former teddy boys complaining about the behaviour of youth today. -- *Arkansas State Motto: Don't Ask, Don't Tell, Don't Laugh. Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

Do you feel unhappy? Try happypills! They'll make you happy. Even if you have a menial dead-end job!. And don't bother about trying to improve your lifestyle, the happypills will make you content with what you've got! Oh, and you, the creative one who doesn't do well on standardized tests? No diploma for you. Life of low-paying service-industry jobs. And you, the one with the tendency to rebel against the establishment? Sorry, you've got bad DNA. But don't worry, we'll have some gene therapy worked out soon that will remove your chance for heart attack, and that annoying streak of questioning the government. So yes, while science is theoretically capable of being used evilly you need to have a pretty good grasp on power to start with. Um. Also the case with religion. That's why I canm't just declare myself a prophet of the mighty Flying Spaghetti Monster and take over the world in his noodly name. What's the quote? "Evil people will always do evil things to good people, and good people will occasionally do evil things to evil people, but for good people to do evil things to good people takes religion"? Yes, but that';s lunacy. |
