i am the new vermin.. of course by disfellowshipping myself i don't need put a yellow star on my jacket.
but i am identifying myself to be looked at and resented like people did with the jews.. yes i am overdramatising my possible misfortune.
i will still be allowed on the buses, to visit the zoo, and such places that were deprived the sight of jewish families.

so i was fooled by the witnesses.
what can i learn from that?
not to accept things at face value but to seek out opinion and different view points.. hence my question " do you believe man landed on the moon?.
Makes sence Morpheus.
Who cares if man landed on the moon, all I want is a bit of inner space when I come home from work, so I can park my car.

So Sir 82 " Goodwins Law!
Sir 82 " It was inevitable"
The Rebel:- Goodwins law is a new concept to me " Sir 82", but is this understanding correct?
Does " Goodwins law" mean that the longer a thread goes on the more likelihood " Hitler" or the word "Nazi "will be bought in to the discussion?
If so that makes sence to me. Hitler had his beginning with small words, and those small words became speeches. And as people listernd to those small words, which became speeches we got the concentration camps.
So would I be correct to assume " Goodwins Law" is a protection,and a reminder that we will always have little internet bullies?
Personally I see how an Internet bully is like a " Nazi ".
So thank you for that " sir 82" I can now see how bullies need support to became secure in their environment . I can imagine when they have that confidence they jump to life and their words become a downpour of bombs on the victim.
Maybe this way the Internet bullies " ego" is fed for a short while?
Anyway in my opinion I always imagined the bully as very insecure. Or maybe he sees HIMSELF with superior intelligence, and ingenious perfection. In either case I believe he Has a longing to be acknowledged by his "followers "and so repeats the bullying on a daily basis....hence " Goodwins Law"

DJS."AND A LIAR"
the Rebel (A) So do you really think my having decided to make my last post, and then returning a month later makes me a liar?
I have returned to this thread, trying to highlight posters like you who bully and ridicule .Your cheap shot calling me a " liar" is open for people to reach their own conclusion.
I personally found the comment as childish as your insults to those who believe in Jesus.

Viviane, long before we had the Internet and forums, we had people who liked to bully people. Hitler was very good at it. The a Elders were very good at it. And Internet forum bullies are very good at it.
Having revived this thread athiest, stubborn set in his ways Cofty appears. And you know what the difference is in my opinion between you and Cofty ? Cofty try's to educate, inform and teach. He cares and likes people.

Cofty " our world is not falling apart, get some historical perspective"
I would say historical perspective doesn't have modern day air conditioner, so I hope your right and that i am pleasantly surprised.
You then as most posters in contention highlight only a part of my thread " what right do we have to explore outer space with the trillions of billions when our own world is falling a part"?
So let's note I then asked " can you reply sincerely?"
Your answer " science is good for humanity, often in ways we can't predict" So a fair and sincere answer to that part of my thread.

Why should I quit? and I am not sure I am ahead?
Did I once "NOT" believe in Dinosaurs?
A)
Now I know there are fossils everywhere.
So I believe in Dinosaurs.
Do I believe Gods word because it is written in found in" The New World Translation"
A) I did once.
I guess later in my reasoning I found facts to base those believes on, rather than foolish belittling comments from people who were only sure they were right.

DJS....
One more thing about PRIDE, it's like a drug.
DJS I new you would come back here for more. The trouble with you is you don't " read" or " hear" enough of what a person is saying. You just like the retort, to say people don't listen to your facts. And if people don't believe like you, you throw the dick jokes in....but instead of quitting the topic some people like me stand up to thread bullies like you.
So in conclusion shut up with your little jokes, when you don't even read a thread. Or do me a favour think of something origional to insult me by when your reply...

It's amazing how. when we want to tell the world about the way we see the world, we become such arseholes

Well I took a lot of shit from Vivianne and her side kick DJS for this thread.
So what did I learn?
Well two months later and viewing posts impartially I found the thread educational.
( Viviane, I guarantee the man you offerd a bottle of whiskey to would, ( if he could accept ) find sipping the whiskey bitter if he had to read your daily posts)
But back on thread.
So aside from Vivians " insecure" bully comments I learnt that the money spent on the moon project produced a lot of great science that benefited the world I live in today.
That is a FACT.
But my opinion hasn't changed, I'm still NOT 100% convinced man landed on the moon.
So why go back to this thread?
Because I learnt WHO cares if we can explore outer space and if we landed on the moon, " IF we can't respect each other in a civil way, on a discussion forum who cares?
What right do we have to explore outer space,with the trillions of billions when our own world is falling apart?
Well unless you can sincerely answer, I generally try to treat posters and their sincere comments with respect and not my own ego, who cares what you believe?
