She's Leaving Home..Bye Bye..
by Englishman inyour 20 year old son / daughter announces that he / she is involved in an intense relationship with someone that is causing you to have some misgivings.. said offspring also announces that wedding bells will be ringing inside a year or two.
firstly though, our two lovebirds have plans to set up home together and live in delightful sin whilst they save up for the big day.
convene a judicial committee?.

Glasto-Aposto-Fest
by Abaddon ina few days ago the license for glastonbury 2002 was granted.. for those that don't know, glastonbury is a music and art fesitval in the heart of the english countryside.
about 100,000 people, music from big names like rem and radiohead, all the way down to small folk bands (there are dozens of stages), including a dedicated world/jazz music stage, hundreds of stalls selling all sorts of food and trinkets, a circus, a comedy tent, a cinema tent, a whole section dedicated to alternative/green technologies (solar-powered internet cafe?
) and new age what-have-you... you camp in tents whilst you're there, and the only real downside is the toilets, unless it rains.... think of a well organised woodstock that gives huge amounts to charities.

Okay Fess Up: What's Your Handle Mean?
by Mindchild inokay fess up: whats your handle mean?.
my handle: mindchild comes from computer scientist and futurist dr. hans moravec: who wrote the book, the future of robot and human intelligence which is a book about when we will be able to construct machines capable of human intelligence and raises the possibility of uploading ourselves (every thought we ever had) into an android body much superior to the human ones we have now.
i entertain the hope that not only will i live long enough to see this happen, i will transfer myself (the complete essence of what is me) into a body of my own choosing and become immortal if i so choose.

Life In The Comfort Ghetto.
by Englishman inyesterday, uk home secretary david blunkett stirred the patriotic pot by announcing that it was high time that britains asian community adopted a more british life style by at least learning to speak the language of their adopted country.. be that as it may, it has certainly got the media a-buzzing.
but an interesting point came out on todays jimmy young show on radio 2 that could equally apply to jehovahs witnesses who put up mental blocks to reasoned thinking.. a female mp member of parliament spoke at great length about foreign minority groups who shut themselves away from the outside world.
they have, she said, their own language, their own customs and their own people around them all the time.

God ordered abortions?
by Julie ini have a question.
i have asked it in a private discussion with a fundamentalist who cowardly ignored the whole premise of the thought and am hoping there is someone here who can address it.. i am aware of the fact that abortion is one hot button topic.
it is not my intention to make this a debate about abortion.

I AM THE HEAD OF MY HOUSE! (wife says its OK)
by Englishman intheres little else in life that is more ludicrous than a pompous jw.. correction.
there is little else in life that is more ludicrous than a pompous male jw.
especially one of the elder variety, one of those guys what tell people what to do.. think about it, it just isnt natural for a man to be the head of the house .
