I quite like the new Simon. It's good to see your passion come out Simon - even though I disagree with many of your views (over time of course you will realize that mine are the correct answers). I have enjoyed seeing you let loose a little.

The passion of the Bush.....
by LongHauler inok, so this really has nothing to do with bush... .
at least directly.
ever since 9/11 and the begining of the iraq war there has been a growing tide of anti-americanism.

To the people of Spain
by Amazing1914 in.
this terrible event in your land saddens us all ... i am sorry that those responsible are likely doing this to get revenge upon your nation for its support of the united kingdom, the usa and other coalition of nations devoted to the war on terror ... you and your loved ones killed so tragically are in our thoughts and prayers ... your natioin is honored among us all ... and may you heal from this as quickly as possible.

How about ALL countries lowering their standard of living? That is ALL countries that have a standard of living.
Why?
Answering for me personally: NEVER.

IG,
That was so funny - I died laughing at it. I wonder if Chirac immediately picked up the red phone and dialed America to help again.
"Sorry George Bush, we love America, I was only kidding about your country. Help me please and we French will forever be your allies"....

Jesus versus Judas. (May cause offence)
by Englishman injesus was a ransom sacrifice for many.
according to scripture, he died to save the world and carried the sins of the world with him as he died.
he actually suffered an horrendous death, dying 3 hours after being crucified.

Why is the religious right in bed with Israel?
by Simon init always seems strange to me that the religious right in america and elsewhere is so 'in bed' with israel.. if you look at the history and beliefs, surely christianity has more in common with muslims who believe in christ (as a prophet) then in judaism which was the very religion that christ was rejecting and was killed by!.
surely for christians, the jews were "the bad guys" having rejected the messiah and forfeiting their position as gods chosen people?.
so why the support?

So, the religious right in the USA are in bed with Israel because they are a bunch of fanatical nut-jobs.
I couldn't agree more.
Now if I could convince the non-religious folk to be capitalists we would get a long. Alas, it seems you are either religious or socialist these days. I will take religious folk over socialists...

Adultery a crime under US Military Justice ?!?
by Simon ini'd never heard of this before ... is it true?
is it regularly invoked or was this just an attempt to charge him with anything and everything and possibly just ruin his reputation?.
"a month later, he faced fresh charges, including adultery - a crime under us military justice ...".

LW said:
I am assuming from the available context that the injured party prevailed over the reckless. For that I am greatful on behalf of the kids involved.
However Yeru had posted:
....when it was all over with the guy lost custody of his 2 year old son, lost his car, and went to military jail for 6 months and received a dishonorable discharge...which was harder on the guy, my beating him down, or the Army doing it for me?
HUH? Am I insane? Why am I the one seeing that the actions taken hurt a kid?
Yeru was wronged...but his revenge hurt not just the offender - based on the information given by him.
Damn it sucks to be a stupid Donkey.

I don't think Yeru was "boasting about taking away childrens father" I think he gave a differing and relevant view on the original post.
I gathered that thanks. But either way my post stands...the effect of his actions would be accurate. I am not condemning Yeru - just questioning the system.

Some days I really hate having been a dub...
by Abaddon in... okay, this is a real glass-half-full day, in fact it's a glass-half-full of nothing falling into a pit of infinate depth day.. does anyone else have re-occuring getting-one's-shit-together problems?.
i can get a job, get promoted real quick, i'm reasonably smart, when motivated i can work other people into a physical decline.
yet i always hide from reality in some way; chiefly financial.

Yet I always hide from reality in some way; chiefly financial. I am utterly shit at time management. I have problems completing things.
Ab,
Your post was a little vague. Hiding from reality, chiefly financial...
I assume that you hate administrative drudgery and therefore don't do it because it adds little value until you are asked for it later and in your heart you know it is a necessary evil...correct me if i am wrong.
If I can help you in any way let me know,
Donkey

He HAD freewill. God simply KNEW how Judas would exercise that freewill beforehand. Isn't that possible?
...right!!!!
It's like a friend once told me....If you are on a gameshow and I am the quizmaster and I ask you a question and I always have YOUR answer on a piece of paper in my pocket do you have free will if I am guaranteed to have the exact answer YOU will give to all questions (your answer irrespective of whether it is correct or not)? Sound totally implausible? I thought so....
