There are two subjects one should never discuss on a political board |
|
Sports and religion.
It's only polite.

In theory that will help Arizona, but I think all hope is gone for this team.
In my heart, I'm a forever Cubs fan.

Religion is intergral to world views. It is wrong to assail a religion but one must consider them in discussing politics.

10. REligion is only integral to politics when talking about |
|
hierarchal structures of theocratic societies.
Otherwise, it has as much bearing on politics as sorcery.
we are talking about Fantasy RolePlaying games, right?

Who wrote the law mandating that Religion is immune to criticism? And why can't I critique Gods,and/or their religion? In as much as religion has taken over the republican party and made it the party of hate and blatant discrimination, I think we all should have the right to be critical of both politics and religion. It really irritates me when people say we must repect others religion. I do not believe in gods, devils, heaven , or hell. I have no respect for gods or their religion. I have just as much right to voice my opinion of religion as the religionist have to bang the drum for their particular religion. Why should anyone think that only one side be allowed a voice? Atheist have rights too, you know.

Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned it.

20. Well, this surely will not be the cause of another! |
|
In answer to JohnyCanuck's question about who's going to win the World Series...I predict my Red Sox will win.....
Now STOP THAT!
Your wife is going to get pretty sick of having to check and make sure you're alright all the time.

21. Yaks and thongs are certainly all right |
|
In fact, I believe it's a law of some kind that every thread must include a minimum quota of each, must maintain a minimum level of yak and thong references. I've hereby just innoculated this thread.
