Underpinning Societal And Personal Values?

[Theland]

What do you believe underpins western societal values?
Whatever it is, if anything, is it the same as underpins your own personal values?

//I need a rest from responding to you for a while.//
No skin of my nose m8. You dont respond anyway, merely ask another (more distracting quesion) when you get a reply.
You asked why I hate Christians so much and I asked why you think that. You simply ignored my request for why you think I hate Christians when one of my closest friends is a retired pastor and spat ur dummy out of ur pram.
Kval is right, you are dreadful at answering any questions put to you.

I posted this almost exactly twenty-four hours ago -

// Theland - As usual you ask a question, but you don't really want any answers that don't agree with what you already want as responses, hence your testy replies and agitated CAPITALS. //

And nothing has changed!

Theland is still agitated, only wanting answers that chime with his view of the world, and getting cross when he doesn't get it.


I sincerely don't know why you bother Theland - those who have any vestiges of energy left continue to try and exchange ideas with you, the rest - and I am one - have given up plaiting fog and simply don't bother.

[andy-hughes]

nailit - we cross-posted, but I can see even your considerable patience is wearing thin now.

//Plaiting Fog// - lol, awesome Andy x

[Theland]

Nailit - Here we go again!
Do you honestly believe that true Christians, really really believed in slavery, sending kids up chimneys, and hanging nine year olds for petty theft?
Really?
Do you not think that true Christian reformers like William Wilberforce, Elizabeth Fry, Barnado did what they could to fight against the exploitative capitalist forces prevalent at the time? And continue to do so?

andy, its not just wearing thin now. Its got a great big gaping hole in it...
Theland, I wish you all the best in your delusions, goodnight.

[Theland]

Andy Hughes - The last thing you asked is if I enjoyed a night out.
Yes. Many. And many more. And a few more back home afterwards.
So what is your point ?

[Theland]

Nailit - Thank you for the, "deluded," comment.
Not really nice is it?
The anonymous insult yet again.
Oh well.

You’re all beginning to realise that entering into debate with Theland is pointless. He’s a wind-up merchant. Just walk away.

[Theland]

Zac - Answer THE question in the heading if you like, or ask one here and now. Respectfully.

[Zacs-Master]

You lost my respect when you called me a ‘nob’. Twice.

[nailit]

Zacs, take ur own advice and ignore the wind up merchant ;-)

[Theland]

Zac - Apologies.

[Theland]

Zac, Nailit, how about the original question?

[nailit]

Theland, This is my last post on this thread.
YOU ask questions...to which you get replies. Replies which you obviously don't like so you move the goalposts and ask another question. When YOU are asked a question you dodge it or totally ignore it. I asked YOU why you think that I hate Christians so much, when I obviously don't as one of my closest friends is a retired pastor...YOU completely ignored that and changed the subject.
This has been a repeating theme of your posts. Its like trying to have a conversation with a call centre answering machine...
Press 1 to be ignored
Press 2 to be asked a question that you have already answered
Press 3 to be taken back to the original OP even though the conversation has moved on
press 4 to have your own opinions disregarded
Press 5 to repeat yourself Ad infinitum to deaf ears
Press 6 to view a you tube video
Press 7 to try and have a debate with someone about a book that you yourself have read but the OP hasnt but is an authority on it anyway
Press 8 to be told that you are wrong (on everything) because some ancient middle eastern goat herders knew the answer to life, the universe and everything
Press 9 to return to menu.

As I said, my last post on this thread Theland. If you ask me anymore questions here and I ignore you, then maybe you can begin to understand the frustration others feel when you do the same.
But then you will only feel superior that others ''can't'' answer wont you? (at least in your own mind)

[Theland]

A sad farewell then.

[Mamyalynne]

Amen.

[Theland]

Thanks Mamya. Comforting.

//What do you believe underpins western societal values?//

Stupidity.

//is it the same as underpins your own personal values?//

No. I prefer honesty and integrity.

Theland - // Andy Hughes - The last thing you asked is if I enjoyed a night out. //


Actually, I didn't proof, if any were needed, that you don't read responses properly - the badge of the self-opinionated questioner who only wants answers he agrees with, as I pointed out in the post you didn't read.

// So what is your point ? //

Exactly like you Theland, I don't have one.
