Sack The Padres?

[Theland1]

In the event of a totally secular government. should the military Padres be sacked as irrelevant?

Use the money from your paper round to invest in a dictionary....

[ghetto poet]

you just cant leave me alone can you monkey, my words realy get your passions going. give into it, you can becaome one of ghettos girls.

[Octavius]

I can�t honestly say I have seen any racism emanating from Naomi.
Not sure where you got that ghetto, but I think you are wrong.

Belittling religious beliefs through cries of �illogical�, �sad�, �deluded� or �retarded� are atheist traits generally, not necessarily of naomi. It gives them purpose � what�s the point of calling yourself an atheist if you don�t deride the religious people? - It�s par for the course: harmless and mostly ineffectual.

[Octavius]

errr...... "have NOT seen."

[Octavius]

Doh, double negative now.
You all know what I mean.

[monkeyeyes]

ghetto poet - I think you'll find the prospect of me becoming one of your 'bitches' almost as unpalatable as I would...........

Besides, I thought you were dead set against that sort of thing ?

Your assertions that naomi's posts are full of racist remarks and sentiment, are plain wrong.

[ghetto poet]

monkey are you saying that your not a woman?

[monkeyeyes]

Did you think I was ?

[naomi24]

Oh dear, what�s this. Our gang? Seems schools out again. :o)

Everton, I�ve checked the thread and although, as I said, I haven�t a clue what you�re talking about, I�ve come to the conclusion that you don�t either.

You addressed your comments about Hindus to Mibs, not to me, and I didn�t respond to it at all.

As for correcting me, I was talking to Chakka, who asked more than once for someone to tell him who was doing the pre-determining (as he puts it). I don�t think I was wrong in saying you believe it�s your God - unless, of course, you think it�s someone else who does the pre-determining - in which case I would have been wrong.

For anyone who can be bothered to look, here�s the thread.

Now, perhaps when this little clique stops behaving like a bunch of big girls blouses and offers something that comes vaguely close to adult conversation, we may be able to conduct an intelligent discussion.

Incidentally, Octavius, I am not an Atheist. I refer to your God as the �Biblical� God simply to distinguish him from what I believe to be God. And my thanks to you and to Monkeyeyes - no, I am not racist either. The last time I asked Ghetto Poet to qualify his accusations he came up with something someone else had said. Sad innit. :o)

[Octavius]

Naomi, I wasn't saying you were an atheist, just that such statements as I have quoted are the bread and butter of your very average atheist on here and not the preserve of one such as yourself. If you reread the sentence I think I made sense.

[ghetto poet]

monkey are you gay?

[monkeyeyes]

No.
Would you like me to be ?

[keyplus90]

Monkeys are animals. They are just monkeys. Nothing like gay, bisexual, homosexual, straight, in open relation, heterosexual and all the other words like these. Only human are privileged with these criterion.

So stop calling monkey gay. Its rude and might as well upset few animals.

[monkeyeyes]

Someone once told me that my eyes were like monkeys eyes......I chose then and choose now to believe that she was being complimentary.

You might want to check your answer there, keyplus.........you forgot any mention of Islam.......

[123everton]

I do indeed believe that a Christian God influences my life from time to time, but I stated quite clearly that Hindus also believe that their Hindu God (or Goddess) influences their lives.
I make no judgement as to what others believe as they're entitled to believe what they will and so long as they don't use it to p1ss on my chips then I don't really care that much.
I've come to the conclusion that your decision to ignore the Hindu aspect on the thread as another example of your Christianophobia.

[naomi24]

Everton, This is priceless! So now you admit I didn't respond to your reference to Hindus - and that I wasn't wrong in saying you think your God influences your life. Not man enough to apologise though, I note. You really are hilarious when you try to squirm out of situations you've landed yourself in, Everton. Thanks for the laugh. :o)

Incidentally, as for me being Christianophobic, you'll be surprised to learn that the greatest bible thumper we have here in R&S, for very practical reasons, knows differently. However, it matters not, since this is a forum for discussion, and unlike you and your little gang of silly, sniggering, schoolboy bullies, rather than taking everything anyone says as a personal slight, I am capable of debating objectively.

[Octavius]

I can't see where Everton has tried to squrim out of anything naomi, what is your point?

The schoolboy bullies jibe is really unbecoming, but if that was the point of your post, then well done you for making it.

[terambulan]

Addendum re Padres etc. If the ratio of another faith tipped to a majority other than christianity, ie sikhs/moslems/buddhists/jewish/whatever am sure other faith leaders would be enlisted into the forces.

If you want to change it......join the Brit forces!

Stop ganging up, like a troop of monkeys, on Naomi and have the courtesy to adhere to Theland's question.

[naomi24]

No jibe, Octavius - simply a realistic observation - on both counts.
