Adkins reaction to Chelsea hammering
anothersaintinsouthsea replied to Thedelldays's topic in The Saints
FFS, forgot how boring this end of the message board was when we lose. When we got promoted last season did the bed wetters really think that this season would be much different? -
Right, I admit I'm a sad bastard. Anyway, it appears we took 1428 to Walsall on a Tuesday night. http://www.upthesaddlers.com/bb/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=36821&start=60

Not sure but the crowd was 650 higher that day.

+1 for the LG 3d tv, really impressed.

How much religion gets into your Christmas?
anothersaintinsouthsea replied to norwaysaint's topic in The Lounge
Well I was only referring to belief in God. Any parent who thinks they are a good person should seek to pass on good values to their kids. If you think you arrived at religious belief through reason, logic and rational thought then you either don't understand what they mean or you are just kidding yourself. It's called "faith" for a reason. Try expressing your reasons for your belief in the existence of God and we'll see the characteristics of faith not objective evidence. As for "world view" all I've said is that I don't believe in God. Does that qualify as a world view? -
Williams admits himself that he "struck it in frustration" so that takes the last ditch clearance explanation out of the equation.

Yep, my first view. Think Fergie was being a bit dramatic but I reckon he meant it. If RVP had stayed down then Williams would've been red carded.

Well you can condition your kids to value reason, rationality and logic or you can condition your kids to believe in 2000 year old book. In any case I tell my kids that I don't believe in God but they can believe in whatever they want. There's a difference between telling your kids what you and others believe, and telling them what to believe. -

But most believers don't make an active choice. My colleague's child started a Catholic school in September and by November he'd learnt to cross himself and knows off by heart several different prayers - and he's not even four and a half. What choice did he make? -

The first thing you wrote in response to my point was which was wholly irrelevant to anything in my comment hence my reference to your imagination. Quite, did anyone suggest otherwise? Exactly, no one has ever committed an atrocity in the name of atheism but plenty of committed atrocities in the name of God which is a reason for many to criticise religion. -

This makes interesting reading. Consensus being that Hitler probably believed in God but was dissatisfied with organised Christianity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_views_of_Adolf_Hitler In any case the evil of the Nazis was in the name of national socialism, racial purity and racial superiority, and certainly not in the name of atheism. How much of their pathological hatred of the Jews was religious as opposed to social, economic, and racial is open to debate but it certainly played a major part. -

Sigh, I'm sure it is more enjoyable to imagine what people have written rather than actually what they've written. My point is this, nothing more and nothing less. Millions of people have done good and evil in the name of their religion, no one has ever done anything in the name of atheism. -

Plenty of people have done evil (and good) things in the name of their religion. I'm not aware of anyone doing anything in the name of atheism. -
Feb half-term going to Serfaus in Austria. Great resort especially for kiddies but not well known in the UK.

It was a draw right? Talk about emphasis in what a **** few years they've been having....

so glad that someone who has also achieved so much in life and given so much to this country all of their life got to present the award to Seb Coe. But seriously - Kate - wtf? Ortherwise it's been pretty good tonight. -
Billy Sharp is celebrating the birth of a son

+1, fantastic news. -
Well that would make a change!

Right, haven't bothered to read any posts yet. Can someone provide a quick summary? Judging from my research on POL I'm presuming the judge has set the value at £2.75m, the PST are immenently due to take control of the club, Chanrai has given up and the mostest passionatist fans in the world are gearing up to celebrate with flags at the next home match. It has all gone to plan hasn't it?

If you go back enough generations you will find someone very famours such as Royalty. It stands to reason given the maths involved.

I think there's already plenty of (repressed) Gays already in the Church. Isn't that part of the problem?
