... of all that elephant talk. Consider that things may not be as they appear. Think about what that means to you. More importantly, what does that mean for your friends and family, and your offspring? What kind of a world will you leave to your kids by your apathy, letting those unanswered questions remain unanswered? I will say it again: Honor the dead by the unending pursuit of the truth, no matter where that leads. BudBurner

.... :-) Sadly, Cindy's activities got little support. I always read the CommonDreams site for keeping up on what is going on and I remember reading her "I give up" post there when she realized that public apathy was the true problem here and although most thinking people were pretty much on her side of the fence there were no hard commitments from anyone for throwing their resources behind it. Sort of hijacked the thread here, ...

... false messiah. Any God of Abraham who chooses and prefers Jews does not then abandon them does he?  So obviously whatever the Jews believe would be correct. This is blatantly obvious. The detachment and apathy taught to Buddhists and these kind of peoples has caused them a lot of damage.  As these were very sarcastic teachings which were absolutely wrong - and should not in any way have been ...

... and KNOW that no all loving Divine Being would ever request something like this. You will find all your religions are us playing various parts. Tests and humour. And of course intelligence. The teachings of detachment and apathy - again tests and humour. Detachment is the OPPOSITE of what you are supposed to do. PASSION is the right way. Fight for the truth. Fight for justice. Fight for right. So again we caught them out with our...

It is no good practicing detachment or apathy, or sitting there looking stupid saying OM, or meekly saying your prayers and being pious and religious. You must have a PASSION for truth, a PASSION for justice, a PASSION for what is good and true and right - and you must want to be God with a PASSION. To want to be more, better, stronger, greater - to have power over nature - to be more than human - better than human. To BE the one ...

... don't think I'll bother, thanks. I see I'm dealing with anti-science, science types. If it makes sense, ignore it. If it's nonsense, it must be true. I gather you also are a fervent believer in Global Warming? Your position is perfectly situated in the null set: nonsense. He probably doesn't believe in set theory, either. -- Michael F.

We have been living in a zero-sum political environment where all heads have been lowered to avert being lopped off by angry, noisy extremists. I am convinced that Barack Obama is ...
