Double standard -- hypocrisy at TR

anti-christian = foul mouthed punk?

Watch it, you $?{%^?$%^ $%!??%$#-##^%$!!

but I don't see much! :D

Not to mention, you KNOW that was intended only as a direct slam on this id10t known as [b]EPW[/b].

Having someone like THAT on YOUR team really doesn't do much for the image of the rest of the club, now does it? Maybe you need to revoke his membership privialages? Excommunicate him from the anti-christian fan club? B-)

(do you eat with that mouth? But then again, as GG has shown us, what do you expect from someone that likes "gravy" on their faggots? :0 )

gravy with [b]your[/b] faggots, followed by a little roly-poly and - if you wanted to do it properly - you'd end up with a spotted d:ck.

This can be done by both sexes but, traditionally, fellas like it best.

:p

I am to picky about who and what I eat! :D

Maybe if the names were translated to something that isn't so blantantly GAY....

Funny how so many words have been ruined by the homosexual movement.

The name "Bob" took the hardest hit here in the states, with "gay bob". :0

Parents. When naming your kids, think of every bad name that can be made out of the names you choose BEFORE giving it to your kids! Save them a lot of school yard beatings! B-) [i]this has been a public service announcement![/i]

many IT Professionals come to this IT site FOR professionals from work. What happens when they go to a page, and some foul mouthed punk was "cursing" just because they don't have the intelligence to support their ideas without the shock value of these words?

Now the net snoopers go off, and someone gets flagged for going to sites that have "inapropreate content" based on company policies.

Is this really what you want? I don't.

Clean it up and grow up.

Yes, sometimes it is confusing on which word will slide by and which won't, but that is were intent comes in.

sp*c is a derogatory word for (puerto ricans?)

I was trying to use in the context of a popular cleaning product which is (derogatory word for puerto ricans) and Span, in terms of keeping your computer's hd or registry system clean.

I didn't even think of the other context till I went to edit my post and saw **** in it's place :(

mmmm Steak and Kidney Pie!!!! WANT :D

although I must admit my favourit dish is Lamb's fry, or for those outside of Aus, or uneducated Lambs Liver! So good!
Cows tongue is also quite nice *nods*

I will have you know that there is no [b]THE[/b] anti-christ only [b]AN[/b] anti-christ and you are most certainly an insult to genuine anti-christs everywhere.

FYI anti-christ's are anyone who doesn?t follow Christian orthodoxy (as the literal definition of the name would have you believe). The anti-christ is an American concept (Hollywood) and has nothing to do with the beast of revelation (except in perceptions).

while being obviously erotic, is NOT a source of doctrine or supposed to describe normal marital sex.

It is a POEM -- get it? Extravagant imagery is quite normal in a POEM.

See 1 Corinthians Chapter 7 for St Paul's teaching on marriage, which DOES NOT in any way accentuate carnality.

A person smiling while in a halloween costume out with his family makes him look intoxicated? If you say so.

Back ground on pic.

Right at the tail of my divorce (of her choosing) so this was my way of informing friends at the halloween party I go to every year that we were no longer together. I am gleefully covered in blood holding a severed head. That way the ex-wife was still able to attend the party, (in spirt at least!)

There is nothing in that pic that will trip a sensor for people who browse this page from work, but your uneducated forms of communications will.

When you learn to communicate without having to resort to shock value, some people just might take you seriously. Someday. Go back to your trailer part where they find you amusing. Adults are having a discussion.

1? 2? 3?

Speaking of children?s welfare, did you know this? --- In the world today, on each and every day of each and every year, a child starves to death or dies from hunger related diseases every three seconds. 1 2? 3? there goes one. 1? 2? 3? and another 1? 2? 3? and another 1 2? 3? one more???.

And what is the response of our government, the ?Christian values? people in power in America? The silence is deafening isn?t it.

1?2?3? another child 1?2?3? and another. While the ?family values? Republicans plough hundreds of billions to the wealthiest Americans, while they pour hundreds of billions into Iraq, and hundreds more into our war machine, remember - 1? 2 ? 3? there goes another.

While the ?Christian? right fights against birth control, reproductive choice and AIDS vaccines; while it wastes our time and money on futile attempts to outlaw all things sexual outside of marriage between one man and one woman; while it rails against homosexuality and vilifies its opponents, remember - 1? 2? 3? another child gone.

The farcical tragedy of America?s ?family values? Republicans and ?Christian? right is that they are even less Christian than I am.
1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 ...........................

I?d be willing to bet that the overwhelming majority of people involved with the slaughter at Waco and the murders at Ruby Ridge considered themselves conservative and Christian. This goes all the way from the ones who lit the fires and pulled the triggers, to the ones who gave the orders, to the ones who approved the orders, to the ones who conceived the actions and gave the go ahead.

We all have blood on our hands for these murders and for more killing than we can possibly imagine. Our country, like most countries, has been built on an ocean of blood, much of it innocent blood. It?s high time we accepted this reality; and high time we faced this truth: there is little to be admired in murderers whether they are Democratic murderers or Republican murderers.

Hopefully you will learn some manners before you next make a sarcastic post to a long-standing member.

By the way, I distrust anyone who blocks the option to "Send private message." What are you afraid of?

Don't pay any attention to Julian.

He is the resident Aussi, anti-American, anti-Christian,anti-anything moral, ex-journalist in residence.

He is abusive and you are his latest target. He will attempt to discredit you rather than deal with anything that you write...

He just had a birthday and turned 65, so if you are kind to him he'll eat you up.

He is a bully. Kick him hard enough, and he'll whine in a corner...

Again, welcome to TR.

RTFM. The U.S. Constitution has no provisions for the welfare state.

We have no obligation to share tax revenue with those who don't belong to that group of people who didn't generate the taxes in the first place whether they are citizens of the USA or not.

The purpose of taxes should be to defend and protect our citizens, and to create a climate where we can thrive. Welfare is unconstitutional, actually it is extra-constitutional. They made a huge mistake in going beyond "Congress shall make no law" in the first amendment...

"No man's life, Liberty, or property is safe while the legislature is in session..."

Paul even lamented he didn't have a believing wife.

Let?s try this from a different tact. Let us say that Paul was against promiscuity and perversion.

Peter was married, as were many others of the disciples. In Fact, all except Paul were married.

The nature of man is as Paul directed to be married. "It is better to marry than to burn."
Paul was writing to widows, but in this it applies to all of us.

One of the best examples of husbands in the bible was a man who would work for years to get the woman he wanted. (14 years for Rachel). There were many children descended from these two people.

Since you are trying to take Paul?s writing out of context, you must have a problem with the fact that people of faith will state categorically that it is immoral to be promiscuous, or to practice abominations of perversion? You may have a personal problem with that viewpoint. Or, are you a pervert? Knowing your writing, you have a dog in the hunt. Are you immoral or a pervert, Julian?

As a Christian, I have this strange perversion, I am disobedient. I should shake off the dust from my shoes and let you go to hell on your own... I sometimes waste time and effort on people like you? I think that after you start to understand, you will believe.

The problem is I waste my time and resources, ?casting pearls before swine?.

I repent my efforts.

They are hiding behind sealed testimony that has been sealed by Bill Clinton for 75 years... Janet Reno said she was responsible, but she was apparently falling on the sword for the person who told the agent, convicted of 2nd degree murder to "Shoot the next peson who walks out that door." After that tidbid came out, the judge sealed the courtroom, then the judge lowered the charges from 1st degree murder to manslaughter. The jury deliberated for 9 minutes to get a guilty verdict.

Why did the procedings get sealed. Who got protected? That is much bigger scandal than Watergate. People died because of it. The guilty conspirators were let off the hook... You don't shoot an unarmed woman and her baby because someone tells you to. Not when they were never convicted of a crime.

They were challenging the IRS's right to exist in court.There was something about an amendment not being ratified properly...

-- We have no obligation to share tax revenue with those who don't belong to that group of people who didn't generate the taxes in the first place whether they are citizens of the USA or not. --

This is the face of American-style Christianity that would have Jesus rolling in the sepulcher. Can I get an amen for hypocrisy? I believe I can rest my case.

I do support some indigent people through a religious based charity. This I give willingly.

I don't think you (as a welfare recipient) have the right to take my money to support your life. If you try to just take money from my wallet I get to resist you in defense of my property.

In a like manner, people are stealing from me, and they use the power of the government to help them steal. That is wrong. No government should be in Welfare under the US constitution.

But, I believe that everyone be them rich or poor has the right to an equal start in life (see the Australian concept of a "fair go") once given this however, its up to them to make something of themselves.

Poor parents (see the definition of an ?Aussie Battler?) quiet often don?t have the money to send their children to a college or university even if they have high grades. So I believe that such people should not be reduced to a life of low paying work because they were born into it. Managing full time work (working an unqualified low paying job) and study is difficult especially if you are studying to get a good job (if you are studying for a promotion suck it up). Government should assist tertiary students (especially those who's families can afford the fee's) if for no other reason then to create an educated work force which in itself is an economic benefit.

Secondly a bloke who gets laid off or made redundant is down on his luck. This is the kind of person who should benefit from the dole, receive income assistance until he gets another job (within reasonable time and job market permitting). I have no patience for dole-bludgers, repeat NO patience for dole-bludgers.

to debate this point (I have made my position clear on welfare in a previous post, so this is not about welfare) I would say that this is one of the key idea behind governance itself. To ensure that food gets from the field into homes where it is needed.

Before the free market governments controlled the movement of food completely. This was done to ensure that the fewer people spent time labouring in the fields and more time on improving society (or whatever the ruler decided was important). The government still has a hand in the movement of food from the farms to your plate but now its assisted by market forces as well.

If governments didn?t take responsibility for feeding people at some point throughout history we would still be fighting each other over food like the did in Somalia not so long ago. Feeding the masses was an important step in improving government (as an concept not individual governments).

I just completed a search of the Bible for the phrases free market, capitalism and private property. You might be surprised to learn that 0 results were returned. There seems to be a real disconnect here. I?m talking about innocent children starving to death unnecessarily and you?re preaching free market ideology. If you want to be a strict free market advocate and allow that government has no role in the economy ? that?s fine. But don?t claim to be a follower of Jesus Christ at the same time. If you want to follow Christ ? that?s also fine. But don?t ascribe sacredness to free market capitalism at the same time. You cannot truly follow Christ and answer the suffering of children with platitudes about the inappropriateness of welfare.

Your contributions to the indigent are admirable. So are all the contributions of all the people who want to make a difference. Unfortunately, even with all this giving, one child dies from starvation or hunger related disease every THREE seconds. Remember, 1, 2, 3,? another child is gone -- 1,2, 3?and another?.

As far as our government is concerned, the Republican hypocrites, who currently control the most powerful and (so far) wealthiest nation on earth, have made a career of wrapping themselves in the mantle of Christianity. If they were doing anything other than using Christians for votes, these Republican leaders would be at the forefront of calls and actions to alleviate such mass and unnecessary suffering. It?s clear that lining their own pockets and the pockets of their friends, waging war and preserving power are much more important to them. I can?t imagine Jesus Christ being pleased with these phonies. What I can?t understand is why so many Americans who identify themselves as Christians tolerate this usurpation of their faith.

there is nothing like [b]Blue Moon[/b] for a walk in the sunset, along the river walk!

(at least you didn't say vanilla!) :p
