Yeah, nobody wants to see chunkers in bikini's, put it away love. The bird on the back of the bike has done well mind. Good girl.
That`s where it all goes downhill. Forcing your views on others. I wonder what the reaction would be if 5 girls wearing bikinis kicked the **** out of someone wearing a burqa. There`d be absolute hell on.
People get in the **** for just saying the burkah should be banned, never mind kicking 50 shades of **** out of one. I get around the racial discrimination part, by just refusing to acknowledge that there are people under a veil, I believe they're like robots from the desert, and until I see one remove the veil to reveal a tasty slag under there, I will continue to think they are just burkabots.
Some excellent points being made. Kudos to Vegas and Terry. Mind you Terry I laughed out loud, far to loudly and far too long at this. I clearly am never going to heaven. Man making stuff up and claiming you can't prove me wrong, so what I say is true, is the basis of most beliefs. Most of the Bible and Qur'an is clearly nonsense and as has been said here, when believers have scientific proof saying so, they move the goalposts or claim it's allegorical yet anything not disproved is still the literal word of God!!! "Some people speak as if we were not justified in rejecting a theological doctrine unless we can prove it false. But the burden of proof does not lie upon the rejecter.... If you were told that in a certain planet revolving around Sirius there is a race of donkeys who speak the English language and spend their time in discussing eugenics, you could not disprove the statement, but would it, on that account, have any claim to be believed? Some minds would be prepared to accept it, if it were reiterated often enough, through the potent force of suggestion." J.B.Bury 1914 "I ought to call myself an agnostic; but, for all practical purposes, I am an atheist. I do not think the existence of the Christian God any more probable than the existence of the Gods of Olympus or Valhalla. To take another illustration: nobody can prove that there is not between the Earth and Mars a china teapot revolving in an elliptical orbit, but nobody thinks this sufficiently likely to be taken into account in practice. I think the Christian God just as unlikely." Bertrand Russell 1950s (Russell if speaking today may have moved his teapot further out if he was making his point today. As science has moved us on so much further than the 50s.) "The Hitch-hikers guide to the Galaxy" is more believable to me than any religious tome. It also talks of teapots and a planet called Russell at the edge of our solar system!!!!! Coincidence? I think not! Quite clearly Adams was a space alien who had control of a real improbability drive!
The way I look at religion, mostly now is... it's more comedy than anything else. It's actually a really funny topic when you have a bunch of atheists and one religious person in the room, it happens quite often actually, but people don't realise because they're too busy talking bollocks! It's like bullying that's allowed.
I don't know mate, but I fear for the poor feline beasts lurking within squashing distance behind them, they can't stand up for long you know!
huge fan of Adams - one of my favourite quotes and apt for this thread too- It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination
I have no idea how the universe was created & I've never much thought about it. It's way over my head. I know one thing though, the bible is a ****ing crock of ****. FFS, are we expected to believe that they nailed a man to a lump of wood that could turn water into wine? That ginger **** would be richer than Bill Gates. And the virgin birth. What the ****'s that all about? The holy ghost shagging some young bird whose hubby hasn't even ****ed? Poor old Joseph, had to bring up a bastard child that wasn't even his. Nah, it's a ****ing fairy story.
Recently re-read all the Guides back to back on my tablet. Haven't enjoyed myself so much since I discovered "it", did more than piss over high walls. I still think Zaphod was a twat mind. Oh and the "Americanized" film was total pish. Totally miscast apart from Trillian who I would quite happily cut off my left knacker to bang.
I agree the movie was a huge disappointment - didn't get to grips with Adams books whatsoever as for the Zooey Deschanel role I couldn't express your apt sentiments better myself
That's my religion, believe in doing the right thing, even if the masses tell you it's wrong. Yeah . . . . like when 'the masses' say that someone like Tees should have priority parking when taking his 2 bairns to the shops, and you say '****-em'
""The Hitch-hikers guide to the Galaxy" is more believable to me than any religious tome. It also talks of teapots and a planet called Russell at the edge of our solar system!!!!! Coincidence? I think not! Quite clearly Adams was a space alien who had control of a real improbability drive!" I love hitch-hickers guide. I am going to read them all again now because of this thread. Adams was quite brilliant. Someone said earlier aliens altered the DNS strain so we evolved from the apes, thats rubbish, we evolved from the Golgafrinchans of B ark, a bunch or hair dressers and telephone sanitisers. Don't forget your towel lads.
