True. Unless you post your beeswax on a public forum and then wait for comments that is.





That's a fair statement.

Have you? You obviously have the time and you could pass out your atheism booklets at the same time. Your currently underachieving, HM.




Of course not, Bill. Because, unlike you, I do not support Bush's crazy "crusade." So when are you going, Bill?

Well, if you forget the butt-freezing cold in the winter, Sweden is as close to heaven as you can get without being a theist. In fact, even if you are a theist, it will still be the closest thing to heaven you'll ever get.
And the part about depressions is another subject that requires critical thinking.

Great job, Halfmooner! I enjoyed it!

Thanks, Mab! I'll have to visit Sweden someday. Maybe in summer, if you have one. Glad to see you're not depressed today!

I'll tell you what, as soon has you head over to the horn of Africa and start combating world hunger with your atheism booklets I will go drive a truck in Iraq.

SFN is accessible in the Horn of Africa, so I already did as you suggested, Bill. However, I never suggested that handing out atheism tracts (and this was a mockery of a religious tract, Bill, not an atheist one) would combat word hunger. But if religion were gone from the Horn of Africa, the starvation would probably be manageable there.

Seems to me you're avoiding putting your convictions on the line in Iraq, Bill. That decision of yours should be morally independent of anything this old, crippled veteran might do. You afraid the Mission may not actually have been Accomplished over there, Bill? Certainly, if the President of the United States is inviting civilian volunteers to go there, it must be safe. Where is your Messiah now, Bill? Where are your brave, crusading convictions?

If it's a matter of expense, we could start a "Send Bill Scott to Baghdad" fund!

You can mock my hobbies and me, too Bill, anytime. I'm enjoying this exchange!

I KNEW you'd screw this up. There are two things are issue: a) HM's hobby to use his computer to doctor images for fun, and b) the theme of atheism v. Christianity/religion. You attacked HM by implying that his hobby-- messing around on the computer-- is a waste of time. But when I pushed back asking what makes you think your hobbies are better, go defensive and suggest that you're just dishing things out as HM did. But you're not. HM didn't mock anyone for fishing, or building model cars, or collecting stamps. He satarized some juvenile Christian propoganda by turning it into faux-atheist propoganda. That's what he was dishing. YOU are dishing something else.

So the question remains: if HM has too much time on his hands, and if his hobby is such a waste of time, what is it that you do with your free time that's so fantastic and productive?

It'd be mighty funny if the answer is "I distribute Jack Chick tracts."

It's funny, because it's probably true!

Bill, if you don't like to drive trucks, Chick Publications has Tracts in Arabic! You can get a bunch, then go door to door in Iraq, handing them out! That should make for an exhilarating five minutes.

Well then you failed, by your own admission. This might take a personal trip over.

Your claim is that religion is the cause of hunger in the Horn of Africa. So obviously atheism is the solution to world hunger. You need to get over there with your tracts.

Manageable, I thought you said that religion was the cause?

Not me, dude. As I have said many times I supported the invasion and the search and destroy of any WMD's that we were told were still there. As I have also said many times that obviously the US military is not going to install a democracy where one is not wanted. As I have said many times before, I would have declared victory and begun my exit strategy a long time ago, were I in charge.

That he does. They'd murder an atheist even quicker than a fundy Christian. But the next round would go for the fundy.

I'm glad you have limits on your support of Bush, and in your religious zeal, when it goes against common sense in terms of staying alive. Maybe there's hope for you yet, Bill.
