Religions are all a pile of crock. Understood as philosophical treatises, they're harmless (if poorly thought out). Their main problem is that by their very nature they're dogmatic, which more or less means, Leave your brain here you won't need it anymore.

And if you think about it, there's a lot of people who are just queuing up to take out all that excess weight in their heads.

It would not be a world war, nor would it really be a war as such. What is needed is a lot tighter border control (not this stupid EU system), and we need to be tougher about immigration, and then we need to ensure people settling in Europe live by European values, and that those who wish to hard others are dealt with properly as a deterrent to others who would try to hard the innocent. I know that in the UK they are always catching people who were plotting terrorism. A perfect reason why hanging should be brought back. They are traitors, and should be pushed as such. At the very least those who can be deported should be, especially those who commit major crimes.

It would be unfortunately. Many people will defend all these P.C. and equal rights crap (not all is crap, but a lot is) just for the sake of it, to make themselves feel righteous. While I think more would support more firm action, the politicians are too scared to make that step towards such action. Sadly I think it will get much worse before people do what is needed to ensure we can go back to how it was not too long ago and we did not have all this terrorism to the extent it is today.

Oh, very cool :-D Just Oogled it and found a pic.
... I love cream of mushroom soup :-þ,',','

Good morning to Owl lady, EIT, Super and Joker Rabbit. =)

Apologies, got sidetracked, now trying to catch up.

Could try to spew out some cliched "don't feel bad, it's gonna be all right, promise!" dogshit at you, but you know better.

There's some blue sky visible behind the clouds, rather bright. It's warmer than usually in November. not a bad day for a walk. +5 celcius.
Do you have any plans for today?

Thanks.
Ho yeah, she did like this one n__n ... I hope she ate him. And hopefully the paper had voodoo properties. That guy needs to stop making music :-)

We have dark clouds here, but then we have been having quite a bad storm these last few days form a hurricane. The day is nice though, a cold wind and at least it is not raining yet, so maybe a nice walk would be fun. No big plans for the day. I am home alone for a while my partner gets some things done, then we will just relax at home.

Gonna have to disagree with you on that one. Getting better? Not really. Holding pattern of sometimes better, sometimes a whole lot worse? Sounds more reasonable. But then, I've always thought of myself as a bit of an optimist by nature.

The tricky part of the whole equation is what to focus on - conversion, or extermination. You can't have both. Start killing thousands of people, and odds are, you'll be generating martyrs by the truckload.

What to do, what to do...can't really go for hearts and minds, everyone's already been programmed. Course, from there you end up with a whole lot of people to kill.

Will keep fingers crossed for a favorable result.

Not surprised about that....still have those spooky bangs during the broadcast in my head...now that i know what those were...

I do hope you're keeping in constant touch with your local apothecary and not just relying on your in-built resilience. Remember that only Astartes have extra backups of everything. And Krogan. You are not a 200 kg frog turtle are you?
Sing her Happy Birthday (now that Warner doesn't own it anymore) from me. I do hope you had ice cream cake, that's the bestest cake there is.

Morning Crow...
Well at least i'll be having some distraction soon because i've to work...

Too bad the only politicians who would really do something are also extremists here... :-( I wouldn't want to have those as a government, even for a peaceful world... (most of) their ideas are total crap.

Any religion based on superiority, any religion that wants to tell you how to live your life, and what a piece of shit you are if you don't follow every rule to the letter, any religion that tries the invisible person carrot/stick routine of eternal bliss for blind devotion and eternal damnation for independent thought?
Total garbage, a multi-headed hydra virus for the mind, ground in over thousands of years by the power-maddened, the obscenely full of shit, and the pathetically, psychotically zealous.

Of course there are. Everything from rape, to mass murder, to torture, to slavery, it's all acceptable once you take your mind out of the picture and just follow.

Sadly there is nothing my apothecary can do. And you do know we Battle Sisters are much tougher than the Astartes? We did best them during a certain siege and fight them to a standstill. They only won due to the intervention of the Emperor himself, ending in the death of a great traitor. :-)

But sadly my condition is at such a stage that there is no longer anything really that can be done. It is all down to my body repairing itself, which would be hard enough as it is, but after twice nearly dying these last few months that has put so much stress on my body that is is difficult. I am still pretty sure I will beat the doctors guess of me not making it to Christmas, so no need to worry if things carry on.

Thank you. No ice cream, but a lovely home made cake. It was not perfect, but then I am not a professional baker.

I agree... I hope Karen won't be ill, or that she won't start to sing JJG's songs on the other hand !
