RonD1120 62 #3 April 8, 2011 Quote I see that church has really enlightened you Some that is true. Also, I have been enlightened by the military, other veterans, sport parachutists, university professors, psychiatrists, astrologers, mental health counselors, alcoholics and others with substance use disorder, neighbors, national catastrophes, world events, TV, NPR, the Holy Bible, to name a few, but, above all personal experience. What flips your skirt?Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

dmkellett 0 #6 April 8, 2011 Roni, we may have completely opposed views on religion / creation / almost everything.... BUT Pat Condell is my hero. He is what many of us believe the majority of the population are starting to think / believe. My question to you is : Have you listened to all his podcasts ? I really dont think you would like him if you had. He doesn't have much positive to say about your or anyone else's religion. I urge all to go and subscribe to him in Itunes though. Especially all the atheists. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dmkellett 0 #9 April 9, 2011 oh my god " Ignorant bigotted perspective ! " have you seen the catholic church over the last 2 thousand years? there isn't a more ignorant bigotted perspective on earth ! ( well maybe the muslims are equally as bad..) Old Pat is just from a part of the world that has almost rid itself of bullshit neolithic fairytales.

Go tell someone who gives a bloddy shite...I'm not Catholic....and though I strongly disagree with Catholic leadership, there are many Catholics who are some of the best people I know who mind their own business and don't have narcissistic delusions of grandeur and spit their ignorant stereotypical bollocks on podcasts like your buddy for no purpose other than to serve as a massive display of self congratulatory pomposity by stroking his own ego with the broad brush. Quote He is a light shining in a world Old Pat is just another Old Fart...what a great leader you worship in the world of "free thinking" atheists. ...gimme a break.You're lying to yourself if you think this guy is helping anything....he's just an entertaining shit-stirrer that is only causing more contention. This guy is a dime a dozen and it's getting old quick. It's only a matter of time bfeore their verbal flatus fizzles out. Anybody can spit shit and make it sound legit, but it's those who actually care about people who win over hearts... Quote a world veiled by suffering and intolerance caused by beliefs like yours. We've already discovered that you have absolutely no clue as to what I believe. Try not to get so angry and personal...it's bad form.Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

RonD1120 62 #15 April 10, 2011 Quote Quote his superior quick lipped linguistic bullshit.... He's a lawyer? I guess I need to remember that Condell is an entertainer. However, Islamic Muslim bashing has its positive side. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pat_Condell Patrick Condell (born November 23, 1949) is a British writer, comedian, and atheist internet personality. He performed alternative comedy shows during the 1980s and 1990s in the United Kingdom, and won a Time Out Comedy Award in 1991. He was also a regular panellist on BBC Radio 1's "Loose Talk". From early 2007, he began posting short monologues denouncing religion to a number of video sharing websites. His videos have been featured on many websites, including YouTube and LiveLeak. They have also been published to DVD, and also as a book of video transcripts. As of February 2011, Pat Condell's YouTube channel has over 148,000 subscribers and 30.8 million views. In a video titled "Vote small, think big" Pat Condell apparently seemed to express support for the UK Independence Party[4]Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.
