  1. I never said it wasn't. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink. (I never heard of you either!!) AA #2069 ASA#33 POPS#8808 Swooo 1717
  2. Yeah, but the black community would have nothing to gain by capping Obama Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink. (I never heard of you either!!) AA #2069 ASA#33 POPS#8808 Swooo 1717
  3. I would suspect a white male. That is the typical profile of an assasin in the U.S.. If it were any other, I'd be very surprised. I'd never underestimate what a motivated lone gunman would/could do. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink.

  4. American racism simmers just below the surface that we present to the rest of the world. We are, generally, less overt about it that when I was growing up, but racial discrimination is still very much alive and well. Not too long before I was born it was common to see signs outside of employers that said "No (insert undesired gruop here) need apply." Realtors and bankers had a practice of redlining certain areas based on racial make up of thise who lived there. Undesired races were systematicaly barred from higher, orin some cases primary, education. In the county my parents moved us to (Prince Georges, out of Washington D.C.) the schools were segregated by race and those of the undesired race were dramtically underfunded. (this was an open secret my parents used to talk about at the table.) These are just a few of the examples I saw growig up. Today, we have put on a clean face to the rest of the world yet still practice racism covertly. I have, for example, worked in the past with owners of small to mid size companies. Businesses with anywhere from 50 to 250 employees. These guys felt safe with me, mostly because I looked like them, and would say things that they would never dare say outside the confines of a country club. They would say things like "I only hire enough of them (usually blacks or arabs) to meet the quota. Then I keep them just long enough that I don't get in trouble, the I fire them." Or words to that effect. This is just one example of the covert racsim I seen recently. To my mind, covertracsim is much owrse than overt racism because it is much harder to irradicate. We have, on the level of public discourse, come a long way, but have a very long way to go. Think about this: how many minorities do you see at your average drop zone? Does anyone reach out to them? The fact that a guy like Obama is, and can, run for high office is testament ot that. Bu that is tempered by the fact that he requires more security due to more death threats. Personally, everytime I see an Obama rally, I listen with one ear for the shot. I wonder what will happen then. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

  5. For this atheist, the two are seprate questions, but can be answered using the same mehtod. 1. The question of the existence of a god, any god. Answer: There is no evidence that confirms, or even supports the existence of a life form outside the known universe. Thus, the existence of a god is not supported. 2. The origins of the universe are supported by massive amounts of academic and cultural study by numerous individuals, nations and cultures over thousands of years. All of the availble data converges on the same point: the universe had a definite begining in space and time. This is known as the "Big Bang" (originaly the term "Big Bang" was a term of sarcastic derision by a theorician who didn't believe the evidence.). Both of these questions are answered by the same method: evidence evaluation. Weighing the evidence and coming to a conclusion based on the evidence. Some things are supported by evidence, some are not. God has never been supported by evidence. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

  7. We can't pin that label on you. Only you can choose to take the title. BUT from my athiest point of view, you're almost there. Just get rid of the life after death illusion and you'll be home free. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink.

  11. That's some really good fauxtography.
  12. There is no hourly wage high enogh for a good manifester.
  13. Considering the sheer amount of lying and false information that theists (mostly christian theists) propagte about atheists (like the often repeated lie that we are trying to ban all mention of religion in public as repeated by Lawrocket in this thread), anger is, in my mind, a completely rational response.

  15. I look at it like this: She had a front row seat at the job. At the very least she would have learned a great deal of what not to do and how the prowess of poltical enemies works.

  23. The Flinstones were an animated version of the Honeymooners. Once I was told that, I could see it immediately and never looked at the Flinstones the same way.
