  1. I am not sure which generalization you are putting me in, but according to that movie Adrenaline Rush most risk takers have issues with authority. I don't think that I personally have any problems with authority figures. I am not sure what that could possibly have to do with the current topic.
  2. sounds more like excuses for their own troubles. It's always nice to be able to find someone else to blame for your problems.
  3. yeah kinda silly isn't it. Gods were created by men to explain what they didn't understand. Religion was created by men to use the concept of God to control other men and make lots of money.
  4. I think it is all pretty silly. To think that there is some mysterious God out there that this group of people wrote about and claiming in their writing to be "The Chosen People" of this God. Seems awfully convienent for the Jews. If I wrote my own book claiming to be God I think it would just as valid as the Bible.
  5. Sorry but I don't believe the Bible was written by God and I think you are full of shit.
  6. ahh guess I will have to write my one book that says all half Mexican and Caucasions are God's chosen people and claim that God inspired me to write this. Will that work?
  7. I consider it a joke for anyone think so highly of any nationality. It's pretty pathetic if you ask me. it sounds awfully similar to the Nazis saying that Germans are the "Master Race"
  8. really as if any other country doesn't just care for their own and not anyone else. The US isn't unique in that respect. Try going to Mexico and expect to be treated equally along with a Mexican citizen, or any other nation in the world.
  9. I think those are only partial reasons. I think the main reason is to spread Islam. If the US did what they ask and get out of Arab lands and end all support for Isreal it would only fuel their movement to dominate more and more countries. Eventually there would be WWIII. Muslims against everyone else. I also don't think this has anything to do with who the President is. Even if Kerry were President it wouldn't stop this Islamic Jihad.
  10. actually I wouldn't want to jump with any knot on my brake lines. That was the first knot that came to mind. I also don't have any interest in adjusting the brake settings. I only know of one person that did mess with the brake settings and all I have to say is be very prepared to cut away. It most likely will be come necessary.
  11. Bullshit The terrorists hate us because they are fighting a religous war against Christianity and the US is predominately Christian and the biggest dog on block. Their goal is to spread Islam.
  12. The US has never had that "White Hat" from the begining.
  13. Don't bother with the TN tunnel. That would not do you much good. It isn't a Skyventure tunnel and is very hard to fly in. At least that is my opinion.
  14. A butterfly knot would work. http://www.abc-of-rockclimbing.com/howto/learnclimbingsingleknots.asp
  15. Nope that has never happened to me. I have never bounced a check
  16. I KNEW there was something wrong with you!
  17. Most Christians don't aknowledge how much influence Constantine had over Christianity and the Bible. They prefer to believe that God wrote the bible.
  18. BULLSHIT they can sure as hell not spread it. If you don't know you have AIDS then you don't know that you are spreading it around. Even if you wear a condom your partner at the least deserves to know what risk he or she is taking.
  19. Keep praying for all us sinners. Christianity has be expecting the end of the world any minute now for the last 2 thousand years. Keep waiting. I for one am not going to hold my breath.
  20. there is probably a FAR requiring that FARs be as ambiguious as possible.
  21. How much would it cost to get just the chin cup? I have the old version.
  22. Gods were made up by people trying to explain what they didn't understand. They less they understood the more God or Gods had a hand in their lives. People in general don't feel comfortable not being able to explain things around them. Especially questions like what happens when I die, or why do bad things happen to good people. Reality is that no one really knows the answer to those questions. No one has ever come back from the dead to tell us what happens. Bad things happen to good people just like good things happen to bad people, it's nothing personal. Being a good person doesn't exclude you from ever having something bad happening to you. That is part of the human experience. Life is how you react to it.
  23. He did help with the crime. He was training and working towards being one of the hijackers. He knew what was going to happen and didn't say anything. If someone knew that your mother was going to be shot in the head and killed by a specific person, you would't hold him responsible if he didn't say anything or do anything to prevent it?
