So are we suggesting that Jesus was in fact Bangladeshi?

Or his dad was?

Or what the f**k are you two arguing about now?

I would personally suggest that judging from all the pictures I've seen of Jesus,

His dad was probably of Northern European or Scandinavian origin.

Read and weep.

What you mention as well mharman, is probably way too niche for a lot of people.

So beforehand, can you be sure to provide a list of what mharman mentions as well?

Probably not advantageous, because they would probably already be doing it.......As their marketeers are undoubtedly a whole lot cleverer than you.

And as Intel said.....One sells things for a price or gives away for free.

I think that the "desired consumer" for your ideas, probably falls within the 5 to 10 age range.

Just an observation.

And some smack head named Abe, went up a mountain got as high as a kite and a tad over-imaginative.....And amazingly, also did a quick bit of chiselling.

So consequently an awful lot of people have been living in cloud cuckoo land ever since.

Teach your kids non-sense and they will grow up believing in non-sense.....Same the World over.

The mask is designed to reduce the spread of the virus.

The virus is transmitted on airborne mucus particles, sneezed or coughed out by an infected person.

The mask will prevent the spread of such airborne particles, and in doing so will prevent the spread of the virus, from the infected person.

It's pretty simple stuff.

Some uninformed or misinformed people, seem to think that the virus particles can crawl out  through the mask and ambush unsuspecting victims.

D'oh!

That's all you needed to say.

Debunks most, if not all religions.

Chiefly vanity as I suggested, and as I will suggest again.

I doubt that many people seriously consider serious theory.

And gullible numpties are easily persuaded by any sweet talking bullshitter.

And one can choose to drink or not, in a bar with a vain, dictatorial bartender in charge.

I expect that other bars were available.

Though if serious theory were to be believed, then it was perhaps wiser not to gather in crowded bars.

And the wise probably didn't, and the less wise probably did.

And hate is a powerful emotion, and not really applicable when considering whether to wear a protective mask or not.

I must agree that the invasion of Iraq with it's phoney pretext, was nothing more than an oil based, soft target war.

And the insidious Bush Blair bromance is worthy of condemnation.

As is the constant meddling in and destabilising of, deliberately misunderstood Middle Eastern and North African regimes.

If you wanna crusade against tyranny and injustice then why not invade Israel too. Etc.

And the trouble with religion is:

That there are always hypocrites who consider themselves self righteous enough, to make up and impose this sort of vindictive bullshit.

You must believe in my GOD.

And you must do as I say GOD says.

Because I am better than you.

Because I say my GOD says so.

But don't feel compelled to moderate votes if your mates start whinging.

Otherwise there is no point in voting.

Well stated.

Sound common sense.

I agree.

Group and Think.

A very simple compound word.

I understand that.

I was merely suggesting that De Santis is too right wing and unappealing to the moderate public.

In a two party system it's not the died in the wool voter that the GOP needs to appeal too.

Well, most religions lack a provable Godhead. 

Though all religions are true, in as much as they are recognisable data constructs, and cannot be denied as such.

Islam is just a derivation of Christianity......Both being founded upon the same unprovable Abrahamic Godhead.

Artisan buns,

Artisan bakery

Come  nailed to a post.

Not mass produced fakery.

Or contaminated cakery.

What's at stake here,

Easter in January,

And February,

And March,

Then an April date actually.

 

And just like the risen hot crossy,

The Lord our saviour,

Turns out to be Aussie.

Didn't think you were Yankee,

Far too crankee.

Thankee.

Perth or Sydnee?

Or wherever,

Matilda.

Keep on waltzing.

Regards.

Zedee.

Do you not think that De Santis will continue to alienate the moderate voter?

After all, it is the moderate centre that decides elections.

Or do you think that Far Right candidates, will prove more attractive next time?

Or are there just no moderate Republicans available.

Does the average Joe or Jodie or gender neutral, only worry about guns and abortion?

Baby Jesus.

Export, import tariffs?

Would look good with my other garden gnomes.

Pronounced nomes.

Ok.

So I will concede that it is perhaps unreasonable of me to expect that your English syntax and punctuation should be perfect.

But I'm still far from certain that I understand your question.

Though I would suggest that  not wearing a mask maybe more of a vanity issue, rather than being based upon any real application of scientific understanding.

Stupidity rather than irony.

Did you never listen to your mum or dad, or your teachers, or your schoolfriends?

Have you always existed in a soundproof bubble,

And magically acquired all your internalised data?

What defines a "false" religion?

Other than personal bias.

How does one either wear a mask or not, either ironically or unironically?

Can one also wear ones shoes with irony?

Or perhaps unironically go bare foot.

Not to Poly's discussion.

Humans are inherently selfish,

They want what they want.

Altruism is a rare thing indeed.

And the ability to be selectively moral is simply a response to conditioned sensibilities.

And you perhaps lack the "capacity" to understand this.

Maybe you weren't invested with such "capacity".

We all have to succumb to group think beliefs,

Which shapes and limits our "capacity".

State is as State does.

And in a two party State,

One's conditioned capacity is relative to one or the other, or neither.

And the options are quite stark.

Oppression or tolerance.

All with the capacity to be selectively moral.

There's no obvious high ground.

Reading too much philosophy.

Will corrupt the purity of your thoughts.

And philosophy tends to be, either common sense, or philosophy for philosophies sake.

Pro Life,

Selective morality,

As ever.

LOL.

Not as new as you.

Though I blame technology.

Everyone's a potential terrorist.

Though some might have more potential than others.

The U.S.A. was founded on killing innocent people.

The U.S.A has been exporting ideological murder abroad for years. 

Republican and Democrat alike.

What's new Wylted?

And was that,

Shit Nazi's,

Or,

Shit!

Nazi's.

Or were they using shit for fuel.

I think that the Shit Nazi's thing,

Was overegging the custard somewhat.

Too right Stephen.

Though the U.S. has been exporting it's own brand of self righteous terror eastwards ever since WW2.

One persons  freedom fighter is another persons terrorist, and vice versa......As it were.

And who's to blame?

Well them of course.

Black pudding,

Yum Yum.

Sizzling sausages,

Full tum.

Liver and lung,

And cheek and gall,

Herbs and spices,

Faggots all.

Broccoli and kale,

Yum Yum

Carrots and beans,

Full tum

Lentils and peppers,

And Nuts and fungi

Herbs and spices,

You'll never go hungry.

Yoghurt and milk,

And sugar and spice

Fruit and honey

And all things nice.

Eat sensibly,

And exercise regularly,

And food means death,

No matter how respectfully.

The wonder of technology.

Good statement.

Societies learn what societies are taught,

And the curriculum varies little.

And wise people tend to go unheard,

In their thoughtful caves.

Certainly.

@Tarik.

Resistance is futile,

So they say.

Whereas,

Arguments,

Especially theo-philosophical arguments,

Tend to be ongoing.

Great philospeaking.

We're all Kant's, are we not?

To put it bluntly.

Think isolated,

Be isolated.

But technology had already isolated teens.

And media bullshit tried to turn us all into victims.

And the gullible love media bullshit.

Hey kids, this is the era of the great viral angst,

You shall be the mentally disturbed generation.

Yeah......We are the mentally disturbed generation,

Oh great GOD of the device.

 

Silly to blame Covid.

Short sighted observation perhaps.

But if that's what the device told you to think.

Who am I to argue?

Covid made no difference to my life whatsoever.

Just the same old same old,

Day to day routines.

I am not conditioned to bow,

To the Lord of the screen.

Religion hey.

It's f**king brilliant.

Perhaps we should all start wearing an eyepatch.

If they make us look that cool.

Marketing opportunity perhaps.

The Crenshaw eyepatch, visiting and eBay near you soon.

A tricorn hat and a tailcoat would certainly complete the look.

And perhaps a cutlass and a parrot too.

Maybe so Doc.

But maybe the social suppression of inherent sexuality has a lot to answer for.

The evolution of our species has thrown up all sorts of weird and wonderful stuff.

Belief in the supernatural for example.

So unless you or I can explain EVERYTHING,

Then the need for porn and religion, seemingly is a necessity.

@Tarik. The Semanticist.

Believe and acceptance is an ongoing conflation.

You yourself conflate both all the time.

Seems to boil down to acceptance either with or without proof.

As such, belief is generally an indeterminate word.

Though a usefully indeterminate word, that allows for acceptance without proof.

Such is the nature of language....We generate concepts and then label them.

OK.

Should drop the pirates outfit.

Just makes him look a dickhead.

Debate-art or playroom?

Surely there are play sites for playing games.

Please note that this was Russia.

When did you conduct this research Poly?

Or is this just a subjective opinion?

Same old,

Same old,

I don't trust you,

And I don't trust you,

But I am righteous,

But I am righteous too.

And we are also righteous,

And so are we,

And us,

And don't forget us,

Nor us.

Is anyone listening?

Nope.

Funny that,

We've learned how to make smartphones,

And instantly communicate with the rest of the planet.

But never learned how to make friends with the rest of the planet.

And we,

That's you,

And me.

But to be fair, the nature of government dictates that it doesn't matter how a government performs, the populace is never content and the media is always trying to undermine public confidence.

It's all a big game, that lasts several years and then we get to play at voting again......And then within a month or so we're bored with the new lot.

And the reason we get bored is because in the day to day scheme of things, everything stays the same.

At the moment if one believes the media, the future of the British Government all rests upon a christmas drinks get together....Such are the urgent issues that affect the Nation and the Planet.

Strict and principled.

Contradictory kink badgeman

See, moderation.

Here in the U.K, we seem to have concluded that it's now time to implement the what the fuck option, with regular non-mandatory vaccination.

Can't piss about forever.

And if the sick and the elderly cop it once in a while......That's actually how it's meant to be.
