I raised the subject here of political correctness recently. One of the items discussed was the banning of my favorite, dodge ball, from some schools.

New item: Just got a phone call from a guy I work for. He has children in the public school system in Scarsdale, N.Y. He reports that as of today, at high school sporting events in Scarsdale, booing by spectators has been prohibited.

Just thought i'd mention it.

"Your vituperative spittle" That was covered in chapter four, "Use big words to cover up the fact that you've run out of arguments"
Better run out and start a new thread, call it, "should gob be replaced? more at 11"

"You know that X has you on ignore, but you still use this forum for throwing your poo about like a little boy. You ought to be damn ashamed of yourself, little fella"

I was not told Xplicitly that I was on ignore by X, but who cares? I once told her I would no longer reply to her and she kept on posting to me anyway, Was she ashamed? Not on your life. No Gloves means No Gloves, although I realize that you, just read whatever meaning happens to suit you at the moment, into these things. If she can't stand the heat tell her to take her head out of the oven!


"From the first, your "arguments" were insincere because only one of us was seeking Truth."

How omniscient of you. I'm not surprised though since you also know the thoughts and motives of people you've never met, and lived thousands of years ago.

"You believe that the bible is Truth and absolutely inerrant. You have said so. So your discussion with me has never been genuine."

So you believe that anyone that comes here to discuss any topic must automatically assume they are wrong and you are right, or they are not genuine? Do you realize how stupid that makes you look? You believe the opposite of my position to be true, does that disqualify you or somehow de-legitimize your motives? Why should you receive the benefit of the doubt when you deny it to others?

Last time I checked X was a big girl, I pointed out that her philosophy could not say that any action was objectively wrong. Then I pointed out that pedophiles would have to be included in that, since child abuse is an action. She had, and still has, no answer to that so I went on ignore. Too bad. BTW I have posed the same question to you and all I get is out of context scripture passages thrown out like the ink from an octopus. You have no answer, because it would show the glaring weakness in your own position.

Not exactly a waiting list for the island is there? What if Solon built a cult and nobody came?
Whatever happened to Jonestown? Could it be that the same fate awaits Losertown? Here's a song for you.

"Loser park in the rain" sung to, well, you know the song

"I don't think that you could take it,
cause it took Solon to make it,
and you'll never have,
that recipe
AGAIN,
OH NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"
