    If I ever make a flying video, that'll be the soundtrack. rgmwa

    Vote Bex for PM!

    I admit I may have misjudged him based on initial suspicions, but now that you mention it, I wouldn't be at all surprised if it was JC travelling incognito. There must be a good 5,000 in that crowd, so a couple of fish certainly wouldn't go astray. Wouldn't even surprise me if he's carrying a camp oven in that bag to knock up a bit of damper to go with the fish. rgmwa

    ... and the bloke in the green shirt on the left has brought his weaponry with him. rgmwa

    Is it called a holy document because it's full of holes, or is that just a coincidence? rgmwa

    Yes, I can remember that too, although in my case it was our primary school nuns telling us to tell our parents to vote DLP because they would look after the Catholics. We didn't even know what voting was, much less who/what the DLP were. Some of the nuns would have looked better if they'd covered up the other half of their faces too, but to be fair, some of them were OK. rgmwa

    Hope the tooth fairy left a decent amount of cash to help with the second mortgage.

    No, the whole problem here Gnu, is that you are arguing from a position of intolerant religious belief, which amounts to much the same thing. rgmwa

    I didn't say there were no problems in this world, Gnu. I said the universe does not have problems. On point three, you're being a bit selective aren't you? Read the whole sentence that you wrote and don't just pick out parts of it. He does not `know' that patterns require intelligence. That may be his opinion, but that's all it is. rgmwa

    1. Good. We should all do that. 2. Wrong, this universe does not have problems. It is evolving quite nicely. 3. He does not `know'. He has an opinion. rgmwa

    Gnu, are you saying your views are not strongly conformist? rgmwa
  12. rgmwa
    I wouldn't call it a very convincing argument, Nev, but certainly a compelling invitation. rgmwa

    The best evidence we have for intelligent life elsewhere in the Universe is that nobody has come to visit us. rgmwa

    ... or you might get 20 elderly virgins. Maybe not such a good deal? rgmwa

    Name that quote

    rgmwa replied to ayavner's topic in Funnies

    Mark Twain?

    That's a bit harsh Marty. Don't forget, she did spend some time in Italy representing this country, so I don't mind if she drops the odd word here and there to show off her new language skills. Makes me feel our tax-payer dollars were well spent. rgmwa

    I'd argue that we don't have the mental capacity to deal with the notion of an eternal `something' either. rgmwa

    My theory is that both believers and non-believers of all persuasions are all headed for the same place when they die. My belief is that belief is irrelevant to the outcome, because I don't think we will have any choice in the matter. In the meantime I'll just do my best to be a decent person. You never know, I might be pleasantly surprised one day, in which case I'll be happy to discard the old theory and move on to a better one. rgmwa

    Trust you to ask the most profoundly difficult questions, Bex. I'll be awake all night tonight now. Does anybody know what an Ark is? rgmwa
  21. rgmwa
    Wouldn't have worked anyway. We would have known it was you, Bex. rgmwa

    The French were in it as well. They landed on the east side of Bosphorus opposite the Gallipoli Peninsula. (No they didn't get lost - it was a diversionary attack). rgmwa

    That's true DG, but don't forget that we were on the Turks' territory. They fought well against us and experienced the same horrors. The Anzacs had a good deal of respect for their skill and bravery, and no doubt the Turkish soldiers were just as reliant on their mates as ours were. Kemal Ataturk later made a very magnanimous speech recognising the Anzac soldiers, that perhaps not many other leaders would have done. rgmwa

    Just read the `Battle for Lone Pine' by David Cameron. What a horrific waste of life on both sides - hand to hand fighting for days in trenches and tunnels over a tiny patch of ground that wasn't any use to anyone at the end of the day. The Lone Pine Cemetery is located in the middle of the old battlefield. rgmwa
