Not sure about the hummus.
Lebanon set a record for the largest plate of hummus Saturday in the continuing gastronomic war with Israel over the regional delicacy.

The only way to deal with people like you is to be an even bigger asshole.
And because I’m smarter than you, I will always win.
On the other hand, if you want to be civil, then you’ll probably find that I will comment less often.
Win win.

You want to worship a ton of gods, but not be reincarnated? Surely the best thing about religion is the potential of reincarnation. Having lots of gods to remember with no downstream benefit seems irrational.
As for me, if I was just a bit richer I’d be a Scientologist.

Scott Chris, I think that what Manolo is trying to say may be that you’ve been making love to your right-hand in recent months if you hadn’t scored a transvestite in K’Rd for christmas. I can take you to my trannie cuz in South Auckland if you wish so that you can break the drought weather.

Just as you just did you fool.
So there is no irony here. I may be acting like an asshole within the context of my exchange with manolo and you, but I am primarily interested in reasoned debate and tolerance. Simple.
Funny how intolerant righties get all sniffy when someone gives them a dose of their own medicine. Now *that’s* ironic.

Blair M says:- “atheism is literally a dead end.”
They all are Blair. When you die, you die. You only live on in the memories of those left behind and in the consequences of your actions when you were alive.
So in effect, we are all immortal because we are all part of the existential continuum. But that’s all. Your consciousness dies with your brain. There is no such thing as a soul.

Disappointingly low on the questions that really matter:

Scott – “Funny how intolerant righties get all sniffy when someone gives them a dose of their own medicine. Now *that’s* ironic.”
Its not just a “rightie” trait Scott – go have a look at the “STANDARD” I got threatened with a ban for criticising someone that “Wished the Mad Butcher would hurry up and die” He was allowed to get away with it. So intolerence and hypocrisy abounds amongst “Lefties” as well.
Ive actually only got one New Years resolution this year – and thats to stay away from the Standard alltogether – to much negativity and intolerence over there. At least here you can get some reasoned debate.
Although I do also promise to be more tolerent of people who believe in the mystical fella in the sky who has control over everything as well. I will never agree with them though.

I take you’re point. Intolerance is a human trait which is not confined to the right. One should really use the word ‘illiberal’.
Vote:January 6th, 2012 at 11:51 am
iMP: if we’re having a chart that has murders by category, we’d presumably need to include murders by religions as one of the groupings – I seem to remember a number of religions being particularly bloodthirsty at points in time.
Which is a polite way of pointing out that your religious blinkers are getting in the way of having a laugh.

The irony here is that a “worldview flowchart” for people who claim they are not ‘religious’ would not only be more complex, it’d probably be more silly. I’d also venture that it would be mapped out by what is popular and trendy, not by what is reasonable and cogent.
But hey, mocking ‘religious’ people in funny; I mock atheists and Green Party members all the time.

Scott Chris, there is an Island night club along K’Rd called Scorpion and some of the Island chicks there love white guys (no kidding). Every time I go there I see white guys taking off with good looking Island chicks. I’m sure if you go there then there’s no doubt you’ll score. Sometimes I get irritated in buying drinks to a chick I’m attracted to whenever I go to Scorpion only to find out a white guy just walked in and asked the chick I’m chatting to at the bar to go dancing. After 2 or 3 songs, then the white guy took off with the chick. Well, it meant that I have to re-target my radar on a different chick.
Just a warning, be careful as there are 2 sometimes 3 regular island trannies there which I’ve once seen a white guy kissing passionately with one of them. He was kissing a very good looking female as he thought but actually she wasn’t. I warned the guy not to kiss her or buy her anymore drinks as she is a he. Everyone knows those 3 regular trannies, but they target new faces in that club and usually meant the white guys who got lost in K’Rd and entered Scorpion bar perhaps by mistake. So, be careful if a good looking trannie chic is approaching you over there if you decide to go hunting in Scorpion bar at some nights.

And that attitude shows, ladies and gentlemen, why there will never be world peace.

Thing is, you’re boxing too, just in your own way. I disagree with your assertion that we will never achieve world peace if we choose to retaliate. Difference between my retaliatory policy and Israel’s, for instance, is that I respond proportionately, not disproportionately, but those who may be a little robust in their debating style I’ll generally treat with respect.
As for the vandals. Well, I tried reasoning with them, then ignoring them, but now I find a surgical counter-strike to be the best method of preserving my virtual liberty.

From what I understand from those people who are way more better and righteous than me, God (allegedly in his own words) murdered millions in his book ( Volume’s One and Two), whereas Satin is directly attributed to none, only implied, but nothing proven.
